Todayʼs deck up for review is an amazing
concept that I thought up some time ago. I am sure
you all have heard or seen the new Demise deck
right? Well for those who donʼt know, the deck got a
boost with the new field spell Geartown. Popping it
with Demise or even Magical Hats gave you the game
most times. I saw flaws with the deck, so I decided
to make it better with a little Lang flavor. My
version is your basic Demise deck, except with a
good amount of draw power and your win condition is
Dark Calling. Letʼs take a look at the build shall
we?
3|Soi|Demise, King of Armageddon
3|Dcr|Dark Master - Zorc
3|Sdd|Valkyrion The Magna Warrior
3|Ioc|Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands
2|Ysds|Archfiend Soldier
2|Dor|Beta The Magnet Warrior
1|Tp2|Morphing Jar
1|Mrl|Sonic Bird
1|Mrl|Senju of the Thousand Hands
3|Ptdn|Allure of Darkness
1|Ston|Advanced Ritual Art
3|Dcr|Contract With The Abyss
3|Sdrl|Trade-In
2|Dp07|Hand Destruction
1|Mrd|Heavy Storm
1|Mrl|Giant Trunade
3|Dp06|Dark Calling
1|Mrl|Megamorph
3|Pgd|Reckless Greed
3|Glas|Evil Hero Dark Gaia
So as I was saying, you will draw quite a
bit with this build. You will sift through your deck
and get your combo pieces rather quickly without
many problems. My ritual choices are quite obvious.
If you have played at all lately, you know that
decks like Teleport Dark Armed and Lightsworn can
create big Momentum on the board. My two big bangers
take card of that. Demise will nuke the entire
field. Most people donʼt like Dark Master Zorc, but
he is brilliant. A 5 out of 6 chance that you will
nuke a monster of your opponents is great and will
be game changing.
So I will be sifting through the deck with
Trade In, Hand Destruction, Morphing Jar, Advanced
Ritual Art and Reckless Greed. This will set me up
for my Otk. Dark Calling will give me an Evil Hero
Dark Gaia at minimum attack of 3600. That alone is
already better than what Geartown can produce. Dark
Gaia can get as big as 6200. How could you not fall
in love with that? If you can get your drawing
going, and get double Reckless Greed, you will win
this game, unless you play error.
Most people donʼt even think of the
secondary effect of Evil Hero Dark Gaia. It is one
of the sickest thing that I have seen. Since this
deck creates the big beats that it does, your
opponent will be on the defensive a lot of the
times. Gaia just punishes your sets. When it
declares an attack, it switches all defense position
guys to attack mode. What is even better? All flip
effects do not activate at this time? What else
could you really ask for?
With this build, even if you canʼt One
Turn Kill, you can still beat your opponent. People
arenʼt using a lot of answers to kill these big
beaters. And if they do, they wonʼt have enough in
their hand to finish you off in most cases. So I see
no real downsides to this deck besides a few. One
would be there being a deck like Teleport Dark Armed
that will draw to their combos super fast, and you
may not be able to recover at times. Another factor
I found while testing would be that Crush Card Virus
eats this deck alive sometimes. You can mount
comebacks with your searchers for your Ritual
Monster/Spell cards, so you have to hope to
draw/have those while being Ccvʼd to stand a chance.
Other than that, it has worked well for me. One
thing I have had troubles with, is finding a proper
Sideboard for this. There isnʼt too much that can
stop this to be honest. You can use things like
Royal Decree and Prohibition to stop things like
Royal Oppressions and stuff like Phoenix Wing Wind
Blast/Solemn Judgment. Other than that I canʼt
really think of anything. Side Giant Trunade and
Mystical Space Typhoon for match ups against Macro,
Gladiator Beastʼs, and combo oriented decks. Rest of
the space you can try out some fun ideas!
I suggest that you go and build this.
This deck is sooo cheap to make and a load of fun!
Obviously not everyone in the world can afford all
of theses decks costing 500+ dollars, so I think I
solved that problem with this deck! I hope that you
all enjoyed my article, and if you have any
suggestions or comments contact me on the boards @
