Hello people at pojo.  If you read my last rant, then you will know that I like the God cards.  Well, this has nothing to do with them.  Anyways, here is my tip.  Many people play the same deck, and that is all you will see in tournaments.  Some people play metagame, but not that many.  Hopefully with Pharoahs Servant there won't be as many Beatdown decks.  Well here is the beatdown deck and its weakness.
 
 Beatdown
Use strong monsters and strong power-ups to attack opponents life points.
Weakness: Magic destroying cards.  Magic cards are the main strength of this deck.  The main monster is Summoned Skull.  If all three are destroyed you have a good chance of winning.  Using Soul Release will make sure they can't be Reborned.  In Pharaohs Servant comes two great cards that can destroy beatdown decks.  They are Imperial Decree and Chain Destruction.  Imperial Decree is a permanent trap card that says, magic card activations are negated while this card is on the field.  during your standby phase pay 700 life points or destroy this card,.  An easy restriction.  Put in one or as many as possible.  Use this combo to destroy all Summoned Skulls with chain destruction.  Equip ring of magnetism to summoned skull and use chain destruction.  You need to destroy a monster with 2000 or less attack points with chain destruction.  That destroys all of those monsters in his deck.  Put in a couple or side board 'em.  These two cards are important staple cards for any deck.  Also, use Relinquished or Thousand Eyes Relinquished in your deck to defeat beatdown decks.
 
Well this has been my simple tip.  thanks for reading this.
