Notes

  • Gemini Elf can be replaced with Neo the Magical Swordsman or Mist Valley Watcher. Legion the Fiend Jester can be replaced by Blue Dragon Summoner.
  • Stall the entire game with Labyrinth Wall.
  • While stalling, try to deck out as quickly as possible with your draw effects.
  • Use Wonder Wand on your Gravekeeper's Recruiter or Blue Dragon Summoner, this way you can draw more cards from your deck and fetch another monster from your deck.
  • Use White Elephant's Gift to send Gemini Elf to your graveyard and draw 2 cards. Remember to keep at least 1 Gemini Elf in your hand for your final turn.
  • During you final turn, put Labyrinth Wall in attack position and then activate Shield and Sword before summoning Gemini Elf. Then use Double Summon to summon Gravekeeper's Vassal.
  • If you are using Mist Valley Watcher summon him first before using Shield and Sword.

Notes

  • Summon Ojama Knight or Ojama King as early as possible. They have enough defense to stall Mai's strongest monsters and with 0 attack Mai cannot use Amazoness Fighting Spirit to boost her attack.
  • After that just keep stalling until you deck out. Ojama Blue and Jar of Greed helps you get Ojamas out of your deck, King of the Swamp helps you search Polymerization in your deck. You can also use these cards to help fusion summon Ojama Knight earlier, if you have not yet.
  • During your final turn, have 2 face-up attack position Ojama Knight then use Ojama Country. Normal Summon Gravekeeper's Vassal then use Secret Pass to the Treasures and 2 Union Attack on him. Direct attack for over 9999 damage assessment.
  • Restart is only for consistency boosting. This deck can work without any skill, so you can use it for skill farming.

10 duels with more 7000k and neither SR. 10 duels against Jessie: 7 UR (1 reflective) and 7 SR (2 glossy). Nice work Konami declining the rate of Mai. I`m thinking why... rats.

I'm veteran player and I can tell you that's not the case.

Drop rate of LD in DM has always been freaking low. I guess konami raise the drop rate for GX after players file their complaints.

P/s: I got my third sage by SR ticket last year, then she drop her 4th... Same to weevil's cards.

Dont agree. It`s really strange and this is not the one player who I was farming farming. When I farmed Joey, Rex, Yugi and Tea in overall I got as minimum 2 or 3 SR in 5 duels.

How? Her highest attack monster is tiger, which maxes out at 3500 attack against gate guardian and 2500 attack against labyrinth wall.

gate guarian has 3750 atk, how did something with 3500 atk at max go over it

Well, she does have 2 Fighting Spirit, so it's certainly possible for her to get over Gate Guardian. I wouldn't say it's easy for her to do so, though. And Labyrinth Wall should be straight impossible for her to get over.

such bull**** i cant stall at all against her either with labyrinth wall or with elements unite

why you can't? I'm usuing that deck and no one of her monster can pass 3000 def

Is there a reason you wouldn't be able to use a fusion monster like Thunder Dragon in the labyrinth builder deck? I'm not seeing any cards that would interfere, and I don't have double summon.

Power of Tributed Ra Sylvans work at all with this?

I used the Ojama deck with labyrinth builder. The problems I faces before this skill change was that restart is now needed and so if you don't get what you need, it's gonna be tough. However with the labyrinth skill you're just recycling the cards and can stall until you get them back.

The Ojama Deck worked perfectly

In case people still looking for easy fa deck, you can easily farm her with Labyrinth Buider.

Ironically, you need to farm to get Lab Builder. Use Elements unite instead because she doesn't have anything against it at lvl 40.

Element united's deck is very bad if you don't recover your life point as fast as posible you could lost with amazoness archer since there are amazoness village it'll be useless to destroy her monster.

Thanks for suggesting.
I am going to go with (2) gift of the martyr (1) riryoku.
but seriously what is use of piranha army in a farming deck.
<< Anonymous
akubane Reply
piranha is for the 10k damage. summon piranha, use pass, use riryoku, play gift or 2 and attack with double combat damage.

Not that I know of.... You COULD use a form of unity THEN use something along the lines of shield and sword/ojama country

You can farm Yugi Moto for it, you know. don't have to get it from event
Confused AF
So i tried out the lab builder, and for some reason, whenever Mai puts out Amazoness Archer, if she doesn't activate it's effect to damage you, it beats her to death against your wall

Ojama works great. I got 2 swords woman. Luckily, I didnt waste my SR tickets on them.
