CrabHelmet Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Half-hearted Apprentice engine? Half-hearted Gravekeeper engine? Random United We Stand? Sakuretsu Armour? No Monster Reborn? Magic Cylinder outside of Burn? Granmarg outside of Dark Gaia? 9-Gauge Monarchs with no way to search Treeborn Frog and no other consistent tribute engine? A lot of mistakes here.

Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 But I have Sangan for my Treeborn. GraveKeeper is just to have some tributes and it gets another one onto the field anything else wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Gravekeeper engine is generally 3 Spy + 1 Guard. 1 Sangan isn't enough to get Treeborn out consistently; that's still 2 cards in 42, and you have 9 monarchs. Also, you're missing Raiza and a 3rd Caius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 No I don't run 3 Gravekeeper Spy because it could be a dead draw, and the deck isn't made for the gravekeeper gravekeeper's spy is just an card to help me get the Monarchs out my easy.

Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 And I have a Razia and a third Caius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 3 Spy + 1 Guard is a lot less likely to generate dead draws than 2 Spy is. And an engine is a set of cards that is put in the deck to help the deck, even if it isn't the deck's main theme. You've got a mini-Gravekeeper engine with 2 Spy, but the full Gravekeeper engine is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I guess I will try to run it but I still like my idea better. And is my deck good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I think it's a Monarch control but Thats me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 And what does an Gravekeeper Guard even do? I had one but I never ran the card. and I don't even have anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzaman Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 And what does an Gravekeeper Guard even do? I had one but I never ran the card. and I don't even have anymore.Like Crab said, the whole point of the Guard is to be tribute fodder that can be brought out by the GK engine, so what the Guard does isn't the primary concern.The Guard itself has a Flip effect that bounces, and has 1900 DEF, so it can still be useful in situations where you draw into it. And why only 2 Apprentices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 [ And why only 2 Apprentices? Well because I have 2 Old Vindictive magicans, it's just to get one of those out then flip it next turn it destroys a monster so I can flip it to destroy a monster then I can tribute it for a Monarch.

CrabHelmet Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 That's the problem. You have two half-built engines, Apprentice and Gravekeepers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 That's the problem. You have two half-built engines' date=' Apprentice and Gravekeepers.[/quote'] So what should I do? I think it works really well, if only you could see how it runs, you may change your mind. But my ears are open for any more advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonhero990 Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 another thing i used to do (thought i dont know if its updated) is use YVD to test my new deck idea's vs my current deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Thestalos is infinitely better than Zaborg and Mobius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Thestalos is infinitely better than Zaborg and Mobius. Yeah I think so too. But I may go with the Nimble, but I won't go for MJ2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Should I go for the D.D. warrior lady it seems to be a good card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian_Knows_All Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 9-Gauge Monarchs with no way to search Treeborn Frog and no other consistent tribute engine? A lot of mistakes here.Oh yeah the gravkeeper spy and Apprentice magican. Is another Consistent for tributes. So overall this deck is good right?

SephirothKirby Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 3x Enemy Controller - 1 out for creature swap1x United We Stand - out for 1 creature swap What kind of advice is that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Thestalos is infinitely better than Zaborg and Mobius. Youre only half right there. Its infinitely better than Zaborg and better than Mobius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half a Gravekeeper engine plus half an Apprentice engine does not equal a consistent tribute engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonhero990 Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 well you have alot of low level monsters that 1 have flip effects and 2 or just have low attack so you swap them to your opponent if the timing is right and gain a potentially more powerful monster and do a good deal of life point damage. and im sticking with my comment about mobius and zaborg because field control is more important that hand control unless its a control deck, and yours is not.
