If you wanted a card for that effect wouldn't Kuriboh be a better choice because you still get a similer effect and still get to use Kuriboh for it's DARK Attribute to summon a Chaos card while with Necro Gardnav you do not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929461639495590271.post-50546623137991710592011-09-27T08:30:26.941+10:002011-09-27T08:30:26.941+10:00I have to say that when i went online to find a be...I have to say that when i went online to find a better Chaos deck then the current Beatdown Chaos deck i have been running for a long time now that i didn't think id find one this well put together.I will put this deck together and give it a try but not have mirror force or Jinzo will be something new for me.It's always great to see that someone still plays Traditional Format & likes it asmuch as i do.<br /><br />~Jeff From OrlandoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929461639495590271.post-37791941757603900482011-07-01T10:37:30.356+10:002011-07-01T10:37:30.356+10:00Awesome deck!

He uses a hand destruction/Yata-lock deck. So, it's not very fair.<br />To my point, aren't the two Chaos Sorcerers a little too much? I was thinking of trying to replace them.

I must say I really like the way your write your articles; they have awakened an interest in me towards playing the Traditional Format. I have been playing Yu-Gi-Oh! for about 2 years in Advanced Format only; I believe I will have a better understanding of the game if I play Traditional as well - sadly, I don't know many interested players in my area.<br /><br />Finally, I would like to add that I have been playtesting with some of the other decks you've written about. There is one in particular that I really enjoy because it's so different to the playstyle I'm used to with my Advanced Format build - but I will post about that where appropriate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929461639495590271.post-61466282143051168792011-04-20T14:27:30.923+10:002011-04-20T14:27:30.923+10:00Yes, Plaguespreader Zombie is by far one of the mo...Yes, Plaguespreader Zombie is by far one of the most splashable cards in the game right now, and the thought did indeed cross my mind to include it here. However, I was at a loss for being able to send it to the Graveyard easily enough in order to make best use out of its effect: Painful Choice and Graceful Charity both clearly stand out as ways to do so, but no deck architect worth listening to would ever be stupid enough to declare these cards drawn in every game, nor drawn in every game at the correct time; also, with the Normal Summon going to Armageddon Knight, and the Knight's effect being used to send either Disk Commander or Necro Gardna to the Graveyard, depending on the situation (during neither of which Plaquespreader Zombie would be indicated), simply Summoning Plaguespreader Zombie from the hand is out of the question.<br /><br />I myself never found the two copies of Chaos Sorcerer to create dead draws. In a relatively slower deck such as this, it is highly unlikely one will ever draw many Chaos Monsters in a single game; if this ever happens, however, it is more than likely one has reached a late game, in which one's Graveyard infrastructure should be built up substantailly.<br /><br />I would like to end by saying that I do agree, at least somewhat, with everything you said; I welcome disagreement and discussion, because without that knowledge will never move forward. Thank you for posting here (and posting so eloquently, might I add), and bringing a little bit of sunshine to my day.<br /><br />I would also like to say that the decklists posted here are by no means absolute nor perfect. They are intended for the most part as skeleton builds with which interested parties can then take and change for themselves if necessary.<br /><br />-JamieJamie Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00181417116634553328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929461639495590271.post-67948262694308512602011-04-19T16:30:24.571+10:002011-04-19T16:30:24.571+10:00About the monster lineup... have you considered:
-...About the monster lineup... have you considered:<br />- 1 Chaos Sorcerer<br />+ 1 Plaguespreader Zombie<br /><br />I believe PSZ is the better choice because it allows for Synchro Summons with an additional Lv. thanks to DH-Disk Commander. It also removes itself from play due to its effect, which works nicely with Dimension Fusion and Return From the Different Dimension. The latter is notheworthy because of the ability to send monsters back to the Graveyard due to Syncrho Summoning; it works as a backup plan to keep monsters on the field in case your OTK is prevented - and you might get to recycle the effects of PSZ, Necro Gardna and get LIGHT monsters in the Graveyard for the summoning of another Chaos monster. And its drawback of placing a card on top of your Deck isn't so bad when you consider Card of Safe Return.<br /><br />On the other hand, having a second Chaos Sorcerer doesn't seem like a good idea for me. I usually find it to be a dead draw when you only have 5 LIGHT monsters in the deck; and the only reliable way to send them to the Graveyard is through Painful Choice or by summoning them to the field. Besides, Chaos Sorcerer is easily outshined by its 2 counterparts; therefore I think it's better to leave it at one.<br /><br />I'm new to playing the Traditional Format, so if you disagree with anything I said please explain. I would like to know about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
