Deck Fix: Spear Cretin OTK - Master of Shadows

I don't need to introduce myself, Pojoers. It's Master of Shadows. Crap. I just introduced myself. Oh well. I have another deck fix for you all, so first, the message:

Hi, this was just an idea I had after looking at Spear Cretin.

So you have one Spear Cretin face-down and one in the graveyard + either Mass Driver or Shadow Priestess of Ohm face-up on the field. Flip and tribute Cretins continuously = OTK??

Would the OTK work???? Also if the OTK doesn't work for  what ever reason I think it would be great to change it around and add Card  of Safe Returns to  it for an Exodia Deck...

Monsters (15)

3 Spear Cretin
3 Shadowpriestess of Ohm
3 Mystic Tomato
2 Cannon Soldier
1 Sangan
1 Morphing Jar
1 Snipe Hunter

Spells (18)

3 Hammer Shot
3 Mass Driver
3 Nightmare Steelcage
2 Foolish Burial
2 Lightning Vortex
1 Swords Of Revealing Light
1 Level Limit Area B
1 Monster Reborn
1 Premature Burial
1 Heavy Storm

Traps (7):

3 Sakuretsu Armor
2 Bottomless Trap Hole
1 Gravity Bind
1 Magic Cylinder

  total: 40

Please try to fix this soon because I would love to try it out at my local this week.
Thanks

So we have a Spear Cretin OTK deck here. Interesting. Well, first, to answer your question, you can't keep flipping Spear Cretin and Tributing it off, etc. You can't change the Battle Position of a monster the turn it's summoned or after it declares an attack. Even though, after flipped, you can Tribute one to bring back the other, you still can't flip it the same turn you bring it back. Fortunately, there's a solution to that, but first, to the cuts:

Cards to cut:

- 3 Shadowpriestess of Ohm

- 1 Morphing Jar

- 1 Mystic Tomato

- 3 Hammer Shot

- 3 Sakuretsu Armor

- 1 Magic Cylinder

I dropped 12 cards. Ohm will go in favor of something that will speed things up for us. The same with Morphing Jar. Mystic Tomato (just one) will go because we need the space. Hammer Shot goes because we need space for something to speed things along and also for a bit of protection. Same with Sakuretsu Armor and Magic Cylinder.

Cards I'd add:

+ 3 Toon Cannon Soldier

+ 3 Toon Table of Contents

+ 3 Hand Destruction / 1 and 2 Allure of Darkness (if you can get it, use it)

+ 3 All-Out Attacks

Ohm left for Toon Cannon Soldier merely because Toon Cannon Soldier is a bit more searchable. Toon Table of Contents helps to thin out deck out so we can get what we need faster. The Hand Destructions (or Allure of Darkness if you get it) will help us dig for whatever we need. All-Out Attacks is one of the pieces vital to the OTK. When you bring back your Spear Cretins, All-Out Attacks will automatically flip them, giving them their effects when you Tribute them off, allowing for a loop that leads to an OTK. That's the solution.

Now, one other thing. You can replace the original Cannon Soldiers with some more draw power like Upstart Goblin (don't worry about the Life Point increase since the loop will drop their Life Points to zero whether they started with 8000 or 800,000) or Dark World Dealings. I wish you luck on this. Maybe someone will improve upon my improvements. Who knows. Enjoy and OTK people.

That's all for now. Questions, deck fixes, suggestions for articles, praise, etc. can be sent to darkdestructionv30@yahoo.com

Until next time....
