The Dark One Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Ok, I did post a Macro Cosmos Return deck some time ago, but with the mid-format changes to the list, 2 things happened. 1. The removal of certain cards in this deck opens up a few free spaces. (And this is still ok, as restricted/banned cards will also be eliminating in opposing strategies.) 2. DAD takes a hit, and other decks have a larger chance of competing. So I have edited the previous version of the deck, but using 2 copies of A Cat of Ill Omen. I see this card as the future of all Return strategies, as, though it was previously too slow, it can reliably pull Return from your deck, along with other important traps. This meshes well with Macro Cosmos decks, since Macro Cosmos is trap, thus giving me a 3rd and 4th copy of Macro Cosmos in addition to the real 2 I am running and the 3 Dimensional Fissures. I can also pull Crush Card Virus from the deck, which is invaluable, considering the card's brokenness. I am not running Mirror Force or Torrential Tribute here, but due to the modification of the build to include Cats, I think it would be prudent to at least run Torrential Tribute. So the question falls, what should be replaced? Turbo Cosmos ReturnMonsters: 203 Cyber Valley3 D.D. Survivor3 D.D.

The Dark One Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Yes, that is a card I wanted to make room for, but I don't know what to cut. I'm not even running an optimal level of Cats. I'd prefer 3. Controller is the only thing I can really think of that could go, and then should I run a 3rd cat or a single mask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark One Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Unfortunately, it's also good for slowing me down. And then I'd have a 42 card deck. Also, DAD got a lot slower with the mid-list changes. While this deck took a bit of a hit as well, its probably closer to DAD's speed than it was before.

Tickle Me Emo Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 you might want a second Darklord Zerato as a backup since it kills itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted May 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Eh, I don't know. It kills itself, but in the process sets up for an OTK. It shouldn't matter. Still, I am considering it, if only because he's level 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
