CinnamonStar Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I've just been wondering whether the Ice Barrier archetype was considered any good. I rarely hear people talk about it, but the concept sounds nice.=o Discuss Ice Barrier cards and whether there's a way to make them useful.

newhat Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Prior is good for getting out Gantala. Dewloren is good. Brionac is good. Raiho has an awesome anti-Meta effect. The rest...Tuners and filler, mostly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormented Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I've never fully understood Ice Barriers, I've seen a couple of people ask for Ice-Barrier builds and I'm kind of confused as to why they would want to play them, as I kind of have no understanding of them, plus i'm too lazy to put together a build and try it out :L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, without Strategist the combos with Gantala wouldn't be plausible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Crouton Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I made an Ice Barrier deck with Prior, Dewdark, Cryomancer, and Wetlands. It was pretty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 You have to learn how to play them first, but once you get the basic concept, it's fine. Basically dumping Priors with Swap Frogs, reviving a small selection of techs with Gantala and getting ahead on field advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And by field advantage, I was just assuming you meant spamming the infamous Ince Barrier Synchro monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] That's basically Secret Guards of the Ice Barrier and Raiho which, in total combined, you should really run at no more than 2. But, yeah, true they have a lot of random stuff to save themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
