Subject: FWD: Burn vs. M/T destruction ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Scaryscorpion689@wmconnect.com Date: Sat, 26 Mar 2005 22:57:12 EST First of all, call me BurnKing. I'm not saying that i run the best Burn deck but it is my favorite deck type. Any way, i am going to discuss which format is to be feared more by burn decks assuming Traditional doesn't have Mobius, that Phoenix thing, and has 3 MST. As most of my readers (yeah, right) know, Traditional format allowed some of the most powerful cards ever printed. Raigeki, Imperial, CED, Yata, etc. But obvisouly if i'm talking about burn decks, i'm talking about Harpies Feather Duster, probably the most powerful M/T remover. Not only that, but (remember, this is like nothing happened) MST ran in packs of 3 and Dust Tornado just sat in the Trade binder. Let's of course not forget about Heavy Storm, not so one sided as duster but still scary. Now look at Advanced and New Advanced (both the same, really). First of all, the god of M/T removal was de-throned. Heavy Storm became even more relied on. MST went down to one, thus everyone got out their Dust Tornados as replacements. That's not the end of it though, hey look, here comes Soul of the Duelist! What's this? A one sac monster with 2 MST built in? Hey! Their not limited in any way! Guess what, MST went from 3 to 1 to 6, 6! This thing is practically on stoppable! Don't forget that Phoenix guy. I bet he will be a pain.So now we have 3 Dust Tornado, 3 Mobius the Frost Monarchs, MST, the Poenix, Heavy Storm, and Breaker the Magical Warrior(sry, i forgot him). Add Jinzo and that is one ugly stew of anti-burnness. Whew, that's enough for now. For whoever has taken their time to read this article, thanks, but i'm going to have to leave you hanging. If this gets posted I'll finish it. Next time i'll discuss which format is better for a Burn deck to function in. In the mean time, would you all mind e-mailing me to give me some input (hatemail, advice, opinions, anything)? Until next time... -BurnKing Scaryscorpion689@wmconnect.com
