| abstract | - An Exodia Deck relies upon helping you to:
* Either obtain all 5 pieces of "Exodia the Forbidden One" to declare an instant win;
* Send all pieces of "Exodia the Forbidden One" to the Graveyard so that "Exodia Necross" can be summoned; or
* Summon "Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord" and use its effect to send all 5 pieces of "Exodia the Forbidden One" to the Graveyard to declare an instant win. This option can be used with cards such as "Deep Diver" and "Emissary of the Afterlife" to add the pieces to your hand (to quickly do that is to have a "Torrential Tribute" when you Summon one of them). Deck thinning monsters such as "Mystic Tomato" can allow you to thin your deck and Special Summon monsters such as "Sangan". "Legacy of Yata-Garasu" and "Jar of Greed" provide deck thinning. "Monster Reincarnation", "Dark Factory of Mass Production" and "Dark Eruption" can be used to retrieve pieces from the Graveyard. "Gold Sarcophagus" can be used to bring the Exodia head from your deck to your hand. "One Day of Peace", "Messenger of Peace", "Threatening Roar", "Waboku", "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow", "Dimensional Prison", "Mirror Force", "Zero Gardna", "Battle Fader", "Spirit Reaper", "Arcana Force 0 - The Fool", and "Marshmallon" can be used to stall while you gather the pieces. "Defense Draw" not only stalls but gives you draw power. Recruiter monsters, such as "Bubonic Vermin" and "Troop Dragon" can both stall and thin the deck.
