huh...the decks not working as well as i thought...should i add some Soul Exchange or thestalos to it?

 

[kingpinopie]

OK,,,, I would drop 1 Berserk Gorilla for 1- Cyber Jar
also, I see the Enraged Battle Oxes as a hinderence more than a help..... I would drop them for 1- D. D. Assailants and 1- Thestalos the Thunder Monarch

now, I might throw in a Soul Exchange... or you can drop a Royal Decree for it.....

those are my suggestions... Cyber Jar will help with field presence, draw power, and monster removal.... I think it would help tremendously.
1- Thestalos will give you a bit of possible burn, along with some Hand Disruption, and DD Assailant will obviously help with the whole Field / monster destruction thing...

Soul Exchange is just in case.. you dont wanna get caught with a Trib. monster you cant get rid of, that along with your monster stealing cards should help you alot...
Check it out, see what you think




plz. . . comments/fixes on my decks....

 

[Inuyasha_Riku]

hmm...thoes are awesome ideas..thanks kingpinopie...ill try that out..^_^ though im still not sure what to take out for the 1 Soul Exchange....

 

[kingpinopie]

well you ARE running a 40 card deck... just toss it in... the Cyber is going to help with your drawing anyway... plus you have a Morphing Jar in there...... and Card Destruction... so one more card shouldnt hurt.....

I would up the monarch count to seven or eight, and by all means, run soul exchenge in triplicate.

-pssvr

 

[Inuyasha_Riku]

in triplicate? thats a bit much imo...

 

[Jason_C]

Maybe, but not if you have enough monarchs.-pssvr

 

[Inuyasha_Riku]

meh...iono...too many Soul Exchanges isnt always that great with this deck...im gonna keep the enraged oxes tho, they actually do help a bit ...

 

[Jason_C]

Well, alright, but let's work on your trap line up. Running six traps with two Royal Decrees = bad idea. Having six traps, none of which are chainable = bad idea. Lose one decree, and both bottomless. Put in two Waboku, and another Giant Trunade.

I used This deck in a Soul Control Version, This is the best i can do;
Phenox Of Nephis
Mobius X2
Thestalos X3
Cyber Dragon
D.D. Assailant X2
D.D. Warrior Lady
Cyber Jar
Don Zaloog
Spirit Reaper
Apprentice Magician X2
Magician of Faith
Breaker the Magical Warrior
Exiled Force
Tsukuyomi
Magical Merchant
Sangan

3 Soul Exchanges is Very Good

well the original purpose of the deck wasnt really for a soul control thing...it was kind of based on a beastdown/monarch control thing...hmm..who knows i mite try soul control with this deck some other day....

 

[bugtastic]

just a little suggestion, but i really havent tried the whole trample monarch thing. Looks purty kool. maybe i'll try it out and get back to u about more suggestions.Oh, and about the trap lile ups, since your using the mobius's, my advice is to use:

1 Royal Decree
1 Dust Tornado
1 Torrential Tribute
1 Call of the Haunted
1 Sakuretsu Armor

The Mobius the Frost Monarchs tend to clear your opponents field quickly so 1 Dust Tornado and Royal Decree is all you really need. Waboku you can throw it in if you feel people in your area attack like crazy, but other than that you could side deck it.

 

[Inuyasha_Riku]

hmm...thats one trap line up thats doable...only worry with that line up i have is mayb a bit of a lack of protection traps...but i guess its worth a shot...

 

[Jason_C]

only worry with that line up i have is mayb a bit of a lack of protection traps...

Oooh... Here's an idea. Jar of Greed. Bait their M / T removers without losing hand advantage.
-pssvr

 

[Inuyasha_Riku]

hmm...Jar of Greed eh? i was thinking about that pre ban...but i just thought it wasnt worth it after playing NT so many times using that instead of pot.....stupid Yami yugi....

 

[Inuyasha_Riku]

i just got a Cyber End Dragon in a pack so im debating whether to put in a cyber stein in the side deck or not.....should i or not?
