What tech cards may make impact in major tourneys and why?

[kaibaman76]

I dont know why but I always like Majestic Mech-Ohka its good topdeck Magical Merchant is good if u use Pot of Avarice...Sand Moth might gets some play b/c of ppl using Exiled and Zaborgs plus Torrential

[Soul Shot]

I always teched two Wave-Motion Cannons, you'd be surprised how often you can pull some big damage with it, especially against Cyber Stein decks.

[NinjaStars]

sand moth, twin-headed behemoth, waboku, magic cylinder, ceasefire, and cyber dragon

[Alexander Anderson]

Stein. -_-

[Exiled]

The 4th thread based on tech in the new format

I'll just say Exiled Force and get back to my quality programming

[akiracage]

cyber dragon

Sure... oK;)

I don't know, I've been main decking a Mystic Wok, and a single mind crush and they have been working really well.

-TOonbakuraRyou

[WolfCypher]

I'm thinking Ceasefire and Magic Cylinder and most definitely Waboku. Waboku to stop OTK decks from...OTKing. And least not forget the rise in popularity of Vampire Lord and Phoenix, so BTH isn't going too far.

[Screaming.Mantis]

neo-panther and dice jar

[iced_metallica]

Wave Motion Cannons, Stealth Bird, Banisher Of The Radiance, Blast with Chain, Sand Moths, LeGendary Jujitsu Master, Um... Stein, I dunno, Something Against the meta and good on its own... Like D.D. Survivor ;)

[rarnom]

Hydrogeddons are intense. Especially with decree. mad field advantage.

[Axel]

Elemental Wildman.

[Kaiba's_lil_Mutt]

Last Will has been a pretty good tech for me.

With Exiled Force at 2 per deck I can use it's effect to clear the way then activate Last Will's effect to summon Don Zaloog, Spirit Reaper, Wildheart or even another Exiled right from my deck to gain uber advantage.

[CapitalG]

ceasefire (obviously not counting stein and last will), cause its a game ender against stein and with stein

[Warthog]

Wildheart and Ceasefire is seeing play by atleast me :/

[Warakia]

What is a tech?

A MISERABLE LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS!

[s0mbzorz]

Pot of Greedzorz obv.

[Warakia]

Pot of Greedzorz obv.
You're obviously not the banned user Sombra on another account.....

[nb_pod_fan]

yeah the whole point of tech cards are that they are secrets I was going to tech a card for the SA regional but someone else beat me to it. All i can say is it goes hand in hand with Gadgets and is a trap, and isnt Royal oppression. Thats enough hints. But its still a secret. Dont sink.

I'm Impressed nobody Quoted that before... Dracula on Castlevania Symphony of the Night...

"You Steal Mans Souls and make them Your Slaves"

Ultimate Offering is old tech where I play :D

[ATX(bRoKeN)]

Nimbles, Light -Hex- Fusions with Cyber Dragons, Overload, My Boday as a Shield, Magic Cylinders, Mind Crushes or Draining Shields in full out Stein decks =/

[Wake]

Naw, it's Royal Decree.

If you're not going to share your tech, then what's the purpose?


Let's see... Waboku is decent against all those Chimera and Stein decks.

Gyroid should be used more. Y'know? Only one Reaper...:mad:

[D.D. Sofa Guy]

Divine Sword Phoenix Blade. Why? With 3 vortex and everyone running warrior tool box - why not!? ;)

[Defense=Offense]

definitely 2 exiled forces and a last will, i know thats my tech of choice that will be added to every deck i make in this format

the synergy is just AMAZING!

[shaun_callen]

Hydrogeddon has been nearly amazing tech in my deck..with double controller and book, turning a bigger monster to def to allow a run over and a freebie 1600 beater..even worse with no back field and summoning Cyber first..take 3700 and I have 3 monsters in 1 turn w/o using premie/call?

[FiendSkillz]

Lol, use submarinoid. its soo funny to use and abuse.

[`Phenom]

Hydrogeddons are intense. Especially with decree. mad field advantage.
Decrees suck this format.

[Dascove]

Decrees suck this format.They do? They work wonderfully for me. To me it seems that Decree owns this format.

Jowls of Dark Demise and MBaaS.

[Azn_Boy]

Kycoo x2 :p and Banishers will be teched

this format, keeping the cards in your grave will be the key factor, helps to disrupt PoA, Ninjas, etc

[iced_metallica]

I really doubt Decrees Suck... People Expect For there not to be decrees anymore and start to use the Trap Trio which is maybe working but not that much... Specially Decree... Traps will increase, Decree will Rule!!!

[dub_hater]

Kycoo x2 :p and Banishers will be teched

this format, keeping the cards in your grave will be the key factor, helps to disrupt PoA, Ninjas, etc
hope so.

my hole deck is built round kepping cards from reaching the graveyard

[ATX(bRoKeN)]

decrees are far from sucking =/

[phlstar]

so brad has anyone stoped you lucksacking stein with injection fairy lily?

[topdeckerwalker]

Here's a little piece of tech a friend of mine came up with. Play Disappear. In case you don't know what it does. Choose one monster card from your opponents graveyard and remove it from the game. The it's tech is that you can chain to so many awesome cards. Stops the effect of premature, call, PoA, any card where you select monsters from the graveyard.

[Stewie Griffin]

Hydrogeddon, Moth, Jujitsu, Banisher, and stein, a lot of pretty cool stuff[ except stein]

SG

[burntonapike]

mind crush is going to be huge I think
sand moth is probably gonna see lots of play as well
possible banisher to counter rat control

i think mystic swordsman lv 2 and drilloid are going to be pretty big

[KaiserRyo777]

Cyber Dragon FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Yami no Nelson]

I was thinking about teching in Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin. Like the card, dig the quirky effect. Pretty good paired with a Cyber Dragon.

[NC Prodigy]

Asura Priest and Sand Moth. Also Tomatos and Apprentices are good this format with Swap.

[Copy Nin]

Des Feral Imp
Injection Fairy Lily
Legendary Jujitsu Master
Sand Moth
The Fiend Megacyber
Trap Hole

[Dgenerate_4Life]

Drop Off , Banisher of radiance and LAST WILL.....

[burntonapike]

how will des feral imp be tech?
just wondering

[RADMAN RB]

submarine roid may see a big effect imo....

[NinjaStars]

Sure... oK;)

I don't know, I've been main decking a Mystic Wok, and a single mind crush and they have been working really well.

And sarcasm slids through the ears of yet another member of pojo.

[CapitalG]

actually Lily seems to have picked up serious popularity I guess without chaos return people are have noticed, 3400 is nothing to play with . its searchable by 3 good things sangan , last will , and its 1400 element searcher (meaning its searchable by anything). I takes down anyt monster in competitive play, and if you hit someone directly you cut them off from stein and put them into your stein range. It also doesnt hurt you big time against traps like ring and cylinder. last its def is actually decent enough to stand against low monsters

I use it in my Dark World (my competitive and only deck) and I see it as a more safe mine stein.

[mirrorfreak16]

Last Will. W/2 Exiled this card will have major impact in the current meta, especially UDE/Konami didn't restrict or ban Stein.

[Minato Namikaze]

sand moth
injection
juitsu
widespread ruin (for some reason so many ppl are running cyber phoenix's and this is great against them)
kycoo (cause ppl are running POA's, zombies, premmy/call, and phoenix)

[Tasuku]

I've seen Reinforcements of the Army pop up a lot lately.

[ebonstorms]

i been using Jowls of Dark Demise and mystic wok from the start of this format and they work wonderful for a soul control deck, also threatening roar is great.

I also side in sand moths for people running exiled, zaborg, T.T., etc.

Seen people playing macros in my area now more too...so i side D.D. Dynomite...

[ShroomXIII]

at our tourneys we have seen cylinder, jujitsu master, sand moth, shrink, and blockmanFTW

[flclfanman]

malevolent catastrophe to murder macro =O

I need my graveyard :D

[Dead_Pool]

Old thread is old. Anyhoo, Shien in non-Samurai decks for a laugh.

[Cataclismic]

Spell Striker

-More or less free special summon
-RotA-able, which in turn feeds it's summoning cost
-Can be used with Warrior Returning, which again feeds it's summoning cost
-Lets me push for near-game safe in the knowledge I can go for game with a direct attack next turn
-Tribute bait that doesn't fall so much to D.D.Crow (like Treeborn Frog/Malicious), that's instant (unlike Treeborn Frog/Reaper/Marshmallon), doesn't require dumping/setting up (like Treeborn Frog/Malicious) and doesn't depend on your opponent's actions (like Brain Control/Soul Exchange (which render the Caius/Zaborg/Raiza in hand useless if opponent only has one card on the field))

[BEWDMaster]

well sicne tis broght back i mightas well comment on a new teck diea with all the dad decks aroudn i was hoping to see phantom of darkness do soem damage

[Iceflamemaster]

wow this is OLD niccee

uhh this format=needs better tech

i tech Anti-Spell Fragrance in Samurai (sided) Single-handedly got me t8 at regs with a generic sam deck

also, Transmigration Prophecy, why is this "out of style?
its superior to DD Crow vs DAD, because the darks become much slower back in the deck

[elementalherouser]

Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell (Negate D-Draw or Allure, it becomes a dead draw, there goes the whole engine)

Anti-Spell Fragrance (Again, having to set stuff like D-Draw, D-Fusion, and friends while you are running something like gadgets or SS really screws your opponent over)

Royal Oppression (This kills all the RFG stuff, DAD, DMoC, Disk Commander, Malicious, etc.)

Royal Decree (Bye Bye Magical Explosion)

Prohibition (very good, negate 1 single card like Grandmaster, DAD, D-Draw, Allure, Cyber Valley, Magical Explosion. No wonder they've never reprinted it. It's an amazingly underrated tech card)

Twister (This is useful at times.)

Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror (No DMoC effect, no Disk Commander Effect, no DAD effect, no malicious effect, no dasher effect, etc. etc.

[Ice_ghs]

Personally Sides i seen win the matches are Stuff Like
The Wind Barrier Statue.
Black Horn Of Even.
Anti Spell Fragrance
Stuff in my side deck has l won a Match because of Siding in a 1000 1000 Attack monster.WTF?
