Where has all the toons gone?-Shovel Whacker ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: bob bob Date: Sun, 24 Apr 2005 12:52:59 -0700 (PDT) "WHERE HAS ALL THE TOONS GONE?" Returnking1990@yahoo.com Now I know what you're thinking, "Who cares about the toon cards?" I know there's perfectly respectable reasons that toon decks are bad, and that without the japanese new toon monsters like Toon GAF, they are even less playable, but I beg to differ. There are a couple reasons why toons stink, but I have pledged to knock them down with a golden shovel. 1) What are the chances you'll even draw toon world?- put three in your deck, and have plenty of draw power, you'll do just fine. DUh. Let's think for one second. YOu have a forty card deck. With three toon worlds, you have 37 cards that are not toon world. Add graceful, pot, jar, and perhaps a few monsters with drawing cards, about three, and you've given 6 slots to draw power. That means that your drawing power, and the three toon worlds equal 31 cards that are not what you need. 2) IF toon world dies, they all die. What happens then?Back to common sence. I'm pretty sure that if you use an imperial, the toons will stay on the field, but i'm not exactly sure. Also, if you want to play in advance, use lots of magic drains, jammers, and perhaps others that I don't feel like listing. Just defend against spell removal. 3)They can't attack the same turn they're summoned -You may be in a duel when you need to attack right away, but that's pretty rare if you know how to use a toon deck. Just add a few GAF's or a beserk gorilla so you can fight back even when your opponent makes it hard to summon your toons. Remember, if they're alive for a turn, they can attack directly the next. Just wait til the card that lets you attack the turn a monster is summoned. THen you can severely whack your opponent. I have a cool combo to use with toons. Use Vengeful bog spirit. Since it takes a turn for your toons to attack, it won't matter if they can't attack the turn they're summoned, but it could really put a crapper against your opponent. 4)WhAT IF THE THIRD toon WORLD DIES?- use magician of faith. Also, add cards like the shallow grave so you can revive your magicains and continue to get more chances to play toon world. That's it for me, but I will end this tip with a deck list for what I think would be a respectable toon deck.
