Hello, can anyone tell me how to make plant deck? And which character to use for it, since there is none legendary duelist who uses plant theme, like Weevil uses insect theme. I really like plants

1x Talaya, Princess of Cherry Blossoms
She is a sexy Flower that is dancing.
It is pretty sexy to look at.

This is my monster line up.
I am feeling pretty good about it.

Spells:

1x E.Con
I think most people run at least 1 of this card so I figure I run 1 as well.

2x Storm
I want to use this card to blow my opponents back row up.

I plan to combo it with other cards as well.

2x Wonder Clover
The reason I want to run this card is because it has a Panda bear on it.

I mean who doesn't like Panda Bears.
In addition, You can attack twice.
Seems pretty deadly.

That is all the spells I plan to run.
I don't know if they are good.
However, I am going to try them eventually.

Traps:

1x Windstorm of Etaqua
I think this is a very common card people run. I decided to add it to help for defense.

1x Wild Storm
I will use the Storm with this card for the combo.
In addition, It can 🔥 spell or traps my opponent might have face up.

2x Plant Food Chain
I will use the Storm to combo with this as well.

In addition, I can boost any 1 of my plants by 500 attack.

The skill I plan to use is Balance.

Yeah!
Pretty unusual deck.
I think it is unique.

Will the deck be good?
I don't know!

However, if I lose, I will lose with sexy plants.
I won't be the one losing with ugly plants.
I feel like that makes me a semi-winner.

Hi guys! I want to try this deck out. Any recommendation to my Cosmo Queen Deck? Also what is the best skill that is suited for it in your opinion?

I have last gamble. Would that be great for this deck?

Dont use too much effects for tribute summoning the cosmo queen.
You should use effects to thin up your deck like the blue dragon summoner get the cosmo on hand. In this way I think 2 cosmos are enough.
I think the best skill would be restart to ensure the summoning of your cosmo.

What do you guys think?

Alex

Is there anyway that they could be a tab where they could list like the top 5 decks builds at the moment for each character and who it is strong against? It's a lot easier to find then going to who you want to farm against and what deck is good against that deck etc. It's kind of like going in reverse order to figure out what deck to work on. No offense to the website, you guys are awesome!

This deck works for me but I'm thinking of simplifying. Suggestions?

Reduce to 20 cards to make drawing your best cards easier. Especially remove Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight: with 3 Sphere Kuribohs, it's pretty hard for you to empty your hand.

Looking for advice. Dark paladin deck. Idea is to lock opponent from using spell/trap. I am a f2p player btw so most the URs I only have 1.

Skill balance/Restart (both works)

Monsters
3 Dark Magician
3 Buster blader
3 Mirage Dragon
1 goddess with third eye
1 Mystical sheep #1
1 versago the destroyer
1 Blue Dragon summoner

Spells
3 polymerization
1 Fusion gate
1 Fusion sage

Traps
2 Ultimate Providence (don't have gems for divine wrath)

Extra deck
2 Dark Paladin (got rly lucky with this)
1 Buster Blader, the Destruction Swordsman

And no, I don't play Econ or sphere kuriboh. Why? I don't have those...

IMHO you shouldn't need an F-gate in addition to the other fusion cards. Other thoughts to keep in mind with a D-paladin deck is; -deck searchers help, add another BD summoner if you can. Additionally, options to help you draw more cards / recover cards from your graveyard since you'll be discarding to stop spells once d-paladin is on the field.

Hmm. Didn't think about the discards. I don't really want a Spell for draw (like Shard of greed) since it'll disrupt my guaranteed poly/F-gate in Balance. Maybe Crystal Seer will work?

<< Anonymous

EliteCreator Reply

I would replace your 2 traps with draw cards so when you use balance you have a much higher chance to draw your polymerization cards. Goal is to turn 1 fusion I tested this deck a little bit and it hasn't lost me a game yet I just replaced your 2 traps and the summoner with 3 crystal seer.

The new soul resurrection card might work well in this deck as well I don't have one so I can't test it

Any ideas on how to improve this 1? I'm chasing more kuriboh and Econ. I think another sgt electro would help too

Paramnon

I plan to create a casual-ish deck, do you think this would work:

2x Garlandolf
2x Ritual of Destruction
1x Dark Necrofear
3x Veil of Darkness
3x Djinn Disserere of Rituals
3x Djinn Prognosticator of Rituals
1x Sonic Bird
1x Senju
1x Doomsday Horror
1x Mirror Wall
1x Windstorm of Etaqua
1x Twister

How it works: Play Veil of Darkness, and whenever you draw a Djinn, activate its effect and draw a card.

Your graveyard will be filled with Djinns and you will draw at least an extra card for each turn. Then you can summon Garlandolf using Djinns (of Senju/Sonic if necessary) and if you do, Garlandolf will be unaffacted by trap cards and whenever it inflicts damage to your opponent, s/he will discard 1 card.

Since Garlandolf destroys all monsters with lower DEF than 2500, he is almost guaranteed to directly attack your opponent first turn resulting >2500 damage + and (-1) for your opponent.

You can also special summon Dark Necrofear since Djinns are DARK fiend-type monsters. And you can use all the banished Djinns to empower Doomsday Horror or bring them back.

Do you think that would work?

Even though, I have told you all of these things.

I want you to know that I do think Garlandolf is an awesome Boss monster.
I think you can make an awesome deck with Garlandolf.
I understand you are thinking of using this deck for casual duels.

However, Garlandolf decks have hit King of Games before!

They have some very explosive potential.

The question is will your new idea featuring Veil of Darkness be effective?

I haven't seen anyone else use such an idea with Garlandolf.
It seems like a creative original idea.

Have you done any test with your deck?

<< Anonymous(Player J)

Paramnon Reply

Thank you so much for your advice and no I haven't done any test with this deck because I only have 1 copy of Djinn Prognosticator of rituals and 3 copies of Djinn Disseere, but I am trying to get 2nd copy of Mirror Wall so I will probably get a couple more djinns during the process. So this deck is more like a "side-project" while I am trying to build a main deck.

<< Anonymous(Paramnon)

(continue) And I think -4 can be dodged by never summoning Garlandolf when you do not have adequate amounts of Djinns in your graveyard. You can set Djinns to stall the game for a while since it won't matter if they get destroyed.

Anti Dragon 4 lyfe

Feedback greatly appreciated, currently gold 5, haven't had much time for ranked but I'm confident I can hit plat 1 or 2 with this deck.

Due to problems with posting photos here is my deck.

3x Buster Blader 3x DM 2x Red-Eyes Wyvern
2x Red-Eyes B 3x Blue Dragon Summoner

3x Poly 1x Fusion Gate 1x Fusion Sage 2x Emblem of Dragon Destroyer

1x Dark Paladin 1x Buster Blader, the Dragon Destroyer Swordsman

Any ideas for this dragon deck? I have meteor b. Dragon in my extra deck.

<< Anonymous

Anonymous Reply

if you lacked playable cards in your hand how would you defend in that round? I would consider a "change position card" like windstorm or 'the remote control'

<< Anonymous

Anonymous Reply

Don't bother with Meteor B. Dragon: what's the chance you draw all 3 cards in this deck? Let's say you're down to 10 cards in your deck (about as long as duels take in Duel Links), then you have a 50% * 50% * 50% = 12.5% that you have all 3 cards ready.

Make bots drop cards

Hey guys, i have this DRAGON deck and its working pretty well so far. But i want your advices so it can be better!

I am a F2P player so I dont have many special cards repeatedly. Game on!

It's not a bad deck but I would recommend to get some new dragon cards to replace some of your dragons, from the mokuba event and the new deck.

.. But like anonymous says, change the skill if you wanna run rare metalmorph.

Your deck has some similarities to my original machine deck build!

Depending on how many boxes you have opened.
I think you can make a very great simple machine deck!

The only thing which I want you to keep in mind is their are a 2 types of machine builds.

I think you need to pick the road you want to go on!

Player J Reply

You have the Ship machine builds.
These decks use the spaceship machines such as:

-Viper XX
-BES Big Core
-Gradius

These decks are sort of in there own little spaceship world. They usually run with other spaceships etc.

I suppose the deck you have is filled with mostly the other type of machines which I call land runners. lol

They don't fly in space much?

It might be easier to make your deck if you figure out which one you might want.
