Saying Farewell to Blogger

Normally, I would keep on trying to keep it a better than it should, but it's becoming too much for the readers and for me to handle. I can understand the frustrations of keeping two card games on the same blog, but eventually, people will quit reading it, and move onto a different website.

So, I came up with a solution. By using Weebly, I can split the two topics into two separate blog threads, and keep doing what I have to do for the reader.

My new site: http://dangerascend.weebly.com/index.html

YGO BLOG: http://dangerascend.weebly.com/dangerous-ascending---a-life-of-a-duelist.html
CARDFIGHT VANGUARD BLOG: http://dangerascend.weebly.com/dangerous-ascending---a-life-of-a-cardfighter.html

Hopefully, you can enjoy the experience through this method.

Deciding what to do next (Short Post)

I'm simply getting too much on my plate at once, so I may simple it down to this:

• I will work on Breakdown Posts near immediately. I'll be doing these for both Yu-gi-oh! and Cardfight!! Vanguard.
• If I have a deck list for you, I will post it in either a Breakdown Post, so you have a sample deck list to look off of or a Deck Discussion Post. I will take rate or fixes on either post.
• If there is a request posted in the Request Page on my Weebly site, I will work on that post and get it up A.S.A.P.

Sorry, a lot of things have been coming up, and I will get to every topic eventually, but I do not know how long it'll take me.

For those who haven't noticed (Short post)

There's a list of request topics, a request submission form, and several others in the list. I know I have been off topic as of late, but I need to figure out what I should do on the Yu-gi-oh! side of things. When I'm finished with what I need to do for that, I will continue with the Request Topic list.

So, please, if you are going to request a topic, use the form, if at all possible. If you cannot view it for some reason, or if it's too out of the way, please let me know.

Yu-gi-oh! - Breakdown of Genex Hero (Moulin Glace) - Part 2

Note: Instead of doing deck discussions, I decided to include the deck within the Breakdown and elaborate on some choices here.

Deck List:

2x Genex Controller

Atlantean Armsman

Atlantean Marksman

Atlantean Seahorseman

Dark Armoed Dragon

3x Destiny Hero Diamond Dude

Elemental Hero Stratos

3x Genex Undine

Gorz the Emissary of Darkness

Moulin Glace, the Spiritual Ice-Residing Lord

2x Summoner Monk

2x Tragoedia

Allure of Darkness

Dark Hole

2x Destiny Draw

Foolish Burial

Future Fusion

Heavy Storm

3x Instant Fusion

3x Miracle Fusion

Monster Reborn

Reinforcement of the Army

2x Hope for Escape

Solemn Judgment

Solemn Warning

2x Torrential Tribute

Extra Deck

3x Elemental Hero Absolute Zero

Elemental Hero Escudirao

Flame Ghost

Rare Fish

Ancient Fairy Wyvern

Black Rose Dragon

Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier

Blade Armor Ninja

Daigusto Emeral

Lavalval Chain

Leviair the Sea Dragon

Number 39: Utopia

Steelswarm Roach

Atlantean Armsman, Seahorseman, and Marksman are the 3 choices to mill from Genex Undine's effect. Some choices I made are as follows:

• Instant Fusion over Upstart Goblin: Rather than giving my opponent 1000 Life Points, I pay 1000 Life Points to set up a Xyz Play.
• Solemn Judgment and Solemn Warning: Since this is a cost heavy deck for Hope for Escape, Solemn Judgment and Solemn Warning became obvious additions to the deck.
• 2 Hope for Escape over 3 Hope for Escape: To widen my horizons, I dumped a Solemn Warning and the third Hope for Escape for 2 Torrential Tributes.

Other than that, if you need me to expand on other choices, let me know by commenting. Anyway, rate, comment, fix, thoughts, or comment.

Yu-gi-oh! - Breakdown of Genex Hero (Moulin Glace) - Part 1

In the Yu-gi-oh! Speculation post, I was looking at Genex Hero first, and seeing how it'll take into account Moulin Glace, so I dove into the Genex portion a bit more, and found out that it'll be stupid to just splash in one part of the archetype. By opening up variety of chains, you can use different outs like causing one of the following:

• Getting Genex Controller and popping a face-up card on your opponent's Field.
• Getting Genex Controller and popping a Set card on your opponent's Field.
• Getting Genex Controller and Moulin Glace.

With that, you can set-up your next move, if you have certain cards within your hand, but that'll be a problem if you don't have a back-up engine, so these two engines were used:

• Undine Engine
• Summoner Monk Engine (which can use Elemental Hero Stratos)

One thing that can branch Moulin Glace and Dark Armed Dragon is Lavalval Chain, since it can foolish pieces easily, and cause a bunch of plays if need be.

With the search engines, there's draw engines that were added:

• Hope for Escape
• Utilizing Upstart Goblin seemed a bit pointless, so I went with paying all crazy if need be, so my resources never deplete.
• Destiny Draw and Allure of Darkness
• Since I focused it more around Destiny Heroes and Genex Controller, both of these cards can see play. (For Destiny Heroes, I only use Diamond Dude.) Also, Diamond Dude can send these to Graveyard, since both of these are Normal Spell Cards.

Deck List and explanation of some choices will be posted in the next Part.

Yu-gi-oh! Speculation - Moulin Glace the Spiritual Ice-Residing Lord

Well, this is starting to make me wonder quite a bit about how everything is set-up, so I started to tweak a Genex Hero deck to accept this card: (Card name, stats, and effect came from Dueling Network)

Moulin Glace the Spiritual Ice-Residing Lord

********    Attribute: Water

[Sea-Serpent/Effect]

Cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. Must be Special Summoned (from your hand) by having exactly 5 WATER monsters in your Graveyard, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. When this card is Special Summoned: Discard 2 random cards from your opponent's hand. The effect of "Moulin Glace the Spiritual Ice-Residing Lord" can only be activated one per turn. If this card leaves the field, skip the Battle Phase of your next turn.

ATK: 2800   DEF: 2200

I started to wonder if this would be possible, because of how Heroes are played, and how Elemental Hero Bubbleman could be potentially used. But why Genex?

Genex Undine + Atlantean Seahorseman = Genex Controller and Moulin Glace the Spiritual Ice-Residing Lord in your Hand after searching.

Could this be potentially be a similar case to Dark Armed Dragon, of which players would try to run it as much as they can? Who knows. Only time will tell.

Decided to try something out

Sorry that I have been out for the past few days, but I was testing out something that a friend requested, and it seemed interesting, so I tried it out.

http://gpxplus.net/

So far, it seems pretty interesting, you get to raise your Pokemon and that, but you don't get to catch them out in the Field. Instead, you are either A) Given an egg to raise or B) Catch it in Safari Zone. Other than that, it's similar to a game called Yu-gi-oh! BAM where you can just leave it closed for a while, then come back, and either A) You gain progress or B) You can leave where you left off.

If you are interested to try it, feel free.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Breakdown of Nubatama

Another clan that only needs 1 part due to it having 4 units. Here's the card images below:

Stealth Dragon, Voidmaster (top left) is a 9000 Power Grade 3 Attacker with an effect listed below:

• Auto (V): When this Unit attacks, and your Hand has more cards than the Opponent's, for that Battle, this unit gains +3000 Power.
• Auto (V/R) : (Counter Blast (1)) When this Unit's attack hits, and your Hand has less cards than the Opponent's, you may pay the cost. If so, your Opponent selects a card from their Hand and discards it.

While your hand is greater than your opponent's hand, you can have 3000 more Power added to it as a Vanguard. If you have less cards in your Hand than your opponent's Hand, you can force your opponent to discard a card from their hand if the attack hits, while this card is either a Vanguard or a Rear Guard.

Stealth Beast, Chigasumi (top right) is a 8000 Grade 2 Attacker with an effect listed below:

• Auto (V/R): When this Unit attacks, and your Hand has more cards than your Opponent's, for that battle, this Unit gains +3000 Power.

While your hand is greater than your opponent's hand, you can have 3000 more Power added to it as a Vanguard or Rear Guard.

Stealth Dragon, Dreadmaster (bottom left) is a 7000 Grade 1 Booster with an effect listed below:

• Auto (R): (Counter Blast (1)) When the «Nubatama» boosted by this Unit's attack hits, and if your Hand is less than the Opponent's, you may pay the cost. If so, the Opponent chooses 1 card from their Hand and discards it.

If you use this card to boost a Nubatama attacker, and if it hits, you can make your opponent lose 1-2 cards by the cost of Counterblast once or twice.

Stealth Beast, Hagakure (bottom right) is a 5000 Grade 0 Booster with an effect listed below:

• Auto: (Counter Blast (1)) When this Unit is called to the Guardian Circle, you have a «Nubatama» Vanguard, and your Hand is less than your Opponent's, you may pay the cost. If so, the Opponent chooses 1 card from their own hand and discard it.

If you have a Nubatama Vanguard, and if this unit gets called to the Guardian Circle, you can force your opponent to discard 1 by Counterblasting once.

Nothing else is known, other than it's mostly a Rear Guard clan.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Breakdown of Etrangers

Currently, there's only 3 cards for Etrangers, so only 1 part is needed. The 3 cards are shown below:

Blaster Keroro (left) is the Blaster variant for Etrangers. He's a Grade 2 9000 Power Attacker with an effect listed below:

• AUTO (V/R): When this unit attacks, if the number of cards in your hand is greater than your opponent's, this unit gets +3000 power until the end of that battle.

Blaster Keroro can go up to 12000 Power to hit 10000 or 11000 Power Vanguards. Blaster Mameshiba (middle) is another Blaster variant for Etrangers. He's a Grade 0 5000 Power Booster with an effect listed below:

• Auto: When this Unit is moved from the Guardian Circle to the Drop Zone, move this card into Soul.

Pretty much similar to Giro and them from the other clans. Incandescent Lion, Keroro Ezel is a Grade 3 10000 Power Attacker with an effect listed below:

• Auto (V/R): When this unit is boosted by an «Etrangers», this unit gets Power +2000 until the end of that battle.

When Etrangers get a booster, this card can hit for more power when boosted by an Etrangers.

Right now, nothing else is known about the clan, except for that it is generically Rear Guard based.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Phantom Blaster Overlord - Part 3

Now, for the combination of the two, where you focus in on the Phantom Blaster Dragon portion, while having an out, just in case, having 10000 or 11000 isn't enough, you can go up to 13000.

Strategy:
Combination of Part 1 and Part 2.

Deck List:


Grade 0:
4x Grim Reaper
4x Death Feather Eagle
4x Darkside Trumpeter
4x Abyss Healer
Fullbau

Grade 1:
4x Blaster Javelin
3x Black Sage, Charon
3x Dark Shield, Mac Lir
3x Apocolypse Bat

Grade 2:
4x Knight of the Void, Masquerade
4x Demon World Castle, Donnerschlag
2x Blaster Dark

Grade 3:
4x Phantom Blaster Dragon
2x Phantom Blaster Overlord
4x Dark Magician, Babd Catha

If you have any questions, comments, or thoughts, leave a comment.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Phantom Blaster Overlord - Part 2

In the first part, I focused a bit on the defensive side; however there's an offensive side to this as well, which is without Phantom Blaster Overlord as Vanguard, but with Phantom Blaster Dragon as Vanguard. With Part 3; however, I'll attempt to merge the two, and hope that it'll succeed.

Strategy:
This strategy is focused more about the Power Lanes then ever, and if all possible, use Phantom Blaster Dragon's effect to strike the Vanguard, free up a lane, then place a stronger lane to replace it.

For example:

• Left Rear Guard Lane could have this:
• Knight of the Void, Masquerade in front Left Rear Guard Circle.
• Black Sage, Charon in back Left Rear Guard Circle.
• Vanguard Lane could have this:
• Phantom Blaster Dragon as Vanguard (with 11000 Power)
• Nothing to boost Phantom Blaster Dragon
• Right Rear Guard Lane could have this:
• Demon World Castle, Donnerschlag in front Right Rear Guard Circle.
• Black Sage, Charon in back Right Rear Guard Circle.

And even if you don't have the correct booster to hit 20000, then you can use the abilities of both of them to hit their Vanguard, because both of them can go up to 12000 Power, if necessary.

Deck List:

Grade 0:

4x Grim Reaper

4x Death Feather Eagle

4x Darkside Trumpeter

4x Abyss Healer

Fullbau

Grade 1:

4x Blaster Javelin

4x Black Sage, Charon

3x Dark Shield, Mac Lir

3x Witch of Secret Medicine, Arianrhod

Grade 2:

4x Knight of the Void, Masquerade

4x Demon World Castle, Donnerschlag

3x Blaster Dark

Grade 3:

4x Phantom Blaster Dragon

4x Dark Magician, Babd Catha

Reason why I will disagree with players is that, with Phantom Blaster Overlord being their "win" card, they can't focus in on anything else, which disappoints me, hence why I extend this discussion into three parts. One with sole focus is Phantom Blaster Overlord, which to me is defensive, one without Phantom Blaster Overlord, which is offensive, and one with the best of both worlds.

Anyway, if you have any questions, thoughts, or comments, leave a comment.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Phantom Blaster Overlord - Part 1

Strategy:
Basic strategy is to focus on getting a 13000 base Vanguard, because once you have that, you can disrupt your opponent. Other than that, it's draining your opponent's resources, then piercing through and hitting your opponent directly.

A quick way to set up Phantom Blaster Overlord's 13000 base ability, you can use Nightmare Painter's ability to place Phantom Blaster Dragon into your Soul directly, and be set up for the remainder of the game.

Sample Deck List:

Grade 0:
4x Grim Reaper
4x Death Feather Eagle
4x Darkside Trumpeter
4x Abyss Healer
Fullbau

Grade 1:
4x Blaster Javelin
4x Nightmare Painter
4x Dark Shield, Mac Lir

Grade 2:
4x Skull Witch Nemain
4x Blaster Dark
3x Demon World Castle, Fatalita

Grade 3:
4x Phantom Blaster Dragon
2x Origin Mage, Ildona
4x Phantom Blaster Overlord

If you have any thoughts, comments, or questions, leave a comment.

EDIT: Figured out a way around something different for you guys to enjoy, so this deck discussion is going to broken into three parts: One that focuses on Phantom Blaster Overlord, One that focuses on Phantom Blaster Dragon, and One that focuses in on both cards.

Yu-gi-oh! - Ban List Discussion (Short Post)

If anyone is wondering what I'm going to say about the ban list is going to be a typical response on everyone's minds, and it'll be that the top decks will be hit, the new cards will replace the top decks, and the cycle continues.

What I do is not worry about it and try to make consistent decks that work against people on Dueling Network, because 9 times out of 10, while someone else is deeply regretting getting a certain card, due to it being banned, you can potentially use cards that have the same consistent levels as last format's, and still face against the new meta that appears.

Anyway, just typing out my thoughts here about the Yu-gi-oh! Ban List, and I'm going to enjoy working on guides to help players use certain deck types that they are interested in, better.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Granblue Superior Ride

Strategy:
Simply to get to Grade 3 as fast as you can, then use Power Lane Beatdown until your opponent dies. Ways to superior ride in this deck are as follows:

Knight Spirit + Samurai Spirit + Grade 2 Vanguard = Spirit Exceed

Deadly Nightmare + Deadly Spirit + Grade 2 Vanguard = Deadly Swordsmaster

Carefully manage what you do for Soul Blasting and Counterblasting, because once you use up your options, and if your opponent is still alive, then you have lost the game.

Deck List:

Grade 0:

4x Knight Spirit

4x Hades Steersman

4x Skeleton Lookout

4x Doctor Rogue

2x Chappie the Ghost

Captain Nightkid (Starting Vanguard)

Grade 1:

4x Deadly Nightmare

4x Samurai Spirit

3x Gust Jinn

3x Evil Shade

Grade 2:

4x Captain Nightmist

4x Deadly Spirit

3x Ruin Shade

Grade 3:

4x Undead Dragon Skull Dragon

Spirit Exceed

Deadly Swordsmaster

Yu-gi-oh! - Potential

Right now, people have been pointing out few things about cards, so I decided to make a section on why I make decks the way I make decks.

Main Deck:

3x Effect Veiler

Gorz the Emissary of Darkness

2x Maxx "C"

2x Tragoedia

Dark Hole

Heavy Storm

Monster Reborn

2x Mystical Space Typhoon

3x Upstart Goblin

2x Bottomless Trap Hole

3x Hope for Escape

2x Torrential Tribute

Side Deck:

3x D.D. Crow

2x Droll and Lock Bird

2x Night Beam

3x Pot of Duality

2x Compulsary Evacuation Device

The Choices:

Effect Veiler: Since priority is gone, this sees more play.

Gorz the Emissary of Darkness: It's an obvious hand trap that you can use to stop your opponent.

Maxx "C": Either your opponent stops Special Summoning or you gain massive pluses.

D.D. Crow: Another hand trap to screw with your opponent's Graveyard.

Droll and Lock Bird: Counter to Maxx "C".

Tragoedia: Another hand trap to stop your opponent.

Dark Hole, Heavy Storm, and Monster Reborn are obvious.

Mystical Space Typhoon versus Night Beam: Depends on preference.

Upstart Goblin versus Pot of Duality: Depends on preference.

Bottomless Trap Hole versus Compulsary Evacuation Device: Depends on preference.

Hope for Escape: To narrowly escape losing, you can use this card to gain resources and go for your opponent one last time.

Torrential Tribute is obvious.

To clarify:

Reason why I post the way I post is because 9 times out of 10, your deck will be more focused on your combinations rather than disrupting your opponent. If I start putting in this many cards already into my deck, they'll be no variation between builds, besides the few cards I have room for left.

I just chose to not restrict myself into believing that there's this many staples already in this game. Hopefully, this answers some questions about why I post what I post, in the Yu-gi-oh! section.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Enigman Rain

Strategy:

Mainly, the strategy of this deck is the same strategy as the Nova Grappler decks with Asura Kaiser and Death Army Lady; however, you do not need a Grade 3 to be Drive Check'd. You can use this ability:

• Auto (V): When your Attack Step begins, if this Unit has 12000 or more Power, during this Battle, this Unit gains: Auto (V): When this Unit's Attack hits a Vanguard, select 1 of your Rearguards, and Stand it.

With giving Enigma Rain 12000 Attack, it'll force your opponent to either not guard and have one of your other units stand, or guard and run into a risk with a Stand Trigger. The second part of the combo is with this ability:

• Auto (R): During your Battle Phase, when this Unit Stands, if you have a <<Dimension Police>> Vanguard, select a Rearguard in the Same Column, except this card, and make it Stand.

By giving the stand ability to Miracle Beauty, you can stand a unit in the same column and attack again.

Deck List:

Grade 0:

4x Justice Colbalt

4x Guide Dolphin

4x Cosmo Fang

4x Justice Rose

Enigman Flow

Grade 1:

4x Enigman Ripple

3x Diamond Ace

3x Glory Maker

2x Cosmo Roar

Grade 2:

4x Enigman Wave

4x Masked Police Gurender

3x Cosmo Beak

Grade 3:

4x Enigman Rain

2x Enigman Storm

4x Miracle Beauty

If you have any questions, thoughts, or comments, leave a comment.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Blade Wing, Reggie

Strategy:
In simple terms, to make full use of Blade Wing, Reggie's effect.

• Continuous (V): While there are 15 or more «Dark Irregulars» in your soul, this unit gets Critical +2.

Soul Charging techniques will give this card the necessary Soul, in order for it to gain Critical +2; however, the second effect can provide up to 3 Soul. With this deck, however, it's not wise, because if you focus in on every single aspect of Soul Charging, then you would lose the advantage of hitting your opponent with the Power Lanes provided, so some Soul Charging methods need to be used.

• Demon World Marquis, Amon

Demon Would Marquis, Amon is the back-up Vanguard for this deck, solely due to his ability. It'll cause your opponent to be pushed back into a wall while you set-up your Soul for Blade Wing, Reggie; however, the downside of this is if you drain yourself too much, then you will lose the game.

• Succubus of Coquetry

This is pretty much a Grade 2 variant of Alluring Succubus.

• Succubus of Decadence

This will be in your Vanguard position if you can get it early enough to ride into it. This one will help you build your Soul to a point where getting 15 Soul would be easy.

• Succubus of Courtship

Just in case, you do not get enough Soul, you would use Succubus of Courtship as a booster, because when the attack hits a Vanguard, while this card boosts, you will be able to Soul Charge(1).

• Auto: When this unit is placed on the Vanguard circle, choose 1 of your «Dark Irregulars» Rearguards, search for up to 3 units of the same name as the chosen unit from your Deck and send them to your Soul, then shuffle your Deck.

For his second effect, two cards can benefit from that effect, which are listed below:

• Demon Bike of the Witching Hour
• Netherworld Carriage of the Witching Hour

If you target one of these, you will drag copies of one of those cards into your Soul, and their effect will boost them on how many are within:

• 1 in Soul: +2000 Power
• 2 in Soul: +4000 Power
• 3 in Soul: +6000 Power

The downside of this is that if you Damage Check them or if you draw them in your Hand, multiple copies.

Deck List:

Grade 0:

4x Dark Queen of Nightmareland

4x Puppetmaster of the Netherworld

4x Hysterical Shirley

4x Cheshire Cat of Nightmareland

3x Rock the Wall

Greedy Hand (Starting Vanguard)

Grade 1:

4x Succubus of Courtship

4x Demon Bike of the Witching Hour

3x March Rabbit of Nightmareland

Grade 2:

4x Netherworld Carriage of the Witching Hour

4x Succubus of Coquetry

3x Succubus of Decadence

Grade 3:

4x Blade Wing, Reggie

4x Demon World Marquis, Amon

Doing another experiment

There's five things I did so far:

• Made dangerascend.weebly.com my main page, due to organizing two different blogs at the same time.
• Moved the Request Topic to dangerascend.weebly.com, since no one really commented in it for new requests, and since there was no commenting, I decided to move it to dangerascend.weebly.com
• All links to both my blogs are on dangerascend.weebly.com.
• To get to my weebly page, on the NavBar, I placed "Weebly" next to home.
• I have also made a Requst Topic Submission page as well, so you can submit your topics there.

Hopefully, this experiment works out.

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Perfect Raizer

Strategy:
With Perfect Raizer, 4 Raizer is ideal for his Soul, however, if you fight an opponent that knows that, you would think about what cards to ride or not ride, and what cards to call or not call. The faster that you get in some attacks, the better off you will be in facing off against your opponent. It's lead into two stages for the strategy:

Stage 1: First Few Turns:

• With riding into Grade 1 unit and Grade 2 unit, spread your formation and open up all 3 power lanes with what you have so far. The more lanes you have open, the more damage you can deal to your opponent, because your opponent will think about one thing: Take the hit or Guard. To think about card advantage this early will follow down the road into whether you win or lose in the cardfight.

Stage 2: Perfect Raizer

• Facing off against a barrage of attacks in the first two turns, you focus in on getting the soul built up for Perfect Raizer. Perfect Raizer's first effect decreases it to a 9000 Power Vanguard Attacker, but with his second effect, for each Raizer in his soul, he gains 3000 Power during your turn. Also, when you ride into Perfect Raizer, you will pull all Raizers in the Rear Guard Circles into your Soul, so Battle Raizer, Turboraizer, Raizer Custom, and High-Powered Raizer Custom would be put into Soul, if they are within your Rear Guard Circles. The last effect really makes your opponent sting, due to the first few turns, because if they took on too much damage, they would have to deal with guarding Perfect Raizer every single turn, until they die.

Power Lane Construction:

With Power Lane construction, this'll help you help drain your opponent's hand a bit faster if the above strategy fails to work. Normally, the Shields are as follows: 5000, 10000, or 0, dealing with what card is used as a Guardian. When this strategy fails to work, you need to consider the following:

• What Vanguard they are using? 10000 Power, 11000 Power, or 13000 Power.
• What cards can I use to construct a Power Lane?
• How often will this work?

I decided to do a revisit on this deck, not only because I tested this deck further, but also test how it varies, so this was added as a back-up power lane, just in case the strategy doesn't work:

Death Metal Droid + Death Army Guy = 20000 Power Lane

Death Metal Droid + Tough Boy = 21000 Power Lane

Back-up Vanguard: 

In case, you do not get Perfect Raizer, you will need a back-up Vanguard to take the stage, which would be Asura Kaiser in this deck.

Asura Kaiser would be the "Standing all units" type of Vanguard, which will let you push for more damage, and set up Perfect Raizer whenever you have it set-up.

Deck List:

Grade 0:

4x Battleraizer (One of them will be Starting Vanguard)

4x Turboraizer

4x Grapplemania

4x Round Girl, Clara

Grade 1:

4x Death Army Guy

3x Twin Blader

3x Tough Boy

3x Raizer Custom

Grade 2:

4x Death Army Lady

4x High-Powered Raizer Custom

3x NGM Prototype

Grade 3:

4x Perfect Raizer

2x Asura Kaiser

4x Death Metal Droid

Cardfight!! Vanguard - Deck Discussion: Guardian of Truth, Lox

Strategy:

Currently, the strategy is getting Guardian of Truth Chain Ride series successfully, then using Guardian of Truth, Lox's ability to give yourself enough to win against your opponent; however that's not the only strategy.

With the retiring concept of Great Nature, we had to use some cards that would benefit from that, so I used another unit or units that can benefit greatly from this, which are listed below:

• Pencil Squire, Hammsuke
• Pencil Knight, Hammsuke
• Pencil Hero, Hammsuke

With those 3 units, if you apply a retire ability to one of them, an ability then activates in the End Phase:

• [AUTO] [Counterblast(1)] During your end phase, when this unit is placed onto your Drop Zone from the Rear Guard Circle, if you have a <<Great Nature>> Vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, search your Deck for up to 1 "Pencil _______, Hammsuke", show it to your opponent, and add it to your Hand, then shuffle your Deck.

So, when they retire, you can add another variant of that same card to your Hand at the End Phase without losing advantage.

Deck List:

Grade 0:
4x Triangle Cobra
4x Ruler Chameleon
4x General Cat
4x Dictionary Goat
Schoolyard Prodigy, Lox (Starting Vanguard)

Grade 1:
4x Bringer of Knowledge, Lox
4x Pencil Squire, Hammsuke
3x Cable Sheep
3x Silver Wolf

Grade 2:
4x Law Official, Lox
4x Pencil Knight, Hammsuke
3x Beaker Holstein

Grade 3:
3x Guardian of Truth, Lox
2x School Hunter, Leopard
3x Pencil Hero, Hammsuke
