Guardian Deck: Strategic and powerful? Or Bad and Completely
Useless? - Karlie

Hi, I'm Karl (My friends call me Karlie) anyhooo.....

I currently have a sort of guardian deck...but is a guardian deck that 
good? when you think of it, you need the right equip cards to be on the 
field in order to special summon, normal summon or even flip summon the 
right monster. Sounds worthless right? BUT when you also look at the 
monsters effect, it really pays off to have that Guardian monster on the field.

For example:

You need Rod of Silence-Kay'est to be on the field to summon Guardian 
Kay'est. Rod of Silence-Kay'est increases a monsters defence by 500 points, 
and it also negates spell cards that is targeted to the monster that is 
equipped with Rod of Silence. It's completely pointless...until you summon 
Guardian Kay'est in defense mode. Guardian Kay'est is unaffected by Spell 
cards and cannot be attacked by any monsters. "So what?" you may be 
thinking...yes its weakness is that it can be targeted by flip effects eg. 
man eater bug, and trap cards eg. Skill Drain. BUT most decks these days 
run a Jinzo...So...when their Jinzo is on the field and you have a Guardian 
Kay'est on your side...well its almost pretty much invincible with the 
exception of flip effects.

of course....There are cons to each Guardian card...the equip cards can be 
destroyed....all that can be taken care of the card named: "Fairy of the 
Spring"....if you don't know what it does...it returns 1 equip spell from 
your graveyard back to your hand....but it cannot be activated during that 
turn. Guardian Elma is weak...and its effect is completely and utterly 
useless....but its equip card Butterfly Dagger-Elma is good (restricted). 
Guardian Tryce needs a sacrifice and its attack is 1900atk.Then there's my 
favourite out of all Guardian cards: Guardian Baou...800atk/400def but it 
can negate monsters effect eg. Man eater bug, hane hane, and any other 
flips that are annoying, and its attack rises by 1000 each time it destroys 
a monster and sends it to the graveyard. all you have to do is equip it 
with an axe of despair and malevolent nuzzler, back it up with a couple of 
quick play spell or traps, and then, you'll have a moster with an effect so 
good, you can almost never be beaten.

So...What d'you think of Guardian Decks Now?
