I think this might be better off in the stategy thread, but I digress, so back on topic.

I'd say anything that would send a gadget to the top of his deck would really hurt this deck since drawing multiple gadgets is harmful to the stragety. So go with legendary juditsu master or raiza.

Another stragety would be to negate the summoning of thoes gadgets with counter traps, of course, you'll need something like twister x 3 to ensure you can use your traps. Pulling the rug and solemn judgement come to mind, maby even use a skill drain deck.

Another weakness to this deck is that it is more relient on its spells than any other deck I normally see, so spell cancelor (with protection from cyber dragon), sky scourge invincil, dark balter the terrible, silent swordsman lv5 (what I use :D ) and horus.

^ I think he means FOR the deck, not to counter it. Unless I'm wrong, in which case, apologies. =)

oops, my bad. Now to go find some Caffeine...

What was side decked in this gadget deck when it won Europe?

[treeborn_frog]

hmm, I'm shocked he had/has no limiter maindecked.
1x Limiter Removal
1x Futre Fusion
1x Overload Fusion
2x Solemn Judgment
2x Pulling The Rug
1x D.D. Crow
2x Drillroid
1x Waboku
2x Threatining Roar
2x Des Wombat

I don't think limiter was mained because this deck is suppose to pace itself, not be all out agressive (execpt mabey when he side decked).

possible side deck:
pulling the rug x 3
d.d. crow x 3
threatening roar x 2
curse seal of the forbiddon spell x 2
drillroid x 3
solemn judgement x 2

[Drazen]

x3 Rug
x3 Twister

And run Zombie / Phoenix with heavy removal (for the banishers). GG against that build, as well as 13-Gauge, Perfect Circle (you should see the look on someone's face when they just realized that their mega-rare Crush Card Virus just hit 2 V lords and a Phoenix, only to have you draw into another V.Lord / Phoenix), Big City, Demise OTK and a whole host of other T1 decks.

;) I know what Joe sidedecked at European's as i played him the night before and he had the right idea, just drew poorly in the main event =(

[-dysFUNKtional~]

lol... the reasoning for no limiter in this thread is so lol worthy...

joe plays cards that are going to be useful in his deck ALL of the time. not SOME of the time.

[emuron]

Joe ruined my Big City deck. Well I say ruined but it was pretty bad before hand.

Then James proceeded to smack me deck in the face when Joe ruined said deck... dam Stansted Airport.

Your deck was absolutely horrific, and I made it good. It's not my fault you made around about 1 misplay per turn.

And to the rest of you, you're all way off.

[fafnir97]

Pretty much Horus FTW. or Zombies/Phoenix if you have your own Shrinks.

Lol Smashd

Chill Man Chill, its was a joke. I like some of the changes that you made, as for the misplays... well it was like 1/2/3am

Anyway you get home okay? (well obv as your here, but any intresting side adventures like James?)
