Maelstrom Has Return with Best Supports!

As soon as I saw the new booster for "Maelstrom" came out, I start to figure the new set of Aqua Force, which means new Aqua Force "Maelstrom" deck.

Let's study back what Maelstrom can really do. We are first introduce by Blue Storm Dragon, Maelstrom.

Blue Storm Dragon, Maelstrom
[AUTO](VC) Limit Break 4 (This ability is active if you have four or more damage):When this unit attacks a vanguard, if it is the fourth battle of that turn or more, until end of that battle, this unit gets [Power]+5000 and "[AUTO](VC):[Counter Blast (1)] When this unit's attack hits, you may pay the cost. If you do, draw a card, choose one of your opponent's rear-guards, and retire it.".
[CONT](VC/RC):If you have a non-«Aqua Force» vanguard or rear-guard, this unit gets [Power]-2000.

Then we were introduced by Cross Ride, Blue Storm Supreme Dragon, Glory Maelstrom.

[AUTO](VC) Limit Break 5 (This ability is active if you have five or more damage):[Counter Blast (1)] When this unit attacks a vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, until end of that battle, this unit gets [Power]+5000, and your opponent cannot call grade 1 or greater units to (GC) from his or her hand.
[CONT](VC):If you have a card named "Blue Storm Dragon, Maelstrom" in your soul, this unit gets [Power]+2000.
[CONT](VC/RC): Lord (If you have a unit without a same clan as this unit, this unit cannot attack)

And lastly another Cross Ride, Blue Storm Karma Dragon, Maelstrom "Яeverse".

[AUTO](VC) Limit Break 4 (This ability is active if you have four or more damage):[Counter Blast (1) & Choose one of your rear-guards, [Rest] it, and lock it] When this unit attacks a vanguard, if it is the fourth battle of that turn or more, you may pay the cost. If you do, until end of that battle, this unit gets [Power]+5000/[Critical]+1 and "[AUTO](VC): At the end of the battle that this unit attacked, if the attack did not hit during that battle, draw a card, choose one of your opponent's rear-guards, and retire it.".
(The locked card is turned face down, and cannot do anything. It turns face up at the end of the owner's turn.)
[CONT](VC): If you have a card named "Blue Storm Dragon, Maelstrom" in your soul, this unit gets [Power]+2000.
[CONT](VC/RC): Lord (If you have a unit without a same clan as this unit, this unit cannot attack)

Or maybe a new Legion unit soon enough will release for Maelstrom. So here is the new unit for "Maelstrom" supports.

Blue Storm Marine General, Despina
[AUTO](RC):When this unit boosts a vanguard with "Maelstrom" in its card name, if it is the fourth battle of that turn or more, until end of that battle, your opponent cannot call grade 0 card from hand to (GC), at the end of that battle, return this unit to your deck, and shuffle your deck.

Blue Storm Soldier, Rascal Sweeper
[AUTO](RC):When this unit attacks, if you have a vanguard with "Maelstrom" in its card name, this unit gets [Power]+2000 until end of that battle.
[AUTO](RC):At the end of the battle that this unit attacked a vanguard, if you have a vanguard with "Maelstrom" in its card name, and if it is the first battle of that turn, choose another of your rear-guards in the same column as this unit, and exchange positions with this unit. (The state of the card does not change)

So you can put all of the 3 units grade 3 in your deck. Maybe can try 4 copies of Maelstrom, 2 Glory and 2 Maelstrom Reverse. It would be more advantage since you can have Cross Ride 13k Power for Maelstrom.

By supporting with Aqua Force G units, you can Stride if you needed to. Also, Blue Storm Cadet, Marios can be a good starter for this deck since the skill require a third attack. You can put at your back rear either left or right, make sure you boost using it on the third attack.

The best part is, if you are boosting Glory Maelstrom with Despina, on Limit Break 5, you opponent cannot guard at all! It would be a great finisher move if you can draw at least 1 Critical Trigger on the twin check!!
