How do you create Armed Samurai - Ben Kei OTK deck?

Cause I heard this was the "annoying OTK" deck back in the days before Cyber-Stein OTK.

I can get the general theory. You clear the foe's field, and then put as much Equip Spell cards as possible with ATK boost for OTK win. So I'm assuming cards like Mage Power, United We Stand, Big Bang Shot, Premature Burial, (If Ben Kei is in the graveyard, it won't do ATK boost, but just the extra Equip for an extra attack is good enough) Axe of Despair, etc.

So, how does this OTK go?
 
You're on the right track. Don't forget Iron Blacksmith Kotetsu, Fusion Sword Murasame Blade, and Wicked-Breaking Flamberge - Baou.

However, without Cyber Jar I really don't see this deck as viable. Cyber Jar was perfect for gettting all those Equips to your hand, then loading up Ben Kei for the all out assault.

It's viable. Remember, Armed Samurai - Ben Kei is a Warrior, PLUS he is 1500 and below, so he is searchable by Sangan and Last Will. So, if you have a couple Iron Blacksmith Kotetsu's and a Exiled Force, combo that with Last Will, and you have a few things that can happen.

All you have to do is have 1 life point remaining to deliver a Ben Kei OTK, so you can take as long as possible to assemble the pieces.
 
Well, although Cyber Jar is banned, there's always Morphing Jar.

BTW, do I really need Fusion Sword Murasame Blade, and Wicked-Breaking Flamberge - Baou? I mean, Murasame is only 800ATK, I mean, UWS and Axe sounds better. (Yeah, it can't be destroyed by Mobius/Breaker/Heavy/MST/etc.) And Baou, do I have to negate the monster effect? I mean, I AM losing 500ATK along with a discard.

But what I'm worring about is, what if my foe have a HUGE monster field presence. (Say I stalled, like Stein OTK decks) I can pump Ben Kei to like 2500+ with like 3-4 Equip after I Heavy/Trunade the field, but still, if my foe got a bunch of high stat monster on the field, it won't be a OTK. And I don't want to throw in Shooting Star Bow - Ceal cause although Ben Kei can attack directly, it loses 1000ATK, and I don't think that'll make it OTK... (Unless I put like 3x Axe and Mage Power on Ben Kei, THEN I don't care if Ceal is on it, it already gained 5500+ATK, dropping just 1000 after that for a monster that can attack directly 6 times doesn't sound that bad) I mean, do I have to resort to some crazy card like Lightning Vortex? (Stein decks don't have to use Lightning Vortex, cause one punch of Cyber End with boost can OTK no matter how many monsters the foe have usually) I guess I can see the power of Cyber Jar in this deck. (I protect Cyber Jar 1 turn, then I flip Jar, bust all monster on the field, and then I draw into Ben Kei + 4 equip spells.... while my foe drew no monsters among his 5.... that's freaking GAME)
 
Okay, then what's better overall, Big Bang Shot? Or Shooting Star Bow - Ceal? If you can pull out a alot of Equip Spells, the Ceal is a game-ender I can see that, but Big Bang Shot have more combo with say Giant Trunade and it doesn't decrease the stats like Ceal so less spell card use overall.
I mean, Ceal, say you pumped up your monster at least 2700ATK+ and can attack 3x+ or more, then Ceal is game. (Say Axe + Mage + Ceal on Ben Kei is game cause it's 2000ATK monster that can attack directly 4 times. That's game)

But Big Bang Shot doesn't decrease it's ATK stat overall you can have less Equip Spell cards then Ceal, and the trample is nice along with combo with Heavy/Trunade to get rid of foe's monster.
But
 
Axe of Despair + Mage Power + Demotion + Opti-camouflage Armour + Fusion Sword Murasame Blade.

And don't forget Buster Rancher to stall while you pull out your other equips.

1 problem: Ben Kei is level 4, not 3. So Demotion gets him to lvl 2, which isn't low enough for Opti-camouflage Armour.
 
Aww phooey... well, even with another Demotion to replace Fusion Sword Murasame Blade, he'd still have 4500 ATK and 6 direct attacks.

Also, I think you could still pull away with an OTK with DNA Transplant and Limitter Removal.
