Junk Warrior Abuse Deck + Card Review

 

Hey guys, guess what? Today I'm doing a Synchro deck, first time ever! Thanks to a guy online named DueLion7 for the idea, sorry if I copied the list a little. But first off, a card review with me and my co-worker John:

 

Stardust Dragon/Wind/LV 8

ATK: 2500 DEF: 2000

Dragon/Synchro/Effect

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters
You can Tribute this card to negate the activation of a Spell Card, Trap Card or Effect Monster's effect that destroys a card(s) on the field and destroy that card. If you negate an effect this way, you can Special Summon this card from your Graveyard during your End Phase.

Trad: /5

Adv: /5

 

Crzydrvr: Crap this is good. There's just no other way to say it. The stats hurt, but the effect is just brutal. There shouldn't be any synchro decks without at least 2 copies of this guy.

Trad: 2/5 Chaos owns the format.

ADV: 4.5/5 The stats aren't the best, but still a great overall card.

 

John:hmm, im afraid i have been out of the loop for a few weeks and am writing this on holiday, and have not managed to get my hands on any 5D cards. So i am going to base this on effect and not summonability, as i have only a guess to how you do that, and am far too busy to attempt to find out. i am only reviewing this through an email. bear with me though = )

the effect of this card is brilliant. allowing for a nice negation and removal, at only a slice of a loss of field presence. i am not sure though if you can tribute it in a chain against its own summon, so maybe solemn judgement has a chance, but when you get this baby onto the field, chances are its not going to be there for long with all the removal in todays meta.

the fact that it special summons from the graveyard makes it a one hit wonder against macro decks, as they would remove it from the game ASAP. maybe return from the dd it, or use the effect and return it to the grave from the RFG pile, and special summon it back out provided you do that in the same turn as you tributed it (can you do that? im not sure email me if you know the ruling on this please).

all in all a sound card, coming to a meta near you!

trad: 4/5 i see it having a chance  here, although its wind:/ but if it is easy to summon then its got a chance. could negate COD to stop yata lock?
advanced: 5/5 its a great card, hopefully i can get my hands on it soon =)

if anyone knows the ruling i mentioned earlier, kindly email me at unit271@hotmail.co.uk please! same for any comments or flaming. i like a discussion =)

 

Now onto the deck:

 

Junk Warrior Abuse x40

 

Monsters x20

x3 Junk Synchron

x3 Hero Kid

x3 The Calculator

x3 Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands

x2 Relinquished

x2 The Immortal Bushi

x2 Speed Warrior

x1 Copycat

x1 Sangan

 

Spells x11

x2 Black Illusion Ritual

x2 Reinforcement of the Army

x2 Lightning Vortex

x1 Cold Wave

x1 Monster Reborn

x1 Heavy Storm

x1 Smashing Ground

x1 Enemy Controller

 

Traps x9

x2 Dust Tornado

x2 Limit Reverse

x1 Scrap-Iron Scarecrow

x1 Mirror Force

x1 Torrential Tribute

x1 Bottomless Trap Hole

x1 Jar of Greed

 

Extra

x3 Junk Warrior

 

The idea is to use Calculator, Relinquished, Hero Kid, and the lone Copycat to increase Junk Warrior's ATK. The Immortal Bushi is an available search engine, and Relinquished provides easy ATK with DAD, Gyzarus, and Judgement Dragon hanging around. Manju searches Relinquished and its spell, while Speed Warrior has a nice effect for Junk Warrior. Limit Reverse retrieves all those LV 2s and lower, Scrap-Iron Scarecrow is a reusable Negate Attack, and Jar for draw power. It's a nice deck to try and I think it could have tournament potential. Again looking for people to test this one out at your locals.

 

That's all for now! You can reach me at crzydrvr1995@gmail.com and my pal John at unit271@hotmail.co.uk. Don't forget, we are looking for reviewers, so if you are interested then please email me. Until next time!
