Subject: Andrew Lee - "Deck Destruction Strategy..."

   A deck type that is very very commonly looked over
in most card games is the Deck Destruction decks
(minus games like Harry Potter, Decipher's Star Wars,
simply because, well, that's the whole point in the
first place.) These decks are based around completely
nuking your opponent's library directly, instead of
going against his life points. There are many
advantages to this. First, Deck Destruction can't be
negated in the sense, in the current enviroment, there
are no ways to get your graveyard back (Penguin
Knight...and how many card would be able to discard it
from the library?) Two, many players don't expect it.
A lot of the players i've played with my deck
destruction deck don't even realise what i'm doing
until i've knocked them down to a meager 10 or so
cards. Finally, well, it's something new, for a
change.
    Deck Destruction isn't the easiet to play right
now, simply because of certain key cards that are
almost in every single one of these decks are not out
in english (yet).
    Ok, so now i've tweaked your interest enough to
where you want to build one. Where do you start?
   The most important part is not to die, even without
big creatures. You'll want to have plenty of defensive
cards, the Hane Hane/ Magician of Faith / Swords of
Revealing light combo is always nice, and Messenger of
Peace is also great. Banisher of Peace is sometimes
used, but i wouldn't stick it in the main deck, as
though it's a 2000 defense mon for 4 stars, and it
causes cards to be removed from the game, it also
removes your own cards. Wall of Illusion, a very
underrated card, is also a good choice. The reason i
choose this card so often in defensive decks is all 4
level monsters that can kill it right now have
drawbacks to them. The only 4 stars that can defeat it
soundly without hurting yourself aren't out in english
yet, and are also super rares, if my memory serves me correctly.
   Now, you've got him in a lockdown. The problem is,
you went first, and your decks going to run out before
his! What to do? In comes the only combo that will be
able to put you over the hump (with proper backup by
Magic Jammers, Mystical Space Typhoons, u kno the
crew). Try to get your opponent to place 3+ magic/trap
cards on the field. You can help him (and speed up the
deck destruction process) by using Cyber Jar and
forcing him to draw cards. Drop a Giant Turrenade,
then re-place all your magic/trap cards, try to get
your hand size as small as possible, then pull of a
Card Destruction or two, magician of faiths only help
in this situation by getting the Card Destructions
back.
   Prevent from using Confiscation or Steadfast Guard,
as it kind of waters down the effectiveness of Card
Destruction in this certain situation. Delinquent Duo (gag...Upper 
Deck really changes those card names from original jap titles...) 
is even worse so...yeah. Go now, young one, and build decks to your 
hearts content! Any questions, email me at Andrewllee@yahoo.com. Bye :-D
