Anime Toon Reanimation

[Alexander]

?The wise pay as much attention to what they throw away as to what they keep.? - Reclaim

This quote was from an old M:TG card of mine, and holds true today as the primary theme of my deck. Inspired by the direct damage of toons and the power of ressurection, I decided to put it to good use in a new deck: the ?Toon-Reanimator?.

Basically, toss the toons in the graveyard at first opportunity, get out toon world, and revive the toons quickly with magics and traps to get around the tribute requirement or the no-attack rule (or both).

The Spear Cretins are the deck?s secret weapon. Because the ability is almost undoubtedly going to be activated by an attack, the deck lets you bring a Blue-Eyes Toon out DURING YOUR OPPONENT?S TURN. This not only bypasses the need for tribute, but it *also* lets the Toon attack at first opportunity, because it was summoned before your turn. The drawback of giving your opponent another free monster is not too bad - the only ones to REALLY worry about are Black Skulls, BEWDs, other toons (!), and Jinzo. Even ones with good flip effects aren't THAT big of a problem, because he will have to wait until his next turn to activate them. In the case of Blue-Eyes, there is nearly no monster in the game that can knock them out straight from the graveyard, aside from those mentioned.

Before you say anything about WHY I have three Mystical Space Typhoons in my deck, you have to understand this: LOCALLY, they DO negate the cards they destroy. Yeah, that makes them practically the best counter card in the game, but thats what they say locally, so I figure, I have three, why not use ?em? >=)

I must admit Soul Release is a very real threat. I don't worry too much about Toon World going boom...protecting that is first priority for my counters.

Here's another *awesome* toon helper: Giant Trunade. Toon World gets sent back to your hand, and because Toons only get destroyed when Toon World is DESTROYED, they REMAIN IN PLAY, because toons aren't REALLY dependent on Toon World!. It removes the Toon World weak point for the Toons already out! Booya!

I'm greatly worried about this deck's survivability...I haven't had a chance to finish this deck yet (call this my 'draft' copy).. but right now it looks like I could have some major trouble. Any ideas to keep the deck alive?

Hmmm, i don't play Yu-Gi-Oh, but i'd say this was a new theme for a deck. Jinzo is a annoying card. I remeber that when i was watching a game, when it died he used call of the haunted and monster reborn lol. Anyways, it doesn't seem to bad, but again, i play magic not Yu-Gi-Oh.

All I think is that you should get Magic Jammer(s)
They cause you to discard a card, maybe a Toon, and they can help out against magic cards, such as the Burning Land Card and D-Spell, that can destroy Toon Worlds.
