Sanguide No more

According to the new rule book released by Konami on this link, HERE It states a new ruling regarding the "Leaves the field" phrase. Based on this, I think that the tour guide + sangan = Revise Dragon remove sangan, get veiler will no longer be viable for TCG according to this. Still not sure regarding this if I understand it correctly as no example is given in the rule book. Feel free to comment!

New format.

No big yugioh news now except for the new ban list which everyone knows now. To start it off, 3 JD and 1 BLS is not really a problem. I'm really happy with the list. The only thing that I dont want about the list is the 3rd mst. It sucks really to see you starlight road go to the grave. The meta became even more faster than ever and anti meta decks just went down the drain in instant. I've heard some people say that BLS will probably only last for just 1 format. But I definitely think that it wouldn't. There are a lot of traps and monsters that can kill it. Leave BLS alone, in the field, and 70% of the time, it dies naturally by only using Catastor (goodbye to a $50 card). LOL

Being an anti meta player (not using skill drain. just a bunch of traps w/out DCK and TKRO), it I am forced to either remake my deck or just ride the bandwagon and play a twilight deck too. But I would rather remake my deck than jump to LS and other Twilight variants. So far, I only have 2 decks which is TG Rabbit Ragia and Worms. I have been testing my Rabbit deck and it has been testing well against other decks. Only problem is that it's not really as fast as DHero variants and LS decks. I need to get it faster lol. With worms, I am forced to add in more cards to control the field. I still dont have any idea what to do with worms, aside from maining 1 SLR.

This is my take for the next format for worms.

DW Madness

Just got off from a recent small tournament got 2nd place with DW (post structure deck release)

Round 1: Antimeta Beat 2-0

Game 1 : First turn Card Destruction with Grapha, Broww, Beige, and Scarr (yes. Scarr). Drew 2 pcs of DW Lightning and he was not able to take Grapha away from me. Won due to overwhelming advantage.

Game 2: Drew horribly. 3 Fields, 2 DW lightning and for the last one, PoD. Used PoD hoping to get advantage ahead of him. Fortunately, I got Morphing Jar out of it, and I was able to outplay his backrow and Banisher of Radiance on the field for the next rounds. Loving DW lightning.

Round 2: Bye. Meh.

Round 3: Antimeta Beat (Same Guy) 2-1

Game 1: He went first and set a lot of backrow and summoned Breaker. I summoned Breaker and he goes bth, 2 sets and I ended. Breaker broke my f/d allure. He summoned Kycoo, proceeded to Torrential. Drew DW Lightining and I had Grapha in hand. Proceeded to destroy his set f/d cards. Turns out they were smashing ground, divine warning. Won due to Grapha and Snnow.

Game 2: Sided out 2 Breakers, 2 Scarr, and DaD for 3 DW Dealings and 2 Cyber Dragon. Did not drew any monster. I only had spells. for almost 4 turns. Proceeded to scoop phase.

Game 3: Went ahead with summoning snnow while field is activated and set bth, torrential, solemn. I had outs for each of his monster. Good thing the field wasn't destroyed.

Round 4: Six Samurai (Mizunai) 1-2

Game 1: He goes first turn Shien with kizan in the field. Set's 4 and ends. I drew, torrential, bth, solemn judgment, scarr, 2 solemn warning. I set all and ended. He summons mizuho, i go torrential, he goes magatama. Proceeds to scoop phase.

Game 2: No first turn shien (thank god!) Was able to take the advantage using DW lightning and of course, I got to go first. Grapha and Scarr for the win.

Game 3: He opens Shien + Kizan + Mizuho and sets 1 card. I drew DaD, 2 Field, 1 DW Dealings, Grapha, Morphing Jar. Used field, he lets it go. Used dealings, and negate. I go set jar and all other cards, Mizuho destroys jar, summons 1 monster, and got 1800 left for my turn. Drew DW Lightning. Scoop. LOL.

Currently using a version of DW without dealings due to a lot of number of players using the same deck in our locals. Good thing I had PoD to at least make the deck run (if not as fast) at the same speed without dealings. Currently trying Breaker the Magical Warrior in the deck, and it proves to be good bait against bth and warnings. Been wanting to try dark flash especially now that it has already been released. Im still using the standard build of DW without the occasional tech choice of Dragged Down to the Grave. Let's see if everything goes well.

Next post: My worm deck. lol.

Tengu Era

Gone are the days where draw whoring is a must for every deck out there. With tengu in the meta now, field presence becomes even more important especially in the upcoming new format. The format slowly becomes tengu era. Even more now due to the simple addition of TG's and the like. Truly Tengu is mostly one of the most powerful floaters of all time. Even for an OCG based country such as ours (Philippines), open tournaments wherein all cards (literally all) are allowed, I was surprised with the attendance of Tengu in the tournament. Just goes to show that Reborn Tengu will incredibly dominate other decks in our country especially for people who doesn't know how to counter the card.

Powerful, yes. Limitable, Bannable, no. Its only a sub engine that makes your deck thin faster than before, but it still dominates with 1700 attack which is a bit much for some small monster deck like junk doppel and others (i can't think of anything other than that).

Tengu dominates now. But what about Tourguide? It's a whole different story. Especially with Xyz now in the picture.
