First Ability:

The first ability of Harmonics Messiah (V Series) prepares the deck’s strategy. Harmonics Messiah (V Series) searchers the deck for one card, and locks it on the field. This locked card will become available in a few moments. It is a unique method to gain a rear-guard.

Therefore, first ability sets up the second ability. Harmonics Messiah (V Series) unlocks this card after battle. You gain an attacker for an additional battle.

In addition, the best cards for this ability are grade two units. You should place and lock a grade two unit from the deck. Then, this unit will be able to battle the opponent’s units during the same battle phase.

Furthermore, you may place this locked card on a rear-guard circle with the Imaginary Gift: Force I. This strategy ensures the rear-guard gains 10,000 power from the Imaginary Gift. It can hit the opposing vanguard in battle.

Second Ability:

Harmonics Messiah (V Series) unlocks any number of any players’ locked units. In addition, two of your rear-guards in the front row gain 15,000 power. This ability unlocks and stands your rear-guards. 

Therefore, Harmonics Messiah (V Series) enables multiple battles per turn. Your units stand after you unlock them. They can attack the opponent during this current battle phase.

Furthermore, the rear-guards in the front row will pressure the opponent. They benefit from the additional 15,000 power. The opponent may commit many cards to stop your wave of attacks from Link Joker.

In addition, Harmonics Messiah (V Series) requires a great supporting cast. This unit wants cards with the ability to lock themselves. The ideal strategy is unlocking all rear-guards in the left and right columns. You will have two rear-guards in the front row, and the rear-guards in the back row may provide a boost.

Support:

Harmonics Messiah (V Series) has stellar support from Link Joker. The clan has many cards with abilities when you unlock them or they may lock themselves. You can create powerful combos during the main phase and battle phase.

Harmonics Messiah (V Series) needs assistance from its rear-guards. Lady Battler of the Gravity Well (V Series) and Lady Fencer of Matter Transmission are great rear-guards for this vanguard. They enable the deck’s strategy.

For instance, Lady Fencer of Matter Transmission and Harmonics Messiah (V Series) are a dynamic. Lady Fencer of Matter Transmission gains 5,000 power and locks herself after battle. Harmonics Messiah (V Series) may unlock and stand this rear-guard for an additional attack.

Remarkable Burst Monk is a unique card for Harmonics Messiah (V). This grade two unit can stand this vanguard for a second attack. The grade two unit’s ability has a low probability. He is not a consistent option for a second battle with Harmonics Messiah (V).
