What do you think? any ideas to make it better?

you'll never need more than one destroyer, though I see why you run tricky's to get rd of him and your dead tribute summons, but still, I'd drop them, one hanged man and one destroyer. main deck 2 breaker and two kycoo.

Also take out instant fusions and foolish burials for a spellbook of control and 2 traps like Torrential Tribute or Fiendish Chain.

Well done buiilding from zero.

My current formula...Mind you I swapped out the BTH's for Torrentials, was just to lazy to swap em around.

As a note...what we need is a monster or spellbook that reads

Spellbook of sun: Send from your hand or deck, one Prophecy monster that is level five or greater to the graveyard, add one spellbook card from your deck to your hand.

Mebbe kinda broken but id read dat book >>. That would make stuff like destroyer far more appealing

It looks solid, I think three strength is too many, I'd try to maindeck the kycoos by dropping Justice and Strength.

I just realized how badly a macro deck kills us....

Morphing Jar'd and Necroface'd my breakers. QQ

[Joenen]

summon priestess, banish a spellbook from your hand, and kill the darn thing.

It's how you get past Necrovalley too.

albeit you won't always have that out.

You aren't the only one. I forget that too. XD

My god guys that what makes Junon better than Hyperion. I would never forget that opinion.

Additional Comment:

I have no problems against macro. Only messes up veilers and Necronomicon (Life) which I run 1 of. And the deck should be siding D-fissures anyways.

Yes I'm an idiot. It's been documented. Because I made that mistake one-time against you spells and I admitted defeat too quickly on DN as a result when I actually had the winning hand. Because I forgot Junon's effect works with Books in the hand. XD

[Joenen]

Just between you guys and myself, I think we might be meta.

Not broken, just meta.

SHHHHHHH.

Additional Comment:

well, ok if there was a tier 1.5, we'd be it.

I mean it was a 3 match game, and let's jsut say opening 2 strength and 2 breakers I did not like.

If we can't start with Secrets/magician/crescent/Power, we....can't start...

Jeez..if you go into the single card disc..youd think crescent was the worst card evar!

Also...is destroyer really worth removing 1x JUnon for? I dunno...feels like without a reliable easy way to dump him, id rather always just see a Junon in hand.

I need help with my deck for the REDU sneak peek, any help will be greatly appreciated!

[blackfrostdragon]

Here's my build. http://imgur.com/3LDvi

I am so far finding Crescent to be very easy to use. I actually used it every time I drew it that turn. Batal unfortunately had to go as I needed to make room and with all the Spellbook searching and drawing, I did not need him. Another card I am falling out of favor of is Tragoedia. I have not used him as effectively as I thought I would have so I want to cut him. Any suggestions on that part?

[Joenen]

Am I the agent of the spellbooks rising or the downfall? Heh, welp, let's do this. No half hearted stuff. If they're gonna be used and or abused I might as well ride this out to the fullest!

It's our time to shine guys! (this might be the Umineko BGM talking lol)

I'm honestly not truly certain. His effect did save me one game, but i don't know if he's "really" that worth it. That being said, Priestess is easy to revive with spellbook of life so it's not "that" big a deal. I'm acctually considering testing mperor, though that's a bit....costly. yet if it works it's a +1 and if it doesn't it's a -0 given veiler. So meh.

Pre-ABYR I recommend gorz. and 3rd veiler. I can say with certainty that without Mind Control you will not be xyz summoning rank 3s so unless you go for the tour guide variant, drop them and add some missing synchros like arcanite and stardust/Scrap Dragon or w/e fts. You also will want number 11 but note an extra deck isn't really a "requirement" for this deck.

Perhaps trags for magicians?

or a third veiler and....another spellbook of life or something.

Or those kycoos that aren't maindecked because....???

I had the deck built originally before Chaos Dragons took over. So now it should make sense to play them lol.

Thanks for the reply.

[MkZhadow]

well, back from the testing, control is AWESOME, i always find myself getting that to my hand and using other spellbooks to make their monsters be banished... some screenshots for the peep:

Six samu with random great shogun and United We Stand...made me go WTF??

Sadly he didn't topdecked what he needed

the numbers until now are:
Rabbit: 1-1
Six samurai: 1-1
Laval: 1-1
Gusto: 2-0

I can't find inzektors or chaos dragons, maybe tomorrow i'll ask some friends to test against those decks

i think i might try to add a Mind Control...and maybe Book of Moon, but Mind Control would hurt a lot of people if used well.
anyways, any ideas for the side deck?

If their moves are made with deck as bad as this, then I think the world is safe. Two justice and 3 Temper all targeting the same three Priestesses? That's just bad maths.

It was a locals, I wouldn't expect a lot.

[Senahoy]

Glad to see that contrary to initial expectation, Crescent has been working well (at the expense of Batel it seems for some). In order to get around the empty graveyard, which route are you guys taking: by banishing with Destroyer and Control, or by returning it with Strength and Tower? The latter seems more reliable, how much of each is best? 2 of Strength and Tower?

[Hakkai]

Hopefully they do their normal thing and just them, and don't come here to learn the true secrets of the deck...

Another generic search spellbook would break Library. Ok, maybe not break, but 100% chance of getting what you want is very good.

As I said before, in my duel vs Geargia Machina I found the next format as derpy as this one.

Or Torrentials. They are great in this deck.

A searchable mill card that leads to another search is crazy. That and Power/Secrets would be a disturbing two card combination.

Someone make this a deck.

Too bad enchanter is only once per turn otherwise the deck would be great
Amores is pretty nice if he survives a turn. Crescent is amazing in this deck i have to say although i don't use it in my junon deck.

Trag just owned a chaos dragons player who doesn't know you can't add the banished monster if he used eclipse wyvern as the cost for darkflare.

Managed to discard about 3 cards in a turn (without Spell Power Grasp) and had enchanter and priestess on the field. Amores is pretty nice if he survives a turn. Crescent is amazing in this deck i have to say although i don't use it in my junon deck.

So you got all three enchanters on the field?
