I think you have over 40 cards, which is a bad thing, because you will not draw what you need most of the time. if you want to focus on paladin, take out the cards that don't contribute to your strategy, like injection fairy lily, jinzo, yata-garasu, tribe inecting virus. all those cards are ok i guess, but they don't contribute to your main strategy. also, i suggest taking out magic cylinder bcuz you will get flamed on this site for it. someone can give you a good dark paladin build around here.

whats wrong with magic cylinder?

 

Allow me to list the reasons:

1. It only stops ONE attack and doesn't even end the Battle Phase

2. Can't be activated in response (chained) to stuff like MST, Heavy Storm, Dark Armed Dragon, ect.

3. Doesn't destroy/remove a monster

4. Too easily countered by stuff like Dark Bribe and Solemn Judgment

 

Those are the major problems. There are far more cards superior to Cylinder. Stuff like Mirror Force, Dimensional Prison, even Sakuretsu Armor are better. It's also commonly accepted around here that Cylinder is only good in Burn decks. Don't ask me why...

 

As for a better deck, try the following:

 

19

1x Chaos Emperor Dragon

2x DM

2x BB

3x Skilled DM

2x Skilled WM

2x E-Hero Prisma

2x Breaker the MW

2x King of the Swamp

1x Magician of Faith

1x Witch of the BF

1x Cyber Jar

1x Sangan

 

15

3x Polymerization

2x Allure of Darkness

1x Pot of Greed

1x Graceful Charity

1x Reborn

1x P-Burial

1x Harpie’s FD

1x Raigeki

1x Dark Hole

1x Change of Heart

1x Delinquent Duo

1x Pot of Avarice

 

6

1x Call of the Haunted

1x Mirror Force

1x Ring of D

1x Torrential

2x Bottomless TH

 

3

3x Dark Paladin

 

This should be pretty decent. I added Chaos Emperor Dragon because you have plenty of DARK monsters and a few LIGHTS (Prisma, MoF, Skilled WM) and it's a field nuker, in that it destroys every card on the field. You can replace CED with Black Luster Soldier or even Chaos Sorcerer if you feel like it. The rest should be pretty straightforward.

 

Keep in mind that this can't be used in tournaments. If you want a tourney-legal deck for Dark Paladin, PM me if you want.

That does make sense about the Magic Cylinder now..

 

I used to play CED and BLS.. but as good as they are.. just not my style..

 

I do like the rest of the deck though. whats the prisma do?

 

any reason to limit skilled wm to 2?

 

sorry for all the questions.. i have been out of the game for 2 maybe 3 years.. right when AST came out.

Half of these cards are banned >_>....

 

Yeah.. This is Traditional. lol i can use whatever i want!:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

 

Duh this is traditional Of course half the cards are banned. She would've posted this in advance if it wasn't.

 

Nice deck though. Could never do this deck right for some strange reason.

 

 

I think for my first attempt.. this was a pretty mean deck.. on average.. i got the paladin out on my first or second turn!

I used to play CED and BLS.. but as good as they are.. just not my style.. The Envoy Monsters are pratically staples in tradtional decks that run a decent amount of DARK and LIGHT monsters. Although if you don't like it' date=' you can replace CED with Dark Magician of Chaos and add Dedication through Light & Darkness in there somewhere.[/b']

 

I do like the rest of the deck though. whats the prisma do? Selects 1 Fusion Monster, then sends one Fusion Material Monster to the grave, and Prisma's name is treated as the sent monster.

 

any reason to limit skilled wm to 2?Not really, but you have so much draw power that drawing BB is pretty easy.

 

sorry for all the questions.. i have been out of the game for 2 maybe 3 years.. right when AST came out.

 

 

BTW, I got your PM. I'll send you a deck momentarily.

yes' date=' it sends a monster listed on a fusion card from the deck to the grave. then, until the endphase, prisma is treated as the sent monsters name. so in your deck, you could send either BB or DM.

oh that makes sense.. hmm... i need those.. haha.. is there other things i can use for polymerization?

 

Unless you count Fusion Gate, not really. Spellcasters don't have any alternate fusion cards like Power Bond for Machines and Dragon's Mirror for Dragons. Poly and Future Fusion are really the only things you can use for Dark Paladin
