dark necrofear has an awesome effect, hes just not fast or effective enough.

[Hydra of Ages]

Meh, I somewhat doubt I'd use this competitively anyway, but it's an interesting experiment. I'd probably use it casually, this seems more fun to play than my usual Skill Drain deck.

 

Anything to help this? I'm looking for a way to fit in more Spell/Trap countering, since that's the main threat. I was actually thinking of adding a Battle Mania or two to the deck, as most of the cards need to be attacked to work.

-3 Kuriboh

-1 Flute

 

+2 Trade-In

+2 Grave Squirmer

[Hydra of Ages]

Is Trade-In really that useful when I only have 3 level 8s? Especially since they're never dead draws?

[Akira]

Dark Necrofear is level 8.

[Hydra of Ages]

Hunh, so she is. My mistake.

[mixt]

Personally I wouldn't put in Trade-In unless you are playing a high level deck, which this really isn't. I would throw in magical mallet instead to counter any dead draws, regardless of it's type, and still keep your live ones.

 

Also in a deck featuring Necrofear especially you want to minimize you're no fiends and preferibly add in cards that give a little extra bang when their sent to they grave yard, removed from play, or sitting in the graveyard or removed from play; and it never hurts to have some that pull some freinds in too. So kudos on Giant Germ but GAF need to go allong with BKB

 

I suggest

-3 Beast King Barbados

-2 Goblin Attack Force

-2 Trade-In

-2 Monster Reincarnation

+3 Marie the Fallen One

+2 Kahkki, Guerilla of Dark World

+2 Magical Mallet

+2 Burial from a Different Dimension

 

 

Allright, so I basically just told you to replace a quarter of your deck so I won't take any offense if you don't do that. And I do have further logic but I'm too lazy to type it all out right now. If you ask I'll continue my ranting on how I want you to fix this :P

[Hydra of Ages]

...Erm, okay, but I honestly don't think that'll help much. The deck doesn't really have that much discard power (If it did, I'd have throw in some Dark World support), so I have no idea how I'd get Kahkki to the grave except by Destruction or Reincarnation (which you want taken out... for some reason...)

 

Incredibly opposed to taking out BKB. While it isn't a fiend, a tributeless 3k beatstick is too good to pass up. Even without Skill Drain, it isn't a dead draw, as it can still be summoned with 1900. Why the hell you want Goblin Attack force gone I have no idea, as its...(Checks lolwiki)...actually a warrior, DAMN. They'll have to go, then...

 

Burial has questionable advantages also. With the exception of the Maries, which have questionable advantage, all my cards have effects activating when they're SENT to the graveyard, not while they're still there.

 

200 life points per turn, per Marie, really isn't impressive enough to justify throwing Marie in.

Kahkki has almost no way to activate his effect, like I mentioned.

 

Trade-In I may or may not swap out for Mallets, haven't decided.

[mixt]

Well I figured since the point of a Necrofear deck was to pile your graveyard with fiends, Monster reincarnation is pretty counter productive. Though I realized after I posted that it would allow you to bring back Necrofear while supplying fodder for him. And I'll also grant you that Kahkki was a bit of a stretch, I guess I'm just partial to the dark world cards and he was the best fit for this deck since you could destroy your own fiend if need be and use it for Necrofear. Though Dark World's really need to be in a deck made for them since discarding as a cost doesn't count for ther effects (so Monster Reincarnation on Kahkki is a no-go). Burial from a Different Dimension I was thinking you should add because in a condensed deck you need to get the most from every card and that would allow you to use the exact same monsters to pull out another Necrofear.

 

After my last post I also thought of two others for you. First is "Blasting The Ruins." In a deck designed for sending cards to the graveyard this could help as a last straw to win you the duel, problem with it allways being that it is dead for the vast majority of the duel. Second is "Pot of Avarice." That will help you recycle Necrofear and gain a hand advantage, but it will also cost you some of the monsters in your graveyard which you might not allways be able to afford.

[dead draw]

...don't listen to mixt

but take out the dark necrofears for 2 evil hero infernal gainer

that will add a little more aggro to your play style

which is good for a skill drain deck

[Hydra of Ages]

Meh, I want to keep Necrofear mainly for the coolness value. And the fact the deck was built mainly around her... though I like Infernal Gainer. Only one problem, I don't think it works in conjunction with Skill Drain, so that would give it a total of two likely targets (my Giant Orcs). Or Necrofears, I guess.

 

Blasting the Ruins wouldn't work well here. I can't see me getting 75% of my deck into the graveyard without having anything removed from play. Plus, as you said, it's mainly a dead draw.

Pot of Avarice is something I thought of, but it doesn't play nice with Necrofear and I'm not sure what to neg for it.

[dead draw]

Infernal Gainer's effect activates in the graveyard so it works with skill drain.

[Akira]

Infernal Gainer's effect resolves out of play so it works with skill drain.

 

Fixed, but the principle remains the same in that it gets around Skill Drain.

[Hydra of Ages]

Ah. I figured the fact that it had to be triggered while on the field would kill it. (As in, Skill Drain would negate the effect that removes itself from play).

 

Hm. I could probably neg...Giant Kozaky and say, Newdoria maybe. Giant Kozaki was mainly there to Swap to the opponent's side of the field before hitting it with a Trunade.

you would take the damage.

and there isn't much of a coolness factor if you get your butt handed to you by your opponent.

 

you: I lost, but gg

opponent: I beat you without losing any life points, but you used Dark Nercofear! Thats So0o0o0o0o090o cool!

 

i don't think so

[Hydra of Ages]

Life isn't all about winning, my friend.

 

The entire point of this deck was Dark Necrofear; that is, loading up the grave with fiends to summon it. If I negged Necrofear, there wouldn't be any point in keeping this a mainly-fiend Skill Drain Deck. I would just turn it into a regular Skill Drain deck. Seeing as I already have a normal Skill Drain deck, I wanted to try something different.

 

That is all.
