Not a decktype, but a combo. Burn decks will
probably know this move anyway, and if they don't,
they probably should.
Ring of Destruction + Barrel Behind the Door + +Att
cards (e.g. Yami) + Suicide Monster.
Now, the basics of this combo are simple. Very, very
simple. In fact, I'll take you through it:
1. Take monster. Any monster, any level.
2. Make said monster's Att as large as possible. You
can do this anyway you want. Command Knight,
A.forces, ALO, Gaia Power...I don't care.
3. Blast monster into oblivion (no prizes for
guessing how you do that...).
4. Cackle evilly (Note: this should be practiced for
maximum effect).
It is possible to use this combo by changing one,
yes, one slot in your deck. The end result you ask?
Mass amounts of damage, and what's more, it is
almost impossible for your opponant to block ALL of
the damage. I'll now look at each of the parts
required for this to work:
RING OF DESTRUCTION
Come on. You must have realized that any combo
involving mass damage would involve this card. This
will (or probably should), be in your deck anyway,
so it's not a problem to slot it in. I don't need to
say anything more about it, do I?
BARREL BEHIND THE DOOR
This card is the crux of the plan. This card, when
combo'd with Ring, will shield your own Life Points
from the damage of Ring. What's more, it will
transfer that damage to your opponant's LP! Sweet,
isn't it? Using Ring + Barrel, you can blast any
monster on the field into itty-bitty pieces, and
inflict double that monster's attack score to your
opponents LP. Your opponant cannot block all the
damage, because what is actually happening is that
the monsters attack is inflicted twice to your
opponent, so any efforts made (outside Hallowed Life
Barrier) would only block half the damage.
(Note: You CANNOT use this card to switch costs onto
your opponent (e.g.
Cyber-Stein). Barrel can only reflect actual
damage.)
Use it on any monster with 2000 Att or more, and
half of your opponent's LP is gone in one hit.
That'll put paid to any Cyber-Stein shenanigens, I
tell you now. Or you could be really, really, really
evil and LET them play Stein. Let them drain 5000 of
their own LP, then Ring + Barrel that prized Cyber
End Dragon. Tears should follow, especially if
you've mastered Step 4.
SUGGESTED SUICIDERS
This is a quick list of a few cards that are, quite
frankly, screaming to be blasted. Refering to cards
not on the list, any level 4 or less cards with big
Att scores and big drawbacks are perfect for this.
Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys (It'll just be back once
you've blasted it...) Vampire Lord (See above)
Goblin Attack Force Goblin Elite Attack Force Giant
Orc Armor Exe Majestic Mech- Ohka (He'd be gone
anyway- Launch him!) Cyber Dragon Fusion monsters
you've used Stein for (Cyber End Dragon, Cyber Twin,
etc,
etc...)
ANY MONSTERS OF YOUR OPPONENTS WHEN NECCESSARY (I
cannot state this enough.
If you are staring down the barrel of Zaborg or
Cyber Dragon and have the combo down, USE IT!)
***
The most difficult part of the combo is boosting the
monsters strength. For a few decks, this isn't a
problem. For the rest, either be content with around
4000 damage, or side deck some in. To "tech" the
combo in, simply allocate one deck slot to Barrel
Behind the Door.
Enjoy using this. Any comments, queries, violent
death threats (thats a joke), etc, send to swaters@blueyonder.co.uk
