Power Tool Dragon: Help me out here

[DragoonD-END]

We all know that Stardust Dragon,Black Rose Dragon,and Red Dragon Archfiend are highly splashable Synchros, but Power Tool Dragon on the other hand, isn't as splashable. His effects forces you to run a deck around it, which can be rather inconvenient. I want to run this bad boy in Morphtronic Deck, but i can't think of any good equipment spell or trap cards to throw in. Can anyone help a one-winged brotha out?

[hasakata]

Well, contrary to my opinions, it seems like equips aren't very useful.
My friend also runs a morphtroninc deck and he is dying to get this (K-Mart never seems to have the tin when he has money lol) The only equips he has in there is Morphtronic Repair Unit x3. Ax of Despair is a personal favorite of mine and I think if they get sent to the graveyard you can tribute a monster to return to the hand. I friend usually doesn't have a problem with keeping monster prescence and if you select 3 Axes you can possibly get all three (or maybe timing is an issue) so maybe only 2 (the one added to your hand and one from the graveyard) which brings PTD up to 4300! :0 also, he uses Armory Arm which PTD is a nice target for.

I hope this helped :)

[DragoonD-END]

Axes to me seem a lil meh.

Armed Changer is a must, since he can recover ANY monster card i play in that deck.
Double Tool D&C is also a good one. Functions like AOD, but better.

what about
Kunai With Chain
Metalmorph
????

[ShinyPuffy]

United We Stand.
Mage Power.
Double Tool C&D.
Armed Changer.
etc.

[Elliot Gale]

I just use him because he's a Machine...

If I happen to have an Armory Arm or my United We Stand on hand when he's around, so much the better, but I wouldn't want to build a deck around him since it costs you consistency, especially since most equips are just weak.

[DragoonD-END]

United We Stand.
Mage Power.
Double Tool C&D.
Armed Changer.
etc.

Oh yeah those too. but how many equips should i run?

[Elliot Gale]

5, 6 at most.

[Aarikku]

I think I run about 8. One of which is Horn of the Unicorn, though, so I get it back. :D

I really don't know about Armed Changer; discarding an Equip that could be used as an extra 800+ ATK and 'Get out of Destruction Free' card might not be worth it.

Has anyone tested Twin Swords of Flashing Light, Shooting Star Bow and/or Broken Bamboo Sword with Golden Bamboo Sword? Those were some ideas I had, but never bothered with. Not a lot of room in my deck.

[Elliot Gale]

Bamboo Swords are intriguing. Searchable draw power ftw.

[Angelicdiablo264]

Mage Power works great with my morph build.

And as stated United We Stand is basically a staple in every deck that centers on equip cards.

Additional Comment:

I run 5-6 and it plays well. Throw in Horn of the Unicorn to ensure you dont run out.

I also run The Transmigration Prophecy just in case I have PTD out and I am running out of equip spells.

[Morthoseth]

If you weren't running a Morphtronic deck, I was going to suggest Mark of the Rose would be a good equip card to retrieve but maybe that's more useful if you're running Arms Hole.

[Doctor K]

Check my two threads in the sig.

PTD is awesome with it's signature Double Tool. Megamorph is a versatile piece of work, especially when equipped to a Limiter boosted Power Tool Dragon (9200 ATK, and it saves itself at the end of the turn). Gilfer is fun to loop with.

[jnsayqua]

No love for Autonomous Action Unit? Any monster from your opponents grave for free is pretty good IMO.

Except for the part where it isnt "Free".

[wind1]

last i heard, d.d.r. is one of the best card to search for with power tool in a morph deck if you play the following cards.....

One for one + cyber valley + celfon + machine dup

[JDGloom]

Autonomous Action Unit is one of the most important cards to run with PTD, because it creates win scenarios while also giving you something to search that isn't "just another ATK boost."

I run 3 Double Tool, a United, and two Action Units right now. I've played Mage Powers and Malevolent Nuzzler in the past as well (Nuzzler's cool because you can keep returning it and reusing it to keep PTD from being destroyed, but it isn't as strong as the three cards in my current lineup).

Overall though, I don't think I'd play a Morphtronic deck if I wanted to run PTD competitively. The Black Salvo version really is superior.

Valley is an awful, awful card in Morphs. =(

[blue_yami_91]

Run this badass in Gigavise

[Elliot Gale]

If you can manage Giga + Copy in the early game, that is...

[MadMilling]

If you can manage Giga + Copy in the early game, that is...

Easiest thing in the world.

[blue_yami_91]

Lonefire--->Gigaplant
Equip Supervis
Revive Lonefire
Lonefire--->Copy Plant
Synch for Powertool.
Grab 2 Supervis and Mark of the Rose.
Revive Gigaplant through Supervis.
Equip Supervis 2.0.
Revivie Lonefire
Lonefire---->Nettles.
Synch for Stardust
Revive Gigaplant through Supervis

All I needed to do was to draw Lonefire and Supervis(both of which are super searchable)
and I end with

Powertool, Stardust, Gigaplant

[Elliot Gale]

I certainly hope you're running 3 Supervise AND 3 Mark, otherwise Power Tool's presence is pretty much wasted, especially since he's not compatible with either of the cards himself.

I'm running 3 Supervise, 2 Mark, 1 DDR

[drzero7]

I perfer United We Stand over DDR.

[ssj_duelist]

I prefer Big bang Shot if you run the super rare from the deck.

[DragoonD-END]

JDGloom is definitely on to something with
Autonomous Action Unit x2
Double Tool D&C x3
United We Stand

I was also cosidering using Broken Bamboo Swords with Golden Bamboo Swords for great synergy.

I also thought about adding in Big Bang Shot and Release Restraint Wave. That would make for an excellent combo

But right now, Double Tool D&C is a go. As for the other equips i'm just gonna have to do some playtesting.

[Thurge]

I know the equip doesn't do anything until destroyed but smoke grenade of the bandit might be worth considering.

I have tested out Release Restraint Wave and it works brilliantly in my Morphtronic build.

Now THAT is an old-school equip. I haven't seen that in years.

also think about rod of silence kayest, gravity axe, or even metal silver/raregold armor as you will want to protect your other monsters on the field using the "invincible" powertools

Additional Comment:

kills power tools when he uses his effect (removal)

Additional Comment:

doesn't anyone remember Ekibyo Drakmord at all?
that should have been one of the first you grabbed
if running power tools, run mist body; basically forces your opponent to use removal and waste it before power tools dies, it combos quite nicely with the double tool + works well for weak morphtronics
ever thought about hidden book of spell (cheap and effective)? i run two
all in all, the new warrior structure deck only helps power tools (arms hole, etc.)

I can do all that with Hidden Armory and not have a powertool that can't use his anti destruction effect
