Engetsu Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 I took some advice from my previous post and slightly modified my deck. It's A Legendary Ocean themed deck. Not good compared to some other WATER decks, but it works. Monsters (22) Abyss Soldier x2Blizzard Dragon x2 (May remove, not sure)Codarus x2Levia Dragon Daedalus x3Mobius the Frost Monarch x2Mother Grizzly x3Nightmare Penguin x2 Unshaven Angler x2Warrior of Atlantis x3Ocean Dragon Lord - Neo Daedalus Spells (10)A Legendary Ocean x3Moray of Greed x2 (Might add 1 more)Mystical Space TyphoonSalvageSwords of Revealing LightTerraformingWater Hazard Traps (8)Call of the HauntedDark Bribe x2Divine Wrath (Might remove)Forgotten Temple of the Deep x2 (Thinking about adding another...not sure)Mirror ForceSolemn Judgment If there's anyway I can improve on this deck, please tell me. Constructive criticism is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Griffin Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Alright, this isn't that bad. From some of the Decks I've seen around here, I expected worse.The things you want to remove, roughly in order of most removable to least, are probably these: Unshaven AnglerTerraforming (You have 3 Warrior of Atlantis, that's plenty)Divine WrathDark BribeMobiusNightmare Penguin I'd aim to add:Some Deep Sea Diva cards. You can add a Spined Guillman or two to go with them, but they work on there own by just summoning each other.A third Codarus. That +1 effect is sweetA third Forgotten Temple. The effect is alright, but most importantly it works with Codarus.A third MorrayMaybe a Sangan. It's not WATER, but it searcher Codarus and Divas and adds a bit to the monster line-up.Some Spiritual Water Art - Aoi are always nice if you have space left over.

I rather keep Unshaven Angler so I can bring out Levia Dragon Daedalus when The Legendary Ocean isn't present on the field. Plus it works well with Mother Grizzly. However having Deep Sea Diva and Spined Guillman in my deck would be beneficial. Teraforming and Divine Wrath I can easily part with for probably a third Morray of Greed and a Forgotten Temple of the Deep I rather not take out Dark Bribe though. It's useful to have, especially when someone has a face down Solemn Judgment or Divine Wrath in waiting to screw my whole strategy over. Mobius I can part with, for Sangan and a third Codarus. Nightmare Penguin I'm still pondering on. It's effect is pretty decent, but there are better WATER monsters >_< I usually never have space left over in most decks I made, so Spiritual Water Art - Aoi is out of the question, but thanks for the suggestion. One thing though, if I do add a couple Deep Sea Divas into my deck, should I add a WATER Synchro monster of any kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Lightray Daedalus- Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Believe I've been making these DEck for almost 3 Years now...I have tried MANY ways of playing (OTK way, with LSs, with D-heros, Oppresion Style) and I don't like frogs neither....But this time I must admit they are the perfect tribute engine for this kind of deck.... Full water decks do not work as much as you'd like (Except again the frogs...or fishes but they are not full water neither) On the other side WATER as a whole is not a theme....Daedalus is, and even then focusing in Codalus gaves you more consistent decks...since is easier to work on him... I might see among my files other More WATER focused Daedalus Decks if you want to help you in this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The ReBeL Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Daed is like king of water here. I mean that is my fav attribute but if there is a water fix he knows it. He runs the best water here so you either drink it or die by thirst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True that, but some of the cards you mention I do not own, so I can't add them even if I wanted to. Again, very true, but I have Daedalus in my deck mainly to clear the field. Same goes for Neo Daedalus. Codarus (to me) is a substitute card when I can't bring out the other two yet. Once again, thanks, but I'll learn as I go. I just wanted some changes in my deck, not a nearly complete overhaul of it. You did give me some great ideas on other WATER decks I'm building, so thanks (again lol). Daed is like king of water here. I mean that is my fav attribute but if there is a water fix he knows it. He runs the best water here so you either drink it or die by thirst I like the suggestions he gave me, but I'm not gonna be forced to take his advice. I only wanted a few changes in my deck because I was unsure if I needed some of the cards in my deck or not. Plus I don't have some of the cards he mentioned.

Not a problem At all everything can be easily replace with some cheapers cards and the result shall be still good Tell me what other things you got and we can make the best out of only the cards you own.

My card supply is very limited, since I don't buy Yu-Gi-Oh cards very often (They eat up my hard earned money quickly >_<). These are the only cards I could find, and maybe worth mentioning.

-Griffin Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 If you buy online, plenty of places have commons for like, $0.33 a card, probably some places sell them cheaper. $1 (~£0.60) for a playset of a good common is pretty nice value, so you might want to consider that if any commons would fit that you're lacking. I've personally used Troll and Toad in the past, so I can confirm that they give good prices, shipping and deliver just fine, even abroad. Hope that helps for some cards.

At least this is the minimum you can do with this deck and it is decent actually...so... =D BTW....from experience...Neo-Daedalus...at 1 is kinda iffy...is better when it can be used as part of a draw engine so I removed for other cards that will let you get Normal Daedalus out Faster....

Ririkun Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Nice, more water enthusiasts. I've been running a water deck for a long time, got 5 wins and 3 losses in a regional once though I admit i had an opponent who had no idea what they were doing. I'll recommend these changes. Monsters (19)Deep Sea Diva x3Abyss Soldier x2Blizzard Dragon x1 Codarus x2Levia Dragon Daedalus x1Caius the Shadow Monarch x1Mother Grizzly x3Nightmare Penguin x1 Snowman Eater x1Warrior of Atlantis x3Spined Gillman x1 Spells (13)Book of Moon x3A Legendary Ocean x3Moray of Greed x2 Mystical Space TyphoonSalvage x2Swords of Revealing LightWater Hazard Traps 8Bottomless Trap Hole x2Dark Bribe x1Forgotten Temple of the Deep x2 Mirror ForceMind CrushSolemn Judgment This build has more consistency and power. First off, I know Deep Sea Diva doesn't do well in ALO, but you won't always have ALO out, and Deep Sea Diva is a really great card, especially in a water deck. Caius over Mobius because Caius is just a lot better. You don't need to add Mobius just because its WATER. As for spells, 2-3 Salvage is a must if you're running both Moray of Greed and Water Hazard so you can recycle your water and re-use everything again, which is awesome :) Finally traps, 2 bottomless is a staple and stops everything. Mind crush is also great if you know what your opponent has. You don't have to follow this exactly, but i really reccomend you use salvage and deep sea diva.
