T3RA PROWL3R Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Take out that wolf thing and Chaos Archfiend. Dark Mimic is preferable over the resonators due to the free draw it can net you. And if you want to run 2 rabbit, you should really get more targets for it. What is that last Xyz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not need any more targets as recycling. Wolf can spam quickly but yeah mimic would be better to side, I say side because dark resonator is the only turner. Chaos Archfiend is great and something that would not be expected, most monsters that will be played in atk position have high atk but lower def which can help out a lot. Evilswarm Ouroboros. Deck has been updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 >2 Rabbit with only 3 Targets>Tuners for Guide Targets>Alexander to potentially dead draw>Random CylinderDeck looks pretty wonky, TBHWhy not just run full Gem Knights, or something more stable?

UrbanStruggle Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 What even IS the gem-knight engine? Good question summoner monk + gem-knight fusion + any level 4 monster then rabbit + alex + garnet you can use 2 summoner monk for more use.>2 Rabbit with only 3 Targets >Tuners for Guide Targets >Alexander to potentially dead draw >Random Cylinder Deck looks pretty wonky, TBH Why not just run full Gem Knights, or something more stable? 01. It's works well plus the 3 targets will be used a fusion material or banish to keep gem fusion in hand 02. if you do not get tgu summon goblindbegh or photon thrasher for a quick synchro. 03. thins the deck / throws gem-knights in grave for engine or recycling plus this guy works well with photon thrasher and goblinbegh 04. cylinders inflict damage it's not like im going to win by drawing exodia with this deck T_T 05. build it and try it 07. this works pretty well.

UrbanStruggle Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 I don't even. - this shit + a good G-K list, please. maybe i'm just lucky and have not run into dead draws for the time being. Your first post in this tread and just negativity and nothing to you said would be consider proper criticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headmaster Monokuma Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Just so you know, Gem-Knights are NOT an engine. Trying to use them as one makes anything more inconsistent and bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UrbanStruggle Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Just so you know, Gem-Knights are NOT an engine. Trying to use them as one makes anything more inconsistent and bad. One halve of a engine since the rabbit and or garnet is the other halve of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headmaster Monokuma Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 You're an idiot. Gem-Knights are a deck. You cannot run a few Gem-Knight cards and call it an engine, it doesn't work. The deck is very dependent on being able to mesh with itself, not having unrelated cards clogging it. Gem-Knights are not a mixed bag deck, they're straightforward.

It's looks "cloggy" but it's works pretty well. All i'm asking is for you to try it and see. for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headmaster Monokuma Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 We don't have to use a deck to see that it's bad. Gem-Knights are NOT an engine. They are a deck. You have to run supporting Gem-Knights that aren't the Gemini ones. Obsidian, Lazuli, Garnet, and Citrine. Throwing in Garnet and a crappy Gem-Knight does not making an engine.

Turtlegary Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 I must suggest some cards for the deck, Card trader for when you do need a different card, and Gem-knight Crystal, because that is the best way to make use of alexandrite. and Maybe try master diamond.

Gem-knight fusion is a back up but the whole point of the deck is to spam level 4 for rank 4 xyzs, with that said: Card trader would be good to side or suggest what to switch with it. Gem-knight Crystal would be a no go like said earlier level 4 and or rank 4 spam engine deck, using crystal can help as a beater but would throw the whole "rank 4 spam out of whack".

evilfusion Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 There usually comes a time when, after numerous people have commented and said more or less the exact same basic point, that the Deck builder either needs to acknowledge the point that they're bringing up, or better justify their adamant refusal to acknowledge that point. Disagreeing with advice is perfectly fine, some people do have that weird tech they want to keep playing with, or a few strange card choices that they prefer over more accepted cards. However, in those cases, the disagreement should be voiced a particular way, to avoid falling into the trap of outright telling people to shut up when they're trying to explain something. From what I read here, the majority is bringing up the extremely valid point that your Deck lacks synergy with itself and Gem-Knights are not an engine. They're an archetype that have an entire Deck built around the central concept of recycling Gem-Knight Fusion and recycling Fusion Materials to the hand/Field to perform more Fusion Summons. On that front, I fully agree. Your Deck makes no logical sense. You're running 5 Gem-Knights and 2 Gem-Knight Fusion. The Fusion could be used for Summoner Monk, but that's rather wasteful of Deck slots since Fusion lacks a consistent method of recycling it, and with your monster lineup, it's VERY unlikely you'll even have much chance to activate it. Which means you have Fusion in there almost solely as Summoner Monk fodder, and the Gem-Knights themselves are just justification for Fusion as Monk fodder. The argument that people should test a Deck to see how it works is more or less telling people you don't want their opinions unless they play with a Deck they can already see is subpar. It's a waste of their time to take you up on that, when instead you could tell them specific situations where the card choices are superior, or some synergy/common plays that justify them. If you explain why you use certain cards, they can either explain why their ideas are better, or chop down your logic depending on how flimsy it is. If they come back from testing your Deck and say they got owned because they got dead draws constantly, you'd probably still ignore them with the claim that it works fine for you. Waste of time, gets you nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
