Update 1

Right now, my focus is on combining Shooting Star Dragon with Stardust Dragon/Buster for nice creative means. It also means that more deck testing is to ensue and more creativity would be shown from me.

Anyway, that's all for right now.

Scrap-Iron Trap Hole

Yu-gi-0h! Wikipedia Link: http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Scrap-Iron_Trap_Hole

Discussion:

I know this card isn't real, but I thought I might bring it up. Since Starlight Road made people fear the fact that card's presence can't field bomb freely without getting screwed by Stardust Dragon. With this card, however, will that fear be placed towards Special Summoning from the Extra Deck, in general? Or, will it place that fear in having that card face-down while Starlight Road becoming common?

So, what I'm asking: What will happen once this card is released? And if it is released, what would the fate of this card be?

Considering...

The last few days, the following things I considered:

• Making more Created Cards based off an idea from a book.
• Making a new deck based off a vision that I had when I saw "Tech Genus - Blade Gunner MAXX - 1000" in 5Ds at one time.

Thanks to the new ban list, I'm able to create that deck with Snipe Hunter at 2. Unfortunately for people's reactions, I know how they would react by this deck returning. Unfortunately for them, I can care less at this point. Unfortunately, they nailed Tech Genus - Blade Gunner. Fortunately, I can just replace that one with a more lethal one.

Anyway, that's my train of thought for the last few days.

Dance of the Rituals

This deck was made based off the Ritua monsters and Ritual Devil monsters, also namely because I made the "Ritua Chain" post without making a deck list by it. Eh? Oh, well, I guess it's time now.

Announcement 2

Well, since Konami decided to put up the ban list for September 1st, 2010. I decided to put up some more deck lists while considering what to discuss on here next.

Ritua Chain

Yu-gi-oh! Wikipedia Link: http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Ritua_Chain

Discussion:

Ritua Chain's Normal Summon ability can be an instant Manju at any time. However, the drawback to this is there's a chance that you won't get a Ritual Spell Card or a Ritual Monster.

Anyway, 1800 ATK monster? Pretty decent ATK I'd say.

For case 1, the Normal Summon ability can bring you this:

Divine Grace - Northwemko

Dark Bribe

Call of the Haunted

Obviously, one of them is a Ritual Monster. So, you add Divine Grace - Northwemko to your Hand and Call of the Haunted and Dark Bribe goes back to your Deck in any order.

For case 2, the Normal Summon ability can bring you this:

Ritual of Grace

Torrential Tribute

Mirror Force

Obviously, one of them is a Ritual Spell Card. So, you add Ritual of Grace to your Hand and rearrange Torrential Tribute and Mirror Force for your draws.

For case 3, the Normal Summon ability can bring you this:

Dark Bribe

Mirror Force

Monster Reborn

Obviously, you get nothing added to your Hand, but you can rearrange the three cards to whatever you desire.

Holy Priestess and the Acolytes

Oh well, time for more creations while I wait until the ban list appears. Enjoy!

High Priestess, Qing

****** Attribute: Light

[Spellcaster/Effect]

When this card is Special Summoned, Special Summon 1 "Loyal Acolyte" monster from your Deck to your Field. While this card is face-up on your Field, you can activate one of the following effect(s), once per turn:

• Increase the ATK of all monsters on your Field by 500 until the End Phase.
• Send 1 card from your Hand to your Graveyard to add 1 card from your Graveyard to your Hand. The card added to your Hand cannot be activated during this turn.

ATK: 2100 DEF: 2000

Loyal Acolyte, Yun

**** Attribute: Light

[Spellcaster/Effect]

"High Priestess" and "Loyal Acolyte" monsters you control cannot be destroyed by your opponent's monsters's card effects.

Announcement 1

I will hold off on Deck Building until September 1st. Since the ban list is getting near and near, I'm willing to watch what people are willing to make.

Nothing can be said for sure, until Konami releases the list to the public.

Explosive Beast Vulcannon II

The deck list is done. I just need to figure out where everything is needed and hopefully everything is in order for you to understand a simple concept that you forgot about and gain an advantage with duels.

Main Deck:

3x Flamvell Poun

2x Green Gadget

3x Machine Emperor Wisel Infinity

Morphing Jar

2x Red Gadget

3x Volcanic Counter

3x Volcanic Shell

2x Yellow Gadget

3x Fusion Gate

Future Fusion

Heavy Storm

2x Pot of Avarice

2x Terraforming

Call of the Haunted

3x Chain Material

2x Dark Bribe

3x Phoenix Wing Wind Blast

2x Starlight Road

Torrential Tribute

Extra Deck

3x Explosive Beast Vulcannon

3x Stardust Dragon

Not what you expect, eh? Fusion Gate + Chain Material would give you a decent advantage and possibly give you the best advantage possible.

Regardless, enjoy.

Fog King

Yu-gi-oh! Wikipedia Link: http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Fog_King

Discussion:

Well, the first thing that came out of my mind is..."Why doesn't this thing see much play?" Well, because no one uses Tributes that much anymore (besides Monarchs). Now, why am I doing this card? It's perfect with one of my decks I've made in the past...

Well...time to show a modified version of it:

Main Deck:

3x Ancient Gear Gadjiltron Dragon

2x Fog King

2x Cyber Dragon

3x Green Gadget

3x Red Gadget

3x Yellow Gadget

2x Cyber Vary

1x Gorz, the Emissary of Darkness

1x Heavy Storm

1x Future Fusion

1x Overload Fusion

1x Limiter Removal

2x Pot of Avarice

3x Gear Town

1x Call of the Haunted

1x Torrential Tribute

1x Mirror Force

2x Malevolent Catastrophe

2x Ultimate Offering

2x Royal Oppression

3x Stronghold the Moving Fortress

Extra Deck:

3x Chimeratech Overdragon

3x Chimeratech Fortress Dragon

Anyway, you're probably wondering why I didn't do a lengthy discussion and instead posted a deck list. It's because I wanted to try something new and interesting to do while at the same time, letting you have an idea on how I build my decks.

Regardless, enjoy.

Bloodlust

I actually considered posting some of the cards I made here instead, since I don't think people care for what I've made on another site. So, I decided to put them here and see if there's more comments from my viewers.

Crimson Witch - Dawn

****** Attribute: Light

[Spellcaster/Effect]

This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by removing 2 Plant-type monsters from your Graveyard from play. When this card attacks a Plant-type monster your opponent controls, destroy that monster without applying damage calculation and inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster's ATK.

ATK: 2200 DEF: 1200

Gathering of the Assassins

I actually considered posting some of the cards I made here instead, since I don't think people care for what I've made on another site. So, I decided to put them here and see if there's more comments from my viewers.

Assassin - Natalie

**** Attribute: Light

[Warrior/Effect]

If this card attacks a face-down Defense Position monster, destroy that monster without applying damage calculations.

ATK: 1500 DEF: 300

Explosive Beast Vulcannon

Yu-gi-oh Wikipedia Link: http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Explosive_Beast_Vulcannon

Discussion:

Well, people don't realize how powerful this card can become. In fact, with the new Machine Emperors now, I might try something new for a change and just state that this card can bring out the Machine Emperors by their effect causing your opponent to go down by a significant amount of Life Points.

The problem then becomes: "What do I need to have in this deck in order for Explosive Beast Vulcannon to work?"

Well, I'll break it down easily for you:

Pyros:

• Any Volcanic monster in existence that works well under hybrid conditions
• Flamvell/Neo Flamvell monsters

Machines:

• Gadgets
• Scraps
• Machina Monsters
• Cyber Monsters
• Machine Emperors

The list can go on, but you notice the point of where it doesn't make a bit of difference of what goes on. Anyway, enjoy.

Welcome.

I use to be the person blogging behind "The Shadow Swordsman". Now, I'm blogging for pleasure and hopefully bring you enough Yu-gi-oh! data as I can. I may or may not do anime; honestly, I'm not sure. However, enjoy it as you like it here.

I know I will.
