[RATE] Lawnmowing Next Door

隣の芝刈り Tonari no Shibakari (Lawnmowing Next Door)

 

 

Normal Spell Card

(1) If there are more cards in your Deck than your opponent’s Deck: Send cards from the top of your Deck to the Graveyard until it’s the same size as your opponent’s.

When I saw the topic title, I was immediately skeptical. It might be one of the more amusing card names, though.

 

This seems like it'd be an interesting card, for Decks that want grave fodder, but because it's reliant on the opponent's Deck size, it's a bit finicky. Other than being able to self-mill 10 cards in BA or something because your opponent played Desires.

Run in 60 Monster Sack, mill 20, drop Sephylon, a 4k Metaion, and Chaos Necromancer while having a Graveyard full of traps.

As I pointed out on the discord:

 

11 Infernoids in the Main Deck

4 Void Spells that support noids

4 Void Traps that support noids, as of Void Madness

 

11 + 4 + 4 = 19

 

19 x 3 = 57

 

EXACTLY ENOUGH ROOM TO MOW THE LAWN

 

ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED

 

also you can offer your left arm to the lawn mower for value

infernoid lawnmowers, i promise you somebody will top with this at a tourney.

I assume that's not an exact decklist. Also, your left arm joke is awesome

 

OT: I can see this card going through cycles where it's good because most people run 40 card decks, but becomes worse as more people use it and thus run larger decks. As it becomes worse, the decks that rely on it stop topping and thus people move away from them, which reduces the average deck size, thus making this card better again. And so on, with other influences, such as

• other reasons the decks that use it might top or not
• other reasons people might run a more than 40 card deck

That, or it could just reach a kind of equilibrium where this card is good, but never optimal. However, I suspect that the "other influences" listed above will keep the usage of this card on a rollercoaster.

[vla1ne]

even when it does catche on, you can always side deck it so that you don't dead draw it. it's essentially a less situational fiend comedian.

How are you supposed to activate this when deck size isn't public knowledge?

"How are you supposed to activate this when deck size isn't public knowledge?"

 

 

Since when was deck size not public knowledge?

[~British Soul~]

Not gonna lie, when I first saw this I thought "this must be the short print spell." then I saw that it's actually a Super and I was like "that'll do it." Also I will admit that I didn't know the size of your opponents deck is considered public knowledge.

"Since when was deck size not public knowledge?"

 

A judge at my locals once ruled that so long as a player's deck size was confirmed legal by their entry form, they never had to verify their deck size when asked by the opponent. I never heard anything contrary so I assumed it held true.

An amusing-looking card; doesn't exactly shout lawnmowing (not initially at least), but whatever.

 

Might it be cute little toy to use in Infernoid and Lightsworn, or would it require a big/dedicated Deck or your opponent to thin their Deck more than you?

[zjyugioh]

You think it may take a while before the players recount their current Deck size you think.

if I know that my opponent has a set mind crush, I will ask them how many cards they have in their deck while counting how many are in mine.

Your locals judge is an idiot, like everyone else's.

Congrats! You're one of us!
