Old Fashioned Machine Goodness- Squirrelmanajh

 

Hey, everyone how's it going.  I am presenting you all with a deck I've created.  I've always wondered why people abandoned the Machine deck type after the new ban list.  Most people say it's because one just can't protect their monsters very well,but it seems to me that Machines can still be powerful.  I have set out to make a Shonen Jump worthy Machine deck.  This is what I have come up with after a little help.
 
Machine Revolution
Deck Size:40
Monsters:20
3 Raiza the Storm Monarch
2 Jinzo
3 Cyber Dragon
3 Cyber Phoenix
2 Cyber Valley
1 Spirit Reaper
1 Sangan
1 Marshmallon
2 Drillroid
1 Snipe Hunter
1 Neo-Spacian Grand Mole

Spells:15
1 Mystical Space Typhoon
1 Heavy Storm
1 Premature Burial
1 Limiter Removal
1 Scapegoat
2 Enemy Controller
1 Brain Control
1 Lightning Vortex
2 Shrink
1 Nobleman of Crossout
1 Overload Fusion
1 Future Fusion
1 Book of Moon

Traps:5
1 Mirror Force
1 Torrential Tribute
1 Call of the Haunted
2 Bottomless Trap Hole/Phoenix Wing Wind Blast(duelists choice)

Fusion:9
3 Chimeratech OverDragon
3 Cyber Twin Dragon
3 Cyber End Dragon
 
Side Deck:15
2 Royal Decree
2 Kinetic Soldier
2 D.D. Crow
3 Threatening Roar
2 Pulling the Rug
1 Destiny Hero Plasma
2 D.D. Survivor
1 D.D. Designator
 
This deck takes what was great about old machines and mixes that with new things.  The control that this deck brings is amazing.  It can easily counter almost every deck that is used, and as an added bonus, it's not really hurt by Macro decks at all.  This deck provides the defense needed for Monarch decks with the Shrinks and Enemies.  I have not yet lost with this deck and I have dueled everything: Macro, Monarch, Twilight Circle, and Perfect Circle.  This deck has great drawing power and really messes with the traps that most people use, I'm talking to you Phoenix Wing Wind Blast.   It even has the secondary win condition of Overload and Chimeratech.  The side deck provides counters to most of the popular decktypes, even Gadgets and Baburn.
 
Thanks for taking the time to read this, I really appreciate it everyone.  If you have any questions or comments email me at ram1626@peoplepc.com.  If anyone has any needed deck fixes, email me also, I can fix almost anything, just check Pojo forums to see.  Contact can also be made by Private Messages on Pojo forums, I will reply as soon as possible.
