Ogre's 8 Scale + Galilei is optimal, but more often than not you'll get the same results from Ogre + Leonidas Deck generates a lot of advantage just by playing. It always has some form of throwaway advantage at hand, and I'm actually considering upping PWWB for it. Galilei is a tech because I can search it off of odd-eyes and it can let me pseudo-Wind-Up Rabbit my cards. Scale 1 doesn't hurt it, either. The deck has lots of power plays that can fill a board in a turn. +2ing in a turn without any form of gimmick help isn't uncommon, either, and One for One just makes it more common. I actually have yet to use either nuke yet. Funny. Can't test 100% yet because it's still a bit buggy, (Like the pendulum effs of Ogre and Cerb, Lilith getting from the ED when SS'd, and stuff that requires you not to cheat even when the game lets you), so idk how good Cerb and Ogre actually are. However, after I test it once it's fixed, I may swap Lilith and Cerb's numbers. Then there's night howling. It's actually a vanilla a good amount of tme... but a searchable tuner that isn't totally vanilla is just that. And it's so worth it, especially when you can res it with the bosses. EDIT: August 16, 2014 Covenant with the Dark Witch makes this a powerful Pendulum.dek in addition to its versatility. I might actually try a straight-up Pendulum.dek build... But that feels wrong beacuse it makes Kepler a little more vulnerable/less versatile and Lilith becomes a bit less useful. The deck would also Kepler can give you a lot of "useless" advantage in the forms of excess Covenants, Lilith can recur DDs from the ED/Grave, Cerberus can recur CwtIG and CwtSK, Temujin can recur any Covenant on death, Caesar floats into a Covenant on death, and CwtDW makes Galilei more versatile. All of this helps CwtDW be live almost always, and allows you to do it without costing you anything of true worth, while slowly and efficiently picking off the opp. It gives you a way to filter and to stretch every bit of advantage you have to the max it can be used. Once you set a Leonidas + Ogre, you're pretty much set up for game. Ogre is still the best pendulum spell in the deck, with Leonidas being second. I really wish there was another 2 or 3 scale that wasn't Leo or Galilei =x Odd-Eyes is a real bro. He helps you make Rank 4s, helps you setup/maintain setup, and is all around just a great card. That 2x damage does, in fact, win games. I use Temujin/Alex a lot less now. They're not bad, but between Dolls and CwtDW, I don't need to make them as much, and the pure Pendulum setup and straight advantage gain/thinning with Keplers seems more worth it. Also, there's 2 new traps I'm using; Vanity's Emptiness and Threatening Roar. Let's cover Vanity's; Not only is it a real card again, but this deck doesn't care. Once it sets Lilith and/or gets almost any beater on the board, it just doesn't care that it's up, and can proceed to advantage out the butt while neither of you make plays under it. CwtDW can remove it at will, and so can Ogre/other Tribute summon depending on situation. It makes you less able to use your backrow, but that's why you only use them when you MUST. It can shut opponents out completely and allow you to turtle up and just amass advantage to kill them with. All of your best cards, bar Lilith and Night Howling, go to the ED on death, and Lilith isn't likely to die under Vanity's. Now T-Roar... this deck is extremely vulnerable to chip damage if it doesn't manage to setup early. It's weak to poking in general, as well, due to the nature of its Covenants. Not to mention Kepler's got a giant "hit my weak point for massive damage" on its head, and Odd-Eyes is relevant in /2/ different decks (though Qliphs would have to Tribute Summon it... that's not bad for a 5K swing). It helps against Qliphorts and Dolls as well, because of Construct and such in dolls and... well... Qliphorts being Qliphorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Safe to say DDs lived up to how they were portrayed in the anime, huh?And if your hand is always loaded with cards, I'd honestly consider going with that 3 Phoenix Wing idea you mentioned, if only because it adds more disruption on that sort of level.

~Faytl~ Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Night Howling can summon back Kepler for a search, maybe you could add in a Balmung to take advantage of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted August 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Night Howling can summon back Kepler for a search, maybe you could add in a Balmung to take advantage of that? Where do I have space for that? Don't really think Kepler's in the grave enough for that to be relevant, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hey Black, out of curiosity, has Proud Ogre ever been a dead card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premier Alexander Romanov Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Why all the Rank 6s and 7s? Why 3 Temujin, but only 2 Swamp Kings, and 1 Alex and 1 Caesar? And aren't the Sages dangerous to use as Pendulums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Swamo King is continuous, and dead in multiples. Not to mention searchable. I'd assume Alex and Caesar's number was due to space issues. Rank 6 and 7 are nice option, and you'll summon them often enough. Kepler is a Stratos, while Galilei's the only viable low scale aside from Leonidas. Hopefully that answers your question, though I believe Black could answer it better.

I'm glad you could answer that instead of Josh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that answers your question, though I believe Black could answer it better. You overed most of it, but there is a little more. Galilei is a protection card that's searchable off of Odd-eyes. It bounces back Keplers/Bottomless endangered monsters/Covenants, and can be a scale when needed. For example, have a badly edited video made in about 10 minutes by a total amateur! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgJRVaPy_8A the editing is actually just awful but i'm tired and it's easier than a long ass post because i had the replay saved also requires knowledge of what the cards do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
