The Dark One Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Well, I decided to try my hand at a deck using the new Lightsworn monsters from Light of Destruction. I want to be able to fit another Draw Engine to it to increase speed. Any advice on that front would be greatly appreciated. (The Threatening Roar's would most likely be the first cards cut to make room for any adaptations.)

.:pyramid:. Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 alright remove Threatening Roar for dark bribe or solem. theirs only three lightsworn that deserve to have 3 copies of them in a deck and thats, Judgment Dragon, Lightsworn Beast Wolf, Lightlord Warrior Garos. alright this is one i made like ages ago. 3| Judgment Dragon1| Lightlord Dragon Gragonis1| Lightlord Angel Cherubim 3| Lightsworn Beast Wolf3| Lightlord Warrior Garos2| Lightsworn Paladin Jean2| Lightsworn Hunter Raikou2| Lightsworn Summoner Luminous 1| Card Trooper 2| Magical Mallet1| Heavy Storm1| Giant Trunade1| Monster Reborn 1| Premature Burial3| Solar Exchange3| Monster Reincarnation3| Lightning Vortex 2| Illusion of Flashing Light1| Mirror Force1| Torrential Tribute3| Solem Judgment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted April 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 No offense, but I'm not sure you understand the way this deck is supposed to work. Having a higher number of Lightsworn increases the chances of Garos' effect paying off. 3 Luminous is a must, as she is basically a Zombie Master for Lightsworn. She is actually even more versatile, as she can discard Spells as well as monsters. Card Trooper in this deck is a joke, we have more than enough mill here. I have 3 copies of Illusion of Flashing Light here in addition to Reborn and Prem for a reason. We're obviously going to mill through a few copies of Gragonis. He'll have plenty of ATK and piercing damage to boot. He's part of the swarm win condition. You've got the Reincarnations there, that's good. You can retrieve milled Judgement Dragons. Judgement Dragon can nuke the field before you restart your swarm and attack with 3-4 monsters. (Note, he is pretty much a seperate win condition from the one involving Luminous swarm or Gragonis. Illusion won't be able to help with him.) lol at Magical Mallet. I do, however, agree that I need more monster removal. How about -3 Roars for +2 Raigeki Break and +1 Smashing Ground? Judgment should be doing the job of Vortex in most circumstances. He'll also be covering for Trunade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:pyramid:. Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 soz if you thought they were bad fixes, but i do seriously see the need for magical mallet for unwanted lightsworn cards ( Lightsworn Beast Wolf ) but you also in ur deck idea have too many tributes. soz i was under the impression that only win condition u wanted to use was judgment dragon. so my bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in the ideal situation, most of the tributes will be milled to the Graveyard. I do have Solar Exchange in here, and I'd like to adapt another draw engine if possible. However, If I successfully swarm with Luminous, then I can get between 2 and 4 monsters on the field in the first turn, depending on the number of Luminous I draw. Luminous mills 3 cards every turn and most of the others mill 2. So if I have 2 Luminous and 1 other on the field, I should be milling 8 cards per turn. Combine with that Solar Exchange and the draw power of Garos, and I shouldn't be having any problems with the tributes. I don't really intend to tribute for them anyway. Gragonis is recursion-worthy, and Cherubim is mostly in there as any extra Lightsworn for use with Garos and Solar Exchange, though her summon is feasible, and could be used as another field-clearing tool. Anyways, any suggestions on adding more draw p[ower to the deck would be greatly appreciated. I would like to make this deck theoretically faster than DAD, if possible.

Guest Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Magical Mallet is a terrible idea for almost every deck ever, including this one. I just wanted to say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnimeRenegade Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 add raiza the storm monarch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 add raiza the storm monarch Lol, no. Raiza is from the 2007 format. It's no longer nearly as useful when a player can draw half their deck at once. Also, way to slow for this deck. It's effect only activates when it's tributed, and chances are it will be milled. Also, Cherubim is a more useful tribute summon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoPaladin2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Slightly off topic, but is cherubim not a pokemon?Oh and just so this post isn't spam, you do realise judgement's a secret? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted April 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Eh, I don't think it's a Pokemon. And this is a hypothetical deck at this point. Also, many of us play online on YVD. the rarity of the card isn't particularly relevant. Also I edited. -3 Threatening Roar+2 Raigeki Break+1 Smashing Ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtking123 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Well, guardian of order is 7 stars, and judgment dragon is 8, so trade in is an option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Guardian of Order? And Trade In would work with Judgment Dragon, but the target has to be exactly 8 stars. 7 is invalid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtking123 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 LODT-ENSP1 - Guardian of Order [super Rare]Effect Monster (Warrior / LIGHT / 8 Stars / ATK 2500 / DEF 1200) If you control 2 or more LIGHT monsters, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. You can only control 1 "Guardian of Order". Sneak peak card My fault i meant to put 8 stars, i just saw i put 7, my fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyhe Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 and i suggest putting in cards that 'fattens up' your deck,so that you won't deck yourself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneak peak card My fault i meant to put 8 stars, i just saw i put 7, my fault[/quote'] Oh, I didn't realize they told us what the sneak peak promo would be yet. He's a strong possibility. It should be easy enough to keep 2 or more monsters on the field. Does anyone else have an opinion on this? It would also make Trade-In a better possibility. You're right, though there still is the problem of Judgment Dragon being less than ideal Graveyard fodder. Still, I could see a variant of this deck arising that uses Guardian of Order and Phantom Dragon along with a Trade-In mechanic. And Lord Wyhe, I shouldn't be decking out. If you play this deck correctly, you should win before that happens. (I already averaged the milling speed at 8 cards per turn, so you can logically conclude that that means this deck wins before turn 4. Still, the nice thing about this deck is I can go over 40 cards without much fear, though I would never run more than 45.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtking123 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Monster Reincarnation and Beckoning Light are your solution for using Judgment dragon as trade in fodder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted April 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Ok, lets think about this for a moment. I activate Trade In and discard Judgment Dragon-2I draw 2 cards.+2 Total card advantage: 0 Now I activate Monster Reincarnation and discard a card.-2To add Judgment Dragon to my hand.+1 Total Card Advantage: -1 Why would I want to do that again?
