The Old Man Shuffle

[Ecoboy1324]

Back in the day I used to run my favorite opener all the time that i called the "Old Man Shuffle"

Basically I played a low level spellcaster face up (personal favorite being Old Vindictive Magician down to his effect being activated anyway if it is done right)and Magical Dimension face down.

Now my opponent is going to think one of two things: That im ether the most noobish player in existence and have something like a mirror force or torrential FD and will MST or Heavy it. To which i activate Dimension releasing Vindictive or will just attack old causing me to activate my dimension taking both his monster and placing mine on the field. Overall either a 0 +1 play that leaves his field open for a attack. My question is is this still a viable opening play in a Spellcaster centered deck or not

That's a terrible strategy.

 

I'd rather have set the Old Vindictive Magician. If they attack, I just did a 1-4-1.

I fail to see how this is a terrible early game strategy as it allows you to not only destroy there monster but summon something yourself that you can use later

If you fail to see why it's bad, go re-learn the game. Please.
