Darkness Is Coming... - Lemonsatan

 

Ok, Well, Currently, I'm in Hong Kong whilst writing this, and as all of you could expect, Yes...Dark is popular but... Not everyone uses it, It isn't as great as most people expect.
 
The only dark monster that alot of people abuse however is Dark Armed Dragon. See 2800 (Strongest and Easiest summoning) out of the darks including Dark Phoenix, Horus, Creator and Rainbow Dragon with its VERY Evil effect - Remove 1 Dark Monster in your graveyard to destroy one card on the field: Magic/Trap or Monster... Basically giving you 3 free shots... But the even better thing about it is if you summon 3 at once... Ridding things just got too easy. I think everyone can see that this card will be banned or limited so yeah... It will be in HIGH demand when it comes out... So get yours when it comes out!!! It's a rare in Japanese but I can't say the same for english, judging by the way they change rarities - Zombie Master - Rare to Super.
 
There are some side effects to it - There must be exactly 3 Dark in the graveyard. No more, No Less, But of course, it is possible to have other types. Just exactly 3 dark =]
And if you're wondering, Nope, you cannot Premature Burial it...
 
The next thing I want to talk about is the Monarch deck. As everyone is probably aware, there is a Dark Monarch. Yes, It too has a Evil Effect - When this card is sucessfully tribute summoned, you may remove from play a card on the field. If a dark monster was removed by the effect of this card, you may inflict 1000 damage to your opponents life points. Hehe, I remember the day it came out in the card shop, it was sold out on the first day and from $90Hk it rose to $120 the next...Wow, do other decks sold as well as them...I got mine ^_^
 
The Monarch deck is based around D.D... such cruel tactics. D.D is nothing but un-originality for those lower class people who cannot beat others and there is no skill required. Yes, I am against those people.
 
The card that is wanted most here is probably the Dark Monarch (By the way, All monarchs except Dark are in common) is D D R. Basically, It is a Premature Burial for Remove from Play cards. And the way it is abused is when Dark Magician of Chaos is Removed From Play, people activate D D R, Sp.Summon DMOC and activate his effect, grabbing another D.D.R. Non-Stop DMOC...How Cruel. The catch about it is, the enemy has to discard every time D D R is activated.
 
Monarchs aren't strong. People only think they're strong because of their effect and 2400 ATK, but assure me, A warrior toolbox can beat a monarch deck...Pure Warriors with a monster that's the upgraded Treeborn Frog.
 
Imortal Bushi - Thanks to http://manjyomethunder.twoday.net/stories/4431520/ - Dark/Warrior/3*/1200/600 - This card cannot be tributed unless it's for a Warrior monster. When this card is in your graveyard during your standby and you do not control any monsters, you can special summon this card onto your side of the field. This effect cannot be activated if there is a non warrior type monster in your graveyard.
 
Well, Yes, By all means abuse it. Tribute it for the Light Monarch if you wish. No, Not Zaborg, Another light monarch. But, This is all the time I have... To talk about Dark Monsters, Or I'll bore you all to death.
 
Thank you for reading this and if you have any queries then email me at: Lemonsatan@gmail.com 
Yes, I have built a Dark Armed Dragon Deck+D Hero, No, I don't use D D R myself at all, Yes, I have built a No Tribute Warrior Toolbox, No the Light Monarch hasn't came out yet, No, I don't use Monarchs, and I am currently building a Counter D D Monarch Deck!
