YuGiOh
As we travel through life we come across
instances or events that seem locked in
eternity. Our minds crush with intensity and
fear due to the inability to understand what
exactly is happening. We worry and compress,
eventually realizing that when those hard times
come we just have to bear with them, see what
happens, and keep on going.
Well I am the type of person who enjoys nothing
more than watching an opponent worm around in
their chair thinking intensely about how to get
themselves out of something they don't
understand. One of my readers sent me the
following e-mail :
My name is
Jake and I am a member of the
Pojo.com forum and I was looking at peoples
decks and saw one that looked interesting. It
revolved around using Dark
Dust Spirit, Sacred Phoenix of
Nephthys and Treeborn Frog to create an infinite destruction combo. Find a way to summon Phoenix, then summon Treeborn Frog. Keep tributing Frog for DDS and destroy every monster, including Phoenix. Your next Standby Phase, Phoenix comes back and destroys all S/Ts and the combo starts over. The only problem I have is when my Phoenix gets hit by Bottomless, which eliminates the S/T destruction and makes me sad. Usually once I get my combo rolling, my opponent scoops out of frustration that they have no answers to my infinite combo. Anyway I modified it a few times and I was wondering what you think. My deck is on a budget, so if you can, try not to suggest too many expensive cards, although all suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanx!

The idea of generating a loop was intriguing to me but the deck has inconsistency issues upon first glance. For example, bottomless trap hole and Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer. Both of these cards are going to hurt your combo. But at last the deck is also inconsistent because its loop is the product of a 2 tribute monster and a 1 tribute spirit monster. Thus the deck should focus on searching for the combo, yet maintain field presence in order to accomplish this. Thus the following occurred.....
the deck
needs to run 3x My Body as
Shield, because this card
will allow
for you to protect the phoenix from
bottomless trap hole
and will also maintain field presence for your
battle searchers by stopping
nobleman of crossout.
Swords of
Revealing Light, Dust Tornado, and Seven Tools
of the Bandit are not needed. Simply because
Phoenix will be an every turn
Heavy Storm and
My Body as a Shield
should stop any and all threats.
I do like the
use of Wobaku
simply because this card single handedly removes
the threat of Kycoo because he will be unable to
deal damage and thus allow the cycle to
continue. PLUS IT IS CHAIN-ABLE TO ALMOST ALL
CONDITIONS and stops
Spirit Reaper/Don
Zaloog from hurting your combo...
Watch out for
obscure tricks like book of life (etc.) to
remove frog or phoenix; but in the long run I
don't think these will be pressing issues to
concern yourself with b/c no-body appears to be
playing them.
This deck is
running multiple battle searchers, and I
originally pretested it with 3x
Nimble Momonga and 3x
Giant Germ. But in the end I decided to
scrap them for more productive monsters that
would work if you drew multiples.
G-Spy allows
for some killer field presence while searching
others out and Mystic Tomato allows me to search
reaper, tomato, apprentice, old vindictive,
spy, and Sangan
which in turn gets frog.
Yet this deck
also packs 2x Creature
Swaps taking advantage of Battle
Searchers and allowing tsuky locks to be
generated with swap and
magician of faith. This is a take on the
deck which I believe to be competitive and
strong. Yet people more intent on looking just
for the combo without any back-up plans I'd
personally recommend running nothing but battle
searchers. The flaw with that (and the reason I
choose not to in this build) is that the deck
will not always get its combo off. Thus should
try its best to win in a stable form.
I believe
this lock is effective and devastating, thus it
should be looked at.
