Well, i haven't been excited for any set to come out
sinc IOC, every set that has come out since IOC has
seemed more childish than the last, a throwback to
the old days of pokemon TCG. The new set comming out
however, i am very anxious.
Since I started playing in the IOC age (i was
collecting from MRD on but IOC made me want to play)
i've always wanted to play a really good "remove
from play" deck. I made a decent one that really
irked the best in my state (its disconcerting to see
a remove pile larger than your draw pile) but it was
only half decent.
However, with the new EOJ cards, its more than
doable.
MacroCosmos- from the spoilers i've seen this is
going to be a continuous trap card (or spell card,
but i hope its a trap)that has Banisher of The
Lights affect, everything that would be sent to the
graveyard is instead removed from the game.
Celestial Convergence- quickplay spell, destroy all
monsters on the field, do 300 damage, can only
played when MacroCosmos is on the field.
Then there is another Banisher-Like monster, except
it is a 1600 attacker instead of a 2000 defender.
The deck i would make from this would be a hybrid
control, burn, aggro, moslty control.
MacroCosmos as a trap would be perfect, Dark World
got ya down? Flip it as a chain and no monsters hit
the field, Magical Merchant? laugh as every monster
is removed instead of hitting the graveyard. Dead
Draws would now include Magician of Faith, elemental
searchers, Call of the Haunted, and Premature
Burial.
Sangan dies a horrible, pointless death. Shuts down
most cookie cutters :) Convergence? Quick Play Dark
Hole, i don't need to ellaborate.
Return From the Different Dimension? Your friend,
and with Convergence down, a bad play for your
enemy.
Other benefits? Certainly.
Access to Monster Reborn and Pot of Greed in
MULTIPLES! If you run the deck dedicated, you have
no graveyard, and Chaos Greed is Pot of Greed
without limit, Dimension Distortion is Monster
Reborn without limit. Want to go full burn (burn???)
There is a card that makes it so no battle phase
occurs as long as there is no spells in your
graveyard.
For the specifics. Chaos End is good, another Dark
Hole that won't require MacroCosmos out as a regular
magic card. DD Survivor is ungodly, unlimited end
phase summons (DD Scout is limited to 1 per end
phase per scout). Anyone rmember ectoplasmer? Remove
your survivor to do 900 and then resummon it. Was it
already removed, bring it back, sack it, resummon
it.
That is legal. Sakuretsu armors? DD survivor makes
it a 1-0, like a negate attack. You fight a clear
field since your opponent will have to tribute
during their turn, or place it face down, at which
point Nobleman will get it. If its a searcher,
nothign happens, same with sangan. Not many people
play 4 star or lower with higher than 1800 defense.
Soul Absorbtion will let you gain 500 life whenever
a card is removed, so you can gain life you doing
damage, and gain it when your opponent uses your
ectoplasmer.
DD assailant and DDWL work perfectly in the format,
even morso than usual. In fact, this deck can easily
be a warrior variant since you'll probably have 3 dd
survivor already.
Lifepoint cost cards won't hurt, in fact Solemn
Judgement may be your best friend. Not to mention
you have up to 9 cards to do what the core of the
strategem requires (6 monsters and 3 MacroCosmos, as
none are limited), plenty of monster destruction
capeabilities, and with some of the new negating
cards and some of hte old ones.... :) Card Draw,
Monster Reborn, and denying hte opponent a lot of
their strategy. With the right modifications for
your play style this could easily be tier 1 stuff.
Anyway, i plan on hitting 2 Sneak Preview events, my
deack will be tested, worked on, pimped, and ready
on day 1 when the set will be legal in all
tournament formats.
ps. One more thing, Majestic Mech Ohka, 2400 attack
0 tribute if you are willign to let it die in the
end phase, make that loss a gain, crash it into
something, tribute it for ectoplasmer. :) happy
gaming everyone!
