Decoy Dragon: Discussion

Anyone else remember the old Decoy Dragon topic? Comedy gold.

 

Nope. Link to it?

 

If I was on anything other than my Wii, I would have provided it. Instead, I'll necrobump it.

Frankly, i'm a little surprised. Everyone is bashing on it as a bad card. I see some good potential there.

The probably of someone being able to remember each and every card placed in the graveyard is very slim. You can pull out a surprise.

Not only that, because it's effect can only be activated if it's attacked, it forces an opponent to waste a Spell or Trap card to get rid of it unless they want to battle a powerful Dragon monster. And if anyone knows anything about Dragon monsters, they tend to have to highest Attack Rating of them all.

So, honestly, I don't see what's so bad about it.

I still can't believe that wasn't sarcasm.

I attack Decoy Dragon all the time, but that's usually to use its effect to my benefit.

A few lifepoints lost is nothing compared to the destruction that can be wrought afterwards.

Granted, I play by old-style rules (no-restrictions) so its a little different in a restricted deck.

Plus its been years since I've been in a tournament, so obviously this doesn't belong in a tournament level deck...unless you've got some pretty nice dragons that you like to stick in the graveyard on a regular basis...

You're a bad player, so your opinion on this isn't important.

You are allowing your opponent to Special Summon a high-level Dragon-Type monster from their Graveyard, and in the process are giving up a monster of your own and several Life Points. Nowhere in this process are you the one destroying the opponent.

It's more of the psychological aspect of him being afraid of nothing rather than actually winning. It's how they do it in old-school Yugioh.

If my opponent were to -2 themselves and give up LP on a stupid move like that, I wouldn't be afraid. I'd simply conclude that they were an idiot.

Card can be good situationaly

 

You can find any elaborate situation where only one card could be a decent saving grace, but that's not saying much.

 

The writers for Yu-Gi-Oh do it all the time. <_<

The correct term is FAIL.

 

Sorry, I misspelled that. F-A-Y-L-E. That's better.
