IMPROVED HARPIE DECK <3333333


Recommended Posts

"DARK HARPIES" <3

 

 

NOTE: I know this deck has kind of a lot of cards (44), but I'd like for it to stay that way for now since the deck actually works quite well so far, considering playing against many of my college friends. xD I'm not looking to be competitive or anything (like running bullcrap such as Stardust Dragon or using meta decks xD)...lolz By the way, I've been looking for Mirror Force, but I could never find one at a good price based on my budget, so I decided not to run one at all.

 

 

Anyway, I'd just like a quick opinion of my deck from outside sources. :3 It's so much fun to play!

 

 

EDIT: I cut down my deck's size to 44 instead of 47, and cut down to just one useful tuner since I rarely ever synchro summon. It seems to work even better than before. ^^ I'm also thinking of adding D.D. Crows somewhere in this deck, or I could sidedeck. :3

 

My friend encouraged me to finally enter a 5-round tournament (first one in 7 years) of 54 people I and placed 18th. I won against Lightsworns, Anubis control, and Glad Beasts, but then I lost against X Sabers and Blackwings.....Arghhh, such clooose matches, but I'm happy!

 

I thought I was gonna lose my first match, but now it's like YAYYYYY more confidence. :3 I SHALL REVOLUTIONIZE HARPIES!!!! loljkjk I'm still not really a competitive player. :D

-1 Rising Air Current

-1 Burden

 

+2 Solidarity

 

-2 Garuda

+2 Blackwing - Bora

 

-1 Swift Birdman

+1 Dark Simorgh

 

+1 Blackwing Armor Master

+1 Blackwing Armed Wing

 

Well......I wouldn't want it to turn into a blackwing deck....^^; Also, I added Garudas for special summoning purposes as well as sac bait for various cards like Icarus Attack and Swallow's Nest.

 

I actually thought about running solidarity, but I'm not counting on turning my monsters into uber beat sticks (it just happens xD). lolz I'd rather weaken my opponent instead by using the element of surprise. ;3 Besides, I have flying kamakiris in my deck, which are insects.

 

As for adding another Dark Simorgh.....I'm considering it, but I don't want to buy another one for the same reason I won't buy a Mirror Force. I'd love to have it in there, though, even though my deck doesn't rely on it. ^^

 

Thanks, anyway! <3

See, with the changes I made, you're not really entering into Blackwing territory. The Synchros are there not to change the theme, but to add a bit more variety to the deck, as well as create more DARK targets for Simorgh. Also, there's the fact that Bora is easier to Summon than Garuda, and has a better effect, better stats, and the same versatility with Icarus Attack and Swallow's Nest.

 

And there isn't much of a surprise value to Burden. But if you're dead set on using it...

-1 Rising Air Current

+1 Burden

 

and as for Simorgh, if you're not running 2, then there is no good reason to run 2 Anti-Spell Fragrances, as they slow down the deck.

More of the same card means a higher chance of drawing it.

Okay, so maybe it's not really entering Blackwing territory, but Bora's easier to summon than Garuda? Hmmm....Considering the changes you were suggesting, I'll only have a mere three Blackwing monsters in my deck. I want to special summon Garuda (Again, that's my purpose for using Garuda), then be able to normal summon after that, mainly for field presence with another monster or possibly normal summoning a tuner for synchro summoning. I don't think I want to wait to control another Blackwing to special summon Bora. ^^; Also, sorry, but blackwing Synchros are out of the question for me. I'm kinda stubborn like that.

 

Hmm....Anti-Spell Fragrance...the main reason is to make opponent spells vulnerable to Hunting Ground and Battlestorm. Dark Simorgh, to put things bluntly, is an added bonus, as I'm not always trying to bring it out, even if I were to run two (but don't get me wrong, it's an AMAZING card and I'd pop that bastard in my deck anyday :D). The same thing goes with my Synchro monsters. To tell you the truth, I was a bit reluctant to use synchros due to so much "brokenage." lolz So yeahhh, more added bonuses. My deck's main purpose is for backrow destruction and I guess "semi-swarm?" (because it loves to search and special summon)

 

Now, back to Dark Simorgh. I'd LOVE to run two if I could get my hands on another one. Plus, it's my favorite monster. <333

 

As for the surprise value, I was referring to Shrink and Mirror Wall. :) As for Burden, I might consider your suggestion of running a second one.

 

All in all, I guess it just depends on HOW the player wants to use the deck, and what the objectives are (especially in that first paragraph lolz). I just want to have fun with it, really. :3

 

Oh, and sorry if I came off as rude. ^^;

This is what it seems like I see: Garuda fills the role of the Deck better, but Bora is a better card all around. It is easier to Summon in general (remember, Garuda can't be Normal Summoned), has better stats, and a better effect. You don't have to wait to Normal Summon Bora, whereas you do have to wait for Garuda.

 

I stand by my fix and this one:

 

-1 Battlestorm

+1 Sangan

 

Searches a good portion of your deck and is a DARK for Simorgh.

Oh, yes....AAAAAND....

 

-1 Mist Valley Shaman

-1 Anti-Spell Fragrance

-1 Shrink

-1 Icarus Attack

-1 Rising Air Current

 

+2 Dimensional Prison

+2 Bottomless Trap Hole

+1 Shield Wing

+1 Ally of Justice Catastor (for the lulz)

 

Although the deck works so far, I'm thinking of cutting down its size. xD
