Deck building Tutorial

hello may tips at building decks...

for starters

pick a deck type /deck strategy: it may be one of these: do not limit yourselves to THESE there are more ways to play Yugioh.. its up to you to discover that! REMEMBER: Creating your deck is half of the fun!

a.) Beat Down - the most basic of all decks.. it is a mix of different cards which all act together to form 1 per 1 card comboes (you use one card to reduce 1 of your opponents by 1 as well) while handling your field conservatively and hit your opponents for either minimal but secure damage or for big chunks that are sure to hit.

b.) OTK decks - these (One Turn Kill) decks sure seem scary these are the decks that WILL kill you if they have the chance.. they are devoted into a single stratagem which would most likely mean clearing the opponent's field and dealing massive damage in a single turn... either by card effects or by battle...

c.) Control deck - ahh my personal favorite.. the best offense is a good defense.. if you can control the moves your opponent makes then of course advantage is sure to be yours! heheh most anti-meta ( decks focused on beating popular decks) are geared towards this

d.) Deck out Deck - milling (sending your opponent's cards in their deck to the grave as fast as you can to reduce their deck to 0...) another fun way to OTK you opponent

well that's it for now since

will add more tomorrow... I'm sleepy...

So I am back again for Step to of: Tips on Constructing your Yugioh Deck!

after picking the Deck type suitable to your desired play style, it is imperative that you also master how to achieve these strategies..

so my topic for tonight is:

Beat down! oh yes... the ever lovable beat down deck..

Beat downs are very basic that is why a lot of duelists prefer using them. it lets you use almost all the cards that you like best because it lets you build your deck around that set of cards

Let us give an example: by picking a monster card:

http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Gene-Warped_Warwolf

Gene-Warped Warwolf
EARTH
level 4
Beast-warrior/Normal
2000ATK
100 DEF

so this is a very basic but decent card (its a Vanilla monster a.k.a. normal...(walay pulos..))

However if we build a deck that supports this cards strengths we can still pull the advantage away from our opponents!

so what strengths are we talking about?

Primarily we look at its stats:

it is an Earth monster, this is means it gets a lot of decent support such as :

Gaia Power (adds 500 ATK)
Spirit Earth Arts - Kurogane (easy method of recursion/ secondary call of the haunted and helps escape targeting effects..)

Secondly:

Is that it is a LEVEL 4 monster: no tributes necessary and it boasts a very decent ATK: 2000!
with stats like these it will probably difficult for your opponent will have a difficulty smashing through it very early on in the game.its DEF may be lacking but why would you put it in DEF anyways, right?

Third:

Its a Beast-warrior so if you add in other monsters such as Enraged Battle Ox you can deal major hurt to your opponents! AND if you focus on a pure beast-warrior deck you can utilize cards such as: Unity of Family (Solidarity)
Also it lets you use it together with other powerhouse Beast-Warrior monsters such as Beast King Barbaros!

Fourth and my last review:

Its a Normal/vanilla monster! a lot of people frown when others use Normal monsters.. however they forget that in the sets: Strike of Neos until Light of Destruction!

Cards such as Justibreak and give Normal monsters the edge as it works just like their personal Mirror force and you can have 3 copies!!

Skill Drain however is the BEST friend of Normal Monsters. being normal as they are they do not lose any effects making this very problematic for your opponent's deck which may rely on their opponent's effects.. oh and did I just tell you that with Skill Drain: Beast King Barbaros will not have its Attack reduced to 1900... meaning its a free normal summonable 3000 beatstick!

so that is how you make a beat down deck, you search for a focal point for your deck and you build around it making it as flexible as you can to accommodate many of your choices...

here is how the deck might look like:

Monsters: 19

3 Gene-Warped Warwolf
3 Beast-king Barbaros
3 Enraged Battle Ox
3 Gladiator Beast Andal
1 Manticore of Darkness
2 Pitch-Black Warwolf
2 Chiron the Mage
1 Darkness Hunter
1 Shiba-Warrior Taro

Spells: 10

1 Heavy Storm
1 Giant Trunade
1 Mystical Space Typhoon
2 Gaia Power
3 Unity of Family
2 Burden of the Mighty
1 Rush Recklessly

Traps:

2 Earth Spirit Arts - Kurogane
1 Torrential Tribute
1 Mirror Force
1 Call of the Haunted
2 Birthright
1 Justibreak
2 Skill Drain

Extra Deck:

1 Goyo Guardian
1 Chain Dragon
1 Blackrose Dragon
1 Stardust Dragon
1 Red Dragon Archfiend
1 AOJ Catastor
1 Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Boundary
1 Thought Ruler Archfiend
1 Colossal Fighter

gusto ko ung rfg deck, tapos swarming. xDD and something like graveyard depending deck . ehehe

hmm RFG swarms have largely died due to the banning of Dimension fusion... graveyard decks are mostly zombies.. but plants have also entered the stage.. Grave decks tend to be easily countered though because of cards such as:

D.D. crow
transmigration prophecy
Crack to a different dimension
Disappear

bUT one of the strongest decks to ever be made in all yugioh (tele-DAD) is a grave reliant deck.. kaya gani nalimit to 1 si Dark Armed Dragon (DAD) XD ahahahhaa

ahh...

ang akong six sam karon kai gi try nakog graveyard dependent. ga salig ko sa backs to the wall then OTK style dayon . risky lang hinoon. .

amung six sams diri kay dependent sa gateway+hand combo..

awww summoning. >.< wala man jud koy gateway ui..

ngano most sa ato kay beatdown? ingana gyud ta ka weak?

dili man weak ang beat down.. katung nagstart ko beat down ang dominant decks. .ay daghan pa man gud to cards sa una na available..

sicne daghan na naban human naa na synchros karun.. naglamang ang swarm decks ug otks..
