Hyperduck Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 The extra deck is a little overpowered considering that the effects of banishing monsters from the graveyard to inflict or gain 1000 LP are not limited to once per turn, allowing easy OTK or just ridiculous burn and LP gains. also, considering that the synchro materials go to the grave so you may get at least 2 sets of the effect off after synchro summoning, also the Chimp give you a draw when you banish them, furthering the strength. Adding on to it all, it hhas ridiculous search power too, the search power is probably fine, it's just that added on to what it already has to offer makes it a slight bit farfetched. This is just my opinion, also the fact that this deck (this is also a good thing) flows and links well to churn out synchros in nearly every situation, would make it, if it were in real life, so solid that it would be "metal" without the "L".

Peridank Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 So... Dragon and Sphinx you think are over the top? I thought it was balanced seeing how it would be reckless to remove all monsters from grave... but I can see your point... once I add the spells and traps... there could be issues. Making adjustments now. EDIT: Changed to twice per turn to keep usefulness but not go over the top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyperduck Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I still think, twice per turn is strong. considering if you get out the level 12, you can then bring out 4 monsters synchro into 2 dragons or 2 sphinx or 1 each and wreck the house. Also, if you use Soul Absorption like I do, you can have 3 absorptions up, plus the gain 1000, to gain 5000 life points in one turn, even if you run 2 soul's, you gain 4000, or just do 2000 and gain 2000. It's still a ridiculous effect, along with the spells, you can banish easily, and get more ammunition from deck to grave, and then also, get more ammunition for a pot of greed draw. It's still a good flowing deck. But the extra deck needs toning down. (Again, it's just my opinion and nothing else, you can keep it like this and that, but just heed, If it ends up too strong it'll get moved to casual) I'm not forcing you to change it, do whatever you want with your deck, because thats the beauty of it, it's YOURS. I'm just giving some criticism because other people on the forums can't be bothered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peridank Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I wasn't looking for a OP deck so this info helps alot. Do you think the Rex pop should be changed to say Twice per turn? Also... after test running... you are right. The burn is too much... the lp gain isn't as used as much so idk. (Mainly cuz it's not needed) Making changes now... EDIT: Done... Sphinx and Dragon have a hard OTP clause. Also another tech card from irl added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperduck Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Once per turn is much better. And the LP gain can still be used, as I said, if you were to run Soul Absorption and such. But OTP is good. For Rex: Twice per turn would be a little strong considering the deck has the ability to easily put Shadow Runners in the Graveyard unless you have restrictions like, "Destroy 1 Face-up card", "Destroy 1 Face-Down Card" or "Destroy 1 Monster (or Spell/Trap) Card" OTP is good for no limit, destroy any card (Especially if the Synchro is only Level 6), but with restriction to the destruction parameters, TPT is good too. But always remember, it is incredibly easy to bring out Level 6 Synchros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peridank Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Ok... EDIT: Rex given a OPT clause Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperduck Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Sorry for being so critical and stuff. I just really enjoy stuff like this. Also, to be honest, no one else is bothering to give you criticism. Again, sorry, it seems like I'm hammering you with requirements. You don't have to go a long with everything I say.

Peridank Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 No I really appreciate it... like you said. Not many people CnC cards especially the same cards again and again to get them right. Its good that you are critical. When I post a card(s) and get no CnC I'm left to wonder: A. Are they boring B. Are they OP C. Are they stupid etc. Ty again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
