My Opinion: I know what your thinking: “Who in the world would play a PGD Deck?”. I would. Not in any tournaments, but for fun. Truthfully, this deck is just a deck off the top of my head. It’s not meant to be in tournaments. But, if you want to give it a shot, I suggest Yomi Ship and some Zombie support from other packs.

Pros: Every card in this deck is common. Easy to find means easy to build.
Also, the cards from PGD all work together. Another “Pro” to mention is the Gravekeeper “Series” of cards from PGD that made it into this deck.
Also, you have some great card effects, like Dark Dust Spirit and Dark Jeroid.

Cons: It would be almost impossible to customize with only common cards and with Dark Dust Spirit as you’re strongest card, you don’t have much power either. Also, without Necrovalley, you could never fully use the Gravekeeper’s. Plus, without some rare cards, and you always need some rare cards, your chances of winning are slim.

Bottom Line: I’d only recommend this deck to skilled duelist (extremely skilled duelist) who can really make a deck work for them and those of you who believe in “The Heart of the Cards” (And I do). But of your willing to lose the PGD-only name, add some Zombie support and some more Gravekeeper’s and give it a shot.

Trivia Bit: The OCG version of Ring of Destruction has grenades and is called "Bell of Destruction"

Brought to you by the following pack: Pharaonic Guardian.
“We brought you Lava Golem and Ring of Destruction too!”

Until Next Tuesday,
