Blake Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 idgi Though I need to find my FMR Harpie's Pet Dragon later. Used copies can go for 55 bucks on ebay, and I think mine's in Near Mint/Mint . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hounds Of Anubis Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 People overrate the usefulness of one card, it seems. And seriously, people call Inzektors bland design but they like this? What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synchronized Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 ^ Black, I pulled a Harpie's Pet Dragon out of Retro Pack 02 the other day and sold it for $70 on eBay the same day, lmfao. If they don't make this a Secret I'll be 100% surprised. Even though the Deck is over-hyped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mido9 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I dont see what's wrong with making either big eye or a rank 4 on a -1. Maybe the problem there is plover or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Tigerwolf Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 By itself, this makes Harpies a pretty decent Xyzs Deck. It's an archtype Summoner Monk...thank god Hysteric Sign is called Hysteric Sign...imagine it being called Harpie Sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like the same thing as Geargias, in the sense that they took some random 1-off card, and then included more cards that made it playable.

[/quote] I assume you mean "potential"? If not, I doubt that highly. It's just an inconsistent deck that plays 2 good cards. It can play the grindy-ness of Rescue Rabbit, with all the weaknesses and not much of the reward. Sure, has its merits, and can make some pretty good plays and any half-decent pilot should be fine with it, but when you consider the fact that also drawing the Dragon means a skipped draw phase, problems occur.

[/quote] Drawing Dragon is just fodder for Channeler/Party Drawing anything like Sign + a Harpie, or just Channeler will put you in a great position for the rest of the game It's not affected by any continuous Spell/Trap like Poisonous Winds, Macro etc because of Hunting Ground Hysteric Party is a game winner It had great type support cards like Icarus Attack It can play Gozen Match I think it could be.

The Hounds Of Anubis Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 So, a lot of worse 2-card combos than Wind-Ups. Less resiliency than DWs. Not as well-placed against meta decks as Heroes. Not as explosive as Merlanteans. I'm just listing other decks that rely on 2-card interactions, of course. I won't believe this deck is remotely tier 1 until I see some results tbh, it just seems overhyped and underwhelming. And Party hardly seems like an argument, it needs so much prior setup to be at all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love of Ghibli Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Harpies are now placed to be a good undermeta fun deck (most likely only winning random locals) but it definitely isn't a tier 1 deck. Theirs just no consistency. No matter what your build really looks like you still end up with some pretty aweful potential dead draws. Hunting Ground, Egotist (yeah its a dead draw at times), Dragon Channeller just does a good job of turning potential dead draws into something worthwhile. At the same time she has to be on the field for that to be useful so when you don't have her out you just sit still in dead hand city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synchronized Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 [quote name='Professor Kokonoe' timestamp='1357575826' post='6114172'] They won't. They'll make Hysterical Sign secret [/quote] I'd take that over Channeler, but you know that means Channeler is going to be a Super. I expect they'll get serious Prophecy syndrome. That being said, Chris, I think you make the most valid arguments and almost echo my thoughts; they're way too hyped right now. The only thing is, I genuinely believe Konami will make a broken TCG exclusive to capitalize on the hype and really get people sold on the Deck. I'm betting on a Structure Deck, too, with reprints of Hysteric Party (maybe even as a foil) and Harpie's Pet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bringerofcake Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 The annoying thing about her is that if you summon Baby Pet Dragon, she still goes 7, which makes Baby Pet a lot harder to run in the deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Tigerwolf Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Summoner Monk loves the free Egotist Food. And so does Barrier Statue of the Stormwinds along with Icarus Attack, Swallow's Nest and Kujakujaku. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And so does Barrier Statue of the Stormwinds along with Icarus Attack, Swallow's Nest and Kujakujaku. [/quote] ... That sounds absolutely f***ing awful. First off, I'd rather dump Sign itself with Monk, because rulings on sign are unclear, due to a unique wording, so it's better safe than sorry. Barrier Statue is just awful here, and in general. Why would you ever run such a cloggy, easy to kill card that can backfire when you go to Xyz? Icarus Attack and Swallow's Nest aren't bad, but why would you run 2-3x Kujakujaku with only each other as the targets for Nest, when they in absolutely no way aid your win condition while on the field? I mean, they search Channeler and Queen, but that's not worth wasting space on 3 of them for situational tributes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
