A hypothetical change to decksize


Recommended Posts

Perhaps this would be in another format, maybe not. What if:

Minimum Main Deck size = 50

Maximum Extra Deck size = 20

I think it would be an interesting way to play, seeing as the extra deck is just too small to accomodate Omni-HERO Gem-Knight Synchro Xyz.

Extra Deck change is just stupid.

15 is good, mainly because it promotes prioritising what you need the most. If you have those extra slots in the Extra Deck, you have so much choice that it's unhealthy for the game. It makes it way too easy.

And I really wouldn't like to play with a 50 card deck, except in MonsterMash. Combo decks shouldn't really be crippled. They are the weakest of the five types of deck (Control, Swarm, Combo, Disrupt, Toolbox/Miscellaneous), and require way too much luck to be good anyway. If you can make combo decks consistent, kudos.

Because people want to have a social life off the computer.

Eh, I wouldn't really count buying pieces of cardboard as a social life.

Also, I'm still super iffy on the Extra Deck.

the extra deck size is being used as a regulatory tool for all the game changing power konami has crammed into it. but at the same time - it kills the entire HERO archetype - which konami invested an entire generation of the game into -

Synchros are obviously the problem here - New Rule

The extra deck may contain 15 Synchro Monsters.

Unlimited Xyz
Unlimited Fusion

and something besides HERO beat might actually top - it would push LC2 off the shelves konami!!! but this will never happen. I could see the extra becoming SMALLER if anything. I say it's at 15 to stay. I personally thought they were looking for more space when they said extra deck monsters could go in the side and that it was a sign we may get a boost to the extra deck size.

but it's a year later and no boost. it's just not going to happen. it would be like me capitalizing the first word of my sentences. not going to happen.

WTF is a Disrupt Deck to you?
I only considered 3 types of Strategys in TCGs in General and those are Control, Aggro and Combo...Combo is not the weakest one...all OTK/FTK are Combo in essence...

venser was that directed to me? If so - I have no idea - I read Hoey's recent article about Dark World and saw what he was saying about Disrupt decks but other than that this is a new concept to me.

Please tell me more.

It was actually on Cursed Comment of the 5 type of Decks
Sorry it was confusing...XD I dropped a Quote to make it more clear

Even then if Disrupt Deck are what I think they are they don't count into the main categories....they like toolbox are mainly hybrids of the others

So what would you classify Rock Stun as? Seems more like a disrupt than control tbh.

Control is not only gaining advantage...O_o
Control is to "control" the gamestate be it gaining some card advantage which is needed to have more answers to counter your opponents moves or by going to a serie of trades that allows you mantain a higher position in the game state....
Disrupt is a Subclass or subfunction of Control Decks...rather than a proper class

What happen is that you are seeing control only as a fraction of all it does...
Rock Stun is clearly a Control Deck...it controls the field and while it doesn't generate high amounts of advantages...it doesn't need them...Becuase in the control sence...the exchanges are more benefical to the Control Player than to the other...and in that sence...You get some Virtual Advantage...which promply leads to the victory...be it becuase of the Game is finished by a Big Boss monster or by constantly poking the opponent with your smallers ones...
