Subject: Convulsion of Nature
Pojo, please post this! I spent a lot of time writing this tip, and I think 
it could really benefit n00bs and Experienced Players alike!

I have heard it said many times, that there is not one decent combo to be 
pulled off with the card, "Convulsion of Nature." Here, today, In my tip, I 
plan to prove you absolutely wrong.

For those of you who don't know, Convulsion of Nature is a continious Magic 
Card that forces both you and your Opponent to turn your decks upside down, 
so that they both become completely visible. At first glance, the card is 
absolutely terrible, because it allows your Opponent to get a glance of 
your Strategy. Even though you will also have an advantage, cards that 
benefit both Players equally are not always playable. Cards like this also 
tend to Stall the game, and speed is everything in the game of Duel 
Monsters. Even if these combos are not speedy, they can be extremely 
devestating.

The first C.O.N. combo I created involves the Trap Card, Drop Off. This 
card was used by the World Champ as his Finisher in the Championships in 
New York City. I hope that by now, you realize where I'm going with this. 
Remember, C.O.N allows you to see the cards your Opponent draws. So. You 
activate Convulsion, and when your Opponent happens to draw an excellent, 
game-ending card (Yata, Feather Duster, Lily, Exiled, Imp Order, Ring of 
Destruction, etc.), you are able to move the card directly from their Deck 
to the Graveyard. Be careful of Jinzo, you don't want that thing raised 
from the dead in your face. It's better just to let them draw it, and make 
them Trib. for it.
Personally, I have used and abused this Combo several times, but oddly 
enough, I have never had it done to me. However, someone did Time Seal me 
under my own C.O.N. I didn't understand it, they only slowed me down for 
one turn. I used Graceful Charity anyway. O_o

Well, moving on the the next Convulsion Combo...

With the release of PGD, we got many Rare and hyped up cards. Many, IMO, 
were extremely overrated. Although they are excellent, they don't deserve 
the huge amounts of credit they're recieving. One of the such cards is the 
infamous Don Zaruug.(I refuse to use the retarded English name) Most people 
probably wouldn't realize the Combo potential right off the bat, because 
it's complicated, and perhaps a bit risky.
When C.O.N is in play, and Don Zaruug is on the field, you can opt to 
activate his 2nd effect if your Opponent's next draw looks threatining. Not 
only will you discard that card from the top of their deck, but you will 
also be able to vanquish the one behind it. This should be used wisely, and 
at the right time. If done untimely, this combo can hurt you just as much 
as it can hurt your opponent.

Ahh... well, I hope that in the future, entire decks will be able to be 
built around Convulsion of Nature. Hopefully, we'll get some more support 
cards to play this baby with. Who knows, could be a popular archetype in 
the future... Well, Later Days. I'm Outta Here. o_O ...s0medumbrand0m
