Adventure Engine Analysis

The Adventure Engine has been among the most used engines in recent memory. With a 8 card investment (up to 10), 5 of those cards grant you a spell speed 1 bounce, free level 4 bodies, and repeatable omni-negate (if you play Gryphon), making it strong both on the play and on the draw. In exchange, the Adventure Engine forbids effects of Normal Summoned monsters (Though it does not cut you off of your normal summon entirely). While Ghoti has effective Normal Summons such as Beautunaful Princess, Lifeless Leaffish, and Paces, they are not mission critical and are vulnerable to handtraps. The Adventure Engine enables a different kind of Ghoti build focused on special summoning level 4 extenders and bosses and normal summoning the tuners to make Arionpos. Though its ceiling is high, the consistency leaves something to be desired, and the lines of play it enables can feel clunky.

Impact :

Raise the Ceilling : Extremely high ceiling, offering the deck a coveted omni-negate if you want to
Handtrap Resilient : Resilient to handtraps and interruption, helping the deck go second
Alternative Use : Of the three bricks, Fateful at least gets you to a level 4 body to Synchro with, and Gryphon is a body
Recursive : Grants repeatable advantage, adding Gryphon or Enchantress to hand every turn

Warps Deckbuilding : Cuts you off from more typical starters, making Ghoti plays difficult to turn on
Not Self-Sufficient : Need more level 4 extenders to not Synchro with the token if you use Gryphon, meaning you have to open 3 card combos
Akward Levels : Enchantress and Gryphon can't be used to extend Synchro plays due to their odd levels
Low Flexspots : Leaves very little room for handtraps/board breakers

How does it work ?

Foolish Burial accesses Water Enchantress, and Water Enchantress accesses Rite of Aramesir. Rite of Aramesir summons a Level 4 Token and activates Fateful Adventure from Deck. Now Summon a monster from your hand, triggering Fateful to add Dracoback. Dracoback activates, equipping itself to the Token. Continue your plays from there.

Gryphon line : Activate the other effect of Fateful, adding Gryphon Rider and sending Dracoback. Dracoback activates, equipping itself to the Token. Now summon Gryphon Rider, and the negate is online. Continue your plays from there.

Optional cards

Gryphon : Provide an Omni-negate at the cost of keeping the token on the field, meaning you need more extenders.

Illegal Knight : Useful in side for go 2nd settings he helps to dismantle boards with the bounce.

Starting Hand

Engine + Tuner + Extender

You know the drill

Protect Your Plays

Safely extend with the protection of an omni-negate

There are a few other things you can do with Adventure:

If you only open Fateful, it's still a Level 4 extender, as it can add and discard an Enchantress that can add Rite.
You can also run "Illegal Knight" as a search instead of Gryphon, which provides a handtrap-esque double bounce instead of an omni-negate.
