Mill, is it no longer obselete?

As we all know, last format, with all the zombie nonsense, Milling the enemy was digging your own grave.
皆の衆が知りの通りさっきの環境はアンデッドばっかで、デッキ破壊は自分の墓穴を掘っていると同じ

But what about now?
でも今は?

The only decks that really benefit from milling are:
自分のデッキを破壊してメリットになるデッキは

Lightlords, Plants.
ライトロードと植物だけ。

AKB, GB, and other decks are usually hurt more than they benefit.
AKB、剣闘獣などはメリットよりもデメリット。

This format, SOME things are good in the graveyard.
いまの環境で墓地でいてほしい物は少ない。

Also, DAD, being limited now, isnt a big threat you need to worry about when milling the enemy.
さらにダムド/カオスソーサラーは制限になり、デッキ破壊をしても心配するほどの物じゃない。

So, in conclusion,
よって

Mill is viable in this format. Only if you can make it fast enough...
今の環境だとデッキ破壊はいける。BF並に早ければ...

That is all.
以上。

Coming Soon:
近日発表:

Wheelie Breakers Game review: RIDING DUEL, ACCELERATION!
ウィーリーブレイカーズの評論: ライディングデュエル:アクセラレーション!

I only watched the 1st ep of 5Ds so thats all I know.
アニメの第一話しか見ていないからそれしか知らない。

Starbusters from around the world...

As you know, some time ago, I mailed off Stardust Dragon / Buster mats to all parts of the world.
ご存知の通り、スターダスト・ドラゴン/バスターのデュエルフィールドを世界のあちらこちらに送ったこともあったね。

Today, I bring the end result to you.
今日、その結果を見せる時が来た。

I've taken to calling people who have a Stardust Dragon / Buster mat "Starbusters".
我輩はスターダスト・ドラゴン/バスターのデュエルフィールドを持っている人々をスターバスターと名づける

So now, Starbusters across the world:
そして、世界中のスターバスター:

I am not responsible for any illicit material on any other blogs
我輩は他の人のブログに乗っている不法な物と一切関係ありません。



Paladinero82, from ITALY

Panda Han Rui, from SINGAPORE

Fireowners, from SINGAPORE.

Firebot88, from SINGAPORE

Ball-Snow, from SINGAPORE

Asakura Y, from SINGAPORE

And no picture, because of the mat being destroyed in the mail
郵送中にデュエルフィールドの撃滅のため、画像ありません

LimGQ, from Malaysia

Yay.
イェイ。

So it appears that the "Starbusters Across the world" arent so across the world.
結果的に”世界中のスターバスター”はちっとも”世界中”じゃない。。。


Thanks for applying everyone!
みんな、申し込みありがとう。

Coming Soon, to a blog near you:
あなたの近くのブログにもうすぐ来る:

Burning Tuning


And when this blog gets 10000 hits:
そして、このブログは一万ヒットになったら:

One lucky someone will get an entire deck sent to them.
秘密のデッキをラッキーな一人にデッキごと送ってあげる。

The deck's project name is: "Knight in Shining Armor"
デッキのコードネームは「白銀の騎士」

I wonder what it is...
さあ、なんだろう。。。

:)

:)

我輩はうれしい。

New School building bells...

Today, the new school building's bells rang for the first time.
今日、学校の新しいビルの鐘が始めて鳴った。

All of the other buildings have a electronic chime for the bell.
他のビルは全部鐘じゃなく変な電子ブザーをつかってる。

But the new building has church bells.
でも新しいビルは教会ベル。

WTF?
えぇぇ~~~~

The new building is for science labs...
新しいビルは科学教室専用なのに...

Something is wrong with this picture.
なんかおかしい...

Also, today, I saw a sign for a psychiatrist
今日、精神科医の広告サインをみた。

It read: Psychiatrists, because there are some things mirrors cannot show you.
こう書いた:精神科医:鏡に映せないものもあるから。

Yeah. I agree. For example, Vampires.
うん。同感だ。たとえば吸血鬼。

Shining Wyvern / シャイニング・ワイバーン

In ANPR, there were many cards that were interesting.
エンシェント・プロフェシーだと興味深いカードいっぱいあった。

Ancient Fairy Dragon, Fishborg Gunner, XXSaber Gatomz, and others.
エンシェント・フェアリー・ドラゴン、フィッシュボーグ・ガンナー、XXセイバー・ガトムズなど

Today, we will take a look at one of these cards
今日、この中の一枚を中心にしてデッキを作ろう。


Today's Key Card is:
今日のキーカードは:

Ancient Holy Wyvern!
エンシェント・ホーリー・ワイバーン !


Since this card's effect is based on having massive life advantage, this deck was made to maintain high life advantage.
このカードの効果はライフ・アドバンテージで輝くのでこのデッキはライフ・アドバンテージをできるだけとるのに作った。

So, this is the deck.
デッキは以下の通り。


Synchro Summon! Shine Until the Ends of the World, Ancient Holy Wyvern!

シンクロ召喚!世界の果てまで照らせ!エンシェント・ホーリー・ワイバーン!

Total/合計/40枚

Monster/モンスター/21
1 Guardian Angel Joan/ 守護天使 ジャンヌ
2 Prime Material Dragon/ マテリアル・ドラゴン
3 Soul of Purity and Light/ 神聖なる魂
1 Cyber Dragon / サイバー・ドラゴン

Generic.

Playing:
プレーイング:

Syncro Summoning of Ancient Holy Wyvern:
エンシェント・ホーリー・ワイバーンのシンクロ召還

The way you want to aim to summon Ancient Holy Wyvern is by: Soul of Purity and Light + Sunny Pixie(From One for One).
エンシェント・ホーリー・ワイバーンを召還するのに神聖なる魂とサニー・ピクシー(ワン・フォー・ワンによる特殊召還)を素材に使ってシンクロする。

This gives you +1000 Life advantage without losing your normal summon.
これは通常召還を使わずに+1000のライフ・アドバンテージをとれる。

Aegis of Gaia + Prime Material Dragon / Rainbow Life = Instant +6000 Life
女神の加護+マテリアル・ドラゴン及びレインボーライフ=+6000ライフ

The Field spells are there so you can take advantage of Ancient Fairy Dragon's Life gain.
フィールド魔法はエンシェント・フェアリー・ドラゴンの効果によるライフゲインのためです。

Zeradias also gives you the discard option to power Soul of Purity and Light
ゼラディアスは神聖なる魂の除外コストにもなりながらフィールド魔法をサーチできる。

Shining Angel + Sanctuary in the Sky = Tons of Light in grave
シャインエンジェル+天空の聖域=墓地肥やし。

Neo-Elysium /新生・魔界の草原 - ネオ・エーリュシオン

Back when this blog was young, I created a deck called Elysium, a deck made so that one Dark Eruption and One terraforming could solve as many problems as you threw at it.
このブログはまだまだ若いとき、魔界の草原 - エーリュシオンと呼ばれるどんな問題でもダークバースト一枚とテラ・フォーミング一枚で解決できるデッキを作った。

Now, I have decided to take a new look at the concept of feild magic, with the added support of the new Feild Magics and support in Ancient Prophecy, and re-create the deck.
我輩はフィールド魔法を再び見て、ANPRのフィールド魔法系カードを使って、デッキを蘇った。

Today's Key Card is:
今日のキーカードは:
Dark Eruption!
ダーク・バースト!

Thus, the re-created Elysium has been built so any monster one wishes to re-use can be retrieved by this card.
よって、蘇られたエーリュシオンはどんな使いたいモンスターでもこの一枚で回収できるようにできている。

It has been re-born into Neo-Elysium
そして、デッキは新生・魔界の草原 - ネオ・エーリュシオンとして蘇った。

So, this is the deck.
デッキは以下の通り。


新生・魔界の草原 - ネオ・エーリュシオン
Neo-Elysium
Total/合計/41枚

Monster/モンスター/18
2 Cyberdark Horn /サイバーダーク・ホーン
2 Cyberdark Edge /サイバーダーク・エッジ
1 Cyberdark Keel /サイバーダーク・キール
1 Mystic Tomato /キラートマト
2 Armageddon Knight /週末の騎士
1 Sangan /クリッター
2 Hunter Dragon /ハウンド・ドラゴン
2 Dark Salvo /ブラック・ボマー
2 Darkwing - Gale of the Hurricane / BF―疾風のゲイル
1 Des Koala /デスコアラ
1 Spirit Reaper /魂を削る死霊
1 Darkwing - Mistral of the Silver Sheild /BF-銀盾のミストラル

Spell/魔法/17
3 Dark Eruption /ダーク・バースト
3 Terraforming /テラ・フォーミング
2 Black Garden /ブラック・ガーデン
1 Ancient Forest /古の森
1 Array of Revealing Light /光の護封陣
1 Zombie World /アンデッド・ワールド
1 Necrovalley /王家が眠る谷―ネクロバレー
1 Mystical Plasma Zone/ダーク・ゾーン
1 Demise of the Land /終焉の地
1 Heavy Storm /大嵐
1 Mystical Space Typhoon /サイクロン
1 Monster Reborn /死者蘇生

Trap/ 罠/6
3 Bottomless Trap Hole /奈落の落とし穴
1 Torrential Tribute /激流葬
1 Crush Card Virus /死のデッキ破壊ウイルス
1 Mirror Force /聖なるバリア ー ミラーフォース

Side /サイド / 15
2 Ancient Gear Gadjiltron Dragon / 古代の機械巨竜
1 Hunter Dragon /ハウンド・ドラゴン
1 Darkwing - Mistral of the Silver Sheild /BF-銀盾のミストラル
1 Swords of Revealing Light /光の護封剣
3 Geartown /歯車町
1 Lightning Vortex /ライトニング・ボルテックス
1 Ancient Forest /古の森
2 Twister/ツイスター
3 Dust Tornado/砂塵の大竜巻

New Tricks this deck has:
このデッキの新しいコンボ

Defensive tactics: BF-Mistral of the Silver Sheild and Des Koala add to the first turn opening possibilities, while providing some OTK defense, and burn damage.
防御:BF-銀盾のミストラルとデスコアラは専一ターン目の開きの可能性を増えると同時にOTK対策とバーンダメージを与える方法をあげる。

Dark Salvo into Ancient Fairy Dragon:
ブラック・ボマーからエンシエント・フェアリー・ドラゴン

Dark Salvo, with a Cyberdark part in the graveyard, can instantly syncro into not only Dark Dive Bomber, but also Ancient Fairy Dragon.
ブラック・ボマーとサイバーダーク ホーン/エッジ/キールはダークダイブボマーだけではなく、エンシエント・フェアリー・ドラゴンをシンクロ召還できる。

Use this card to destroy any feild spell the enemy may have, and search out any of your 7 Feild spells, most of which will help stop the enemy in some way.
このカードを使って、相手のフィールドを破壊しながら相手を止められる七枚のフィールド魔法をサーチできる。

Have Ancient Fairy Dragon hide behind Ancient Forest, setting up syncros, which let you send Hunter Dragon and other monsters to the graveyard.
古の森で隠れながら、モンスターを何でも呼び、シンクロ召還の”光指す”道へとつなぐ。

Old Tricks still working:
まだ使える古いコンボ:

Necrovalley, Zombie World, Black Garden, and a buffed up Cyberdark Horn/Edge/Keel can singlehandedly rip apart Plant decks.
ネクロバレー、アンデッド・ワールド、ブラックガーデン、サイバーダーク ホーン/エッジ/キール+ダークゾーン一枚だけで植物を倒せる。

Side into Geartown + Ancient Gadiltron Dragon with Dark Salvo feild wiping powers.
歯車町+古代の機械竜にサイドチェンジ。

Black Garden + Cyberdark Horn/Edge/Keel. No need to explain.
ブラック・ガーデン+サイバーダーク ホーン/エッジ/キール。説明するほどじゃない。


Weaknesses:
このデッキの弱点。

This deck is still the "All monsters are Dark, Effect, and less than 1500 ATK."
このデッキのモンスターは全て「闇属性、攻撃力1500以下」。

Skill Drain rips this deck apart. Side in twisters and dust tornadoes to deal with this threat.
よって、スキル・ドレインに特に弱い。サイドチェンジでツイスターや砂塵の大竜巻で対策済み。

My Tournament Use Deck.

Hello readers. Today, I bring to you, my tournament use deck!
皆の衆、ごきげんよう。今日、我輩の大会用デッキをご紹介します。

As promised, when this blog hit 5000 hits, I would show the world my tournament use deck.
約束通り、このブログは5000ヒット記念に世界に自分のデッキを見せます。

First, these are the decks and tokens I have own, and have shown the world.
まず、ブログで紹介したデッキやトークンはこれらです。


(From left to right)(左から右)
Top row(上の列): Kaien Tokens, Rose Tokens, Budget Fairy Control, Dimension Magic, Kuriboh Monarchs, Elysium.
Bottom row(下の列): Tournament deck, D.D. Arkana Turbo , Guilty/Plant , JUST TUNE , and Pure Monarx



So, what is Rau's tournament use deck? Is it some crazy meta deck?
じゃ、ラウの大会用デッキって?激強い流行デッキっぽいもの?


Quite wrong. It is, like all my other decks, very rouge.
いいや、他のデッキのようにすごく不評。





Now, the unveiling of my deck, THE deck.
そして、とうとう大会用デッキのベールを取る時が来た。




Setup 1:
セットアップその①

Monsters/モンスター編

Spells and Traps/ 魔法+罠編


And the whole deck.
全表示


Setup 2:
セットアップその②

Whole deck.
全表示

Side Deck(In setup-2 Mode)
サイド(セットアップその②)
From this, you can figure out the setup 1's side
このサイドからセットアップ①のサイドもわかる。

Extra Deck
エキストラ編


Yes, Rauzes runs an Absolute Zero deck!
そう。ラウの大会用デッキは絶対零度です!


As you can see, this deck is made to be able to swap between setups 1 and 2 easily.
見ての通り、このデッキはセットアップ①から②へと変換できるようにできている。

Setup 1 is named Skill Drain Zero
セットアップ①はスキドレ・ゼロ

Setup 2 is called Zero Syncro
セットアップ②はゼロ・シンクロ

Setup 2 is primarily for VS decks which work well under the pressure of Skill Drain.
セットアップ②は主にスキルドレインの効果の下で活躍可能なデッキに対して使う。

Setup 1 is more the anti-meta type.
セットアップ①はメタっぽい。

Setup 1: Skill Drain Zero
セットアップ①:スキドレ・ゼロ

2 Malevolent Catastrophe /邪神の大災害


Playing/プレイング
Skill Drain affects most monsters, hindering them severely. What does not get negated, is monsters not on the field.
スキルドレインはフィールド上のモンスターの効果を消す。無効されないのはフィールド以外の場所で発動する効果。
Absolute Zero activates only off the Field.
そして、アブソリュートZeroの効果はフィールドを離れたとき発動する。


Setup 2 : Zero Syncro
セットアップ②:ゼロ・シンクロ

Monsters/モンスター: 21

1 Bottomless Trap Hole /奈落の落とし穴
2 Prohibition /禁止令
1 Skyscraper /摩天楼―スカイ・スクレイパー
2 Dust Tornado /砂塵の大竜巻
2 Malevolent Catastrophe /邪神の大災害

Playing/プレイング
Through the loss of Skill Drain, the attack increasing effect of Absolute Zero is something to keep in mind.
スキルドレインを無くしたいま、アブソリュートZeroの攻撃上昇効果のことを考えなければならない。
Thus, through the swarming effect of Deep Sea Diiva, Treeborn Frog, and Dragon Ice, this is taken advantage of, whilst being a venue for syncro.
よって、深海のディーヴァ、黄泉ガエル、ドラゴン・アイスの効果による水属性を大量召還で攻撃の上昇しながら、シンクロ召還の ”光指す” 道となる。


Extra Deck / エキストラデッキ
1 Stardust Dragon /スターダスト・ドラゴン
1 Mist Wurm /ミスト・ウォーム
1 Thought Ruler Archfeind /メンタル・スフィア・デーモン
2 Black Rose Dragon /ブラック・ローズ・ドラゴン
1 Goyou Gaurdian /ゴヨウ・ガーディアン
1 Collossal Fighter /ギガンテック・ファイター
1 Gaia, Force of the Earth /大地の騎士・ガイア
1 Ally of Justice, Catastor /A・O・J カタストル
1 Magical Android /マジカル・アンドロイド
1 Chimeratech Fortress Dragon /キメラテック・フォートレス・ドラゴン
3 Elemental Hero Absolute Zero / E・HERO アブソリュートZero
1 Elemental Hero Terra Firma / E・HERO ジ・アース /엘리멘틀 히어로 디 어스



One of the elements of this deck I'm most proud of is its quick deck thinning ability, found in both setups.
このデッキの一番誇りに思う得点は両方のデッキにある早いデッキ圧縮です

By thinning the deck very fast through its countless venues, it carves the path to easy summoning of Absolute Zero
様々な道で早いデッキ圧縮はアブソリュートZeroの召還への道です


Wow. That was a long post.
すっげ~長かった。

That is all of my deck. How was it?
以上、大会用デッキです。どうだった?


Today, I decided to make as many posts as possioble bi-lingual from now on, hopefully to attract Japanese readers and show them the English speaking Yugioh world, as I show you the Japanese one.
今日、我輩はできるだけブログの記事を英語も日本語を両方使って記事を書くこと決めた。これは日本の読者を誘い、このブログは英語を話す世界に日本の遊戯王を見せるように、日本人のデュエリスト達に英語を話す遊戯王の世界を見せるためです。

What do you think of this bi-lingual idea?
皆の衆は日本語と英語両方で記事を書くこと、いいと思いますか?

Comments are welcome.

5000 Blog Hits!!!!!

Hello my readers.

Today, This blog got its first landmark, 5000 hits!

Thanks for the 5000 hits!

Contratulations to kuriboh for getting THE 5000th hit!

This took a total of 96 days. Thank you everyone for 5000 Hits!

Now. I promised I would post my tournament deck for all to copy when this blog gets 5000 hits, and I will. Expect the post tommorow. Im right now taking pics of deck.


To celebrate, I will be giving away FIVE ANPR Playmats.

Today, I got the following loot:



ANPR Mats X6, Starter Deck 2009 Card Box.



The box looks like this when folded. Cool stuff. Road Warrior is win.


This is what the ANPR playmat looks like. Its very pretty isnt it? I will be giving away FIVE of these. What happened to the 6th? Its in my "Non Card Promo's" Box, laminated.


ANPR PLAYMAT OFFER

Since there was some confusion the last time about the Stardust Dragon/ Buster Mats, earlier this month, I thought I could make clearer the instructions.

Here are the rules:

- Email me the request at: "bakfun@hotmail.com". Make sure that you didnt copy the quotation marks.
- The words: Ancient Prophecy Playmat request, or words to that effect must be included in the SUBJECT.
- With your request, include your NAME, and ADDRESS
- This offer is valid ONLY FOR PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF JAPAN! People in Japan: Go to your store and get one yourself.
- These mats will arrive FOLDED and UNLAMINATED. It is the responsibility of the requestee to properly use and protect the mat.
- Posting your Name and Address as a comment in this post will result in it being REJECTED. It WILL NOT APPEAR, and I WILL NOT TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT IT. This is for your own protection.
- If you have previously requested a Stardust Dragon/Buster playmat, and have NOT YET sent me pictures of it being happily used, you are NOT a valid requestee of this offer. HOWEVER, You can request one, and it will be held for you until 1: I recieve pictures of the Stardust/Buster mat having safely arrived and enjoyed, or 2: a different, valid requestee emails me a request. This is so people have "equal chances" of getting a playmat, and so that I can make that post on people who have gotten their Stardust/Buster mats.

ANPR Gets.

As you can see, I bought 1 Box.

Today, my Target cards are:
Future Vision
Ancient Forest
BF - Mistral of Silver Sheild

Lets OPEN!
Overall pulls?
BAD.
Ancient Fairy Dragon I like. However, other than that, the pulls were downright bad for me.
1 Ancient Forest was expected, as well as some BF-Mistral.
No future vision is not nice.

Okey. So whats good now?

XX SABERS!

This pack had some CRAZY X-Saber support (Double X Sabers). Double X has its own Grandmaster, its own free +1s, and it has MORE Free +1s to feed the previously mentioned +1s. It has feild swarming ability, and major hand death.

XX Sabers will make an appearance for a few weeks people! BE PREPARED FOR THEM!

However, In my opinion, Rescue cat -> Airbellen X2 is too broken to be topped. What WILL top it is XX-Cats.(Read: Double X Cat!/ダブルX猫) Nickname it after your favorite female cat-based costumed hero/villain. I dont really care. XXSaber Gatomz is the new Dark Dive Bomber. Get them and trade them for big trades.

Black Feathers! Even Stronger!

BF- Vaayu of the Big Flag is broken, as we all expected. So now Burial from Diff Dimension is all expensive again. YAY. This is the new Mezuki. Expect price of Arms Wing and Armored Wing to go up.

Core Chimails
What fun. This is whats going to happen: People will want to build it, and buy up Steel Cores+Crusaders+Bergezerk, trying to make it, but itll fail horridly because Light and Dark meta just isnt as good anymore.

As for decks like Water, dont make me laugh. This isnt enough for the deck to become broken.
Fishborg Gunner(Card gunner says Hi, in more than one way!) IS good, but its still got a ways to go.
Frembel Helldog + Frembel Magical = Good stuff, but thats about it.
Brain Research Lab is pretty good, especially with Psychic Commander and other guys, and is good to set up syncroing.
Overall, this pack was a BUNCH of support for existing themes. Good stuff in general.



So, I have made a little list of cards you might want to keep your eye out for:


Vanity Feind: See Previous Post. Good sidedeck for AKB, XXSabers, and BFs.
Dimension Fissure: XXSabers, Vaayu BF, and Lightlords, as usual, rely heavy on graveyard. What makes this better than Macro is that YOU DONT HAVE TO HAVE IT DELTA CROW'd
Soul Release: See above. Much better than Imperial Iron wall as it doesnt cut YOU off from a RFP.
DDV: Kills Honest, Gale, pretty much everything these days. Its the new CCV. Use it.
Summon Limit: Kills AKB, BFs, etc. A side deck option.
Gatomz Urgent Orders: This is a key card for XXSabers. Be sure to keep an eye out for it because people are going to start to want it.

Another card, not on the list, but WILL be seeing rise in side deck play against XXNeko is Dark World. XXSaber Gatomz can ravage your hand in 1 turn, but Dark World just loves that. Keep an eye out for Dark World stuffs.

Oh, and only 2 more Starbuster Mats!

Highlander - There Can Only Be One.

Hello loyal readers. Today I bring to you a rather fun, rouge, yet playable deck.
This deck is Highlander.

Todays key card is:


There is none.


Highlander is a deck which is made so there are no two cards the same. Now, while this takes away from your ability to draw into exactly what you need through tutors, tutors, actually drawing it, and tutoring it some more, it puts more fun into the draw, since hopefully, most of the cards you draw will change the game in your favor.
Another concept of this deck is that once used, it cannot be used again, so every card play has to be as valuable as you can make it.

Highlander.

Monarx Control

Since I pretty much post only rouge decks on this blog, I thought, for a change, why not make a decently non-rouge deck for the blog for once?
So, today, Ill be showing you how I make Monarx.

The key card today is:

This guy.
A Level 2 Tuner, perfect for Monarchs, while being indestrutible from battle, providing perfect Monarch release fodder.

So, I created Monarx Control, a semi-normal Monarch Control.

Monarx Control/40

Monsters/23
1 Dark Armed Dragon
1 Gorz, Emmisary of Darkness

3 Caius, the Shadow Emperor
2 Raiza, the Wind Emperor
1 Jinzo
1 Mobeius, the Frost Emperor
1 Cyber Dragon

2 Raiou
1 Broken, the Magical Warrior
1 Psychic Commander
1 Spirit Reaper
1 Sangan
1 Dandylion
1 Mashmallon
2 Shiba Warrior Taro
2 Krebons
1 Treeborn Frog

Magic/ 10
1 Swords of Revealing Light
1 Heavy Storm
1 Giant Turnade
1 Pot of Avarice
1 Emergency Teleport
1 Brain Control
1 Lightning Vortex
1 Monster Reborn
1 Cold Wave
1 Mystical Space Typhoon

Traps: 8
3 Bottomless Trap Hole
3 Reckless Greed
1 Mirror Force
1 Torrential Tribute

How to play:
Simple. Its MONARCHS. Play by going: "Derp Derp, Release 4 Monarch". Focus on maintaing a powerful monster on the feild, or something that buys time until you release it for a monarch.
Level 6 + Level 2 = Level 8 = Stardust Dragon.
Stardust Dragon + Jinzo = Very good lockdown.



I took apart Gaurdian Monarchs to make this deck. Note that before Gaurdian Monarchs, the Monarchs were in a D.D. Monarch budget deck. Both Gaurdian and D.D. parts are now half decks, so maybe the next deck here will be D.D. Gaurdian.

Note that the Free Stardust Dragon / Buster playmat offer is still available. I still have 2 playmats left.
Also remember that the I will be posting my tournament deck after this blog gets 5000 hits(see counter on the side for hit #). Its not some crazy AKB variant. Its a semi-rouge deck.

I just started the "Todays Key Card" thing for decks. What do you people think of it?

Dark World this format.

AKB has massive Hand killing ability, and relies on special summoning to fight.
Weve tackled the Special summoning part with our side deck choice of Vanity Feind, but what about hand killing?

AKB isnt afraid of a Dark World DECK, but Dark world cards itself.

Suddenly, that Direct attack with 2X Airbellen which was supposed to tune into Dark Dive Bomber for game hits a road block, or completely shattered by Goldd.

So, if AKB is such a big deal, why not side in some Goldd and Silvaa?

Oh, and also new format. Templates are fun.

DDV, the New IN thing?

Tribute 1 DARK monster with 2000 or more ATK. Check your opponent's hand, all monsters your opponent controls, and all cards they draw (until the end of your opponent's 3rd turn after this card's activation), and destroy all monsters with 1500 or less ATK.

As you can see, this is a complete reverse of CCV.
But, what you dont see is that this tears apart AKB. Side in 2 copies into your monarch or other deck, and suddenly AKB isnt so scary. Especially good since Caius and Vanity Feind in Monarchs are such good fodder for DDV.

Unfortunately, with this having rises in use, Elysium, especially with access to Future Vision and Ancient Forest in ANPR, will become ridiculously useless.

Vanity Feind this format: Pretty damn good

Hello readers. How was your day?

Vanity feind, in this format, should, in my opinion, be seeing more play as a side/main deck option for monarchs. AKB/Rescue Syncro suffers greatly from the loss of all special summon capabilities, and BFs lose that easy syncro ability. Lightlords lose Wulf and JD, a significant loss, considering theyll have to probally use Honest to get over it.

So why isnt it seeing more play?
The only thing that this has to fear is BF - Gale of the Hurricane. And in BF, the enemy isnt garunteed to have it. IF they are, then Mind Crush/Judge Call is your friend.
Its Virus Food. Its on par with Caius against Skill Drain with virus.(summon caius target skill drain chain DDV).
So, todays lesson is:
Vanity Feind is your friend. Use it.

Core Chimail Bergezerk

Earth/Warrior/4/2000/200
During each of your End Phases, destroy this card unless you send 1 "Iron Core of Core Chimail" from your hand to the Graveyard or reveal 1 Warrior-Type monster in your hand. If this card destroys a monster your opponent controls by battle, it can attack once again in a row.

VJMP Promo: On sale April 21
Wow. Broken much?

First off, RoTA being limited hurts this card, but that effect is broken.
I think Konami is hyping Warriors strike a bit TOO much

Dark Side Tuning

Remeber JUST TUNE?
That was tuner beatdown based on the Light/Machine tuners that were Road and Hyper syncron.

But are those the only possioble tuner beatdowns there are?
What if we stopped thinking about tuners in shining armor, and take another look at tuners? At the DARK side?

Trap Eater. ATK 1900. Tuner. Battle Tuned says Hi.
BF- Gale of the Hurricane. ATK "I eat everything under 2600ATK". Tuner.

There are plenty of strong tuners out there. So thats why I took a second look at tuner beatdown. A darker look.

Dark Side Tuning

Monsters: 20
2 Trap Eater
3 Necro Gardna
2 Dark Grepher
3 BF - Gale of the Hurricane
1 Krebons
1 Powered Tuner
2 AOJ Cyclone Creator
1 BF - Blizzard of the North Pole
1 Mystic Tomato
2 Psychic Commander

1 Cyber Dragon
1 Dark Armed Dragon

Magic: 14
2 Allure of Darkness
3 Battle Tuned
1 Monster Reborn
2 Dark Eruption
1 Heavy Storm
1 Mystical Space Typhoon
1 Brain Control
1 Lightning Vortex
1 Emergency Teleport
1 Mind Control

Trap: 6
2 Scrap Iron Scarecrow
3 Solemn Judgement
1 Mirror Force

Playing:
Using Gale over and over: Use Dark Eruption to recover a BF- Gale, or a BF-Blizzard, which will bring back Gale for it to use its effect. This ATK/DEF halving effect is your main advantage in combat.
Grepher use: Use Dark Grepher to send to the grave Necro Gardna and Trap eater at the same time. Trap eater fuels Battle tuned. Necro Gardna fuels your tuners staying alive.
Protecting your tuners: This deck can do a lot of combat hurting in one turn by going through Gales, but on the enemy's turn, Gale cannot do much. Thats why we have Scrap Iron scarecrow.
More Tuners on the feild: By keeping tuners on the feild, and using Blizzard to get itself and Gale on the feild at the same time, Powered Tuner and AOJ - Cyclone Creator get stronger and stronger.
Skill Drain, Imperial Iron Wall messing up your plans?: Trap Eater says Hi. Side a 3rd copy.

Cutting Costs:
If your pressed for costs, an AOJ cyclone creator can be replaced with another Powered Tuner.

Special thanks to Neuxcharge for playtesting this deck and making changes and tweaks, perfecting the deck for you people to copy.

Zero-End.

So, today I played a person near locals.
She ran a strange combination of D-Hero Turbo(Trade in + D-Draw + Allure), and Absolute Zero.
I found out later that the deck consisted of D-End Dragoon and Absolute Zero.

It also had Viruses, which was weird in my opinion.
It just shows how many ways there are to make an Absolute Zero deck.
Absolute Zero deck VS Absolute Zero deck = No monster stays on the feild for more than 2 turns.

Tuner Beatdown MIRROR MATCH!

Hello blog readers.
For the record, at the moment I have about 5 of the playmats left, so if anyone wants one make sure to mail me.

Today, I went to play a bit at Konami Card Game Center. After that I met up with friends, and we watched Watchmen.

So. I at the card game center I found a person to duel. I was working on the Tuner Beatdown deck, so I used that.
So we play, and I realize im up against another Tuner Beatdown. Only completely different.

Whilst mine was Light/Machine, using Genex Neutron to search out Hyper and Road syncron, the enemy was Warrior of Mist Valley and AOJ Cyclone Creator, and a whole lot more damage step combat tricks.
I played 3 Matches. It was an overall good experience.
Match 1 - OO-
Match 2 - XOO
Match 3 - XX

It was fun, considering neither of us sided in between duels.

Im currrently building a different type of Tuner Beatdown, different from these two. Expect it here soon.

ATTN People who want their Stardust/Buster Playmat

Hello readers.
As you remember, back a few weeks ago, I posted about getting some free Stardust/Buster playmats as a sales promo.
This sales promo at my store has just ended this week, so other stores are probally not handing them out any more/will stop soon.

I currently have about 6 Of these, so Ill be giving them out.
Once again for the awesomeness.

So.
People who want one of these, contact me via Email. Send me your address(+Name), and if you want a Japanese Aniversary Pack with it or not. I wont spam your address all over the internets.

If you dont feel safe giving out your own address, I dont blame you.

DO NOT COMMENT WITH YOUR ADDRESS! People see those comments.

These will arrive folded and non laminated. Please laminate them yourself. Then show them off at your local/regional/nationals.

For the record, people in Japan have this already. This is for people not in Japan primarily.
I dont think I have many Japanese readers...

Happy dueling.

Scholarship VS Sandwich.

So, today at school, there was a meeting for a scholarship for those who didnt know about it.

At the same time, there was a planned trip for us to sneak out of school and go to a good sandwich store nearby that me and a friend had recently found, and opened today.

So it was basically opening day sandwiches or scholarship.
Scholarship VS Sandwich.

Out of 20 people who knew of this tradeoff, 19 went for sandwich.
Mmmm. Sandwich.
What responsible people we are.

Which one would you have chosen?
Oh. One more thing.
When this blog gets 5000 hits, I will post my tournament deck for this format for all to copy.

Stardust Accelerator

Since everyone else is making a post about it, Ill be a sheep and follow.

Thoughts:
Its hard for a game. Unlocking enemies to play is hard, and the beginning is hard. Ive beaten the story mode, but it took a long time building up the cards.

The racing mode is good. I like it. Too bad you dont duel WHILE racing. Riding duel mode sucks.

Oh. And for the game, I play an Absolute Zero deck.

Monday, April 6, 2009

Predictions for the next month...

In my opinion, the new month will see a rise in play for Fairies, and Core Chimail as a deck. For those collectors out there in the OCG area, hold on to:
Tethys
Valhalla
Core Chimail Powerhands.
They might see a rise in demand.

BF - Vaayu of the Large Banner

BF - Vaayu of the Large Banner
Dark/Bird/1/800/0/Tuner
While this card is face-up on the field, this card cannot be used as Synchro Material. If this card is in your Graveyard, you can remove from play this card and a "Blackwing" non-Tuner monster in your Graveyard, and Special Summon 1 "Blackwing " Synchro Monster with an identical Level from your Extra Deck. The effect(s) of the Special Summoned monster by this effect is negated.

Miracle Syncron!

So. We know this is a card that can revolutionize the game, so lets put it to good use for when it comes out!
I present to you, Miracle Syncro!

Miracle Syncro.

Monsters
1 Gorz, Emmisary of Darkness
1 Mezuki
3 Dark Grepher
1 DAD
1 Zombie Carrier
3 BF - Vaayu of the Large Banner

Use Zombie Syncro tactics to abuse Syncro!
Burial From Diff. Dimension to abuse Vaayu even more!

Comments and Questions are welcome.

So my school built a new building for the campus.

It opened yesterday.
Its like a mental institue.
Everything is white. The walls, the desks, the chairs, the ceeling, the BLAST SHEILD in the BIO lab.

It feels weird
