I did not see S:P becoming a budget card so quickly. Guess that makes this a $30 deck!

EVERY CARD MENTIONED: duelingbook.com/deck?id=16623823 - Start here if building your deck from scratch. Pick what interests you and add your favorite staples. The deck can be whatever size you like because of the many searchers. The same spells can be used for either aggressive turbo plays or defensive plays, so what matters most is how you play the cards you've drawn.

There is of course more to Advanced Crystal Beasts than I could possibly cover here. You can check out my Master Duel streams for commentated duels in which I explain every play (and then hit the time limit and get really upset).

Quick Advanced Crystal Beast rulings:
- Advanced Crystal Beasts sending themselves to the graveyard is a continuous effect, which applies only if they are in monster form.
- A summoned Advanced Sapphire will be sent to the graveyard without being able to trigger its effect.
- You can activate Advanced Ruby's summon effect even if Advanced Dark is not in play.
- They will not be sent if they're being negated by CB Rainbow Dragon, Skill Drain, etc.
