Hello everyone, this is Ascriptmaster back again with another Cardfight!! Vanguard deck profile, and the first Team Fairy Tail blog post of 2014. This time we're covering a Great Nature deck using Battler of the Twin Brush, Polaris, to fully take advantage of Honorary Professor, Chatnoir's Break Ride abilities.
[AUTO] Limit Break 4 (This ability is active if you have four or more damage): When a «Great Nature» rides this unit, choose your vanguard, and until end of turn, that unit gets [Power]+10000 and [AUTO](VC):When one of your «Great Nature» rear-guards attacks a vanguard, choose one of your «Great Nature» rear-guards, that unit get [Power]+4000 until end of turn, and at the end of that turn, draw a card, and retire that unit.".[AUTO](VC): When this unit attacks a vanguard, this unit gets [Power]+2000 until end of that battle.
[CONT](VC/RC): Lord (If you have a unit without a same clan as this unit, this unit cannot attack.)
[AUTO](VC) Limit Break 4 (This ability is active if you have four or more damage): [Counter Blast (2)] When this unit attacks a vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose another of your «Great Nature» rear-guards, [Stand] it, and that unit gets [Power]+4000 until end of turn, and at the end of that turn, retire that unit.[AUTO](VC):When this unit attacks a vanguard, this unit gets [Power]+3000 until end of that battle.

On the turn that a Great Nature rides Chatnoir, every Rearguard attack on the opponent's Vanguard becomes a free draw at the end of the turn. This means that Polaris' ability to Stand a Rearguard equals an extra draw. Of course, this requires trading in Rearguards as well, but it is possible to minimize the amount of Rearguards lost by focusing as many boosts from Chatnoir on one unit. This being Great Nature, of course, also means that an ideal turn will also involve stacking as many Coiling Duckbill, Tick Tock Flamingo, and Blackboard Parrot skills upon that one unit as possible for more drawing and unflipping the damage spent by Polaris.
Critical Triggers were chosen over Stand Triggers in this deck despite the potential attacks (and draws, when used with Chatnoir) it offers because Stand Triggers can potentially fail to Stand when used after Polaris' Limit Break. As a result, a standard turn with Polaris would commonly involve deciding which unit to boost, then either attacking with it unboosted first to maximize the pressure after the Limit Break, or attacking with the booster and then again unboosted after the Limit Break for two small attacks, applying triggers as necessary. Castanet Donkey is the ideal Draw Trigger for the setup because it can act as an emergency booster that can move away next turn, or give power to the unit you plan to Stand with Polaris' Limit Break.
Pencil Knight, Hammsuke is the best candidate for all the Great Nature boosts (including Polaris'), as its retiring will allow you to search an additional copy to your hand, either for extra defense or for an attacker next turn. Binoculus Tiger also helps to supply power to other Great Nature units. Standing it with Polaris potentially allows it to give even more power to another unit, but the lack of Sea Stamp Otters would mean giving up two Rearguards that turn instead of one that was targetted by both Polaris and Binoculus.
It is worth noting the lack of Grade 1 units that gain effects when retired during the End Phase, such as Washup Raccoon. This is because the nature of Polaris' Limit Break means that boosters are not going to be commonly boosted by the Great Nature effects, unlike other Great Nature decks like Leopald. As such, retirement bonuses from these cards will seldom activate. There is one tech of Soft Tank Sloth, however, to provide a quick unflip that instantly frees up another Polaris Limit Break once. If this tech does not suit you, however, Taping Cat is a viable alternative as a free draw unit when it is called.
