My farewell topic to the strategy forum "Pro Typhoon"

[Psycho Shocker Android]

I wanted to contribute something useful before strategy completely disappears. It might be known by some players out there but I never heard of it and came up with the name in honor of the pro storm. I know you can do this with many other cards but MST is the most commonly played.

 

Remember the time where everybody was running wing blast. It was so good because it could be chained to destruction effect to get rid of something. That's the idea behind the pro MST. I saw the opportunity to do this with MST when I chained a Raigeki Break to my opponent MST to destroy his set torrential tribute.

 

-When and how to do it.

When you have MST but nothing to attack with. Instead of just randomly destroying your opponent's backfield, you set the MST and proceed with your defensive play. Then when your opponent tries to destroy the typhoon chain it and destroy one spell or trap. This is great since it will give you card advantage most of the time.

 

There aren't many risk with this move since if your opponent doesn't destroy your MST you can still use it after to destroy something before an attack. Also, this serve as a bluff, your opponent will think it's a trap and play around it. And it's good even if your opponent destroys it because they've wasted a resource they would have liked to use on a bigger threat. This means if you draw a good trap card after, chances are your opponent will be out of options and be forced to run into it.

 

You can also make your opponent waste their heavy storm. If they only have 1 face down and you play MST right away there won't be anything on the field so they will keep their storm but if you set typhoon they might use their storm if they get too impatient. Of course, it might be because they have game but you would have lost anyway in that case.

 

So the pro move isn't just to chain something to destruction, it's setting a chainable card you want your opponent to waste something on.

 

Now, let's try to have one last good topic here and discuss this move. You can also try it and share your story.

Pro Dust Tornado:

 

When you think your opponent has dustshoot face down and you have 3 in hand at the end of his turn, play dust tornado. If you don't hit a dustshoot use dust tornado to set a spell or trap so you only have 3 in hand at the start of your turn.

 

Pro Allure:

 

If your opponent has a face down card and you want to allure but only have one dark in hand, set cards so you have 3 in hand when you allure. This way you get around the annoyance of possibly having to discard your hand when your opponent chains dustshoot to your allure.
