Ragnus Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I like this deck. One of my friends runs a Six Samurai Deck, and it's a Pain to defeat with the decks I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raikoh Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I would almost agree' date=' but Scapegoat is synergistic with Creature Swap AND Monster Gate, and stopping up to four attacks for free can really be a life saver. I'd certainly Creature Swap someone an attack mode Goat, wouldn't you? That's just good business. Giant Trunade is a good thing to pack, and if it was going in at all, I'd say over the Smashing Ground and leave Solidarity at one, but I'm not sure it really has a place in the meta right now when you consider a couple rather important things. A'] Backrow likes to be chainable right now. B] If they Synchro Summon or Tribute Summon with a Call of the Haunted-Revived monster, Call of the Haunted stays on the field, inactive, and Giant Trunade would just go back to the hand to be used again, which is a GROSS thought. Ah, I failed to the Pros to Goats. I only thought of the Cons (which was blocking the SS Swarm). Yeah, leave Goats in. Agreed man, Giant Trunade over Smashing. Also, I like GT in Samurais to stop a BTH or TT from destroying my Swarms. Threatening Roar/Waboku (Glads) (or some other chainable traps) would be activated in the battle (especially against Waboku so you don't let GBs tag-out). GT is also a + against Glads to get rid of their BoMs and their Chariots. Yeah, its a - for their CotH but it can also be a + with yours (mostly Swap the SS monster with Call, play GT, and set again while your opponent gets a -1). Right, but Giant Trunade lets them reset all of the Book of Moon and Torrential and Bottomless and whatever else, while Mystical Space Typhoon, which isn't in the deck, could remove that threat permanently. I use Giant Trunade in my Main Deck right now only because the little kids at my locals like to use a lot of cards no one in a real Premier Event situation would use, like "Ordeal of the Traveler", "Begone, Knave!", etc., and they're good things to hit. If I was playing in a sea of GBs and Blackwings, I'd be using MST over it in a heartbeat. I didn't think of MST. Yeah, its better to destroy then return. I would side the Trunade in case of Gadgets or Macros (if anyone plays that deck anymore). I like this deck.

Saiyan Knight Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I haven't seen either of those decks at my locals, nor at any Regionals or in the T16 at Shonen, so I'm not particularly worried about them. I mean, Yaichi is enough against Gadgets, and maybe My Body as a Shield, since it can stop more cards that are played proactively rather than reactively, such as Fissure and Smashing Ground. Kamon is enough of a power hitter against Macro, too. Pops Macro and Fissure as a +1, instead of a -1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I slip GT in there for JIC, but that's just me. @TC: Go for the editing Saiyan did. They're all good edits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Seraphim Posted October 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Has it been more or less confirmed that you're taking this deck to your local tournament on Sunday for testing? If so' date=' I'm highly intrigued to here the results.[/quote'] Well a firnd of mine has my Six Samurai cards right now, so if he shows up tomorrow i'll defenitly be playing and i'm more then happy to post my results (mind you that i'm not that good of a duelist, but then again ... what do i see as "good"). I agree with Sayian Knight with the Solidarity over the Smashing. Keep the BTH. They stop swarming (especially against Blackwings). I would say add a Giant Trunade (for the Swarming of Shiens) and I would recommend taking out Scapegoat for it. Solidarity over Smashing is something i will test out tomorrow (if i can get my deck' date=' if not i think i'll just proxy the whole deck because most of the players there know that i have the cards). As for Scapgoat, i have the same arguments as Saiyan Knight. Yeah, its a - for their CotH but it can also be a + with yours (mostly Swap the SS monster with Call, play GT, and set again while your opponent gets a -1). I'd like that, say call a Yaichi and destroy a S/T then swap it and play Turnade. Very nice, i'll think about it. If I was playing in a sea of GBs and Blackwings' date=' I'd be using MST over it in a heartbeat.[/quote'] Yeah, but the Trunade thing just looks so sweet :p (but i guess playing call on a IdiotFootsoldier then swapping it and just attacking would be as equally sweet :D). He and I have discussed Samurai before' date=' and he's going to report his findings after testing this coming Sunday. Two days.[/quote'] Yess we has :). Ok. I hope he does well with the deck. Thanks i hope he does so to :D. Ohw and just to be clear your saying: - Smashing Ground+ Mystical Space I'd rather have a 2de Solidarity, cause i ran it before and it really helped.

Saiyan Knight Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 If you think that a second Solidarity is what you want to try, then I insist. By all means, venture into the uncharted waters and make yourself a map. However, I'd suggest that you try Mystical Space Typhoon and just examine your options in a LARGE number of games against many opponents, to give yourself an idea of the problem, if any.

cerberus21 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 For a split second, I saw samurais, and thought you meant a Sasuke Samurai deck. I would have loved you long time. But this is a Six Samurai deck. So I anhero. Anyway, ot/ It isn't a terrible build, but generic six would work better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saiyan Knight Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 It isn't a terrible build' date=' but generic six would work better.[/quote'] What makes you think/say that?It's really just an awkward social stigma that's developed over the majority of the players that fall under one of two categories. Those, of course, being the kind of player that really doesn't understand the game from a competitive standpoint, and those that think that only "cookie cutter" or "Meta" decks are capable of thriving in a truly competitive environment, though they never take into account that what is now a "Meta" deck is the result of creativity in the past. That in mind, Six Samurai in a "generic" sense have been used prior regularly by the masses, and have even won a Jump. My build, piloted by one Jonathan Moore, who stole the list from Pojo, though that's a story for another day, I'd think. Because of that stigma, it's a knee-jerk reaction for some to insist or assume that what's been tried and proven is always going to be better than what's to come, which is entirely not the truth.

Dark_Armed_Zombie Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Fortunatly, I don't fit into either of your determined catagories :D Six Sams are awesome [/thread] OT: Maybe just add the second Solid? 41 isn't that bad of a card number...

When you virtually NEED one of three copies of Grandmaster and they can't be searched, 41 is that bad of a card count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Seraphim Posted October 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Hey guys sorry i'm posting at this hour. Couldn't test the deck today because my friend came into the shop pretty late and i still had homework to do, so i just went for the tournament (witch was in the morning). He did drop of the cards later in the evening. He did trade a few cards but i'm only missing like 13 cards of the deck (and there pretty easy to get). So next sunday i'll test the deck (or maybe even thursday). BTW: I played a like chaos monarch budget deck today and came in third =p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Seraphim Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Yeah but if thats the only way, i'm not liking it. So tested the deck today had to take out the proxie Gateways though, i replaced them with 1 Lightning Vortex - 1 Smashing Ground - 1 Mysttical Space. Also my hands where Kamons (because i don't have them ... yet). - Round 1 -Was against a Chaos End Master? (lvl 3 tuner light guy) and some kinda Chaos Sphere thingy, when i said i didn't know it he looked at me like he saw water burning -_-;. - Game 1 -So i drew a Shiens soldier and a creature swap in my starting hand. He won the dice roll and started with a d-draw >>> malicious >>> e-teleport >>> krebons >>> stardust and one more card face down. My turn i summond Shiens soldier and swapped it, he chained call and gave me his malicious -_-;. i was pretty much stuck at that moment so i attacked and got out a Kamon and ended. He pretty much killed me, cause he got out that chaos thing and syncro-ed into a colossal. I couldn't run over it. - Game 2 -The same thing with the creature swap happend a little later in the game, i was holding my own untill then but at that time both him and me only had 2 cards each in hand. Mine where the swap and shiens soldier, his where a call and a choas master with witch he killed my yaichi. - Round 2 -Was against this noob with a exodia deck running on the heart of the underdog. - Game 1 -I easily won with swaping my soldier for a Mad Dogg and then getting out kamon to kill gravity bind and level limit. - Game 2 -I easily won because i started out with a Irou, GM, Shien, Shien. - Round 3 -I was totally murdered here, i played against Blackwing. - Game 1 -Had a pretty decent hand, he had a better one. Swarmed the field with sirroco >>> bora >>> gale and got 2 kalutes because of Whirlwind. - Game 2 -Pretty much the same only this time i had scapegoat and he head 3 kaluts. - Round 4 -Versus Gladiator. - Game 1 -I drew Zanji, GM, Shien and he had a bad hand. - Game 2 -I drew Irou, GM, reasonning >>> Shien and he made a misplay so he scoped.
