Strider Tigerwolf Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 For all who have seen Deadliest Warrior, this thread is going to be very similar to that. Objective: To pit two decks, archtypes, combos, etc. against each other and see how they would fare against each other, if it is unfair advantage or if there are some strange combos that both could do. After a week, the discussion will move on to two other decks, archtypes, combos, etc. like episodes. Only club members can PM me about archtypes or decks they want to pit against each other. These requests will put on a "hold" list. How can members join?

Strider Tigerwolf Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Accepted. So what's your stand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MortalKombatSmoke Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Well, in Pure Gishki vs. Pure Laval, Gishki obviously stands as the dominant force with its mass recycling and easily obtainable boss cards, which the lavals by themselves cannot compete against. HOWEVER in Pure Gishki vs. Flamelavals, Lavals and Flames, especially in decks that focus on the 200 DEF, take an advantage over pure gishkis. I know it seems like a longshot but I know from experience that Lavals with Flames are a force to be reckoned with even WITH Gishkis. Tainted Gishki (as I call them) vs. Flamelavals, Gishki, once again, comes up dominant. Gishkis are suprisingly adaptable to certain cards like heros and lightsworns which makes them a strong force on the battlefield against lavals. so overall I say that Gishki's are the winners.

Strider Tigerwolf Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Added! As for the Gishki vs. Laval, it seems that both decks are an "unfair" match up against each other. Lavals seem to use banish plays so many time and build up their Grave so quickly that Rekindling overpowers them massivly in 1 turn. Hmm, some testing may be in issue.

Strider Tigerwolf Posted December 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Okay, I'm updating. Gishki vs. Lavals...so far, Gishkies prove to be flexible with quite a few other archtypes as well as stand out on their own, while Lavals seems to use Laval200 as their best deck. There are note worthy cards that make both decks run well. For Gishkies: Ceremonial Mirror, Level 8/6 Rituals and Gishki Shadow are the main focus of the deck. They provide the deck with recycle, beatdown, and search tactics that pretty much turn the tide for them or set up for good plays. For Lavals: Sweltering Heat Transmission Field, Laval Cannoneer, Tender, and Laval Lady make the most noteworthy plays of all. Sweltering and Tender act as extra Foolish Burials for quick graveyard set ups, Lady clears out face-downs and sets up for Cannoneer who is used as Synchro Fodder with Laval Lady or Tender (both which can be banished thanks to Lady). Both set ups are of moderate difficulty to establish and not that difficult to put up. What caught my attention was how both Deck Types have synchage with the Lightsworn Archtype. O_o both have OTKs with the archtype. I have to say that I still prefer Laval200 as its easier to set up (IMO) is easier to pull off and most of the time the opponent won't get rid of a mass beater like Nova Dragon. Lavals...are winning in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 It would help if you could actually spell archetype correctly. [spoiler=Cursed Reaction] Favourite Arch[b]e[/b]type: None. Favourite Spell: None. Favourite Trap: None. Favourite Monster: None. Least Favorite Arch[b]e[/b]type: None. Least Favorite Spell: None. Least Favorite Trap: Self-Destruct Button Least Favorite Monster: Exodia. [/spoiler] The answer to the question is Gishkis. To be honest, there's no argument on it. At the end of the day, Rekindling cannot be recycled. Ceremonial Mirror can. Lavals rely on one card. Gishkis don't. Lavals' only deck in existence is Laval200. Gishkis have at least 3. i.e. Lavals are predictable, Gishkis aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Tigerwolf Posted December 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Well when it comes to that its true. But in true virtue of power, Lavals still win. Just because you can see what's going to happen, doesn't usually mean you can stop it~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
