Power of a Demon God: Devil's Dread-Root Deck

[OkageRyuu]

Ok, here's my shot at a Devil's Dread-Root deck. I'm not sure how good it'd be in an actual duel but I hope it's good. It focuses around getting 3 monsters to sacrifice for DD-R.

This card can't be Special Summoned. This card can only be Normal Summoned by offering 3 monsters as a Tribute. While this card is face up on the field, reduce the attack and defence of all other monsters by half.

Glanced over at the latest post on DMComet. They seem to think the effect reduces the attack of all other monsters on YOUR side of the field by half, NOT the opponents. Not sure if they're right, but thought you should know

Hmph. But in Yu-Gi-Oh! R, Tenma's Dread-Root decreased the attack of Yugi's Arkana Swordsman by half. Not following the manga? PREPOSTEROUS. :P

New decktype.

Reccomendation is Quick Squirrel.

Marshmallow is 1 per deck as of March 1. Fix it or this deck is illegal.

Cross Soul is ok, but it gives the opponent time to get Dreadroot with Monster Removal. You do NOT want that. A Third Devil's Sanctuary can cover.

Packing in 2 Book of Life with only 4-5 Zombies doesn't seem smart to me.

More Zoma would seem good. Book of Life can't ressurect it, but it's still one of the best Trap Monsters out there.

Hmm ... well if that deck works correctly. DD-R should be the only monster on my side of the field. I do hope it works for all monsters instead of just mine .. ._.

Gah, I forgot about Marshmallow. .. I'll fix it right away. ^^; Thanks.

And I forgot about Book of Life being only for Undead monsters.. ._. I'll remove them for 2 more Zoma.

I'll also remove the 2 Cross Soul for 1 more Devil's Sanctuary and a Quick Squirrel. Then remove Marshmallow for another Quick Squirrel. Possibly remove a Double Ghost for a 3rd Squirrel too. Thank you. :)

-1 Devil's Dread Rootx1
+ Double Ghoston

3 DD-R is way to much

Maybe Metal Reflect Slime? Might work well as a bigger stall (assuming your opponent isn't running Smashing Ground)

You have a point there. I think the Death Reversals do good if it dies.

Hrm ... that could work too but what to take out for it... maybe a Soul-Hunting Spirit?

I used Trap Monsters in my Tenma deck(Care to take a look)

they coild help you out with the summoning :D

I could drop the Marshmallow for a Metal Reflect Slime but I've got Imperial Control and Android Psycho Shocker ... they could prove a problem for the Trap Monsters.

I did see your deck. :D It looks pretty good. I kinda just made this one up this morning while running on an hour of sleep so I'm not sure how playable it'd be.. yours looks more playable than mine to be truthful.. ^^;
