Introduction
Hi everyone,
I have recently joined Brunei’s Gamers Tavern Digimon Tourney with a total of 21 players participating and have won the tournament using one of the poster boys of the Digimon World Beelzemon.
A brief introduction, I have played Beelzemon since its first released back in BT2, always putting at least one BT2 SEC Beelzemon in any of my purple decks. Ups and downs of battles the card just couldn’t fit in the meta, but with the intro of EX2 Beelzemon line and supports, the deck became better with its discard pile strategy trashing from deck, cheating out Impmons and Beelzemons, I have won quite a few tournaments with Beelzemon since then. Although the deck and formulas still felt clunky especially with the ongoing meta till BT11, the deck struggled a lot. It was missing its “X Factor”, missing pieces to make it as scary as the Tier 1 decks like BWG X, Xros and more.
It was a struggle except till the new release of BT12 Beelzemon X Antibody support line. The deck can now properly compete with the existing top decks. Although there were a lot of choices I have decided to go for this build:

Decklist featured on Digimonmeta: Deck Information – DIGIMON CARD META (digimonmeta.com)
Match Results BO1:
1st Game: Jesmon X – Win
2nd Game: Mugendramon – Win
3rd Game: R/B Gaiomon – Win
4th Game: BWG X – Win
5th Game: Wargreymon X – Win
I will not explain to much on how the deck works but will break down my choices from BT12:
Impmon X Antibody

This card one of the good choices, it allows our Beelzemon discard pile after so many trashing from deck to be more of a Box Deck with our trash becoming a more accessible resource.
On play or when digivolving you can trash an option to return 2 of the best choices Wizard or Demonlord, I would usually choose wizard with the choices of returning Wizardmon or Baalmon to keep on what the deck wants to continue, filling up the discard pile. The "inherited effect" of the Impmon also helps us with trashing from deck.

Beelzemon X Antibody
The main hero of the deck that I have chose to focus on. You will only want to focus on the digivolve ability as that is what the deck has evolved into, the ability has allowed the deck to reach all new heights in battling the deck’s worst match ups by trashing away security. With how the we usually trash our cards from deck it is not impossible to reach to at max 30 cards to trash 3 security which is a big hit to opponents.
One of the toughest match ups for the previous Beelzemon deck had to be BWG X, with its midrange defensive strategy preventing destruction. After including Beelzemon X, my strategy against BWG X was to build up my board state, and also try to discard as much cards to hit that one evolution of Beelzemon X to trash most of their security. With that I will eventually finish with one hit of one my digimons.

Also to share one of my favorite combos of the deck:
Calling of the darkness to return Beelzemon X if in trash or any purple choices. Baalmon to revive any of the 2 Beelzemon to field for the Beelzemon X to evolve on. Also to note no one want to delete a Baalmon if they don’t want to see a Beelzemon coming.
To finish up this article, I would definitely recommend players to try out this deck. I will continue to experiment builds to atleast include the EX2 cards in the future. I am very much excited for the new ST Beelzemon that will be released soon!

Why EX2 Beelzemon and not BT10 Beelzemon?
BT10 Beelzemon gives X Antibody an inherited and gets to trash more cards if it's played by Baalmon. If BT10 Baalmon attacks with Impmon x and Wizardmon X he trashes 5 cards plus its own stack if it dies on security, and then 4 more when BT10 Beelze is played which should let you trash more security with X antibodym
I believe it's worth considering at least one or two copies, considering the synergy wirh the on deletion effects of Baalmon.
Hi yes,
Ive actually considered to remove some bt2 beelzemons to add in the BT10 beelzemon.
Why i prefer the ex2 beelzemon is because it always allows me to cheat out impmons for more aggressive approach, especially bt6 impmons to fetch the beelzemon x
