Skill Drain Deck/ I Take Back What I Said About Advanced-JoeTrex3000


From: JoeTrex3000@aol.com
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2005 01:28:57 EDT

Hi this is Joe wanting to leave a deck list of a great trap card skill drain. I used this deck in a team tournament with my friend. After the list ill tell you how the deck works. Oh and also I would like to take back what I said about Advanced so if you want do read that just skip down.

Monsters 18
3 Goblin Attack Force
3 Giant Orc
2 Zombra The Dark
3 Fusiler-Duel Mode Beast
2 Beserk Gorilla
2 Flash Assailant
2 Nuvia The Wicked
1 Ultimate Obedient Fiend


Spells 14
1 Mystical Space Typhoon
1 Lightning Vortex
1 Premature Burial
2 Nobleman of Crossout
1Book of Moon
1Smashing Ground
1 Snatch Steal
1 Brain Control
1 Sebek's Blessing
1 United We Stand
1 Mage Power
1 Pot of Greed
1 Graceful Charity


Traps 8
3 Skill Drain
1 Dust Tornado
1 Torrential Tribute
1 Mirror Force
1 Waboku
1 Spell Shield Type 8

Side Deck
2 Vampire Lord
2 Ryu Kokki
2 Pyramid Turtles
1 Jinzo
3 Trap Hole
1 Trap Jammer
3 Compulsory Evacuation Device
1 Bottomless Trap Hole


Ok, Well the main strategy of this deck is to pull out Skill Drain so your opponent doesn't get too many of their monster effects. The only effects that still work are effects that activate in the graveyard. Most of you realize that people put monsters in their deck that have great effects like Tribe-Infecting Virus or Black Luster Soldier Envoy of the Beginning. Even flip effects are negated by Skill Drain.

Of course you know that you can use skill drain to keep Goblin Attack Force or Giant Orc from switching to defense. Also keep Zombra from losing attack points or let him actually attack directly. One of my favorites is Ultimate Obedient Fiend because then you have a monster with a 3500 attack. Also because of Fusiler's effect you can summon him without tributing and then his effect is negated so you more or less have a 4 star monster with a 2800 attack.
Probably the biggest thing about this awesome Skill Drain card is that if you play it before Jinzo is out his effect is negated(one time I got to bottomless a Jinzo and you have no idea how good that feels).

For you beginners who might want to use this deck make sure you only play 1 skill drain down at a time. Oh and this is an advanced format deck.

I Take It Back

Well in my first article here on pojo I said that advanced was only for people who were scared of the good cards. Well now that I actually went in the Advanced format I enjoyed it very much. Yeah at the tournament I got to at hobby town USA in Grand Blanc Michigan (Sup Guys if you don't know this is Joe
Jenkins) I went against some really tough opponents but it was really fun. I didn't use that skill drain deck though. Anyway I think when I said those things about advanced I was just mad because people were all up in my face about being traditional. Yeah I just like to say that I regret saying those things about advanced and enjoy playing. HERE I TAKE IT BACK. There I said it. I think I realized its more fun beating someone who is good instead of some kid who tries to set a monster in face down attack position*LAUGH*.


Anything you wanna say.(If you want send me hate mail I think its funny) e-mail me at _JoeTrex3000@aol.com_ (mailto:JoeTrex3000@aol.com)

Thanks for reading
