Trap Stun. They’re commons too I believe.
Everyone should be using Cold Wave. That card is way too good, especially in this format. Trap Stun is top tier also, but Cold Wave is broken.
WTF? Man =[
Is it Dan tier?
worst part about cold wave.
me: Activate Cold Wave
opponent: Chain Threatening Roar
me: :mad:
but otherwise, yeah - with heavy gone its your best bet to get a hit in without fear of d-prison/mirror force now. but now there’s stuff like battle fader and swift scarecrow, so yeah. you never know these days. since its limited to one, there’s no reason you can’t find room for it.
bribe was a common in the warrior’s strike structure deck that came out last year. there’s a lot of other good commons in there too like supervise and hidden armory.
you can maybe make a fun deck around it, but its not considered competitive. the only really competitive ritual monster these days is demise.
Yeah, chaining a response to cold wave is the only bad thing about it. But 90% of the time, it gets you the W. Especially with Lightsworns.
Drop Cold Wave, no response, drop a JD and clear then drop another one and a monster and attack for game.
But as of right now, X Sabers get the most benefit from Cold Wave.
Yeah, I’m not the biggest fan of Cold Wave unless I’m running Glad Beasts or X Sabers. Don’t like the chance of getting responded to and using CW for nothing. Like Trap Stun better.
Also, fuck Morphing Jar #2 that is all.
Cold Wave in Glad Beasts is the perfect way to do the double Gyzarus play.
Hence why I said I’m not a big fan of CW UNLESS I’m running Glad Beasts or X Sabers…
I could always chain trap stun to things like threatening roar couldn’t I?
Just got myself some trap jammers since mirror force is running amok, also useful so I can get Van’Dalgyon to the field.
The card game in general is pretty random and unbalanced, shouldn’t really be taken seriously, but its still fun to play. I love me some Monarchs, easy +1s most of the time.
3 Battle Faders = awesome
Yeah, it’s not going to Mystical Space Typhoon on you or anything. It cannot be activated in response to any Counter Traps though, as those are Spell Speed 3.
I has a question and haven’t been able to find an answer, anyways my opponent activates say mirror force I then activate trap jammer which means I can now special summon Van’Dalgyon and activate his effect to destroy 1 card on the field, could I then chain Chain Whirlwind to Van’Dalgyon’s effect?
Chain Whirlwind’s effect is “Activate only when a card on the field is destroyed by a card effect. Select 2 spell/trap cards on the field and destroy them.”
Maybe, but it’s a slippery slope because Van’Dalgyon’s effect reacts to a Counter Trap which is Spell Speed 3. If Chain Whirlwind isn’t a Counter Trap, which I don’t believe it is, then possibly not.
Also, aside from that, WHY exactly are you playing Chain Whirlwind?
Chain Whirlwind is being activated in response to Van’Dalgyon, Trap Jammer’s spell speed makes no difference because that chain will have already resolved by the time Van’Dalgyon’s effect is allowed to activate.
Do remember that Chain Whirlwind destroys 2 cards, not up to 2 cards.
Well the only reason I’m considering it atm is because I’m on a pretty tight budget to construct the deck I want, I’ve just spent £40 on cards and I’m only just half way through getting a full deck and that’s without any cards in the extra deck bar BEUD lol.
Anyways thanks guys 
What deck are you making?
Disaster/Hopeless Dragon, well a deck that has Red Eyes Darkness Metal in it, it would be so much easier if I didn’t have to pay postage on the cards I bought lol.
Well what’s your build? I’m sure there’s plenty of cheap cards that’s better than Chain Whirlwind.
Oh yeah I know there are better cards it’s just that I had some come through today and that was in one of the packs I got so I just figured I could use it until I can get some more cards but by which time I’ll most likely have space typhoons and dust tornadoes when I have a full deck anyway.
What I have in my deck atm is
3x REDMD
3x Wyverns
3x BEWD
2x Prime Material Dragon
2x Van’Dalgyon
2x Vice Dragon
3x Masked Dragon (thinking about taking one out once I have tuners/synchros)
2x Flamvell Grunika (will take out when I need tuners)
1x Exploder Dragon
2x Trap Stun
2x Trap Jammer
1x Cold Wave
2x Gold Sarcophagus
1x Future Fusion
1x BEUD (mostly due to it being a cheaper alternative atm)
How much do you like Van’Dalgyon?
