itt: people convince me that Dekatron makes Infernoid better (TCG Infernoid)

[ihop]

[Wildflame]

Why BLS?

[Ryusei the Morning Star]

Cause AzneEyes is god

I was going to suggest a burning abyss engine but just remembered TGU got limited

[ihop]

It's big (couldn't think of a better card)

[CLG Klavier]

Why shouldn't an in-theme level manipulative Tuner Mathematician that copies names and effects that's also a Reasoning target make the deck better as opposed to a bunch of random Lightsworns to hope for lucky mills?

[ihop]

a) No charge

b) Reasoning's a moot point since they'll always declare 1

c) No searchable Djinn out

d) Milling 1 isn't always better than milling 2 random ones

[CLG Klavier]

1) More actually good cards then

2) Sure but Monster Gate and One for One are things as well, and I actually meant that it ends a Reasoning so all the shit gets milled

3) I dunno how much of a Djinn out Ehren is when their Djinn is on something bigger in attack mode, plus you run 2 Charge 1 Ehren, so it's 3. 3 Dekatron lets you toolbox out an Antra or Harmadik (or was it Patrulea who killed monsters?) to get rid of the Djinn'd-up thing.

4) Granted you hit the 2 random ones. Plus Dekatron is a floodgate out.

[ihop]

whoops, I forgot Dekatron's a Djinn out too. The issue I still have is that Dekatron means you're kinda relying on reasoning or else you're in a very bad position, whereas if you Charge into a Raiden (or, even better, mill a lightsworn so you can get Lumina) you get 7 mills which can easily get you into the game without Reasoning.

[DuelSpectre]

No Breakthrough Skill / Void Vanishment?

I mean, I get what you're going at, but I still don't feel that LS are the way to patch up the lack of Card Des/Monster Gates. They're still painfully slow, CotLB aside.

[ihop]

BTS should be in the side, Vanishment is lame.

[DuelSpectre]

That's why you draw Reasoning T1 and play it before you show your Infernoids. That's how Reasoning works. Plus, you could run Card Trooper.

[ihop]

That would lead me to think that it's either Infernoids or a bad deck that I can beat anyway, regardless of what number I choose.

[CLG Klavier]

Guys goddamnit. Reasoning isn't important for the summon, only the mill. Monster Gate is the summoning one. And exactly why this deck is bad in TCG, we have only 1 Gate.

[Ryusei the Morning Star]

The only "fast" light sworn is Raiden..wouldn't you better off Running just charge and him while going for synchro and xyz plays with Dek? Depending on what Rekindeling is at in TCG you can use that for mid game pushes and xyz's. The key is running a mix of different levels. End of Anubis maybe? Or a Jinzo. DMoC when TCG unbans in July..etc

[Expelsword]

If you don't already believe that Dekatron is good, then you clearly cannot be convinced; you are simply beyond logic.

 

You can't use it in the TCG right now anyway, so your deck looks ok except for BLS. What is that doing there?

[DuelSpectre]

It's big (couldn't think of a better card)

[Expelsword]

Because your ONE DARK in the entire deck (Big Eye) is definitely going to make BLS live ever.

[ihop]

LOL they're FIRE.

 

Whoops, any suggestions of what to put in instead?

[Blake]

TBH, you can just side dekatron. It's basically a weird djinn out/MST with legs for the deck. I believe the OCG even used it as such.

[Expelsword]

Something defensive, like Skill Prisoner

[Maeriberii Haan]

Why would you use Skill prisoner here

[ihop]

Skill Prisoner seems worse than a 3rd Void Seer and I don't want that either. Stuff it, I'll play a 3rd Attondel, I think I'm only biased against that card because I've only tested against Qli.

[Ryusei the Morning Star]

Pretty much only that though. It's being largely taken out of the main due to being to easy to call "1" with reasoning. Like I said, you need a nice blend of levels. 

 

Ex:

 

1 Dek (1)

2 Stein (2)

2 TKRO (4)

1 EoA (6)

1 DMoC (8)

 

What are you gonna call now? Hmm?

[Expelsword]

Skill Prisoner is underrated.
