Information Post

I will slowly start back posting on this again. as Abyss Rising has been fully spoiled and all I am waiting for now is for DN to get all of the cards or for all the pictures to be in one location so I can get them all without too much effort. After I eventually finish these reviews I'll have some interesting WATER decks to show off. Penguins, Tinplate Lemuria, Mermail, Gishki, Atlantean Mermail, Atlantean Divas. Along with some fun ways to run Monarchs. Trooper Monarch!!! Neo Apprentice Monarch!!!

I picture October and September having far more new releases than I have listed but they just haven't been announced yet.

Whoops

Sorry for the lack of posts... yesterday the internet was down from a severe thunderstorm... and today I had Senior Honor's Night to attend... I got an Accounting Award and a AP Computer Science Award... I also am graduating with Honors. I am on the "A" Honor Roll and am quite prepared to take my AP Computer Science AP Test tomorrow morning. In otherwords I have to study. I'll be back tomorrow with how it went and a blog post showing off some random idea that I fancy... Possibly a Beast-Down deck if that is what you all like.

heh heh

Runs out of things to post whatsoever... um I guess I can fill in with information about what I've done recently... Madolce are quite interesting, especially Madolce Majoleine... As she like Stratos can search another copy of herself... She's also a Spellcaster so benefits from Hygromantei Books of Spell... Magical Warrior Forse is quite nice in this regard... Forse can return Grimoire and Hygromantei to your deck so that they can loop each other while boosting Forse 500 everyturn... turn 1 3000 beater that searches Grimoire is really nice... Forse's effect on a Majoleine can be quite nice too 1900 beater that can go back in the deck upon murder... So the deck works like this.

You summon Majoleine... search Majoleine... and then run it like 5th gadget with even less monsters lol. So all the deck needs is to obtain 1 Majoleine at the start of the game and it'll always have a monster... of course this is all just a concept. The deck does need some kind of muscle as the biggest Majoleine i've made was 2900... using both Forse and Hygromanteia... The deck works and keeps advantage quite well through those one for one trades. It runs Card car D because sometimes you don't need to play anything at all...

I've been thinking of putting in Tragoedia and Veilers and Maxx "C" and stuff just so that I have more cards to use from hand and Tragoedia would enable me to have a bigger beater than 2000 Forse... Fissure and Smashing grounds in tandem give me a ton of monster removal but the deck really needs to be able to put out bigger monsters. I could use Madolce Chateau but that'd be hard because I want Majoleine to return to deck lol... but a 1900 Stratos is nothing to scoff at. I'll keep researching these Madolce, Magical, Geargia, Earth cards as much as I can. Thanks for viewing and sorry I don't have a card review this time I just haven't found anything...

Not really a review but a status update

So June the next month for Card Reviews won't have the newest set... Thats a bad thing for me... New set comes out in July... Cover card is CNo 32 Ocean Biting Dragon Shark Drake Vice... wins my award for best Chaos Xyz monster in the game based on name alone. 3 Level 4 monsters was hard enough for a monster that consistently deals big damage... I can't wait to see what it's Chaos Xyz Change does. considering it would have 4 Materials lol. What if it let you like I don't really know unlike Vanguard stuff like this isn't easy... what if when you had 1000 or less life... this card is unaffected by card effects and cannot be selected as an attack target plus it's original effect lol. (Or make that first part of the effect sorta like Gantetsu and have it remove a material as a quick effect to make it like Sacred Omega that can't be hit... and give it some ridiculous effect. Well anyway I had nothing real today lol.

Just scroll down to yesterdays post

Ya see I have nothing to say... I don't feel up to making any posts while I feel terrible thanks to allergies. Sorry guys. If I could get into contact with Spitta that'd be helpful lol.

Gah... I'm feeling bad today

I would have a post up for you but I've been feeling a little out of it since this morning... I'll have a Fiend deck ready for tomorrow but right now I just need to get some rest see if I'm just really tired. Thank you all for understanding and do you know how hard it is to make a new idea every day? It's very hard...

Alright new plan

I'm gonna have to push back the reviews a bit... I now have internet access but don't have time to review the cards inbetween events so new idea is new idea... I'll be sure to have all the review done on time just believe in me k guys?

Alright this is my first major Holiday that's worth talking about

So I'm going to take a break from blogging today in order to research a bit more into my next post and because I have a lot coming up like a trip to Florida to see family within the next few days or so. If you have any requests for a post you'd like to see me make just comment here and I'll make time for it immediately.

I'm not dead

DN is in the way of me building fun decks fer you all. So just be patient

Sometimes I feel like a 5 year old

When something doesn't go my way I instantly rage about it... thinking about my last post now... I'm just a dumbass who forgot that card games always run a major luck factor. Just that this format that Luck Factor is far more prevalent. Top decked Tour Guide can become game changing. Turn 1 Tour Guide can set up so much. But Also all of these kinds of plays are common and easily interrupted if you can draw a single Veiler. So what about just running Anti-Meta traps that Konami makes so often... First and foremost this Meta is all about simple removal through either large monsters with their effects or MST and Storm. Meaning no one is prepared for Traps that stop such things before they can happen. Paying Life Points this format is an extreme gamble and should only be done if you are confident it will stop your opponent cold. Black Horn of Heaven, Starlight Road, Brionac, Stardust Dragon and Effect Veiler will be greatly useful for the rest of the format. Battle Fader is also really useful to stop that push. LaDD control is looking really nice right now. And to summon it is quite easy... Think of it like this... Summoner Monk gets Eclipse Wyvern (Harder in TCG but just as doable) for Lavalval Chain and banished LaDD... put BLS on top of deck... End turn... they have to kill Chain or deal with BLS and another chosen draw (Tour Guide). You also now have a LaDD in your hand that you didn't have to draw into. I'm going to try this idea out and tell you all how it goes tonight. If all goes well I'll be quite happy. Besides I'm not the type to rant and follow through. So thanks for your continued support if it weren't for you all viewing my blog daily I wouldn't have the spirit to make posts. Right now this blog and my judging are all that keeps me playing this game (aside from the fact that I put in 10+ years into it.).

Anyway Wall of Text is now over and I'm ready... "Hametsu no Photon Stream!!!"

I have nothing

I was gonna post a Verz build but it turned out to be terrible... I was gonna post one of my many new decks but now they are all terrible... Because for some reason Gravekeepers cannot be beaten by Synchro Monsters... Fucking Malefic Stardust... somehow I couldn't get a single monster over 2500... yet alone a single Synchro Summon... So things the deck normally does every duel just didn't happen... Necrovalley never even affected me... It was always me being unable by any means to summon a monster above 2500... or even a monster that could get rid of the Malefic Stardust... yet alone beat it in battle... So in other words I can't play yugioh until I have Tour Guide... and 3 Rai-Oh without those theres no point... as whenever I put those in a deck it becomes nigh unstoppable... Yay for being unable to play in real life because the people at your shop talk shit about you behind your back while everytime you go there you wreck them... Also those same people not believing you could be a judge until after they see you judging no matter what hints you give them... like "Julia herself said..." and so on.... So in otherwords I am wasting my time... I can't even have fun playing this game because the deck I put so much work into ever since I got back into this game seriously- after CRMS and it's subsequent bans- just hates me for some reason... I can never draw anything useful ever... just dumb... Anyway I'm not quitting this game as I've put too much into it so I'll try to have a post tomorrow if I'm not so pissed off about this honestly speaking terrible game... (It's fun but rather terrible in that every card in most decks is on it's own gamebreaking... Tour Guide, Tengu, Hyperion, Leviair, Lavalval Chain.) STOP THE FUCKING POWER CREEP!! One should not be able to make a single Normal Summon turn into an essential OTK...

I'm just really really annoyed... and I know you all are annoyed of my ranting on here... so I'll stop... and I'm sorry for the language in the rant... I just couldn't help it... I'm really stressed right now...

No more Order of Chaos reviews...

I can't deal with the constant annoyances right now... I'll have a post for you soon on some ideas i've been working on.

Well Dang...

I got cut from judging because we didn't have enough people attend in order to hold 13 judges so I was one of the 4 cut... so after my 1 hour drive there at 6 o clock in the morning and my purchases of shoes and a shirt to judge in (needs to have black shoes and a black shirt and black pants... with no logo's or pictures... I don't want to talk about it right now... sorry but there won't be a post today while I recover from the mental depression of having hopes dashed...

Confidence and why you need it

When dueling you often think, my opponent looks calm and collected, he's outplaying me at all turns, I'm scared of him... You may not think these exact things but you'll feel them. Most times you like Yusei will often be quite scared when your opponent is destroying you ruthlessly and you have no way of fighting back... But that's when confidence is needed. If you are confident in your plays and your deck building skills you will be able to notice and separate your good plays from your risky plays and bad plays and decide which kind of play will open up your opponent to a mistake. Say you are facing down a BLS, Leviathan Dragon, and Stardust Dragon (don't ask how). You know you can only live 1 turn and throughout the duel you've been getting murdered and last duel was no exception. If you aren't confident in your abilities and don't take the chance to truly recognize your opponent for what they are you will have no hope. If you calmly retain confidence and see that your opponent has too much confidence in himself you can with the right cards and draw win the game. If you don't have confidence though you'll draw the right card and not pull off the game ending combo due to a misplay.

Well honestly if you aren't confident you won't win very often which will eventually make you even less confident... that's how I was back when I was younger but then Ernest told me to think of my opponents as worse than myself so as to increase my confidence level. Now that I have confidence in my play I don't overestimate my opponent or even underestimate I just play my game and avoid at all costs like the plague to get wrapped up in my opponents pace (once that happens you can no longer really win).

Anyway that's just a random thought I had and wish me luck for tomorrow I'm on the Paper Team.

That legit post will have to wait

I need to review the tournament policy and penalty documents nut in exchange ill try to take notes of what happens at the regional and maybe take pictures. btw the regional is sunday

I'll do the whole rest of the monsters tomorrow for sure

just trust me on this...

welp this is what happens

I get Skyrim and get hooked on it for two days... To make up for my broken promises on thanksgiving I'll do all the Inzecters and as many monsters as I can in a time frame of 2 hours. (Honestly these reviews would be so easy if I could just put a card name and the review but I am forced to do a picture, the effect, stats and review it's quite annoying to do that for every card... I am looking forward to reviewing the set but I'm just ugh tired.

tomorrow will be review number 3

not doing it today because I quite frankly don't really feel like it because you all know how broken Inzecter's are. Don't worry I'm not going anywhere I'm just not up to it today.

Meganiums and Poor Relations Oh MY

Completely unrelated to Yugioh because I'm slightly annoyed with that game right now and the lack of Order of Chaos Full Spoiler (It comes out this week so it better get a spoiler soon).

Well my Pokemon Gold Meganium Only run has gone rather well I hit level 50 by time I went to the Mahogany Town Gym so it was really easy... So by time I get to the Elite Four I should be level 60 with a terrible moveset... (Cut, Swagger, Razor Leaf, Synthesis) Only problem is Ho-Oh... even at level 40 it will be hard... A single well placed Fire Attack will murder me and Razor Leaf will deal near to no damage... Best chance is early swagger and bombard with Cut... I also decided to make a fun challenge out of Pokemon White... I hacked it so that I could get a Victini with V-Create but I cut Experience Gains by half I'm also going to do that as a Victini Only run... Meaning Victini is going to need a really good moveset... So far it's (V-Create, Confusion, Incinerate,  Quick Attack). I'm going to need some really good type-coverage for this game... the Fire Psychic typing though should cover a few gyms relatively easily and Victini can learn tons of good moves... I'm doing it with Victini right now though because I want to see how easy it is when you have tons of moves at your disposal to make up for Level Differences...  What are your thoughts on a Joltik and it's evolution Only Run with Half Experience and No Items except TM's/HM's? (Its quite possibly impossible just because Joltik is a Bug and Electric and there are many Gyms that kill those types (Ground Gym anyone...) I'm going to try it soon.

On the topic of Poor Relations I have just finished Marion Chesney's Poor Relation Series... I'm almost finished up to the most recent book Georgia Byng's Molly Moon series... I finished Harry Potter twice through and more than twice most books... I'm waiting for the next book in the Cat Royal series by Julia Golding to come to my doorstep... I'm also waiting for the next Xanth novel by Piers Anthony to come out... Aside from that though does anyone have any book recommendations in the vein of Romantic Science Fiction or Romantic Fantasy or especially Victorian setting Romance novels (Nothing with too much vulgarity please)?

So as you can tell I'm quite bored and making up Challenges in RPG's is somewhat fun for me though along with watching anime and reading books... as it stands I'm redownloading all 200 episodes of Sailor Moon and then I'm going to download the movies and put them all on my External HD... Then I'll redownload all of the original Yu-Gi-Oh and finish the series and store them as well... 1 TB is an immense help.

On the Yu-Gi-Oh front though I'm patiently waiting for the Order of Chaos full Spoiler (Assuming patiently means checking shriek every few hours and their partners). I'm also trying my hardest to think of a stable deck I can run on DN that isn't mainstream... I was thinking Laval Quasar but then I realized that depends on my draw and DN doesn't care about actual probability. My Ninja or Inzecter decks normally do well though (Who doesn't love Inzecters and their random OTK's or Ninja's and their Random Galaxy Eyes/Dark Horus/Light Pulsar/REDMD) So far I'm thinking about extrapolating my Lavalval deck and making it slightly more Hero oriented as in Chain can now place Stratos on top of my deck if I can't draw it turn 1. It would also allow access to Super Polymerization along with Ninjitsu Art of Super Transformation (half the monsters in my deck can suddenly steal an opponents monster so I can make a bigger one!!!) Miracle Fusion would also be a possibility and with Lavalval Chain I can reliably run Dandylion and Debris Dragon as well... it's gonna be a mish mash of a deck though so I'm gonna try to fit it all in. Debris also can make an easy Rank 4 with Gold Ninja so eh it's an idea.

Copying Ryu Kuze: Updates

Next posts will be for:
- Cardfight!! Vanguard deck analysis Dimensional Police
- Gagaga Back Redux
- Order of Chaos full set review (The day it gets spoilt,)
- An Analysis of my reading habits and what I like and an appeal for other similar titles.
- Results of my Pokemon Gold: Grass Starter Only Run (It's hard because Meganium is terrible and most gyms murder it... so far beat Gym 4 with a Level 38 Meganium due to them never using Hypnosis for a free Dream Eater murder.
- Ninja Engine and it's uses outside of Ninja's.

The Random seeming posts up there will probably take up the same post... BTW my Birthday is on the 16th of November I'll be turning 17. I may be Judging the next Regional in GA on the 4th of December.
