Gemini Dragon: deck recipe

update 02/07/2017

Overview

This deck is best suited for aggressive plays with Darkstorm Dragon. With Darkstorm Dragon you can clear all spell/trap cards on the field leaving your opponent defenseless unless they have Sphere Kuriboh in their hand. You will also have multiple ways to revive Darkstorm Dragon from your grave, so you do not have to worry much about cards like Order to Charge.

How to use this deck

Send Darkstorm dragon to the graveyard

Darkstorm Dragon will only be useful once he is in your graveyard where he can be revived. Set Featherizer, then when he is destroyed, you can mill Darkstorm Dragon out of your deck and draw a card. In case Darkstorm Dragon is in your hand, send him to the graveyard with Vanguard of the Dragon to have Vanguard of the Dragon gain 300 attack. Or you can send Darkstorm Dragon to the graveyard with Wonder Balloons, then later use Wonder Balloons as cost for Darkstorm Dragon's effect.

Reviving geminis

Blazewing Butterfly and Supervise both have effects to revive gemini monsters from the graveyard, with these you can easily summon Darkstorm Dragon from your graveyard. What you can do here is summon Blazewing Butterfly, then equip Supervise to him to have him gain his effect. Use Blazewing Butterfly's effect to send himself to the graveyard and summon
a Darkstorm Dragon that will be treated as an effect monster. Then finally with the Supervise in your graveyard special summon Blazewing Butterfly or another Darkstorm Dragon.

Destroy all spell/traps

Use the effect of Darkstorm Dragon to clear all spell/trap cards on the field by sending one of your face up spell/trap card to the graveyard.
An excellent combo for this is equipping Supervise to Darkstorm Dragon to immediately gain his card effect, then send Supervise to the graveyard with Darkstorm Dragon's effect to destroy all spell/trap cards on the field, this would also allow you to special summon a normal monster from the graveyard by the effect of Supervise. Use this opportunity to special summon another Darkstorm Dragon.

How to use (Kidmodo ver.)

General strategy

Darkstorm Dragon is the key card in this deck, special summon him as quickly as possible. Use the effect of Kidmodo Dragon to special summon him from your hand, and use the effect of Blazewing Butterfly or Supervise to revive him from your graveyard. The effect of Vanguard of the Dragon can also be used to revive Darkstorm Dragon from the grave, but only if Vanguard of the Dragon was destroyed by your opponent's card effect.

If you cannot get Darkstorm Dragon early in the duel, stall your opponent with Vanguard of the Dragon and Blazewing Butterfly. Use Enemy Controller and Mirror Wall to handle enemies too strong for your monsters. If this happens too often consider adding Woodland Archer to your deck.

Why duel standby

As you can see this deck has no draw power or search power, so we rely on duel standby to give us the hand we need. This skill also gives us cards we can send to the grave with the effects of Vanguard of the Dragon and Wonder Balloons. Here's where this deck shines, because what it lacks in draw power, it makes up for by reusing cards in the graveyard. Most cards in this deck have effects that activates when sent to the grave or return cards from the grave.

Discard Kidmodo Dragon

If Darkstorm Dragon is in your hand, use Kidmodo Dragon as the cost for activating card effects. Discarding Kidmodo Dragon would trigger it's effect and allow you to special summon Darkstorm Dragon. But keep in mind that you cannot conduct your battle phase, nor can you special summon monsters except dragon-type monsters the turn you activate this effect.

  • Vanguard of the Dragon increase it's attack by discarding a dragon-type monster from your hand.
  • Wonder Balloons lets you discard multiple cards from your hand, to decrease the attack of your opponent by that amount x400.

I think you can add "Heart of the Underdog" to the deck which has good synergy with Darkstorm Dragon and potentially would give you some draw power.

Heart of Underdog isn't wirking with Gemini Monsters due to they are only treated as normal Monsters when they are on field or in graveyard

Yeah but people need to realize that superalloy beast raptinus is only a support card, not the main focus of gemini, that way gemini can have a variety of build. You can even use magical merchant to fill grave and pick supervise then combined with butterfly to revive.

I actually wish they'd make a New Age version of Superalloy to make it more versatile...well, straight up useful. Like between it and First/Dragon, I'd pick 1st just because its better & a survivor even harder to summon than Superalloy.
