morfowt Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 I've actually made quite a few decks, but most of them have about 2 or 3 custom cards and even more anime-only cards (they were just made for fun). I do have a few decks that are all real cards though. My favorite so far is my Stall Deck (I also have a Synchro Deck that I'm fond of, but that has some OCG cards). 20 Monsters2x Destiny Hero - Defender1x Marshmallon3x Yado Karu2x Grave Protector2x Marauding Captain2x Des Feral Imp2x Dark Resonator1x Golden Ladybug2x Guardian Sphinx1x Exxod, Master of the Guard2x Flamvell Guard 11 Spells2x Final Countdown2x Recycle1x Spell Absorption2x The Dark Door2x Gold Sarcophagus2x Heart of Clear Water 9 Traps2x Solemn Wishes2x Draining Shield1x Gravity Bind2x Scrap-Iron Scarecrow2x Dark Bribe Extra Deck2x Stardust Dragon Side Deck2x Energy-Absorbing Monolith2x Prime Material Dragon2x Hanewata2x Krebons2x Depth Amulet2x Exiled Force2x D.D. Warrior Lady1x Light-Imprisoning Mirror Basic idea is to stall the opponent's attacks with mainly stardust, scrap-iron scarecrow, and the dark door. as well as other cards like draining shield just in case. Solemn Wishes and others keep my Life Points up which also help with stalling, and to make sure I have enough Life Points to activate Final Countdown. Cards like Yado Karu replenish my deck while I either wait for my opponent to deck out, or to draw final countdown/gold sarcophagus. Now, in reality, it might be pretty weak but I wouldn't know. I've never actually faced a tournament-level deck. I've only played with my friends. Ignore the above for now. I assure you, i've made plenty of changes to that deck. now, there's no swarm deck under deck types on yugioh wikia, so I didn't really know any good swarming cards. so this deck would probably be a VERY bad deck. the main card is the creator, but if you know a better card for swarming, by all means suggest it. I would like to request that any suggestions you make to this deck not be type-specific, attribute-specific, nor archetype-specific (so no six samurai deck, please). 20 Monsters2 The Creator3 The Creator Incarnate2 Herald of Creation1 Night Assailant2 Exiled Force2 Kaiser Sea Horse2 Kuraz the Light Monarch3 Zero Gardna1 Super Conductor Tyranno2 Honest 12 Spells1 Card Trader2 Gold Sarcophagus2 Trade-In2 Soul Exchange2 Monster Reincarnation2 Foolish Burial1 Monster Gate 8 Traps1 Mirror Force2 Ultimate Offering3 Covering Fire2 Beckoning Light Rate, Review, Comment, Criticize, Contribute, Whatever.

morfowt Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 ... you say that like it's a huge problem... you only need to tribute 1 sphinx for exxod, don't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.dek Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 ya but u only have 2 cards in ur deck that u can tribute to summon it so it might end up being kind of difficult to summon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfowt Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 well to be honest, I only put it because it has 4000 DEF. It's nice to have but it's not that crucial to my overall strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.dek Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 one big question i have is why isnt there a marshmallon or a spirit reaperanother big question is why run draining shield when u could run threatening roar or waboku? both can not only be activated when ur opponent attacks, but also when the opponent activates heavy storm or MST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yin Absol Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 May I suggest thunder of ruler, nightmare steelcage, or you could make it volcanic/flamvell based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfowt Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 lightning vortex is offensive, not defensive. same with bottomless and fire princess. I made my stall deck completely for defensive purpose. because not only do I need to stall, I need to gain life points, and draining shield is better for that. plus I don't like cards taht only stall for 1 turn. draining shield is just an exception because I'd gain life points thunder of ruler and nightmare steelcage are in the same boat as threatening roar and waboku. volcanic and flamvell are burn archetypes, not stall archetypes. Maybe if I was making a stall/burn deck, but this one I just made for a stall/final countdown specifically. I'm sorry I'm being so picky, but I prefer giving my deck "character" before giving it effectiveness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yin Absol Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 in that case, metal reflect slime.... maybe a level eater too. Also you could run black garden to slow down your opponent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnpsy Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Before I say anything, allow me to clarify one detail: Is the focus here on Final Countdown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfowt Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 huh, hadn't thought of trap monsters... which do you think is better for stalling? metal reflect slime or cyber shadow gardna? hmm... level eater's only stalling ability seems to special summoning itself, in which there are better cards. it's synchro summoning help is useless because I don't have a level 8 tuner monster and only level 8 synchro monsters field spell cards aren't the best cards in the world because in addition to being able to be destroyed by cards like heavy storm, they're also destroyed when another field spell card is played. and in any case, clock tower prison would be a better staller. I could put that in, but I can't decide which to take out... Before I say anything' date=' allow me to clarify one detail: Is the focus here on Final Countdown?[/quote']hmm... not exactly. stalling is the main focus, but of course stalling never wins the duel by itself. it always has to be coupled with something. that something else in this case, is final countdown. so yeah, final countdown is a focus, but the bigger focus is stalling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.dek Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 bottomless is actually stall. it stalls ur opponent from beating you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfowt Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 it stalls by removing the opponents monster from the field. that would be offensive in my book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burnpsy Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 seeing as this is a Final Countdown variant of stall, a build similar to this would probably work out better: Final Countdown (40) Monsters (10) 3x Battle Fader1x Morphing Jar3x Winged Kuriboh3x Zero Gardna Spells (8) 3x Book of Eclipse3x 1x Heavy Storm1x Swords of Revealing Light Traps (22) 3x Curse of Anubis3x Frozen Soul1x Gravity Bind1x Mirror Force3x Negate Attack1x Solemn Judgment3x Threatening Roar3x Thunder of Ruler1x Torrential Tribute3x Waboku Side Deck (15) 2x Breaker the Magical Warrior3x Double Snare3x Dust Tornado1x Mystical Space Typhoon3x Prohibition3x Twister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfowt Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 um... I've already mentioned I don't really like using offensive cards like mirror force or torriential tribute in a stall deck. seems to remove the point of stalling. why not just use them to remove your opponents cards and attack them instead of stalling?I also don't like one-time-stalls unless they have an added effect like draining shield does. It just seems like I have to put more copies in so I can keep stalling. Curse of anubis seems helpful because it also switches any attack position monsters I have to defense, but wouldn't No Entry!! be better because that also switches normal monsters' positions?
