Subject: Monk deserve some more thought/there is no
spoon
If you have been keeping up with the CofD then for
the week of Oct. 9-13 you have seen the Monk card
reviews. I am slightly upset about how the reviews
read "this is trash". Konami does not make bad cards
95% of the time, yes some cards are hard to use but
the best thing i can think of is "There is no
spoon", "it is not the spoon that bends, but
yourself"
You see it is not the card that becomes broken, but
you make the card broken. Cards just standing there
are usually not broken (except cards like the envoy
twins, yata, you know the rest :) ). The life
equalizer deck did not just fall out of easy to see
cards, no they had to think it through. And I have
seen some gread idas on the tips page (Look for a
legendary juditsu and shien spy article, you may
amaze yourself)
Now lets take another look at the cards of the day
they are Legendary Black Belt Kaminote Blow Lone
Wolf Monk Fighter, and master monk. Yes seperate
they are bad, very bad, but worth some thought.
using lone wolf gives you a chance at a spirit
reaper lock with 9 posible monsters. Yes if lone
wolf gets taken out your monster is in trouble, and
yes if they play any kind of good monster removal
you are not going to survive, but it can work. So
what do you do with a monster lock? maybe use the
monster, By using monk figher/master monk with
kaminote blow and the legendary black belt you can
destroy any monster and inflict damage to the
opponent equal to the defence of the destroyed
monster.
So what would the deck look like?
I think it would contain
Monsters=20
2xMaster Monk
2xMajestic Mech Ohka
3xmonk fighters
3xChu-ske mouse fighter
Magician of faith
2xapprentice Magician
2xHerald of Green Light
2xHerald of purple light
Breaker the magical warrior
2xOld Vendictive mage
Spells=15
3xLegendary black belt
3xKaminote blow
3xDark door
3xMessenger of peace
Graceful charity
heavy storm
mst
Traps=5
3xLone wolf
Magic Jamer
7 tools of the Bandit
Not the best deck, but I am making it on the fly. Do
i think that this can win, yes. Can it win the local
torney, maybe. Will it win the top 8 at a Jump, when
pigs fly! The main goal to the deck is to set up the
monk fighter in to the "lock" with his black belt
attached and use kamoto blow to just drain the life
out of your opponents. The spell card help to this
end by controling the opponent in to the hard lock
the mech can come on to the field with out their
tributes, die, and they you still hold the lock.
This sort of thing hold true for almost every card
in print, just becasue it seems out there and very
much useless doesen't make it so, just try and let
you brain bend in a different direction and maybe
you will find the new broken combo.
Like I just wrote this is on the fly, by my
standards this is a meh deck, but it is a start. If
you think of something more coherent or just want to
tell me that this will never fly e-mail me at
Drcdnilink02@aol.com. This is Magnus, out.
