Spinny Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 I.e castel, exciton, 101. Discuss a good toolbox this format! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Castel and Exciton are probably the two that should be played if nothing else in a deck that doesn't rank 4 terribly often, unless it can benefit greatly from Emeral/Lavalval Chain. Ragnazero, Cowboy, Giant Hand and that 2450 guy (my mind's just blanked as to what its name is) are also good picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also seen that dude that can banish things from grave and then equip onto something, he is pretty good for decks that xyz a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest Fire Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 1) are we supposed to limit ourselves to things that would be put in the same ED?2) do we have to give reasons?3) doesn't really depend on what you're playing what's good to have in you ED? or are we talkin' stuff that's generally good wherever?

You can just talk about how good it is to run different things in different decks if you want, or you could be more general, it is up to you, I.e Nyarla used to be good in Nekroz, is it anymore? Please give reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihop Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Rhapsody? It's good against Nekroz so it's probably worth a mention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest Fire Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Rhap is also okay against chaos cause he can banish the stuff they want to before they get to. (i did that in one duel against lightsworn chaos. hilarious.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
- Minimania - Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 It's a stretch, but if you're running absolutely no Extra Deck or are just on a budget, Heartlandraco can come in handy sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zauls Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 OP mentioned 101, but 101 is definitely not a staple. It should only be run in decks that have a lot of Extra Deck room. If your deck can make Rank 4s, the only ones you should run unquestionably are Castel ans Exciton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delibirb Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 I like heartlandraco + cowboy as game finishers in different ways, but probably only cowboy would be considered staple. And even. Otherwise Abyss Dweller is a big one I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 I still run 101 if I have the Deck space to make it, for R4s. (Right now, limited to Heraldry and Yosenjus [if I even have to pull those out]) But definitely Castel for sure. I'm a little iffy on Exciton though; I still keep one around in a few Decks, but I seem to recall Black saying a couple months ago that it isn't good anymore. --- You can just talk about how good it is to run different things in different decks if you want, or you could be more general, it is up to you, I.e Nyarla used to be good in Nekroz, is it anymore? Please give reasons. I still run a copy of Nyarla in Nekroz, if only to cycle Arc-Light like crazy and search for pieces. --- Since we're talking about Xyz right now; might as well say some Synchro things. A bit iffy, but I'd probably run Clear Wing and Moonlight Black Rose for L7 drops, maybe Yazi if that still works in generic things. Not sure on Level 8s but probably Stardust Spark; I'd say Blader on 8s, but unsure on that. For smaller stuff, probably Armades, Goyo (I think he's still at 2, although can't check the list right now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugendramon Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Even when the game is technically moving away from it, and just because Nekroz and BA shrug at it, it doesn't mean a potential double board wipe at the cost of 2 level 4s and 1 Extra slot isn't good.

CLG Klavier Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 This one place is where Black is as wrong as he can get. Sure, if you're going to a huge tournament where you know only Nekroz and BA will appear, then you probably shouldn't devote an Extra/Side deck space to Exciton. But it's still a blowout against more rogue/tier 2 decks, which in case of local/online play, are much more prevalent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Isn't Exciton and 101 falling out of favor nowadays, or is that just OCG? Castel will always be good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your deck can make Rank 4s, the only ones you should run unquestionably are Castel ans Exciton. Unless you're Raidraptors.

- Minimania - Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 As a Fusion, I would pick Masked HERO Dark Law, it's really easy to just put in a dark deck at only the cost of 1 (or 2 or 3) MD slots and 1 (or 2 or 3) ED slots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexanort Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 i guess no one else putting utopia lightning here....which i thought pretty useful for getting rid of floater or some annoying lock monster like the heralds, or just for dealing a lot of damage, it does cost you 2 ED slot minimum, still pretty useful if your extra arent dead tight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slinky Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 That list would work but: - Clausolas and Arc Light are only used because Nekroz Kaledomirror - 16, and Trish are banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 That list would work but: - Clausolas and Arc Light are only used because Nekroz Kaledomirror - 16, and Trish are banned. That is a list for OCG, where 16 and trish are both around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
