Just Crouton Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Set Meanae. Damage, search Cliff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Organized Chaos Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Obviously the main problem is the fact their weak but there are cards around that. Not exactly good cards but there are cards for a dedicated deck. Another problem is that Don Zaloog (Probably the best one) isn't actually part of the archetype so he can't be searched by Meanae. And the fact that most of their effects are useless in this Meta (the milling effects are too small to work, most of the Spells and Traps that Cliff can destroy are usually already activated by the time he's on the field or just pointless, Chick's deck sorting effect is bad, etc) doesn't help. But besides that they can work in a dedicated deck. Meanae is a solid searcher/recycler. Cliff can get rid of pesky traps such as Bottomless Trap Hole (which funnily enough, most of the members can avoid due to their weakness). Don is pretty good if you can do damage and is quite good in Black Garden.dek. I'm not sure if Gorg or Chick are used but they look bad. The support is also pretty situational. But again, they're pretty good in fun decks and are a pretty good cool archtype. Also, does Cliff have breasts or are my eyes just bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted August 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Tech toy (though things like Shrink and Lance usually sound better): [img]http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120616113827/yugioh/images/thumb/7/71/InfectedMail-BP01-EN-C-1E.png/300px-InfectedMail-BP01-EN-C-1E.png[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSektor Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Oh boy, my WC06 dark scorpions deck. Looks like it was a cool undermeta back then. I hope that Konami revives them somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 They're better off being teched into other decks... I mean Don Zaloog is, the rest are meh. If only their support wasn't the definition of situational, they could probably play a control game much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas★Zero Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Oh and don't forgot about this card [url="http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb58378/yugioh/images/0/03/DarkScorpionBurglars-GLD5-EN-C-LE.jpg"][img]http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120612103634/yugioh/images/thumb/0/03/DarkScorpionBurglars-GLD5-EN-C-LE.jpg/300px-DarkScorpionBurglars-GLD5-EN-C-LE.jpg[/img][/url] Though its not that strong it atleast adds that little bulk for the archtype, plus possible one of those good targets for infected mail. Could even make Dark Scorpions into a Dark Warrior XYZ/Synchro variant type of deck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
