YGO:That was then, This is now

Like the ALMIGHTY Waboku. Old School to the fullest. But if you run mostly old school, you might be in for a THRASHING....
Hey!! I only use the cards that I know about. Ex.. Royal Decree. Now I can easily thrash you with that! ;) *grows fire wings again* This habit never goes away!! :( Oh, and KLS, don't call me a flaming idiot ever again.

Just as a question- how many Waboku's can you have in a deck? The max 3, or less?

Also, when you use cards like Enchanted Javelin, is the monster destroyed afterward, or does it still live? Just asking...

nope, enchanted javelin basically means you take 0 damage, so the creature doesn't die.

@ranusha, i never implied you were a flaming idiot, i don't know if you changed however, i did not like the way you posted so...

ACTUALLY....

Spell Sheild is kinda not worth it anymore sinve its been errata'd. You have to discard a SPELL in order to use the "jammer" effect. And Curse Seal is kinda useless too, seeing as how youre dropping a valuable SPELL...

Methinks spells are the backbone of YGO, so I REALLY dont like to willingly discard them. IMO Jammer is the card to go with. Though Magic Drain is better for control (I think you should try running a couple if you already arent, Pogi)

And Im behind you ALL THE WAY on the Cyber Jar thing. Only card I see that lets you pop all monsters on the field AND lets you "pick up" 5 cards. Mmm....And hes nice enough to let you summon a few monsters too. And even better, you can send him home with a well placed Compulsory Evacuation Device and do it all over again.

Anyway, its pretty good so far. Yeh.

The point was Spell Shield has two effects, and Curse Seal is a very good card, and even better after you use Fiber Jar, because if they draw the card then, they can't use it. If your worried about dropping a good spell don't use Curse Seal, or run MOF over Cyber, no drawbacks to MOF like with Cyber, I've seen people in a bad postion and make it worse, for themselfs, like today for example, it happened to my friend several times today! :D

Uhm. NO.

Enchanted Javelin doesent negate the attack, so you gain the life points before the monster gets popped. Its best used when a monster is in DEF mode, that way, you gain a bunch and lose nothing.

Waboku is non restricted, therefore, you can use 3 of them.

Let us not forget that Curse Seal is a double edged sword, as you cannot use the spell you discarded, so youd be doing to yourself the same thing you did to them. ESPECIALLY after Fiber Jar.

And yes. Most old school dragons are 1600 and WEAKER. With NO EFFECTS. New skool dragons are the way to go.

I regret to inform you, and if you don't mind me saying this than, if you go all straight out Old School Dragons, your going to most likely get SLAUGHTERED.

then let me get slaughtered, because that is all your opinion, i'm ready to face the consequences of my actions, so if you do not wish to have anything positive to say, than please leave, i was waiting for some constructive critism but all i've been hearing from you lately, is about how i should run my deck....
 
I was just informing you of the most likely fact of what is probally going to happen, it was constructive critism at first but you didn't want to do what I suggested, and then you said you wanted to run old school dragons, congrats on a theme deck, and if it can bet vets at this game then I'll be suprised, but I was only telling the truth. If you were once one of the best players, and said you were really good then people that duel you will be expecting you to be good and to have a hard duel I was trying to help keep your deck as good as it can be but you didn't take some of my advice. Now if you want to keep some of the cards I said take out just post the reson why you want to keep them. Sorry if I came off bad in that post but I was only trying to help! :D
 
something came into mind the other day as I was observing the store that was going to host the next Regionals at my place: the guys are using time seal like it was god or something and I noticed just how good it was. Wow...the thing won this one guy like 3 games out of the amount of time I spent there almost single-handedly (I'm even talking about like those were regulars there and stuff. Crazy).

For the dragon thing: seriously tho if KLS can pull this one off we may see something pretty cool. That is provided that KLS pulls it off. Maybe we shouldn't pass down the judgements about it being a horrific deck against everything until it's at least molded into shape first.

I know what you mean about people criticizing you. I've had it happen to me before. Critics can be idiots because they look on the outside, not the inside. Only, when you criticzed the Egyptian God Monsters, You were criticizing me. I feel like I get no respect around here.

excuse me, but i won tournaments with that deck....., and if you guys think that i really can't pull this off, you guys have another thing coming to you, believe me, i've made Warrior decks work in their ghetto days....

@ranusha
if you read my post carefully, i said "real duelists don't need god cards to win", i'm sorry if you felt offended by it, but that was my opinion and mine only, but when you said "don't mess with ra" i started giggling madly thinking "is she naturally retarded?" if you truly felt that way then you should've said something in that post, however you said something as mindless as "don't mess with ra" but i don't regret what i did so.....

Sorry, but I just had to say this: NO YOU WOULDN'T> You would not be hurting yourself as well as the opponent. What the card says, if I recall, is that it's effect includes the card DESTROYED by this effect. that includes the very card they played, but NOT the card you DISCARDED for Cursed Seal. It is the very same reason why DMoC isn't removed from play by a discard effect: because discard effects are not considered destroying them. Cursed Seal is not a double'edged sword. It's just a very heavy sword with a very, very sharp blade.

Warrior decks were always good if built right, they didn't have "ghetto days." So you won tourneys with that, maybe win it was Traditional Format, but now it's Advanced Format and the meta-game has changed a lot, and "Old school Dragons," have never worked since the old school days, that's why their one of the most underplayed types! :D
 
O_o....misread it....that shall be known as mistake number 2. So you DONT screw yourself over. But you still have to drop a spell card to use it, and its only useful against things people run in threes. This USED to screw MST over, but the banlist took care of that. Id run it if you didnt have to drop a spell, theyre just too useful to be thrown away like that...
 
Well if you Curse Seal one of their best magic cards and then use Fiber Jar they might draw it the time where they need something else, and if they need that card and draw it it has no use because they never played it. So dropping one magic card is a small price to pay for activating such a good effect, and if your that parinoid about losing a magic then use Magician of Faith.
 
It's better than Magic Jammer though. MJ still makes you drop a card, but unlike Cursed Seal, if you MJ and then fiber, you totally wasted your magic jammer. however, curse seal a card and then fiber it all, and you'll get your magic card back plus Your opponent still can't user theirs.

maybe that's what happened around where you lived, however in California, Dragon decks were quite popular and that deck seemed to have never failed me, i thought that was my best creation ever since i played YGO.
 
The meta-game has probally changed in Cali too, you just haven't been keeping up with it.

I suggest you won't listen to some of my advice then you just go back to the Yata-Hand Control you had before you quit YGO, just take out the banned cards. Post that deck up and I could help fix that.
 
Uhm...you kinda cant use Yata control with no bans. Yata himself is banned.

And by the way, of Dragons were so common, why didnt you just build a Buster Blader/Paladin deck and own all of the dragons around? WOuldnt that make more sense than following a trend.

Newer dragons = better dragons. Theres no excuse for running something like Koumori Dragon.
