Not-so-Radiant Arin Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 My opening hand: Dust Tornado, Mirror Meditation, Shadow, Mirror Force, and Chain. Opponent's opening hand: Mist Valley Falcon, Dragunity Javelin, Armed Dragon LV 7, Luster Dragon (the Level 6 one), and Dragunity Miltium. I won the RPS, so I get to go first. Turn 1: I draw Duality, play it, and I get Manju, Noelia, and Eater. I pick Noelia. Summon it. I end up sending Abyss, Ogre, Augus, and Eater to grave, while shuffling back in My Body as a Shield. I dump Shadow and grab Ceremonial Mirror. I lay down MF, Dust, and Meditation. Turn End. Turn 2: Opponent draws Dragunity Phalanx. He summons Mist Valley Falcon. Goes to End Phase. At this point, I activate Meditation, getting back Augus and Ogre. Turn End. Turn 3: Draw into Salvage. I play Ceremonial Mirror by Tributing Noelia (from field) and Chain (from hand). Use its effect, tossing out Augus and bouncing Falcon back. I play Ceremonial Mirror from Grave, giving back my Augus. I play Salvage, getting back Shadow and Abyss. Dump Shadow again, get Ceremonial Mirror. I Normal Summon Abyss and grab Chain. Play into Ceremonial Mirror by Tributing Abyss (from field) and Chain (from hand) for Augus. I recycle Duality, Meditation, Noelia, Shadow, and Salvage. Opponent ragequits. Discuss Gishkis and their -4 shenanigans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shizuku Oikawa Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I go first: Dump Shadow, added Soul Mirror, I used Soul Mirror, paid 3000, Summoned Gustkrake, return a Glad Beast, set Erial and Decree. Opponent Summons Glad Beast, sets 3 traps, I chain Decree. Next turn, Flip Erial, search Beast, Summoned Beast, Summoned Shadow, made Shock Ruler, declared Monsters, and ran over all of his monsters to game.

NumberCruncher Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 What sort of wacked up Gishki decks are you two running? Ritual Gishki decks like Dante seems to be suggesting don't run Noelia or Eater, and very rarely play Manju, and Xyz oriented decks like Chiyaha seems to recommend don't run Erial. I've played all three varieties of Gishki that have come about. Synchro Gishki was the most fun, but Fishborg's banning ruined that. Xyz Gishki are good, but not reliable. Ritual Gishki has improved dramatically with Levianima, but still need that extra oomph to them to make it playable, namely a generic Gishki searcher that's better than Abyss. Chain is close, but not quite on the money. You want Shadow and Vision to be pulling the grunt of the load when it comes to Searching the deck for Ritual stuff. Norelia goes completely in the wrong direction, really only serving to dump Ceremonial Mirrors for recycling much later in the game. Erial would have been what we wanted, but she's too slow for her to be of any service. Avance was nearly what we were looking for, as she is at least a tiny bit more reliable than Erial, but she, like Erial, is too slow. Shark is the only really valid searcher, and while he is nice, he takes skill to use correctly, and can often lead to game losses. All in all, Gishki's are great, just not truly competitive yet. They would need a searcher a la Shark to gain that last little boost they need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Hand: 1 Gustkrake, 2 Shadow, 1 Ceremonial Mirror and 1 Prep of Rites. Draw into Salvage. Summon Gustkrake with Shadow as cost. Play Rites to add another Gustkrake and Mirror. Summon Gustkrake using the Gustkrake on field. Ceremonial Mirror to deck and add Gustkrake. Discard Shadow to add Mirror. Summon Gustkrake using the other Gustkrake. Add Gustkrake to hand with Mirror. Salvage the 2 Shadows. Discard 1 to get Mirror. Use Gustkrake for the other Gustkrake. Mirror Shenanigans again. Discard Shadow for Soul Mirror. Summon the other Gustkrake using 3000 Life Points. Your opponent starts off with no cards in hand. ....Best play ever.

Bringerofcake Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 That's because [s]I[/s] [s]Darkplant[/s] people started using them and everyone realized that they're fun as hell with the DT Xyz. And Avance just looks so damn cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonk Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Avance is pretty much the Lavalval Chain of Gishkis (can't say Chain alone because Gishkis already have one). Gishkis are my 2nd favorite Archtype. So many ways to play with your opponent's hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Gishkis are highly combo-orientated. If you read my combo, then you'd see that you can return all cards in your opponent's hand to their Deck, [i]on the first turn[/i] and get out 2 2400 beaters. They also have amazing recycling capabilities that allow you to re-use Rituals, so catches your opponent off-guard many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
