Book of moon y? Eclipse or Swords of Concealing are usually better options

 

MST over Twin Twisters y? Seems to me like you'd be better off siding the MSTs instead, especially while Demise exists.

 

One more strike may be a good ratio. Brilliant spark is also a questionable choice, since it just inflicts some damage to your opponent. If you're going into time, great, but I think it may be more of a side card.

ngl this looks bad

 

why are you running so many vanillas

 

where is lapis

 

where is block dragon, at least 1 of it

 

where is magnet reverse

 

why are your ED ratios so bad

 

why is emeral your only xyz when it's not even that good here

 

why MST over TT when this deck dies to any backrow and has synergy potential with TT

 

why would you ever run traps, much less the bad g-k traps

tbf emeral synergizes with his strangely high number of vanillas

No, it doesn't.

 

It's an illusory synergy that people insist on, but if you're making emeral, 9/10, you had access to a vanilla. And you don't need to make Emeral just to go into the semi-specific ones.

Wow/

You need lapis in order to run lapis lazuli

Gem-knights are highly OTK-oriented so there shouldn't be that many traps

why 2x Tourmaline AND 3x Amber? The deck doesn't need that many thunder-type monsters. you could shoot for 3x of one, but not both (alternately you could tech 3x Thunder Dragon)

Rescue Rabbit is great, tbh (could do 3x Tourmaline with this, but idk). makes any Xyz plays easier and puts mats on board

and Gem-knight Ruby isn't all that great

 

A cute engine idea I saw somewhere was to use winged kuriboh, brilliant fusion, and sabatiel - philosopher stone to make gem-knight fusion easily searchable.

K, just a quick question. Can I Summon the Fusions with Release From Stone? Just concerned. Anyways, to answer the comments.

Snatch Steal: BOM because I can flip a monster Summoned with Brilliant Fusion, restoring its stats. But yea, another Strike and TT would be a better option.

Black: I do not need Lapis because I got GKLBD, but I run 1 in the Side Deck. What is block dragon? I am testing with TCG only, but it is a good card. The multiple choices of the "Weak" monsters are just for Lapis Lazuli to mill and for Master Diamond to banish. And any extras is because it is a must-have card. This Deck comes down to Fusion Summoning, and an Emeral is there because I usually if not always have at least 1 non-Effect monster in the Grave. I also have extra Xyz in the Side Deck. Brilliant Spark should always at least be one, because the burn damage is awesome. Solemn Strike and Warning are for control, and RFS is for retrieving the banished, but you are right; the other G-K Traps are bad. I'll get rid of them.

Banddude: What Sander said. I am covering that, but there aren't as much Traps as you actually think there are. Amber can be the heart for a pretty cool OTK trick I found out, and Tourmaline is just a filler for vanillas, and Thunder Dragon can only be used to Fusion Summon Seraphite and Topaz, and on which the latter I might even remove for a Citrine. In Side Deck. Ok, I will give you that Ruby isn't that great, but like I said before, it is for Master Diamond. But I might remove him for a Citrine. Thx for the comments!

That's... not a reason. You don't want to HAVE to use Brilliant Diamond to make Lady, it's such poor logic.

 

You should be running Lapis, because she's the only vanilla with an amazing name, though tourmaline's is decent.

 

You have far too many vanillas, and they're going to cause you losses.

 

You only need:

2-3 Garnet

2-3 Lapis

1-2 Amber

0-1 Tourmaline

 

for vanillas, though running approximately 8 of them is optimal

 

Fusion Summoning =/= not having better ED construction, between better fusion choices and better Xyz choices.

 

brilliant spark is garbage

 

This isn't a control deck. Don't force the deck to be what it isn't. It's a burst and OTK deck.

 

And Magnet Reverse is a funking card that's way better than release from stone =x
