CBs are good vs Dark Hole
CBs are better without Storm
CBs can easily counter BRD, now the main way to clear their backrow, with Veiler/Compulse/Book
CBs ought to be actually good this format.

While I'd love extra CyDra/Veilers/Rare Value, they don't seem to be worth negging anything for ._.

Um... Cobalt? Why?
[/quote]

Because I preferred it to Turtle and Amethyst and 3 Carbuncle seemed cloggy. It's only there as 1 more card to fill up the s/t zone for Ruins and Abundance.

Because He's Sexy
Oh but Why no love for The Other Crystal Beasts?I think That you should have a rainbow Dragon Sprinkled Somewhere on there lol :D (this is a serious suggestion I use CB's as a Main)

No. If your Crystal Beasts use Rainbow Dragon, you're using the wrong win condition.

You make it sound Like its an enormous chore to summon Rainbow Dragon. D:
He's not nececerily my win condition but I prefer him any day over Crystal abundance. Hes not as risky as Abundance as Abundance is weak to many counter traps That Cant be countered by The field (since you just rid yourself of all your crystals) but with rainbow, you can keep your crystals and use any monsters you have to protect him from Torrentials and stuff.

Just wondering, but has Duality every messed you up? I feel running three might be a bit much considering it's "cost" (Yes, I understand it shouldn't matter if you play the card right, but sometimes waiting a turn to do something can make you lose the game)

Maybe -1 Duality +1 Value?

Then you could even go as far as to neg the Cobalt for another Veiler/CyDra?

rainbow isn't the way to go in a build like this... Hamon seems a better choice for a quick stall to bring out abundance. i see the availability to run 2 Hamon in place of the 2 CyDra.

Terraform seems unneeded with ruins at 3, plus you shouldn't hardly have to run ruins with hamon down. and Is Book "BoM"?... you could be able to neg one book and the terraform for 2 Blessings. It helps in the Hamon Stall for blessings and Abundance.

Might work better, might not. You could always test it and see if it works out better

Cydra >>> Hamon. Ruins >>> Hamon. Hamon is terrible, stop recommendeding Hamon. Blessings is terrible and Book is needed to prevent BRDs. Terra is good since Caius/other ways to remove is still common so 2 Ruins in hand isn't actually as dead as it looks.

This. Hamon beasts are horrid. The best CB build is Abundance OTK, the other gimmicks are just that: Gimmicks.

Eh, adding Value means I need more Cobalt, not less, as does negging Duality. Value needs Cobalt food and Duality stops no-Crystal hands. 3 Duality has only ever been a problem when one picked up another, which feels bad, but otherwise they've been good as-is.
