Subject: Top 10

Hey I’m Kaiser / K. (Nicknames). I have an unusual top 10… I don’t think Dark Magician, Red Eyes B. Dragon, or B.E.W.D. are decent… in fact I hate them, but I will explain my hate list later.

TOP 10 Monsters / Magic / Trap Cards

 

1. Summoned Skull – Heh, 1 sacrifice… and Dark Magician? 2?

2. Wall of Illusion – Well if you know what it does, I think it is one of the best non-sacrifice monsters, having a defense of 1850… which no non-sacrifice monster’s attacks can match. Great for a first move.

3.Stop Defense – Hate those people who always play in defense? This card is perfect for screwing over a Mystical Elf or Spirit of the Harp etc, Especially Man-Eater Bug.

4. Monster Reborn – Always good when you have a good combo and you don’t want your monster(s) dying before you play the combo.

5. Swords of Revealing Light – This is another good card for playing a combo, because not only can your opponent NOT attack, but you get pretty much 3 free turns…

6. La Jinn the Mystical Genie of the Lamp – Long Name, Good Card. Currently best non-sacrifice monster, however… can be countered with Wall of Illusion.

7. Change of Heart – If it weren’t restricted, you could just make half your deck these.

8. Card Destruction – Hahaha… For all those Exodia addicts… that go through all of that work to not only BUY THEM, but then DRAW THEM, this card really puts a damper on the Exodia plan. If the opponent doesn’t have monster reborn in their hand… and a piece(s) of Exodia then the whole game is turned around.

9. Ultimate Offering – With this card in your hand first draw, you can be unstoppable! Just keep taking from the 8000 LP and there you have it… a whole bunch of monsters… or (In my case) Tribute summoned monsters J.

10. Just Deserts – The best I say BEST counter for Ultimate Offering or any time when the opponent has multiple monsters on the field, for this does 500 for each.

 

HATE LIST

 

1. Gyakutenno Megami, Succubus Knight, Rude Kaiser, Red Eyes B. Dragon, Dark Magician – These cards need sacrifice to summon… but they are WAY too much costly for what they do. Succubus Knight needs 1 sacrifice for a 1650 ATK… disgusting.

2. Exodia – Pretty much stoppable, and very forbidden in my rating. Yea, it’s a good strategy, but 1- it costs like 200 dollars for the set… and 2- have a great time drawing them… it’s a 5:40 chance… oh… and 3- Card Destruction will totally demolish the idea.

3. BEWD – Well… 2 sacrifices… its ok for its ATK and DEF, but there are so many counters… Fissure, Trap Hole, Acid Trap Hole, Dark Hole, Raigeki, Dragon Capture Jar…. I’d say it’s a good card if there weren’t as many monster elimination magic and trap cards.
