Darkworlds

hello! I am still wondering what to play. I thought of so many decks, but none seem to be fun. Untill Lord Grapha appeared from the dark realm and approached me. He asked me to lead his army to victory. he said he will give me his full strength in guiding his army to victory. So im now officially possessed by The dark forces. ok that was random but yeah! this is about the powers of darkworlds! why i choose to play them? well mainly cause its not as boring as inzectors and mainly because it gives hand control and also the ability to main skill drain. Some people may say its not consistent, but with the right build, its consistency can be increased ten fold! of course every deck has consistency issues. In darkworlds, if you are able to dragdown in turn 1 with a mind crush and grapha on the field, its 90% game. this happens alot of times. tell me which deck has 6 draw power cards that net you so much advantage? which deck now has 2 draw phases? which deck can abuse skill drain without any problems? ok now another thing. Everybody now is maining 3 effect veilors and some are even maining chain disappearance. well! guess what? against darkworld you have 4 dead cards! The only problem darkworld players face is the side deck. its very easy to side against darkworld. A good player will not only side against a deck, but also side against a side deck. for example, siding MST to counter macro cosmos. If control is what your looking for, then play darkworld. trust me, Grapha is a bitch~

WCQ part 2

so im given 2 more chances to donate as there are 2 more mini qualifiers for our WCQ.
Ok lets see, what to play? In terms of the mini qualifier, i was hoping to play Darkworld, Blackwings and inzectors. And guess what? inzectors made me a free kill for everyone there by always giving me 2 raigeki breaks and 2 warning with no monsters. So the remaining 2 decks are DW and BW. Of course i trust my BW more than any deck. since there are 5 more qualifiers of where you have to use your final decklist for 2 of them or else you will most probably not be able to register, there is no harm in trying 1 or 2 decks out!

WCQ

ok I really miss my Black feather deck! If anybody thinks i should use BF for WCQ pls comment! If i get atleast 10 comments i shall play BF and create new history! down with inzectors!

A new curse + tourney report

so I have a new curse now. make it to top 8 and loose 2-0 for 3 weeks in a row! what sorcery is this?

deck played: boring inzectors

match 1 vs laval(XX)
round 1- I went first, set 2 cards and summoned card car D which got veilered. next turn he storm and quasar me!
round 2- drew 3 hornets and he drew everything he needed!

match 2 vs inzectors(2 times asia champ)(0X0)
round 1- we both summon one inzect per turn and we both stop each other untill i drew more then him using card card D as we both were depleted of hand size!
round 2- He otk-ed me
round 3- He depleted his hand by using 2 raigeki breaks. so i summoned DAD ftw!

match 3 vs inzector(X00)
round 1- standard inzector plays, nothing interesting
round 2- I managed to reborn his damsel forcing him to torrential, then i summoned mine to gain control
round 3- Was a slow paced game. I had 5 darks in my grave and a set transmigration prophecy. Can anybody guess what i drew?

match 4 vs chaos dragon(00)
round 1- giga mantis otk
round 2- storm + giga mantis otk

top 8 vs tourguide inzectors(XX)
round 1- top draw mode. he drew monster before me
round 2- total junk game.

so hope this curse stops soon! cause WCQ starts next week! still not sure to play. best choices are inzects, heiratics or machina! suggestions pls!

What to side this format?

Side decking the proper card has played a major role in the players victory over his/her opponent. Lets discuss about some of the useful and obvious cards to side for this meta.

1) snowman eater: A staple in almost every side dexk. It can take out an annoying raggia made by your opponent in turn one(OCG does not have dolkka). It also stops gadget decks which have gained sudden popularity in the OCG. It also stops hero beat to a certain extent.

2)MAXX C: very important card in the TCG i suppose? In the ocg it is usually used against heiroglyphs. It stops your opponent from spamming the field unless they are sure of killing the opponent.

3) Chain disappearance: Another staple in the side deck. Its almost like without this your not a good player. It devastates inzectors, rabbits, heiroglyph to a certain extent. The best thing that can happen is when you go first game 2, you can chain diss oppo's card car D and you get to see their hand cause they are almost guaranteed to side away one copy. definitely a format defining card.

4)Mind crush: A very useful cards against heiroglyph and laval! and not to mention gadgets! gives you quick advantage when opponent in trying to go for the kill by adding cards from his deck.

5) threatening roar/ swift iron scare crow: A must in my opinion. you dont want to get otk-ed!

6)trap stun: good side deck choice for inzectors. reason is, opponent would rather chain diss your damsel than warning it. chain this to their chain diss and your good to go for the kill!(random rhyming words)

7)rivalry of warlord: good against laval and rabbits. but mainly for one type decks.

8)morphin jar 2: get this off against a heiroglyph deck and you win instantly! other than that its not so useful.

9) DD crow: a classic card that is always useful!

10) Macro cosmos: side this if your not playing a graveyard based deck or cards that require you to send cards to the graveyard. Burn the inzectors!

these are just my thoughts. Have any tech cards that you think will be good? post them below in the comments! also i missed out cards like overworked and really eternal rest. I only posted the most commonly used cards. well maybe except the morphin jar!!!!!! cya folks~

So machina topped a huge tourney in japan right after me feeling  unique about playing machina! hence machina got more popular among players in SG now!

match 1 vs old school hero!(00)
round 1- early gearframe and warning saved me from his sparks.  rushed with fortress ftw
round 2- he had no monster after i double torrential tribute so my gadgets just attacked for game.
felt really lively after playing with him as he was an old player and his deck was more based on skills. thats how ygo should be!

round 1- gadget and slow backrow control. Did not allow him to xyz that much cause of compulsary device.
round 2- He blade heart + excalibur + compuls.
round 3- He made blade heart, laval chain, shinning and emerald. All attacked and i all hail threat roar! next turn mind control laval chain and send fortress to grave and reborn it and summoned another fortress from hand. killed blade heart and emerald and made big eye to steal shinning for game!

match 3 vs inzector(00)
round 1- double veiler stop his inzectors and just slow gadget and frotress beatdown

Im in love with machina!

yes! I have been playing machina gadget recently and i realised how fun yugioh was after playing it.. its soo fun to play, especially when it gives you advantage but does not completely destroy your opponent. this makes the opponent less mad at you! with the release of gearganto X, the deck has become super fast and strong! with not so aggressive play style and also advantage is awesome! seriously, if you guys are looking for a strong deck other than inzectors, heiroglyph or rabbit then this is the next best deck! and it does not loose to the meta! its not some deck that does not stand a chance against the meta! trust me! play this and you will feel how yugioh should truly be like.

no rage comments thanks!
