iAmNateXero Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 To answer the question, No i haven't. Lightsworms are still unpredictable in my opinion, a few solemn, a couple of prohibitions, and the deck is trumped. But on the fair side, that would account to every deck now wouldn't it?

Tickle Me Emo Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I never heard of him. As for Lightswarns I think they got more hype than they deserved. They are good, no doubt but compared to Teli-DAD, GB, Dark World Synchro, and Zombie Synchro they arent all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesusofChaos™ Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Lightsworn have always been 2nd to something in a meta, and it doesnt look like they have got any better with charge. Next SJ will show more as more people get their hands on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho Shocker Android Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'm happy when I have 2 live cards in my hand when I run this deck. It's just a matter of if you mill necro gardna and wulf or end up drawing them. Even then you have to hope tele-dad doesn't OTK or that GB wont have gyzarus backed up with counter traps. The best play they have is lumina->garoth.The best thing they can do is top deck JD when you have nothing FTW. Charge is a good card, but it's not what they needed. Their win condition is JD. They need something else who can help them win duels. It's a good thing you have him at your local store ton. You should try to learn stuff from this guy. I wasn't always the player I am now. I get to play at face2face and it really helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiro Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'm not sure about LS right now. But I bet they'll be meta-breaking when they mix with Zombies when we get Carrier. LS for the milling and handy stuff (Lyla, Lumina, Garoth, Celestia...) and Zombies for the swarming power. Add Synchro to that and it's... meta-breaking.

Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Lightsworn definately have potential. No doubt about it. As previously stated, they need to be built right and run right to work. Removal of JD during the duel can really affect LS negatively. Basically, JD is their best win condition.

tonisanoob Posted September 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 the thign is this guy has won 8 times in a row at my locals and he uses pure lightsworns the only thign tht isnt lightsworn is is honests and his deck pwns EVERYTHIGN i think maybe its because everyone tries to make a ls VARIANT as opposed to pure ls...

Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 ^^^I guess thats how LS is mean't to be run. A lot of the cards that LS uses are pretty much the LS equivalent of everything else that is widely used. Example Lyla is the LS equivalent of Breaker, Celestia is the LS equivalent of a Monarch, Wulf is sort of like the LS of CyDra when used with Foolish without the situationalness of CyDra. Dare I go on? I still havent tried one with Honests yet. It works and it makes me wonder if I should try and get Honests as well as all the other cards I need for it. The build Im after is pretty much pure LS except with RotA in place of Charges until I decide to try and get the Charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark One Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 CCV wasn't a bad idea to begin with. Nice comboing with the Gardnas, but putting more capacity for dead draws in a deck that is already filled to the brim with them is just dumb. I hate the way everyone acts like no LS deck is complete without it. The majority of them shouldn't even be using it. (Although I also disagree with the view that no LS deck should use it, if you're running 3 Gardna and a few Crow, you can stick in Sangan and Reaper and whatever else, it becomes acceptable. Otherwise, no) I don't even use Gardnas in my deck, as I think the Wulfs are bad enough by themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont want the deck to cost a fortune. Its expensive enough as it is with the build Im working towards. Honests are next once I finish the first stage of the deck. A more LS / JD devoted build is much more consistent than one with PoC, Gardna and CCV. CCV costs a fortune and it is next to impossible for me to find. Im having enough trouble trying to pull the cards necessary to complete the deck as it is. PoC maybe but most likely no. Not an entirely stupid suggestion as I could use it with JD but a stupid suggestion because it uses up my Normal Summon which I usually use for Lumina which helps me swarm the field for an OTK.

JesusofChaos™ Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 To my own misfortune i have found it very hard to run LS without honest. If your opponent gets a solid wall up e.g. herk then basically ur screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Static Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 ^^ How many people that you play aim to summon Herk? Gyzarus is better and far easier to summon on repeat occasion.^^^I guess thats how LS is mean't to be run.

If its an IRL deck, I understand the lack of CCV or PoC (which really requires CCV to be really worth it). However, you mill so much with LS that leaving Gardna out for something like a second or third Garoth or a Second Ehren isn't worth it, chances are, they'll probably get milled. Plus, the three Honest will only be around $120, if you got both of your JD's, the deck should be all set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
