Wind beatdown deck.

 

The advantage of a Wind beatdown deck over a spellcaster/fiend deck is the difference between yami and rising air current.

 

Yami adds 200 to the attack and defence of all fiends and spellcasters.

 

Rising air current raises the attack of all wind monsters by 500 and decreases their defence by 400.

 

That means those non tribute 1800’s go to a whopping 2300 rather than your 2000 or 2100 (in the case of Gemini elf). This deck can work as a normal beatdown just with the use of wind monsters, my personal favourites are Harpies brother, Dancing fairy & Garuda The wind Spirit/Blue Winged Crown. I do not have unlimited money and so my deck does not contain some extremely rare staples as I wish it would.

I played this deck in a local Saturday Tournament, no Tournament packs involved just a small shop trying to sell more packs I think. Although over 20 people entered only a few of them were any good, I say 3 or 4 dudes with Exodia decks. One with an amazing Earth Deck using Gaia Power beatdown, and 2 Limiter Removals. I saw many spellcaster and  fiend decks.. And I say some decks that didn’t make any sense.

 

Duel 1 vs. Exodia Deck (this dude was over 30)

 

He knew what he was doing, the only 2 cards I remember drawing at first were 2 rising Air Current’s and Penguin Soldier. Played Soldier face down, he played some 200 defence. Returned both drew Harpies brother and from their I was pretty much beating down every monster with my 2300 Harpies and a 2200 fairy and then I drew a Nuzzler and it was all over with a 3000 defence monster, trap hole and 2 fissures ready. At the end I was surprised to see he had 3 Pieces of Exodia in his hand, one in the graveyard from confiscation.

 

Final Score 5000 – 0 I used Confiscation and Graverobber =)

 

Second duel… what can I say first hand 2 nuzzlers and a harpies and a fairy, he didn’t have a chance as he was playing Exodia, his Labyrinth wall was overpowered by a Harpies with 3500 attack =P

 

Duel 2 vs. someone who couldn’t play

Firstly he played Gaia the fierce knight without tribute… I explained. He yapped on about the TV show, I think he felt silly. He wasn’t too bad though as he powered up some nice monsters, but then he tried to play a second reborn and said his friend lent him it to win… again I explained.

 

Won both duels, can’t remember scores neither were hard.

 

Duel 3 vs. Spellcaster Beatdown

 

This dude was good, he packed 2 Gemini Elf’s! and had 3 Maha Vailo’s (or summin) and even got out a relinquished. As he went first he played Maha Vailo with axe of despair, I drew fissure, Harpies Brother and a wind current… took early advantage. He never really came back in this duel, I mean he was forced to put GAF’s in defence mode and even when he got out a skull with soul exchange I just equipped another nuzzler to a harpy and won =)

 

4800 – 0

 

The second time round, well I don’t know how but I didn’t draw a monster for 2 turns, and then I drew magician of Faith. He got a heft early advantage, but solemn wishes kept me alive, made a struggle to come back but for some reason a princess of Tsurgi finished me off, I had a javelin ready to win =/ If I cud of powered up my skulls with the rising air current I may have been able to win.

 

0-2300

 

Last duel again he was just overpowered by my Harpies, I got 3 of them on the field at one point all at 2300. He used rageiki…but I still had some fairies with nuzzlers and a penguin soldier and just snapped at his life points continuously. One of my best duels I think.

 

2600-0

 

-=Semi-Final=-

 

Me vs. Lord Of D. Deck.

This guy had 3 Lord of D’s. 3 Blue eyes, 2 Tri-horned and a red eyes! Along with the 3 flute of summoning I was scared. I took early advantage, then  came first flute after he used sangan for his Lord Of D… he brought out a Red-Eyes and a Blue Eyes… I made an amazing Harpies and used Garuda to flip his Lord Of D to attack mode taking heft life points.. he didn’t have time for a second big summoning as I was scared to do anything but attack with everything possible including a penguin soldier to finish him off lol.

 

Last 2 duels I lost, I don’t want to say he cheat shuffled but he used his lord of D combo  times without drawing any cards to search for these monsters. 2 Blue eyes came, then 2 Tri-Horned in the first one. Inn the second one he used 2 flute of summoning on the 3rd turn and brought out Blue Eyes, Red Eyes and 2 Tri-Horned. I ran out of monster removal and lost both due to a lack of a magic Jammer.

 

I heard this guy lost in final to a lethal Machine beatdown by some kid who called himself Bandit Ben (lol, he was only 11 but apparently he countered everything and the other dude never had a chance)
