I haven't read the link, but the implications from it are incorrect. Gem knight fusion does not have a cost for either of its effects.

You can easily distinguish costs from newer cards because anything in front of a semi-colon(;) is a cost. Anything else is not considered a cost. Since Gem Knight Fusion does not have a semi-colon(;), it does not have a cost.

Tuner should take the admin test.

Not worth it. I should, however, take a judge test

I'm not THAT good with rulings though, honestly, most of the conclusions I come to from you guys I have to look up to double check.

>Tuner's new avvy



So in other news, I'm trashing Flint Lock after only 6 or so duels.

I'll spill the beans; It's a great gimmick combo that leads to infinite life points. Played with Fire Princess, it's a OTK. Played with Final Countdown, it's an almost guaranteed win. Played with a time limit, it's a guaranteed victory, as the player can play the combo unlimited times in one turn, thus extending the turn to the time limit and leaving with a default win (as most tourneys have IRL). The rest of the deck is all stall (Reese, Reaper, Marshmallon, Gravity, MoP) until you can get them out, and card searchers to get the combo out (shining angel, magical mallet, sangan, duality, summoner monk, spell chronicle, a few others).

The deck fits very nicely together, but in the end, it just can't stand up to being decked out and having the bad luck of not drawing the combo right, no matter how you search.

In case you were wondering, the combo is:

Flint Lock + Flint Lock + Flint + Morale Boost

Morale Boost gives 1000 LP for each time an equip spell is equipped. Flint Lock can push and pull Flint, an equip, to each other an unlimited number of times per turn. So, infinite life. Combined with Fire Princess, which does 500 LP to the opponent each time you gain LP, it's a OTK.

That being said, the deck would be hilarious against Nurse Burn.

I had never heard of Rescue Cat before. But I can understand why it's banned.

Played two games against PH, won both.

Game 1: PH had a plant beatdown deck, and it was doing its job well, let me tell you. He had me in the hole 7600-150. However, I was able to pull off epic Wind-Up related comeback and got the win. Great game.

Game 2: Pulled off an insane Wind-Up combo early on in the game and beat PH in a clean sweep, 8000-0.

gg's.

Made another new deck. One I shouldn't have made. Tuner piqued my curiosity in the archetype after telling me about it, and now I'm ashamed, and I know he would be, too. Because it's OP. Then again, the way I built it... probably isn't. At least, not as OP as it's supposed to be, because I added some own personal touches. So, there's that.

If anyone wants to test...

Thanks for the duels, Talon. Sorry had to rush like that, was being... pestered.

So, the deck has been confirmed for being OP. It was really dumb. I didn't have any fun playing it, although I will admit a lot of the combos I pulled off were nifty and cool. Not sure it's something I want to really use again.

Then I played with what is quickly becoming my new main deck (Bubblebeat) and lost the first game with that to Talon. I offered a rematch, and Talon remarked "No thanks, I hate playing against Heroes. They always lose."

Well, let's just say he finally accepted and I showed him just how wrong he was.

Just how wrong I was nothing. I told you, I have a W:L record against them of roughly 7:3. First match just happened to be the 7, second one the 3. What Deoxys is not telling you guys is that he got his deck's best possible opening hand in the second game (3 S/Ts with which to bluff-hide the best one and three 2000+ ATK creatures all out on the field in attack position) and I had my worst possible hand (3 Spells, 2 Traps, and none of them creature destruction post-summoning. For a deck that's over 50% creatures, that's damn impressive). So it was not exactly what you'd call an orthodox match-up either. The fact that I lasted as long as I did in that match doesn't disprove my theory, Deo: rather, it all but cements it. For you to prove me wrong is going to take a lot more than one lucky win.

Except for the part where that wasn't a "best possible opening hand". That is about the average hand that the deck is supposed to deal out.

It's Bubblebeat, Talon, it's not like other "E-Hero" decks, but whatever.

You were the deck's second victor. I lost once other before, and it's win number is up around 8 - 10. It even beat Tuner twice.

Considering making a new deck. Might be testing it out a little bit later.

So today, against my better judgement, my friend convinced me to sign up for a tournament at a local shop. Either gonna play a Gusto deck or his Morphtronics. I'll probably decide on the deck in tye next day or two and build a replica on DN for testing. I'm going to lose so hard.

Just have fun. It's honestly only about winning or losing if you make it such. And the only reason imo to make it such is if you think you have a solid deck and thus a decent shot at going far. Then you can make it about winning. If you're worried your IRL card access is weak, don't worry: just go and have fun. Make jokes. Be all like "and now I summon my GEARFRIED THE IRON KNIGHT IN ATTACK MODE! "

My card access is pretty wide. My friend is one of the dedicated competitive players that spends a good amount of money on plenty cards so I've got a decent collection to choose from. I'm just dreading the inevitable "lol everyone uses Wind-Ups and Dino Rabbits".

Also:

Decided to give that OP deck more shots. Unownmew successfully destroyed it by using his field spell that removed my cards from play and breaking down my wall. The second time I dueled him with it, this happened on the second turn.



My first and only OTK on DN... it was... bloody >_>

Lol, well it just got three turned killed by him in another duel because I drew TERRIBLE cards, and had no monsters out. So, very hit or miss.
