Ok so it's been a while since I played yuguioh seriously or bought cards, a year to be precise. I plan on getting back to it, well seeing that I haven't bought cards for a while I ask for a few suggestions for this old and rusty deck. You guessed it, it's a Gravekeeper deck.

Torrential Tribute


As you see it's slightly old style. A few friends at college told me it's pretty good. I just wanna see if it's tourney worthy, and if it still owns people. It has great swarm capabilities, overall good monster removal, decent protection, mass recursion, and Necrovalley's nasty effect. Side Deck is around but basically it changes the deck from attack to burn with the Cannonholder's and Dark Room of Nigthmare.

Suggestions, ratings, etc. are all welcome.
 
First and foremost: replace heavy storm with Giant Trunade. It'll help more than HeavyStorm(as in it won't kill Necrovalley). Add a Swords of Concealing light, since you don't have but one or two heavy hitters. That's the main problem with GK's. I run a tourney GK deck myself. Add a couple more guards, and if you're gonna run with Creature swap, might wanna throw in a couple GK curses. Maybe put in a Terraforming or two. if you don't have those, try an Owl of Luck.

As far as tourneys go, go for it.

And pwnage? well, with any themed deck it takes strategy, and trying to deduce how your opponent will react. Especially with all the beatdowns running around. your best friend will usually be GK Spy while Necrovalley is on the field. to a lesser extent, Guard, since it can put the double sac monsters back in the opponents hand. Overall it's a fair deck, just don't expect ta merk everyone you play.
 
Hmmm Gravekeeper's, been a while since I dealt with one of those, anywho my suggestions are as follows:

-1 Morphing Jar #2 (No use in this deck at all)
-1 Royal Tribute (Kind of situational and risky)
-1 Giant Trunade (You just don't play Necrovalley unless you need it)
-1 Rite of Spirit (4 revival cards in total and this is less superior)
-1 Spell Shield Type-8 (Barely much magics which target)
-1 Dust Tornado (My Body as a Shield does the job)
-1 Creature Swap (No suitable targets)
-1 Swords of Revealing Light (You don't want to hide from your opponent)

+1 Morphing Jar (Digs out Necrovalleys and dumps tribute monsters)
+1 Breaker the Magical Warrior (Godly...)
+1 Magician of Faith (Brings back Necrovalley)
+2 Mystic Tomato (Works nicely with Gravekeeper's, searching out most of them)
+1 Last Will (3 tributes, can handle this)
+1 Smashing Ground (Clears anything large)
+1 Mirror Force (Godly...)
 
And for a special surprise, my GK deck abuses the snot out of Acid Trap Hole. I can't tell you how many times I have pulled off one of the following combos. Opnt attacks my F/D Gravekeeper's Guard with Necro on the field. I activate Acid Trap hole, flip him up, then down (return non-attacking Monster) Attack goes through, he takes LP damage and it returns his attacking monster-or if the attacking monster is too big, I return it on first flip and stop the attack, then my turn return ant other monster when i flip summon it. ATH also works well with Spy. I they leave it alone you Acid it, bring out Spear Soldier, then Flip Summn it to bring out Assailant and go to town (turn and burn).
Oh, and with the amount of Dark World stuff out there, I would side a Watcher or two!! "Yeah, Dark Coffin? I don't think so!" "Graceful? Not on my Watch!"
 
magicians circle & magical dimension....help with the swarming.....you may want to plug in (or side) injection fairy lily too - she's easy to pull with the circle & last will.....those trunades will allow a direct hit from time to time.....if you find you're having trouble with monarchs - you'll like mask of restrict in your side deck...
