Read the one post above yours..the very last post on pg. 76 of this topic....--;

[QUOTE=Lady Katana][color=darkblue]I am by no means an expert, but I would think that you should focus your deck more on Dragon-type cards since you have Paladin of White Dragon in your deck. Truth be told, your deck's everywhere in terms of Type and Attributes. Plus, you have a Gradius' Option in your deck, which if memory serves, depends upon a Gradius that is on your side of the field to detemine it's Attack/Defense points, which I didn't see among your list of many. That being said, you may also want to trim it down, because that looks like a lot of cards for one not to have an apparent set theme. And if you wanted to use this deck for tournament play, Monster Reborn is limited to one. ^^; Anyways, here's a deck I've been working with for a while that I think needs a bit more help. [u]Lv. 6 & Higher[/u] Dark Magician Chaos Sorcerer Swordstalker [u]Effect Monsters[/u] Armed Ninja Crimson Ninja White Magician Pikeru Old Vindictive Magician Pixie Knight x2 Dark Scorpion- Chick the Yellow Marauding Captian Lady Ninja Yae Hayabusa Knight Dream Clown Mysterious Guard Frontier Wiseman Arcane Archer of the Forest (possible remove) Cliff the Trap Remover Gravekeeper's Guard Dark Scorpion- Maenae the Thorn x2 Blindly Loyal Goblin Witch of the Black Forest Getsu Fuhma Prickle Fairy (possible remove) Dark Scorpion- Gorg the Strong x2 Invitation to a Dark Sleep (possible remove) [u]Normal Monsters[/u] Warrior Dai Grepher Rogue Doll [u]Spell Cards[/u] Fissure Black Pendant Secret Pass to the Treasures Banner of Courage (possible remove) The Warrior Returning Alive Graceful Charity Poison of the Old Man x2 The A. Forces Mystical Space Typhoon Shooting Star Bow- Ceal Tremendous Fire Sogen x2 Fuhma Shuriken Monster Reborn [u]Trap Cards[/u] Trap Hole Enchanted Javelin x2 Waboku x2 Magic Jammer Robbin' Goblin Hidden Book of Spell Horn of Heaven Needle Wall Jar of Greed Sakuretsu Armor [u]Cards that will be added[/u] Don Zaloog A Gathering of Dark Scorpions Dark Scorpion Combination Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated. ^^[/color][/QUOTE] oO;; 1. Get a Theme 2. Give this deck the card form of liposuction....slim it to 40... 3. Get a Theme XD....that's about all the help I can give for now. I can't decide which cards to shove in if I don't know what your strategy or theme is..

Post-ban meta, spell negation outside of Horus becomes obselete. Removal is better than negation because without Imperial Decree, cards that just negate one single card are really a waste of space unless you're playing hand control and want some Magic Drains...removal>negation. And I have plenty of removal..

[QUOTE=DeathBug][color=indigo][size=1][font=comic sans ms]I'll disagree with Solo and say that Amplifier shouldn't be played at all, by anyone. An equip ard that can only work with one monster, and that monster's restricted? And it makes that monster even more vulnerable to destruction. No, thanks. Anyway, I'd remove the A-Team for another Promanince Dragon; A Team is too situational. You're wasting your summon fort he turn to get a weakling monster, and your opponent can simply opt to not activate his trap (or activate two traps) to get rid of it. (A Team does get props, however, for being the first Spell Speed 3 monster.) You have a lot of tech in the deck, but that's a matter of persoinal prference.[/color][/size][/font][/QUOTE] A Team is not too situational. If the opponent chooses not to activate his trap, he'll get bumrushed by either a 2000+ trample rusher called Gaia Soul, a 2000-2500 atk rusher in Efreet, or something like Prominence Dragon...Oo;; The point is to clear the way for my rushers through removal/m/t negation-removal.

Solidus: What is your theme? Your deck seems a bit random. If its light, I suggest you dump every attempt at playing a ritual monster. The reason is ritual monsters SEVERLY deplete your hand count over the course of the duel. That can be suicide versus any deck with hand control or a good rush. Top decking(where your hand is at 0 and you rely on the draw as your only option) is what you want your opponent to get to before you, and running a ritual monster won't do that. TotalImmortal: Drop your deck count to 40 instead of 45. Simple matter of ratios, drawing the card you need at a 1/40 probability, is better than 1/45. You want equal to MORE magic cards than monsters. You can only normal summon one monster per turn, every monster in your hand past the second is dead weight which could be used for staples or support m/t. Drop your monster count to 15-17. God cards are not legal for play PERIOD. You have way too many tribute monsters anyway. I don't see how you'd ever get them out. Cyber is your only option, but you'll need something else. Your deck is too random you need to get a theme and focus your deck around it. ----------------------------- Now that I've done my part, anyone care to r/f mine for ONCE. It may be an OCG deck but I've provided all the needed translations.
