Double post, I know, and Imma let you finish, but ya’ll better not be sleeping on Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode. Just need a way to make the deck faster.
I need some help making a spell caster lockdown deck, really having trouble with it so far I got:
18 Monsters:
1x Magical Exemplar
1x Skilled White Magician
2x Skilled Dark Magician
2x Breaker
2x Silent Magician LV4
2x Apprentice magician
2x Frequency Magician
1x Old Vindictive
1x Flamvell Magician
1x Buster Blader
1x Chaos Sorcerer
1x Dark Magician
1x Silent Magician LV8
22 Spell/Traps:
1x Polymerization
1x Spell Power Grasp
1x Book of Moon
2x Magical Dimension
1x MST
2x Secret Village of the Spellcasters
1x United We Stand
1x A Feather of the Phoenix
2x Gold Sarc
2x Level Up!
1x Lightning Vortex
1x Future Fusion
1x Magical Mallet
2x Trap Stun
3x Royal Decree
Any ideas to make this a faster more consistent deck?
well the new season of yugioh is officially out. im just glad they took out those fucking motorcycles, but im not really digging the fact that everyone looks like they are in fucking 5th grade or some shit.
One of my older Yugioh friends seems to be retiring so my team (by team I mean me and one other friend) are splitting money to buy his entire collection and decks, which would be around…ugh, $300-400 each. Now the good news is, we’re planning to sell a decent amount out since we don’t need some of it (we don’t need Doomcaliber Knights, and he’s only gonna keep one Duality and I’m not fond of Duality, plus neither of us like X-Sabers), so we’ll probably get half if not ALL of that back.
man I have to check this thread more often.
take out the level and polymerization aspects of the deck. max out breakers and SDMs (even without dark magician, its still a 1900 beater). consider kycoo the ghost destroyer. swap out frequency magician for night’s end sorcerer. try to throw in some gravekeepers (at the very least, spy). consider the tricky so you can special summon it by dumping a dead card (terraforming, secret village) or a monster to revive with exemplar.
add a third secret village and maybe 1-2 terraforming. add allure of darkness since most good spellcasters are dark. add the staple stuff like reborn, dark hole, trunade, etc.
traps are about right.
try to synchro into tempest magician or arcanite magician.
I’ll try to make an actual build later after work.
Meh, take out the Trap Stuns, he already runs Decrees, throwing Stun in there is overkill and is basically asking to be a dead card.
Also, I’d consider ONE Miracle Synchro Fusion and having Supreme Arcanite Magician in the Extra Deck. That thing is too good not to play, especially since his specific Spellcaster deck would be run on Spell Counters.
think I might pick up a supreme arcanite magician or two. those are dirt cheap.
here’s the secret village lockdown I made:
monsters: 20
3 breaker the magical warrior
3 skilled dark magician
1 summoner monk
3 magical exemplar
3 night’s end sorcerer
3 the tricky
2 old vindictive magician
2 royal magical library
spells: 17
1 dark hole
1 monster reborn
1 allure of darkness
1 giant trunade
1 foolish burial
1 mind control
1 book of moon
3 gold sarcophagus
3 secret village
2 terraforming
2 magical dimension
traps: 3
3 royal decree
I’ve tried making this deck before, but what killed it was speed. besides the one allure, there isn’t much going for it. the 3 sarcs hopefully can get you what you need in a couple turns and the libraries are the closest thing to a draw engine I can make with a spellcaster theme - 17 spells seems like a good amount to feed library spell counters. I put in magical dimension because its a fun card (even if it is a -1) that stardust can’t stop because of the optional destruction.
the tricky is there mostly to toss stuff and synch with night’s end for an easy arcanite. summoner monk can get out a quick exemplar, who in turn can get a night’s end pretty quick for a synchro summon. if there were more light-based spellcasters besides the library, I’d try to get in chaos sorcerer - who would also make getting out level 8 synchros much easier.
If you need a draw engine for speed, take out the Sarcos which are way too slow, and put in Upstarts. With the lockdown you’d want to hit, giving your opponent a couple of LPs won’t kill you.
Anyway, Extreme Victory Sneak Peek in 3 weeks with possibly the BEST Participation Promo in a long damn time in Reborn Tengu, and massive Psychic Support (that will probably get neutered with the insane likelihood of Mind Master getting banned and Overdrive Teleporter possibly getting Limited), and Tech Genuses for giggles.
What I want from the set is this however…
3x Reborn Tengu (everyone should get a playset…he’s so damn good, not supremely splashable, but there will be decks you can throw him in)
3x Revelation (great Counter Trap I want to main, takes out a lot of things in a variety of decks)
Resonator/RDA/RND support (I think it can be a solid Tier 2/Tier 3 deck, first turn RND can be absolutely destructive)
Also, fuck Konami for that cocktease in Psychic Shockwave…most of the Secrets this set are HORRIBLE.
stupid expensive common. I never pulled that card way back in magic ruler and I never bought any of the reprint sets.
I’ll try to pick up a set on ebay.
holy crap this IS really good.
It’s worth it to pick up, and it shouldn’t KILL you. But most people are using them in lieu of Dualities, so more people are going after them.
And yeah, it’s pretty damn great, the hype around it is insane. My favorite play is with BRD.
Tune Level 3 Tuner with Tengu (or Level 2/Level 1 Tuners with combinations) into Black Rose Dragon, Nuke Field. Since Tengu is Mandatory, he’s Chain Link 1, BRD is Chain Link 2. Thus the field is wiped and you have a free 1700 Beater on the field with no resistance (short of Gorz/Tragoedia/Battle Fader of course).
Yo can we get a tier list of top tier decks on the front page?
I wanna know wtf to sideboard against dat shit. Btw six sam ftw I love having 4 ROTA’s. Plz bring back 1 Gate plz. T.T
Time for Reprint Lists.
Hidden Arsenal Special Edition Reprint Promos are XX-Saber Emmersblade and Naturia Pineapple
Gold Series 4, 6 out of the 18 Gold Rares have been revealed: Obelisk the Tormentor, Five Headed Dragon, Doomcaliber Knight, Gravekeeper’s Spy, Tytannial Princess of Camellias, Royal Oppression.
If you have Emmersblade and DCKs, DITCH THEM NOW!!!
Top Tier decks: Six Sams, Hero/Light Gemini Beat, Gravekeepers, and Machinas are either there or right under. After Extreme Victory comes out, add Psychics until Mind Master gets banned, and MAYBE Karakuris.
LMFAO! Yugioh reprints strike again! Doomcaliburs for $25! Bet it!
What cards make psychic top tier? Karakuri get superrr good sheitt in XFC. Also imho Ice Barriers are gunna rise up with HA4
Psi Girl and Priest. Loops of death.
Also, along with a bump…
Dark Worlds are getting a Structure Deck in the OCG and we know of two new cards that…if the translations are correct…probably propel DWs to Tier 1. If they get Corridor as well, they could go Tier 0 IMO.
Also, you think we need a new thread?
That makes really happy.
Yeah…until they drop the list hammer on Grapha, Gate to the Dark World and Corridor and we go right back to where we started…
Hey IO’m going to remain optimistic >.>
Well I’m testing it now without Corridor (as there’s absolutely no guarantee it will even be made or put into the Structure). They’re probably not Tier 1 status without Corridor as they’re nowhere near consistent enough it seems.
It’s recommended that you run Deck Devi and EEV, it’s probably the most consistent way to get DWs in the grave other than tossing Broww (which you want to save in hand until Gate drops).
Very lovely cards coming out in the new booster.
Extreme Victory - Yu-Gi-Oh!
I wanna get Dodger Dragon, Vampire Dragon and Debunk.
Also this pack comes with Blue Rose Dragon.
Edit Also WC 2011 is the shiet, I love it.
I’ve been playing it imported, it really kicks WC 2010’s ass in every way.
It’s coming out May 10th for America. If you got a DS I suggest picking it up, has tons of cards we don’t have yet too.
