Looks like Structure Deck with Gorz.

For Geminis, I would probably go something more along the lines of... hmm. A Trade-In engine would work quite well if you use Phoenix Gearfried, and Junk Synchron can be potentially fitted into this deck, what with the frequent use of Featherizer.

It's difficult to tell what you want, because this is still basically the structure deck with Gorz added and I don't really know what kind of deck you are looking towards building. Evocator Chevalier should be run in 3s if you want to acquire another copy already, and Hidden Armory should be run in 3s as well, alongside Big Bang Shot, because BBS is amazing removal and hilarity ensues if you equip it onto an opponent's monster. The wording of the card allows you to inflict piercing damage every time they attack a defense-position monster that you control with the BBS monster, and that plus Featherizer equals epic win.

Not a major update, but its a start I suppose. Tell me what you think guys. By the way I am aiming for a Gemini deck that does well in tournaments.

Geminis eh. Try out a Knight of the Red Lotus. Remove Dark Valkyria, replace it with better stuff. You need a good ole cyber valley or two. Remove pheonix blade, add a lightning vortex.

 

[jamiemoore2]

Well. OK. Thanks for the comment Kobold. I will try it out and see how it goes. I have to admit that I was planning to use Dark Valkyria three times in order to have something for Dark Armed Dragon which I am expected to get in about a week or two. However after researching Knight of the Red Lotus I realised that it would go better in a Gemini deck so thanks a lot. I have tried to find a suitable replacement for Phoenix Blade and had no luck. Guess being away from the game for ages makes you forget somethings. I forgot where to get Lightning Vortex so I will have to research that.

Silent Doom should probably be summarily booted out of the deck, along with D.D. Warrior. I mean, Warrior Lady is superior to it in every way, other than the fact that the effect is optional in Warrior Lady's case, which can be good or bad.

Knight of the Red Lotus is a horrible choice for Geminis. It might LOOK good, but it sucks in undefinable amounts when you have it dead in your hand and either too many or too few Geminis in the graveyard. In short, NO. If you really, really, REALLY want to use Knight of the Red Lotus, run Dragon's Mirror and Superalloy Beast Raptinus for good synergy and a 2200 ATK/DEF Fusioned beater as well as Divine Sword Phoenix Blade, which helps control the amount of monsters in your graveyard and is therefore awesome - plus, it's Evocator Chevalier fodder, which is always cool. D.D.R. - Different Dimension Reincarnation can be considered if you're already running so many RFG Geminis.

Gemini Spark, Woodland Archer, and Gemini Booster are cards that can be looked at - especially Gemini Spark. Herculean Power is a possible card to add.

Oh, and Flying Kamakiri is beautiful for grabbing Featherizer or another Kamakiri, or even Gemini Soldier, which is actually more usually done.

Cyber Valley sucks majorly in Geminis. Don't run it. Lightning Vortex is possible, but before everything run Heavy Storm FIRST and foremost. Giant Trunade might be more appropriate for big swings to return your Equip cards back to your hand, but you need something to clear spells and traps from the field in an instant.

I am very happy with this deck at the moment but feel it is not ready for tournaments. Please let me know what you think.

P.S Thanks guys for the comments. They were really helpful.

I think that Geminis, GigaVise and Dark Armed don't mix very well. My advice is to play just one, and GigaVise incorporates a very effective DARK engine, because otherwise you're not going to draw into anything useful whatsoever.

Twilight Rose Knight should go die in a hole. If it was a Plant Tuner, I'd be really happy. However it's a Warrior, so it should go die in a hole as a result. Call of the Haunted and Mystical Space Typhoon are far better choices.

Stick to one decktype and make a deck based on that, because I see three conflicting engines here which causes overextension.
