Garuda cannot be hurt at all by Quetzalcoatl and Quick Mediara does runs out of uses, so if you kill Matador and White Rider twice and Garuda is still alive, you are guaranteed to win eventually. Matador is weak to ice and White Rider is weak to Force, the two elements this Garuda can use. (Resist Ice is probably unnecessary, but I use Garuda elsewhere as well.)

Explanation

  • The demons here are all weak to Dark, hence the usage of demons that are Dark magic users. Enemies here tend to heal, and due to Sphinx's Tetra Shift, phys attackers aren't very reliable.
  • Garuda makes this a lot easier due to having Repel Fire and Null Force, both elements that Quetzalcoatl uses. If you don't have it, bringing at least one Null Fire demon (preferably one that can Dark DPS, like Red Tsukuyomi) and one Null Force demon is very useful.
  • Pazuzu is a lot tankier of an option than Feng Huang, and boasts multiple nulls to prevent Sphinx's Mahamaon / Quetzalcoatl's Mazandyne.
  • Other two slots are for Dark DPS.

Mamudo Resist Ice Mudo Mudo
Resist Phys Diarama Dark Boost Mamudo

Dark DPS options include: Alice, Anubis, Beelzebub, Rangda, Black Frost, Kaiwan, Red Tsukuyomi

Healer alternative is Feng Huang or Asherah.

Teal Jikokuten is also a possibility if you have lots of Fire/Wind Drain demons, to force Quetzalcoatl to lose more turns due to Suppress Stance: Drain, but remember that it's a physical attacker.

Divine + at least 1 Ward set for Sarasvati to use Silent Prayer. Red Tsukuyomi can use Life or Spell instead of Divine because Lunar Blessing causes its awakened Mudoon to only cost 3 MP.

  • Garuda is set to Support AI so it will cast Fog Breath. Garuda cannot be hurt at all by Quetzalcoatl and Quick Mediara does runs out of uses, so if you kill Matador and White Rider twice and Garuda is still alive, you are guaranteed to win eventually. Matador is weak to ice and White Rider is weak to Force, the two elements this Garuda can use. (Resist Ice is probably unnecessary, but I use Garuda elsewhere as well.)
    • Brands: Speed, Spell (Mag Atk+%, Speed+)
  • Asherah is also immune to Quetzalcoatl's attack spells, and Mother Creation helps if White Rider manages to inflict an instant kill. Null Mute protects her from Matador's Dark Sword skill; getting muted is a disaster and Ward brands don't always last long enough. Mamudodyne helps kill enemies - every wave has an enemy with a Dark weakness - and usually won't keep her from casting Mediarama.
    • Brands: Heal, Divine (Mag Atk+%, Healing Amount+%)
  • Huang Long is primarily being used for Luster Candy and War Cry rather than Five Elements; the enemies tend to fight defensively and some have attacks that ignore Five Elements completely. Garuda without Speedster isn't enough to raise Battle Speed high enough to beat 23,833, and my Yellow Huang Long was the best speedster I had available.
    • Brands: Ward, Divine
  • Black Frost's Go To Hell skill inflicts piercing Dark damage and also inflicts Curse, hitting a weakness against each wave and limiting the amount of HP that the enemies can heal.
