STON Plus deck - DarkLogicianofCaos

[Jathro]

I apologize for the long delay between entries. DLoC presented this challenge to me... a very interesting one.

Alright, here's the challenge. I have a STON Sealed tounament Birthday party I'll be running ina couple of weeks. Most of these players are middle-school aged and have little YGO experience. They will be opening up the STON packs, so we know that they will almost all get a six-samurai build. I have a bunch of commons I pulled from FET and newer packs (non-DR/DB or structure). Basically, I have multiple commons from working events from FET and on that I can give away. With those parameters, what kind of six-samurai common build can I help them make after the tourney.

I tried to get the guy sponsoring to offer the Warrior Structure deck as well, but what can you do.

Thanks a bunch!!

I want to help those that are still new to YuGiOh! to build a cheap good deck with what they get, plus some commons I can spare. I have a boat-load of the commons from those packs, soo...

any ideas are really appreciated!!

Well like I said, I do apologize for the lengthy delay. I hope I'm not too late for the tournament, or if I am, that it went well.

A Six Samurai Build seems the way to go here. And we'll try to stick with commons, though there will certainly be STON rares that would beef up the deck. Here's what we can work with, based on the parameters, and assuming a playset of the Six Samurai monsters will not be had.

Monsters:
1x The Six Samurai - Yaichi
1x The Six Samurai - Kamon
1x The Six Samurai - Nisashi
2x The Six Samurai - Irou
2x The Six Samurai - Zanji
1x The Six Samurai - Yariza
2x Elemental Hero Wildheart
1x Insect Knight
2x Drillroid
1x Steamroid
1x Sand Moth
1x Cybernetic Cyclopean
1x Indomitable Fighter Lei Lei
2x Snipe Hunter
1x Destiny Hero - Defender
1x Elemantal Hero Neos
2x Puppet Plant

Spells:
1x Double Attack
2x Legendary Ebon Stead
2x Shien's Castle of Mist
1x Linear Accelerator Cannon
2x Mystical Wind Typhoon
1x E - Emergency Call

Traps:
1x Return of the Six Samurai
2x Threatening Roar
2x A Rival Appears!
1x Next to Be Lost
2x Pole Position

And there we have it. Granted, this is a very loose skeleton, and will depend highly on the available card pool and the cards pulled from packs. I find in limited deck building, heavy hitters are the way to go, but we also have some defenders in here to help balance it out.

The spell and trap lineup is lacking the typical monster or s/t destruction, but it's not without its surprises. I think in a mirror match against Six Samurai, A Rival Appears! would be an interesting play and help trigger the owners own Six Samurai effects if lucky enough to grab one.

Again, it all depends on the card pool. If someone is fortunate enough to grab a Neo-Spacian Grand Mole, Card Trader, etc. they would certainly be welcome additions, but hopefully this gets players on the right foot.

Enjoy!
