deckbuilding tips.- Jason C
Hey everyone. First tip I've given for site but here
goes. There are so many
cards and archtype creature decks that I've seen
less popular nowadays but these tips should note if
want to try a new deck, getting bored with deck
(infomercial pun) or just missing some good card.
Heres recipe for new shiny
deck making:
1. Look up cards in collection or trade preferably
commons (Anciant Santuary
set or after) and either creature types or combos
that arn't that much popular. For example: Dark
World or Archfiend fiends for creatures or Spartial
Collapse+Ojama Trio+Ground Collapse for combos.
2. Choose a balance or just one of these deck
archtypes: Otk, Burn, Control (there are many types
of control but choose from: Mill, Hand Destroy or
Field).
3. Keep a balance of draw say about 5 cards
(creatures, spells or traps like
Jar of Greed) and if I recommend having a ratio deck
of fairly "won't care if destroyed" type traps.
Example: Crop Circles and Brainwashing Beam, Magic
Jammer, Dust Tornado.
4. If missing some powerful cards like Mirror Force
or Royal Command find a common version (they arn't
half bad). For example: Mirror Wall for Mirror Force
or Light of Intervention for Royal Command.
5. Support cards are very important and they can be
your homework. The challenge is making a deck with
as little tourny common cards as possible.
Good side about deckmaking new ideas are personality
(if its a good new deck, then you will be considered
trademark having it), give some players alittle
surprise in gameplay. Bad side about deckmaking are
"your not following the crowd" so to speak with
everyone else, people will say "hay I know that
deck" and you may be less serious in tourny (well
maybe).
Heres some of my winning forgotten combos:
1st) In mill deck make sure you have cleared field
for Ground Collapse then set Spartial Collapse and
Ojama Trio. Activate Ojama Trio at start of
opponents turn with Spartial Collapse then make sure
you have a Magical Blast in your deck to stop
milling. Magical Blast can be drawn from the
graveyard instead of you drawing in your draw phase.
Replacement for Magical
Blast is any burn card.
2) Have a normal 2 star deck. Have 3 Enchanting
Fitting Rooms, 3 Human Wave Tactics, Ultimate
Offering, 3 Heart of the Underdog and try to pull
either Huge Revolution or Law of the Normal.
Its completely open and free suggestion so if not
happy in 30 days then don't ask for a refund.
Thanks for reading.
