Yes, the mass driver one :X

 

[Jimbo]

Just out of some weird curiosity, what's the most expensive type of deck :p

 

[Slice n Dice]

Dark Armed Control w/prize cards. With Gold Sarcophagus and sjc Crush with the Dark Armed Dragons and everything it will sum up to about 5,500.

 

[Thunderpup]

Also consider batterymen OTK !!!

Sure, inferno reckless is as sketchy as ever, but with more ways to field wipe and special summon, it's more deadly and quicker than ever.

It's not that hard to make, cheap and effective. I win casual tournaments out the wazoo going inferno > short circuit. It's so easy to do, not hard to disrupt, but it's still incredibly deadly.

 

[Warthog]

3x Doom Caliber Knight
1x CCV (SJC)
1x Gold Sarcophagus

in some anti-meta deck :P

hey if you have the money and the hook ups its possible I guess.

 

[The Shadow Knight]

Thanks Warthog, I should be able to get most of those. I just hope my nearby shop starts selling the dark emperor structure deck cards seperatly soon =]

Edit: Raiza is quite expensive. Could it be switched with another Monarch? Thesthalos or Mobius perhaps?

Holy shit, I just looked up the Gold Sarcophagus and Crush Card on eBay O.o

I have a binder full of older holo cards... Are there any I should look for that'd sell high? I know I have some of the older nice cards like Jinzo and Black Luster Soldier but I don't know if any of them would sell high...

Edit- Just got my binder...I have 300+ Holo cards but I don't know which if any would sell high ;) I haven't gotten any cards in a few months... Damnit Slice now I'm all intrigued >:[

Edit2- Oh oh I have all five original pieces of Exodia...That rare?

 

[Slice n Dice]

Do you have solemn judgement or mirror force?


TSK: Is 5-8 dollars out of your budget? Raiza is no more than that.

 

[Warthog]

right now I'm looking for Solar Recharge, Lumina, Beast-Wulf and Ryko. Don't really have any money atm but am willing to buy and trade for the cards. If anyone has them and are willing to part with them let me know.

 

[Slice n Dice]

You got the judgement dragons yet? I barely lost to sworn at locals today, didn't draw my sided vanity's fiends to stop the inevitable judgement bomb.

 

[Warthog]

nah I'm testing another variant.. Judgment is too much money for me atm. Its actually for my brother because he is sorta jealous Im running Gladiator Beast, as the deck practically plays itself.

My local store appearantly charges a bit more for it =[
They determine their prices by the demand they get from their customers only, making some cards more or less expensive compared to the ones found on the net. (Raiza is 23 euro...) I'd buy it of the net, but being only 17 and since buying stuff of the net is not allowed by my parents(this sounds childish, I know) I'll have to stick with what I can get in my local store.

Both :O I have them from their original booster packs too :p (I don't know if they were remade or what...) I was quite the collector.

Why are they worth a lot?

From what I've read they are rare and not to forget highly wanted amongst competitive duelists.

 

[Jimbo]

Yea, I remember having Mirror Force when it first came out made people really popular ;) Didn't Mirror Force get banned? I remember being incredibly angry because cards like Monster Reborn and Mirror Force got banned...

 

[The Shadow Knight]

Official list

It's limited at the moment, not banned.

 

[Slice n Dice]

How many solemn do you have jimbo? If 2 plus you can probably play competitively. The card has risen to 25-30 dollars each.

XCpetro and I are heading off to our first local tournament this friday, so I'm posting my deck for final fixes

My current monarch build:

monsters: 22 (trib: 8, non trib: 14)
Cauis the Shadow Monarch x3
Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch x1
Mobius the Frost Monarch x1
Zaborg the Thunder Monarch x1
Dark Dust Spirit x1
Yamata Dragon x1

D.D. Scout Plane x3
D.D. Survivor x3
Arcana Force 0 - The Fool x2
Spirit Reaper x1
Legendary Jujitsu Master x1
Exiled force x1
Snipe Hunter x1
Banisher of the Light x1
D.D Warrior lady x1

spells: 12
Soul exchange x2
Brain Control x1
Creature Swap x2
Dimension Fissure x3
Mystical Space Typhoon x1
Giant Trunade x1
Reinforcement of the Army x2

traps: 6
Phoenix Wing Wind Blast x1
Macro Cosmos x2
Solemn Judgment x1
Torrential tribute x1
Return from the Different Dimensions x1

Main Strategies
-Reliable tribute engine through a combination of Macro and Soul Control, monarchs blah blah blah
-Get off a single hit with Yamata dragon, draw an entire new hand
-Indirect monster destruction through soul exchange and creature swap with scout plane
-Let opponent attack a set Fool, switch to attack next turn and creature swap, can essentially attack directly for rest of game unless tributed (must be set first due to fool's coin toss possibly screwing it up)

Questions:
-what's so unreliable about the Fool that no one uses him?
-is it worth running is single solemn/ wind blast? (I can only find one of each atm)
-Is yamata dragon's alternate form better? (kill opponents entire hand)
-Is it even worth running zaborg, even without any replacements? (lookin for a raiza)
-What should I be looking for in a side deck?
-What's the best way to combat 6 samuari? Apparently its commonly run in my area.
-Is this deck going to stand up to Lightsworn/DAD/6Sam/GB and the like at all?
-Will the new light monarch be a good draw engine when he comes out? (off scout planes/ survivor)

Thanks a ton in advance for any fixes or answers

Blah, I could only find one, I could swear I had another... I have a humongous bag of cards upstairs and a basket full of them downstairs lol, I may have another in there...

I'm not really looking to play competitively again though ;) I was just curious of the value of the cards I've kept for so long.

 

[Animerocks]

This reminds me of how pokemon spiked in popularity on duelistgroundz.

 

[Slice n Dice]

I'm the one that helps all the nubs on dgz with pokemon xD

How does the OTK work?

I never really knew about this type of OTK deck. The only OTKs I remember are the really gay Demise (lost 3 matches against those decks at the regionals in september of last year), Magical Explosion, and Question.

 

[Dragon-Shinobi]

What does Doom Caliber Knight do exactly?

 

[Slice n Dice]

Fiend-level 4-1900 atk/1800 def-dark
Effect: This monster cannot be special summoned. When the effect of an effect monster is activated, you must tribute this card. Negate the activation of the monster's effect and destroy it.


My fucking god that is so broken.

 

[Warthog]

yeah its killer. Almost as killer as Gladiator Beast Chariot and Gladiator Beast Equite combo :P

god I wish we had this card in pass printing.. Gadgets.. STUN.. a lot of deck types get better.
