There was a similar thread to this a while back. Check there to see some of the comments before you read, since the more well-versed players are much smarter than me :)

I'll post a review later today.

edit Well, it seems like most of what was said has already been done here, so less work for everyone @@

Overall, though, your card count is a bit high. I would like to see this down to 40 (or as close as possible), as usual. I would say that the most obvious candidates for removal are Waboku, Wall of Revealing Light, and Reckless Greed. They aren't really needed here. Waboku is so-so and one-shot for an okay, but not life-saving effect. Wall of Revealing Light doesn't really have a purpose here at all, since it's too costly to be effective and is easily dispatched of. Reckless Greed pales in comparison to Fortune's Future and Water's effect. Other cards you can plan on removing are Card Trader, since you don't really need it. Interdimensional Matter Transporter isn't nearly as useful as Compulsory.

You might also want to somehow replace some cards with Rai-Mei, Plaguespreader Zombie, or Mystical Space Typhoon.

Now, while I'm still at it, I want to mention that while Barbaros works very nicely with Future Visions, I'm still unsure about his worth to this deck. I think he fits much better into decks that actually use Future Visions and splash Fortune Ladies, rather than focus around them.

Cirrus July 25th, 2010 8:55 PM

Card Trader is virtually useless card-advantage-wise. Don't. D=

Waboku, Reckless Greed, and Wall don't add very much. I would suggest swapping out a copy of Interdimensional for a copy of Dust Tornado, but it combos quite well with Fortune's Future, so hmmmmmm. Catoblepas is meh, Solitaire is meh, and everything else looks quite good.

I would suggest a combination of 2 Barbaros, 1 Plaguespreader, and 1 MST somewhere into there.

Basically what he said. Waboku, Reckless and Wall don't do very much to help the build. :/

Circuit July 26th, 2010 11:56 AM

Those cards out, how's it looking now? I've swapped a few things around as well.

Cirrus July 26th, 2010 3:16 PM

Catoblepas and Solitaire don't add very much. Take them out and cut to 41.

Try to play 3 Fortune's Future if possible.

Agreed. That way, you'll actually have reason to be playing Interdimensional over Compulsory @@

Zeffy July 29th, 2010 4:58 AM

Where are the Fortune Faeries? They have 0 ATK/0 DEF! The most awesome of al-*shot*

What those guys said are pretty much what I'd say, too. But Interdimensional is awesome to not play it correctly. XD

EDIT: lolz at "Fotune"

Circuit July 31st, 2010 1:35 PM

There, a little more added to the deck, and taken away. One Catopelas taken for Fortunes Future and Solitaire and Catepolas taken for two Inherited Fortune.

Cirrus August 1st, 2010 3:31 PM

Inherited Fortune isn't very good. Just cut to 41. >_<

Agreed here. It... Well, I don't really have much of an argument here. It just... Isn't very good.

Also, now that you have a Tuner monster in there, please prepare an Extra Deck so we can see what you're running.

Cirrus August 1st, 2010 7:34 PM

It's technically a -1, and has silly activation requirements.

That's why.

(Hand -2, field +2, use of card -1 = -1)

Circuit August 2nd, 2010 6:20 AM

Thats updated, now with Extra Deck. Deck now 41. I would like help with my Extra Deck as well please.

Gymnotide August 2nd, 2010 9:59 AM

Deck doesn't use Spell Counters, so none of the Magicians are really appropriate, save for Arcanite... Though, his effect is pretty... Paltry as well.

Cirrus August 2nd, 2010 10:46 AM

Arcanite is typically a two-for-one. This is not paltry at all. =D

Circuit August 6th, 2010 9:00 AM

I'll add in another Magical Android, but I'm not sure how to fill the remaining two spaces. Although, is it really necessary for me to fill my extra deck completely?

Gymnotide August 6th, 2010 10:57 AM

Well, yeah... Since you want to be able to have a Synchro for as many possible situations as your can.

Circuit August 7th, 2010 1:47 AM

Updated again. Added Thought Ruler Archfiend and 2 Slip of Fortune.

Cirrus August 7th, 2010 11:00 AM

As said before Slip of Fortune is bad. It sits dead half of the time.

I propose you cut to 41.

Also you're missing some really crucial synchros. Brionac comes to mind. As does Colossal Fighter.

Apple Juice August 7th, 2010 1:25 PM

-1 Ancient Fairy Dragon
-1 Thought Ruler Archfiend
+1 Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
+1 Colossal Fighter

Easy fix, Cirrus.

Gymnotide August 7th, 2010 8:46 PM

You don't need Tempest Magician. Your deck doesn't focus around Spell Counters at all so her effect is useless to replenish Spell Counters and it can't dish out much damage using its secondary effect. If you're looking for a strong attacker, she's not the one you want to go for.

You can also safely drop Explosive Magician because (1) you aren't using Spell Counters, so his effect won't be used often and (2) there are better 6 starred Synchros to choose from; Goyo Guardian has more ATK and a nice anti-box effect and Brionac has a devastating and game-winning return effect.

I also agree with dropping Slip of Fortune completely. First off, it's good to have a lower deck count so your deck runs faster. Next, Slip of Fortune's effect is sort of useless. The only really good way to use it is with Light and summoning Fire or something to reap the effects. Since it only negates one attack, though, and also removes one of your monster from play, it's disadvantageous to use and has a could-be-better effect.

Circuit August 10th, 2010 11:42 AM

Updated, Tempest And Explosive outa there, I've put in a thought ruler though, to fill my extra deck. How should I fill the remaining three spaces though?

Cirrus August 10th, 2010 4:45 PM

A copy of Chimeratech would be cool. As well as your choice of generic 9-star (Trishula if you have it, Mist Wurm if you don't). IMO you should cut a copy of Android for another of Catastor, but it's just personal preference. Last slot could be spent on either Arcanite or Urquizas.

Circuit August 11th, 2010 1:32 PM

What Chimeratech? Also, Catastor added and Arcanite added.

Cirrus August 11th, 2010 1:38 PM

Chimeratech Fortress Dragon. Because Overdragon is pretty bad when you don't plan to OTK. : p

Circuit August 12th, 2010 6:35 AM

How would I summon it though?

Cirrus August 12th, 2010 6:44 AM

You make Machinas lose massive field advantage when they have Cydra out. =D

Circuit August 12th, 2010 7:10 AM

You mean something like Soul Exchange, but different?

Cirrus August 12th, 2010 7:38 AM

I mean sending their Cyber Dragon and all their other Machines to the Graveyard to fuse for Chimeratech.

Fusion materials can be from either side of the field.

Circuit August 12th, 2010 8:01 AM

Oh yes! I see now, I'll put it in then. I know someone who uses Machinas. So that'l could be funny. Also, has Trishula been released in ENglish? At the tornament I go to we're not allowed Japanese cards (damn it).

Cirrus August 12th, 2010 8:23 AM

Not yet, unfortunately...

So bring a copy of Mist Wurm instead, I guess. :x

Circuit August 12th, 2010 10:05 AM

What tournaments are you allowed to use Japanese cards?

Gymnotide August 12th, 2010 10:26 AM

It depends on the rules, actually. Every tournament is different...
I know there was one where you could use Japanese cards and / or proxies, but only if you had a copy of the real English card readily available on the side, in a binder or something.

Circuit August 12th, 2010 11:11 AM

Oh right. Ok. I'll see if I can talk to the manager of the tournaments.
