Phoenix Rising

[Red_X]

 

This deck revolves around FIRE winged beast monsters that have different effects upon being normal summoned or special summoned.  I realize Apocalypse might be a ittle overpowered, but I wanted some form of main deck boss monster to be in the deck to get around anti-special summon cards and Nekroz of Unicore. Planning to add an extra deck monster(s) and spell/trap support, plus possibly some more main deck monster.  The main thing is that I need ideas.  Thanks  in advance.  P.S.  This is my first time using this, so If I did something wrong please tell me tactfully.

I like the idea of a phoenix deck. However, if it was with phoenix I would go more with special summonings. For example, I would use the egg as the lead monster to create a chain of special summons. For example:
The egg: "When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard you can special summon 1 "Phoenix Inferno" from your hand, deck or graveyard to the field."

The Inferno: "When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard you can special summon 1 "Phoenix Apocalypse" from your hand, Deck or Graveyard to the field."

The apocalypse:  "When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard you can special summon 1 "Phoenix Ashes" from your hand, Deck or Graveyard to the field."

The ashes:  "When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard you can special summon 1 "Phoenix Egg" from your hand, Deck or Graveyard to the field."

These effect can be put as the main effect and then use another effect for each summoning but simple ones. For me, this line of effect would symbolise the life cycle of the Phoenix bird and would make for an amazing archetype because even if you send your monsters to the graveyard you can still summon them back. So you can use more spell support cards to make your deck strong.

 

To enlarge the life cycle you could include a Phoenix Chick after the egg and a rainbow phoenix before the ashes as the level 7-8 monster of your archetype.

 

Also, for me, the levels would be:

4 for egg ATK 0/DEF2000

3 for chick ATK 1200/DEF 400 (plus a nice effect to attack maybe the opponent directly)

4 for Inferno ATK 1800/DEF 1600

6 for apocalypse ATK 2400/DEF 2000

8 for rainbow or something ATK 3000/DEF 2600 (plus an effect for further increase in power or defense against card effects)

1 for ashes ATK 0/ DEF 0 (plus cannot be destroyed by battle. During each standby phase inflicts damage 200 Life Points or something)

 

This is only a quick thinking. I can help you more with this if you like my ideas. But since we talk about Phoenix I believe you need a deck where the monsters have ways of coming back again and again just like the mythology behind the bird.

I considered doing something where they revive themselves whenever they were destroyed, but I thought that was a bit too close to the flaming chicken known as Garunix.  I like the idea of rainbow whatever for a boss monster, though I may make that into a rank 4 monster, since I kind of wanted them to have extra deck access by all being level 4.  I think I also will add chick, though I think I'm going to give it a discard oriented ability, since attacking directly can't really be tied to summons.  Thank you for the input.  Also, about the more special summons, I'm going to add spell/trap support to help augment that.

bumb for the heck of it

Just so you know, the bump rule extends to 2 weeks after the last one; you're allowed to do it up to 2 months PROVIDED you made some changes. 

From this, doesn't appear you have made any. 

 

I'll leave it open this time, but keep that in mind if you decide to bump past the 2 week threshold, make sure you actually add something or make changes.
