GenzoTheHarpist Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yes, games may now last to turn six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
「tea.leaf」 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yes' date=' games may now last to turn six.[/quote'] I lol'd. It's only because Konami hit the wrong cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chevalier Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 It's definitely slower, I won't put a definite number for average turn count but it will substantially lower. Slower Decks such as Monarchs, GBs, and Monarchs have room to act but I wouldn't test the format's speed too much by running something slower.

Toffee. Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 lol turn 6And the day that Batteryman and Fish/Ninja/Plant Control become the new meta, is the day that DAD, JD, and all the GOOD gladiator cards get banned. But sadly, That day is a LONG way off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiranui Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Chevalier you said Monarchs twice :lol: Anyway...since LS is basically unaffected, people who do run it will be at the top still because of how fast it runs. The others...as long as they don't face LS then they'll have more of a chance. GB's will be Monarchs I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PikaPerson01 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Did Lightsworn stop existing? <_< Granted, they trade speed for consistency... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orphaned_godzilla Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Light Sworn hasn't been touched so there is still a huge speed problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiranui Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 not really a problem...more of a discrepancy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Did Lightsworn stop existing? <_< Granted' date=' they trade speed for consistency...[/quote'] Do you mean they trade consistency for speed, or are you simply implying that new format Lightsworn will be built to a slower but more reliable model?

Guest PikaPerson01 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 ... I meant that, though lightlords.dek is very fast, it's also rather inconsistent, AKA exactly what I already typed. <_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiranui Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 So in that respect their similar to six samurai? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenzoTheHarpist Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 LS was always slower then Teledad to start with, and being faster doesn't = better, it just so happened that Teledad was fast and consistent. LS players will sometimes experience the horror of the three-honest mill and a hand of Wulfs. Or milling important spells and traps. Meanwhile strong and consistent anti-meta decks will beat it. LS was pretty resistant to anti-meta decks in the past, but this was only because most of the tech in those decks were focused on the teledad matchup. I forsee the speed being slower and LS also slowing a bit down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonisanoob Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 urrrm, i think duels will be more fun to say the least =3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 urrrm' date=' i think duels will be more fun to say the least =3[/quote'] This since we would be seeing a number of deck types, especially with Summon Priest coming out soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas★Zero Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 it will let other players have a good chance of having more chance against the good decks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho Shocker Android Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Have you all forgot that we are getting dark strike fighter? I'm still testing but I kill on turn 2 or 3 quite often. With decks sush as demise and plants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenzoTheHarpist Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 That's a good point, decks must be prepared to deal with him. Demise is getting better as well as it's Dive Bomber OTK is more consistent than any of the other ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werewolfjedi Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 village beatdown will actually have chance now at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilhorus Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Will it, Jedi? I Think the meta's best decks will be the following in order: 1. Lightsworn/Twilight2. Tele-DAD (if it somehow happens to exist)3. Gladiator Beasts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant that' date=' though lightlords.dek is very fast, it's also rather inconsistent, AKA exactly what I already typed. <_<[/quote'] No, you said that Lightsworn would trade speed for consistency. Meaning: Give up speed in order to increase consistency. That's why I asked whether it was a typo, or you believed that a slower model would be developed.

The Crimson King Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Will Wanghu-Burden decks have as big of an impact on this upcoming meta as the current one? I sure as hell hope so since that's all I really have to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tele-DAD (if it somehow happens to exist)3. Gladiator Beasts[/quote'] yes it will, it actually does really well over here. and just to say, my advanced build can top 8 in traditional, where chaos and yata lock get wins really fast. the point of village is to slow you down, so I can repeatedly bash in your head. all meta level decks rely on their spells to a fault, and I rob them of being allowed to use them.

Bunter Dwayne Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Isn't there gonna be new Monarch support in Ancient Prophecy? I heard a rumour. And with Raiza down to 2, they'll become a whole lot better. But, yes, the meta will be slower. Against a good Tele-DAD, I lose in about 7-10 turns. Against LS, 15-20 turns IF I lose. And Glads, about 20-25 turns. So now it will be slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
