ImNikitaAndURnot@aol.com Nikit0man's Yu-Gi-Oh Top 10 List- Top 10 Advanced Cards used by any duelist Ok I've read some top 10 list and some are pretty good some are just off the wall ridiculous. I'm here to set the record straight and will list the top 10 cards in the advanced format. These cards are NEAR essentials and I don't care how "original" you want your deck to be it will and should include a lot of the following cards. Now then I give you Nikitoman's top 10 cards for the advanced format. 10. Call of the Haunted With Monster Reborn gone forever recursion happens a little less often. This and premature burial are the two best recursion cards in the game. While Premature burial has a cost it is much faster then call. Just because I placed call in 10th means nothing against it's playability. This is a great card and combos amazingly with Jinzo. I mean you gotta love when they try to MST this thing and you chain it to bring out Jinzo or in the same regard the go for the game winning ring your BLS move and you chain this to Jinzo. 09. Premature Burial I basically just covered all the pluses this card has over Call. It's much faster and has less chances of being countered. Not to mention you can reuse this with Giant Trunade. Most of the time the 800 is worth the chance to reuse your BLS. 08. Tribe Infecting Virus This is mass removal at it's finest. Nothing makes me happier then seeing a field full of warriors and all I have is this and a serpent in my hand. Decks based around Hours and Warriors fear this card. While a lot of people argue that he promotes bad hand management (a valid point in some regards) it takes a truly skilled duelist to wield this card and use his true potential. If you need a light/dark or a high tribute in the graveyard he usually does the trick. 07. Heavy Storm Without this card and MST traps would own the advanced format. Thankfully the second best mass s/t remover did not hit the forbidden list (nor will it ever if konami has any sense). It has its draw backs as you may need to destroy your torrential tribute in order to take out that level limit but in the end it is well worth it. 06. Black Luster Soldier- Envoy of the Beginning Ok this guys simple. 3000 atk 2500 def attacks twice if it kills a monster first or you have the option of removing a monster on the field from play. All you have to do is remove one light and one dark. Annoying? yeah Game breaking? you better believe it. 05. Ring of Destruction ....I've lost to this card more times then I'd like to remember. It just recently cost me top 8 at the Butler regional but I'm not going to hold that against it. Great way to end the game, great removal and chainable...everything you want in a trap card. 04. Mystical Space Typhoon Card has saved lives. Before it was restricted nearly every deck had 3 of these bad boys. I got two full pages of ultra rare MST's and its depressing. This passes Storm because simply..its quick play. Take out there waboku, ring, call, scapegoat, controller anything really before they have a chance to chain. It's saved a lot of people and is still the best s/t remover in the game. 03. Magical Scientist My favorite little monster in the whole world. The definition of tech. Scientist does it all period. Need big time monster removal you got Thousand Eyes Restrict. Effect monster bothering you, you got Dark Balter the Terrible. A lotta traps on you're opponents side of the field, bring out Ryu-Senshi. Opponent is foolish enough to have a face up spirit reaper on the field, Hit him for 7600 and remove 9 monsters from their graveyard with Dark Blade the Dragon Knight and a Flare Knight. All these can be yours for only 1000 life points per summon..oh and you can't attack directly but...wait a second...metamorphosis???? I'll pay 1000 for a Giltia the D. Knight and metamorph it into Balter??? What then I'll remove Giltia and a dark monster from my graveyard for BLS???? Creature Swap Spirit Reaper on the Nightmare and hit you for a lot??? OMG and it even combos with Mokey Mokey's!!!! Um oh yeah and there's that whole FTK combo with catapult turtle. 02. Sinister Serpent This card can be described in one word versatile. It is an all around good card which I believe should have been higher on the list. Hand management, discard fodder, metamorphosis, creature swap, enemy controller heck you need an extra card when discarding for mirage of nightmare he's your man..or lizard. He's wasn't called killer snake in japan for nothing he should be in almost every deck. 01. Pot of Greed Why shouldn't you have this in your deck? Ask yourself that...really think about it for a second. You draw two cards....for nothing....WHY DOESN'T THIS MAKE EVERY TOP 10's LIST???????? The best card in the game is the easiest to find too. If anyone can think of a good reason not to include it I'd love to hear it. These cards are simply amazing and should be used in nearly all decks. Now for the honorable mentions. Believe me there is a lot. -Change of Heart (This and snatch steal were really hard choices believe me I wanted them on the top 10 but there are reasons why I couldn't do it) -Snatch Steal -Torrential Tribute -Breaker the Magical Warrior -Jinzo -Fiber Jar -Cyber Jar -Forceful Sentry -Painful Choice
