[TCG/OCG] Amorphage (Post SHVI)

[Βyakuya]

MONSTERS(19)

 

The Draco- Dudes(7)

x1 Vector Pendulum (funk your scales)

x2 Lecter Pendulum (funk your Wizard/Joker)

x3 Luster Pendulum (The Pendulum "+" Master)

x1 Amorphactor Psycho (Love Factor as a one of to prevent clog but still should be powerful and versatile)

 

The Chimera/Virus things(12)

x2 Amorphage Cavum (Cannot activate cards in a chain, Can be PS'd)

x2 Amorphage Gastr (Cannot activate Monster effs)

x2 Amorphage Plest (Cannot activate Traps, Can be PS'd)

x2 Amorphage Nortes (Cannot search Deck)

x2 Amorphage Lux (Cannot activate Spells)

x2 Amorphage Olga (Cannot tribute Monsters, Can be PS'd)

 

SPELLS (12)

 

x2 Clash of Dracorivals/Draco Face-Off (Filters your Draco stuff nicely. At 2 since I don't want to fill the scale too much)

x3 Wavering Eyes (Floodgate reset, basically. It's balls off the wall with Infection and Lysis)

x3 Amorphage Infection (Searches any Amorphage card off a tribute/destruction. Great card in multiples)

x2 Amorphous Persona (Activate 1, replace it with another, and can use Ritual Summon later. Still a great boon/boost card)

x2 Enemy Controller (Triggers Infection during their turn, and takes advantage of stolen monster and effs if possible)

 

TRAPS (9)
 

x2 Amorphage Lysis (Scale replacement. Wavering Eyes is crack with this)

x3 Solemn Notice (Screw over anything in case Gastr not available as a scale)

x3 Horn of Heaven (Wonderful card that flips off summons and triggers Infection during their turn. Also funk Pendulums.)

x1 Vanity's Emptiness (It'll never die in this deck 93.76865% of the time. That said, it's tricky but can be abused for overkill)

 

EXTRA DECK (15)

 

Generic Extra sheet something like Pepe would have.

 

 

 

Here's a prototype of an Amorphage Deck I might as well try on DN/Devpro soon. General Thoughts?

How are you gonna whip out Psycho consistently with only 1? Or is that just icing on the cake for this build?

It's the icing on the cake. By the looks of how mediocre the spells are, I care about making the engine work and trolling a priority. The big boss only comes after everything is set into place. I don't want to risk dead drawing multiple Psychos or having a chance of opening any at all.

 

For now I'll test if the deck can support itself on its own, and if Psycho is the win con the deck needs I'll support him more of needed.

Take this as a grain of salt since I have not made any tests, but just from theory I feel one should be running the maximum amount of Dracorivals/Face-off, mostly because of the card advantage it offers, plus with the Dracoverlord newcomer now one can main enough targets for it to reduce the risk of the card ending up dead; not that the latter was a big issue from what I have gathered, since you could simply put targets back into the Deck with Emeral.

 

Also the Field Spell made me think of the 2 Chicken Game + 2 Terraforming engine for deck thinning, but I don't know if it would be welcomed or needed in your deck.

Well you can't really make Emeral consistently in Amorphages anyway. I might as well experiment with the ratios of the Draco stuff and Clash, but I only placed 2 for now because I wanted to see if gathering the floodgate scales were important, though filtering with Luster is still pretty good. I'll boost Clash if I need to through testing.

 

I don't really like Chicken Game in this deck though. It's not the kind to go turbo or needs too much of hand advantage. The Field can be searched by Infection anyway.

Why no Amorphage Irritum? Also, Pot of Riches or maybe Pendulum Reborn seem useful for recovering the Amorphages that can't be Pendulum Summoned. For Pot of Riches, its downside of being unable to SS except by Pendulum Summon doesn't seem very bad, as the Amorphage's effects make it difficult to access Xyz/Synchro anyway.

I found a hard time trying to find space for Irritum. I was being ambivalent about its stats and how effective it would be, though placing him might disrupt some ratios. I can just experiment by taking out Olga since he's the most meh out of my deck so far. Pot of Riches was a consideration, but due to space issues it was not a priority. Taking out Enemy Controllers might be something. Reborn is similar to Riches' goal as to revive and recycle non-Pendulum-able Amorphages, but Riches is faster and can lead to better +s. I'll try to get to testing these soon and making a verdict.
