The contest ends 1/1/2009' date=' l may extend it.

 

...820 I will hunt you. I will find you. And I will kick you in the crotch...

 

LS SUCKS! SAMURAI ALL THE WAY!!!!

 

I'll be sure to wear iron boxers...

Sams are very good.

LS is just better. XD

 

LS is only "better" as you put it, because its a deck that revolves around lucksacking JD and honest (mostly JD) while milling off wulf and necro. You wouldent believe the # of times Ive been on the verge of victory against LS, and my opponent drops mthe JD they just drew.

It takes hardly any skill at all to play.

 

HOWEVER, Playing against it takes tons of skill, which IMO you have to have a lot of to succesfuly play samurai.

Sams ain't that hard.

There was a time where Sams = LS' date=' in 2008...

True, sams are not that hard to play, but to play a build and play a samurai deck to a point where you can compete with the meta, that takes tons of skill. Gateway is just going to make it easier for those experienced players to win.

In the past several players have proven that Samurai can beat the meta through skill. Lets not forget Jonathan Moores victory at the febuary, 2008 SJC in Houston. Winning an SJC is no laughing matter.

I'm not saying sams aren't able to compete with the meta, and do good. It's a decent archetype and it deserves a bit of glory. All i'm saying is, their 15 minutes is up. They may be good, but now, if a whole lot more support dosen't come quick, people will think less and less of them.

Look at D Heroes. Used to be meta, but now, even with D end Dragoon, they're mainly used as tech nowadays. And crystal beasts? May be replaced with Dragonuity.

Except crystal beast were never meta, and neither were D-Heroes except for a few of them. And dont you get started on 15 minutes of fame crap. Samurai never had their 15 minutes because they kept being overlooked by the decks that continuosly won Like the DAD varients. All Im saying is that with the right build and a skillful player, Samurai can be top tier.

 

BTW, how long has LS been top tier? I think their 15 minutes were up along time ago. As you put, They may be good, but now, if a whole lot more support dosen't come quick, people will think less and less of them. Once JD gets smacked that LS will fall victim to the decks that deserve a place in top tier. And no, im not just talking about Samurai. Im talking about GB's, Choas, and especialy Monarchs. God knows they have earned their right to be top tier.

LS is past due, but konami loves them, and JD is still around. You're right, when JD is banned LS will start becoming tech-only (BTW, #1 since they came out). Sams used to kick my ass so many times before, and i've seen people run a sam deck before. When I was goldenboy820 l even started a thread complaining about the meta, and sams were second on the list after BW.

If they want to see more play during the next formats, they just might need that dragon. Even still, sams won't be noticed as the best...

Samurai will never be acknowledged as the best like Classic Chaos or Tele-Dad were. But that doesnt mean they will never be aknowledged as top tier. They dont need a dragon so much as they need experienced players to realize their potential. Once that happens, Samurai will take off. You dont get to be top tier just because of the # of players who use you. You get to be top tier based on who was smart enough to come up with the decklist in the first place. If experienced players would stop focusing on the decks we already know are good, and started focusing on the decks that have the potential, our meta would be a very diffrient thing. Yeah, LS BW and DAD would still be up there, but that doesnt mean they wouldent have competition.
