Pook's Place
Another Pook Deck:
My Spontaneous Blue-Eyes White Dragon Deck
3.23.05 - By Pook 

            Last week, I was bored.  Naturally, I turned to my cards to find something to do.  While scanning through my book of holos, I realized that I had quite a few Blue-Eyes White Dragon support cards.  So, I figured, what the heck.  So in about 30 minutes, I built a fun deck.  This is not, by any means, a competitive deck.  No, this deck is purely for casual play.  I figured I’d share it with you call, and maybe some of you could even tweak it enough to make it competitive.  By the way, it’s new-ban list compliant.

            Obviously, the backbone of the deck is the Blue Eyes White Dragon.  The best possible opening hand involves having at least two of the following: Manju, Paladin of White Dragons, White Dragon Ritual.  If you have the Paladin and Ritual, sacrifice from your hand and still summon Manju to get another Paladin or Ritual.  If you have Manju and one of the pieces, summon him to get the other piece.  Then, tribute Paladin for Blue Eyes – if you’re the first one to go, you don’t have to worry that Blue Eyes can’t attack.  You can start off the duel with a 3000 attacker on the field (I have gotten it to work several times).  Another great opening hand is Kaibaman and a Blue Eyes.  Kaibaman works just like Red Eyes Chick, so just summon Kaibaman and immediately bring out Blue Eyes.  It’s faster than using 2 turns with Kaiser Sea Horse.  The third great opening hand is getting Divine Dragon Ragnarok and Lord of D., then having The Hex or Polymerization.  If you have the two necessary monsters and The Hex all on the field, Hex acts like Polymerization.  Naturally, you won’t get the three monsters on the field at once, but that’s why you want the other Hex effect.  If you have the Hex, one monster, and Polymerization, Hex is a fusion sub.  Best thing is that these don’t have to be on the field.  So, use the better effect and bring out King Dragun as soon as you can.  Not only does he have the Lord of D. no-Dragon-targeting effect, but you can also Special Summon a dragon from your hand once per turn.  There is no level limit on this either.  If you can get him out, you can Special Summon Blue Eyes, no problem. 

            Well, I shouldn’t really say no problem.  This deck does have a big weakness when it comes to opening hands.  The worst case scenario is drawing (including your 6^th card) 2 Blue Eyes, Polymerization, 2 Paladin of White Dragons, and Chaos Sorcerer.  Congratulations, you just passed on your opening turn.  Sure, this hand is a long-shot, but you can get stuck easily.  Then again, no deck is without it’s share of bad luck.  But remember, this is a fun deck.  I figured that since I made a Yugi deck, I should have the Yin to the Yang and have a Kaiba deck.  But I like playing it.  And luck isn’t too big of an issue – Divine Dragon Ragnarok sort of looks like Falcor from The Never Ending Story, and he was, after all, a Luck-Dragon. 

By the way, everyone, it’s only 6 more weeks until the one year anniversary of Pook’s Place!  I’m hoping for a huge extravaganza by then, so there’s lots of planning to be done.  Happy dueling!
