ALCHEMIST

I think he means Advanced Format, because he said not to use any forbidden cards.

(The new March 2010 ban list sucks, sadly...)

Will it really matter if the paint gets chipped off, seeing as the zombie's blood alone will probably cover most of the Lamborgini anyways? If I were running over zombies with a Lamborgini, I would worry more about my tires and rims more than the paint job... but that's just me.

Hello and welcome to Project Pokemon! :biggrin: I'm sure you will be able to help out in some way on this forum. Enjoy your stay!

Sorry, its been a few days since my last post.

I don't have much time to reply to everything right now, but when I said I might build a Blackwing deck, I forgot to put this smiley :rolleyes: after it. I was just joking around.

Sorry, its been awhile because school just started back up here... (I HAD 4 HRS. OF HOMEWORK FROM 3 CLASSES ON THE FIRST DAY!!!!!)

I got lucky and found 2 Aster Phoenix Booster Boxes for under $20 yesterday though! I've never really had many D Heros so this was a lucky find... I got everything but Destiny Hero Malicious out of it... including 2 Destiny Draws!

Too bad the shopkeeper is so fixiated on MTG and Naruto right now... I'd clean the floor with him!

Yeah, it has been quite a while. I've only been able to get online for short periods of time lately because school just started back up here too... and it sucks SO much! I just started high school, and already I'm in way over my head... ( 5 honors classes, 1 A.P. Human Geography class, and a freakin' journalism class to help make the school's yearbook) with 3 essays, 2 projects, and a damn V.I.S. chart on the first week. I feel your pain, dude...

Sorry... got a bit off topic there... but anyways, you are so lucky! D Draws are now unlimited, so they are very usable. The new ban list crippled my Demise OTK, so I'm thinking about running Gladiator Beasts in its place... or perhaps Blackwings. The Earthbound deck is doing great, and my Monarchs got a boost with Raiza back at 3. I probably won't be able to be on for a while, so sorry if I don't reply for a day or two when you do post.

Granted, so much that you die from alcohol poisoning.

I wish I didn't have so much schoolwork to do today.

Normally I don't involve myself in these discussions on message boards. But I will say this: you can never have a big group of people that are all "one way". Not every Islamic person is a terrorist, not every German was / is a Nazi. So on and so on.

Unfortunately, people are always going to carry their pre-conceptions about other people. Whether they know it or not, or consciously act on it or not, every single human being is racist on some level.

Couldn't have been said any better.

I myself am not a muslim, nor do I say that I believe in any religion whatsoever. I consider myself to be agnostic, believing that the claims of there being or not being a god, deities, or an afterlife are ultimately unknowable. I still respect people for there beliefs/non beliefs, regardless of a few bad apples in the bunch, and believe that we should all be respectful to one another regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, background, etc. . What I dislike is when people bash each other over such things, because they have absolutely no right to force there opinions on others just because they believe they are right, and everybody else is wrong. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and just that. It is just like saying everyone who likes chocolate has good taste, while everyone else sucks because they like vanilla, or another flavor. Nobody is right, nor is anyone wrong. However, so long as there are ignorant, foolish people (such as a few people on Serebii.net) trying to start an argument over such trivial things, there will be conflict. Unfortunately, until people can just learn to accept that everyone is unique and entitled to their beliefs and opinions, this will remain unchanged.

[/rant]

Sorry if I offended anyone, this is just what I believe.

Granted, but you become miserable with your spouse and get a divorce, losing half of all of your possessions in the process. You later realize that you got a painful, and debilitating STD from them and live the remainder of your life in agony.

I wish people would stop wishing for such obscene or grotesque things on this thread.

2. I side a few just for that reason...

3. Just be careful you aren't playing against a normal swarming deck! (1)

4. It's that way there too? I still beat him on a regular basis because he usually just throws a lot of related cards together. When Gladiator's Assault came out, a lot of players around town came together a had a tournament and he was playing straight Cloudians. He made it to the final round, but I had beaten him in the preliminaries with a throwtogether Six Samurai deck (2 Shiens, no Chancellors, no grandmasters). (2)

1. Actually, my friend just built one... and had me face it with my three decks... it was fun, but annoying at the same time.

2. Yeah, but it's strange, though... his competitive decks consist of overused archetypes (like Blackwings, Gladiator Beasts, as well as the always annoying STUN deck) as well as normal... well... "fun" decks (insect mill, regular zombie swarm, and dragon decks). Nevertheless, it is still fun to duel them, even if it is a real challenge to win.

I've only had time to update the Earthbound deck today... so here it is (changes in BOLD)

I'll most likely post the Archfiend deck in a day or two, when I'm not busy.

1. Okay, but what about life absorbing machine? Archfiends set up for that combo nicely... (1)

2. Yes, it's meant to look that way...

3. I told you it would save your life... Just be careful about cards like Hero Medal that activate when they would be destroyed while face down... (2)

4. How should I know? I hear of a lot of people siding it in triplicate for those reasons... (3)

5. The hobby store owner here plays one and GETS OTK'S (so to speak) MORE THAN 50% of the time!... But he has almost every card ever released... (4)

1. Yeah, I got those too... my friend ran/ side decked them in triplicate.

2. Actually, about two days ago, I dueled someone who used cards like that. It was VERY annoying, because every time I Heavy, MST, or Twister'ed away their back field, those cards would activate.

3. Sorry I kinda overreacted. It's just when I realized that the card was so great... I just thought of so many possible combos with it...

4. Yeah... that kind of deck can usually mill through more than half of your opponent's deck in a matter of 1 to 3 turns and win a turn or two after. The owner of the hobby store I go to has basically every card too... and he has several tournament winning decks at his disposal... that he always uses against my friends and I.

I've been kind of busy recently... so as soon as I finish updating/ creating the decks, I will most likely post them on this or my next reply. Thanks again for the help and suggestions.

Granted, but your parachute doesn't open and you plummet towards Earth, dying in the process.

I wish I could live forever, never get hurt, sick, or age and always be lucky, and be able to share this ability with friends and family.

Granted but you have nothing to do when it's 2:00 AM and it's all pitch-black and you're not allowed to turn on the lights due to distracting others, you walk around and next thing you realise, you fell outside your unit.

I wish I didn't have so many school assignments.

Sounds basically like what is going on right now... its like 3:30 AM right now where I am and I cannot fall asleep!:frown:

Granted, you now have 100,000,000 times more work!:tongue:

I wish I could fall asleep already!!!

Granted... but you get arrested for hacking a government computer!

I wish I could live without having to sleep.

Granted, :biggrin: but then you can no longer post here.

I wish my birthday wasn't over now!!! T_T

EDIT: Damn... made my post too late... (deleted my previous answer)

Granted, but only shows that other people like, and not ones you like.

I wish I could jump as high as I want at will (not as far as outer space), and would always land safely.

Granted, but now every time Charizard uses Flamethrower, it hits a crate full of volatile and flammable materials that blows up and incinerates you and Charizard.

I wish I could buy a new, unbroken MP4/IPOD, that will never break or get lost or stolen, and it will cost no more than $20, and holds an infinite number of songs/ videos.

(Very interested to see how this will be corrupted :biggrin: )

Hello and welcome. You'll get the hang of making threads eventually... :biggrin: :grog:

1. You have Terrorking and the synchros but not Vilepawn!?... My suggestions are Axe of Despair for sure, errata's made it an Archfiend! It supports with 1000ATK to keep your archfiends on the field as well... Maybe some Pandemonium Watchbears as well, if you're not wanting to waste critical spell/trap zone space with field barrier...

2. Yeah, I just had an idea for a remove from play exodia deck...

3. That's why twister and other cards should clear the way first...

4. Side Curse of Anubis for that...

5. I'm not removing for a specific monster, I'm removing to throw my opponent for a loop and for the mass special summons for my zombies. I'm debating on making this entirely Soul Absorbing Bone Tower oriented... It only says if a zombie is special summoned, not how or from where...

1. Yeah, but I traded my friend who ran an archfiend deck today, so I've got all (and more) of them in multiple copies as well as other cards that I've wanted/ needed for my decks and trade bait.

2. Cool... but it sounds... kind of risky.

3. Yeah, you should have seen the look on my friend's face when I twister'ed his torrential tribute before my Earthbound hit the field, and when later on in the match I did the same to his Delta Crow - Anti Reverse before he could activate it!:tongue:

4.

5. Oh okay, thanks for clarifying that for me. I used to run a zombie mill deck a few months ago, and kick *** with it. It was kinda crazy because I remember I had my opponent mill around 15-20 cards in one turn once. I think one occasion went something like this:

I will most likely edit and post my decks later this week. Thanks again for the help!!!:biggrin:

Granted, but it is damaged and unusable.

I wish that I could win a working PS3.:biggrin:

Granted, but the success probability is EXTREMELY low ( about .00000000000000000000000001 percent chance of working), and if the operation fails, you die.

I wish my school had more computer related classes.

A) Which did/ do you need? I bet I could come up with substitutions... (1)

B) Glad I could help... I don't know how, but my brain tells me these interesting strategies at the most random of moments; I came up with my Exodia deck, which is still not quite finished, in the middle of a final at school, MY ENGLISH ONE!! I couldn't get it out of my head for the life of me and had to ask for more time because it got me so distracted... (2)

C) Which is why I still use cards like Jinzo and Royal Decree, and use twister because it's a unbanned spell with Mystical Space Typhoon equivalency that goes hand in hand with the cards listed above. (3)

D) Stalling how? Spell/ trap negation counters this.

Swarming what? Things like black horn of heaven and Summon Limit (I think that's the name) are good to side for that reason. (4)

E) It's taking advantage of the Dark attribute of plants like regenerating rose to stock my field for free and cards like Dark Crusader to fill my grave while using removing from both graves to special summon for effect and high power. (It's still very rough...) (5)

1. *Checks collection* Hmmm...

2. Thanks! I will be posting the even more updated version later. I know what you mean about the random idea thing too! Actually, it's kind of funny, because I kinda got the Earthbound deck idea during my geography exam a day or two after I first heard about them... and I couldn't get it out of my head... ( Still got an A on the exam, though :grog:) but then I forgot about them, until I pulled Aslla, that is.

3. Good point. It is kinda funny though, because they Solemn'ed my Royal Decree and Force Back'ed my Jinzo when I tried them out :eek: ! I will side deck/ main deck Twister.

4. They stall with not only spell and traps, but with cards like: Tytannial, Princess of Camellias and high defense plant monsters like Hedge Guard. They swarm in way to many ways to stop them with Horn, and Summon Limit (you got the correct name) would screw me over in a bunch of ways, namely in the special summoning aspect of this deck. Thanks for the suggestions though... but do you know of any mass monster removal cards that would work well in this deck?

5. Very interesting concept! One question though... What monster will you be removing for? Or are you going to use a card like Phantom of Chaos for its effect? Aside from that, everything else sounds like a good strategy. I would suggest that you put in Allure of Darkness and perhaps is you have one, Dark Armed Dragon. If you want, I can help you out with the deck as it is the least I can do for all of your help with my deck.

2. I made a deck around that a few years back, Archfiend's actually, it ran pretty well for awhile until there were more spell/trap destruction/negation effects added...

Nice. I've always wanted to run Archfiends... but I could never seem to pull or find the ones I needed...

4. Only use Tragodea if you have some cards to conserve your hand (or throw in some Begone Knave!'s for an interesting stategy. It fills your hand up, and allows you to keep getting out Tragodea! It would also work with your immortal's effect...:cool:)

Wow... did not even think about that combo with Aslla Piscu. Definatly going into the deck one way or another!

6. That's a simple one, try twister. It also works with the LP idea...

That normally would work... but they usually are able to counter it and other threats with a variety of cards like Magic Drain, Solemn, and basically every other counter trap out there, While beating their opponents' faces in with Barbaros and other high attack monsters.

7. Like what? I'm making a plant/Dark/zombie deck right now... (A lot of Phantom Darkness/Crossroads of Chaos cards...)

Stall/ burn/ and swarm types. They either burn my LP down while stalling, or swarm and destroy everything while being supported by cards like Wall of Thorns and Pollinosis.

Also, the deck you are building sounds interesting... how does it work?

If you are going to put in Jinzo, the interdimensional matter transporters would be iffy.

Yeah... I thought about that... but it still can be pulled off as I can simply activate it before Jinzo hits the field, if necessary. (Get rid of Aslla, get effect to clear field and inflict damage, then summon Jinzo and attack!:biggrin:)

As for the entire lifepoint payment/ regain thing... it sounds interesting. I may try this variation sometime. Thanks for the idea!

Anyways, here is my newly updated deck and side deck:

This version has been running great... the only problems I have been facing are Skill Drain decks, and certain variations of plant decks. Thanks again for the help!:biggrin:

I'm wondering why you put in the temporary removal cards, especially dimensionhole...

If it's to protect your Immortals, why not use Jinzo/ some counter traps?

Attribute: Dark

Level:10

Type:Winged Beast

ATK/DEF: 2500/2500

Effect:

"There can only be 1 face-up "Earthbound Immortal" monster on the field. If there is no face-up Field Spell Card on the field, destroy this card. Your opponent cannot select this card as an attack target. This card can attack your opponent directly. When this card is removed from the field, except by its own effect, destroy all face-up monsters your opponent controls, and inflict 800 damage to your opponent for each monster destroyed."

That's why. It doesn't matter how it is removed from the field, or even how long it will be removed for it to get that particular effect. The main problem I faced in my test duels was swarms destroying my tribute fodder or the Earthbound itself by using effects or brute force, so I added those in to help keep my tribute fodder or the Earthbound alive and trigger its effect.

As for the Jinzo/ Counter Trap idea, what do you think I should take out for Jinzo? Also for the counter traps, what do you suggest? I was thinking something like Magic Drain or Solemn... Also I was thinking of adding in an Allure of Darkness or two... what do you think I should take out for them?
