Something strange has happened to Zorga and the ghost ship Regrain

Chronojet travels across 3.5 Billion Years, to find a chance, a chance to change destiny itself, to awaken a new Messiah.

Genesis Dragon, Excelics Messiah

Power 15000+
[Stride]-Stride Step-[COST][Discard a grade 3 card with “Messiah” in its card name from hand], and [Stride] this card on your (VC) from face down.
[AUTO](VC)[Generation Break 2]:When this unit attacks, [COST][Counter-Blast 1], choose any number of any player’s locked cards, and unlock them. If you unlocked a card, choose the same number of your rear-guards as the number of cards unlocked by this ability,
[Stand] them, and until the end of turn, all of your front row units get [Power]+10000, and this unit gets [Critical]+1.

The official YouTube Channel shows off the two sides of the Messiah strategy!

Teasing Spiritualist, Zorga Masques
Grade 3 / Normal Unit / Stoicheia – Ghost
Power 13000
[CONT]:This card can only be ridden from a grade 3 with “Zorga” in its card name.
[CONT](VC):When you would play a normal order, you can bind a normal order from your drop, and Alchemagic.
[CONT](VC):If you did Alchemagic this turn, all of your front row units get [Power]+10000.
[ACT](VC)[1/turn]:[COST][Remove a card with “Zorga” in its different card name from this unit from your hand, soul, or drop], choose a card from your drop, and call it to (RC) if it is a unit card, or put it into your hand if it is a normal order.

Masque of Hydragrum
Grade 3 / Normal Order / N/A
Look at the top five cards of your deck, choose up to one unit card with “Dragontree” or “Masques” in its card name from among them, reveal it and put it into your hand, and shuffle your deck.
[ACT](Drop):If you have a grade 3 vanguard without “Masques” in its card name, [COST][reveal a grade 3 card with “Masques” in its card name from hand], and ride the card revealed for this cost as [Stand]. If you rode, put this card into the soul, if your opponent’s vanguard is grade 3 or greater, and you did not persona ride this turn, you activate persona ride.

When “Masques of Hydragrum” is in the Drop, you can place it in the Soul when you Ride a “Masques” from the hand.

You can Normal Ride a Masques Unit from the hand onto a non-Masques Unit

No, you cannot Persona Ride by placing a Masques on top of its related Unit

Yes you can use the Normal Order, use its Drop Effect and Ride from the hand in the same time

No, you cannot be clever about cheating out Zorga Masques, even if you use Hydragrum, you still need to ride it on top of a Zorga, nothing else.
