So now, as the "Super Ultimate Strong R0XXor" Lightsworn cards turned out to be crap, I will now bring the post I already announced in my last one:
Guardian EatosWind/Fairy - Effect/8/2500/2000
If there are no Monster Cards in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. By sending 1 Equip Spell Card equipped to this card to the Graveyard, select up to 3 Monsters in your opponent's Graveyard and remove them from play. For each monster removed from play by this effect, this card gains 500 ATK until the End Phase.
Sound realy powerfull,doesn't it? Simply bring a 2500 Beatstick from your hand to the field. Only condition: Your graveyard has to be empty.
So, how can we keep our graveyard free of monsters?
There are two possible ways:
- Add a complex shift engine
- Use Dimensional Fissure and Macrocosmos
It should be obvisious which way we should choose.
In Japan, a deck build after this concept made the first,3rd and 8th place out of 63 players, beating Lightsworn, Zombies and Gladiators.
Here is the list:
Monsters: 12
3x Beast King Barbaros
2x Crusader of Endymion
3x Guardian Airtos
1x Elemental Hero Stratos
3x Elemental Hero Neos Alius
Spells: 13
1x Reinforcement of the Army
3x Dimensional Fissure
2x Book of Moon
2x Forbidden Chalice
3x Dual Spark
2x E-Emergency Call
Traps: 15
3x Dark Bribe
2x Bottomless Trap Hole
1x Mirror Force
1x Solemn Jugdment
2x Macro Cosmos
3x Starlight Road
3x Skill Drain
At first,there is a modification to do:
Starlight Road is far away from beeing released in TCG, so kick it.
I realy think that playing Dual Spark with Crusader Of Endymnion is a very good idea, but I don't want to leave D.D. Survivor out of this deck.
2 E-Call for 4 targets while already playing Reinforcement is far too much I think, let's also kick those.
So,we have 9 free slots now,how can we use them?
If it happens that a monster lands in our graveyard, we have no way to get it out of there, so Eatos I a dead card. And what do we do with dead cards? Correctly, try to discard it. As Barbaros and Eatos are level 8, we can play 2 Trade In for more speed.
Also, I'd like to add a third copy of Macrocosmos, becaus we realy need to draw one of those cards on our starting hand.
As aditional card to discard a dead Eatos, let's add a pair of Lightning Vortex. It the current format, Blackwings and Lightsworns can easy swarm the field, and we have to get rid of our dead copies of Skill Drain, Dimensional Fissure and Cosmos. For more monster protection, let's also add a pair of Prisons.
Last but not least, our 3 Survivors will join the party.
So,here is our list:
Monsters: 13
3x Beast King Barbaros
3x D.D. Survivor
3x Guardian Eatos
1x Elemental Hero Stratos
3x Elemental Hero Neos Alius
Spells: 12
1x Reinforcement of the Army
3x Dimensional Fissure
2x Book of Moon
2x Trade In
2x Forbidden Chalice
2x Lightning Vortex
Traps: 15
3x Dark Bribe
2x Bottomless Trap Hole
2x Dimensional Prison
1x Mirror Force
1x Solemn Jugdment
3x Macro Cosmos
3x Skill Drain
of course, it would be much mor edevastating with Starlight Road, as it can negate 2 mass destruction effects, one by it's own effect and one with the Stardust it summons, but as we don't have it yet, we have to play without it. I still think that this deck will be the Number 1 Anti-Meta Deck, packed with Skill Drain AND Cosmos/Fissure AND large beaters.
My other articles this week will deal with Dark Simorg, Silver Wind, and last but not least, the fortune Ladies. I chose not to say anything about the new Ritual Support because Nimroid Hellfire already wrote a very good article about it.
Thanks for reading, I hope to see all of you at Card Wars Vol. 3 ;)
Thanks a lot for the decklist, that is a way of playing an eatos deck i really like, though i do not know if 2 chalice are not to much of a death draw and even though you have six level 8 monsters it will be hard to draw all those cards (trade in + level 8).
AntwortenLöschenI am going to try this version out too.
