Hate Dojo at 3 and Elder at 3. You don't need 3 Elder. 2 is fine.

I might have to try that out, good buddy.

The Six Sam that you target can't be destroyed by battle if you ditch Squire, but your opponent can still kill main phase 2 with Smashing Ground and those others.

Actually if you Monster Reborn Shien's Squire and you have Gateway out you won't be able to add any counters to Gateway because Shien's Squire isn't a "Six Samurai" monster and you can only put counters on Gateway when you Normal or Special a "Six Samurai" Monster.

God Da--mn It I Fuc---king Cheated Without Trying!!!!!!

But you could have removed the 2 counters on Gateway that you had already and boosted up Shadow of the Six's attack to 3000.

Additional Comment:

I'm not sure about the 2 Macro Cosmos in the side deck.

Lol that reminds me, I think I did the same thing by adding a counter when summoning Squire. Worst part was, that counter led to me summoning Barkion, Beast, Shien, and Catastor in on that same turn, haha.

I recommend taking out Kageki or Magatama depending on your meta, and putting in another Dojo.

I don't like DOJO at 3. Three is overkill.

Additional Comment:

Bump for the day.

[thor'shammer]

from recent testing, i have taken out DEST and 1 kagemusha. haven't ever needed 3 kage, and he is actually a dead draw many times. DEST is good when used, in the right scenario, but can be dead, and compulsary evac device has been working for me.

so i would:

-1 kage
-1 DEST

+2 CeD

turn 1 shi en + 2 defensive traps (or nat beast + defensive traps) is good game

I still love 3 Kagemusha.

Depending on your meta, I would add in Electric Virus or Puppet Plant.


Thats all I can think of. Good job.

I might have to. Just got to find out what to take out.

Siding a Dark Hole is a bit wierd. I think by the end of the month a sided super poly will do you very well. But extra deck will be super tight :/

Additional Comment:

And with 4 effect negations mained you *might* be able to drop veiler for a virus or plant. Its too hard of a desvision but i think Dark Hole is really misplaced lol

You really don't want to main Dark Hole in this deck. Unlike other decks, this deck can not come back from a Dark Hole.

Additional Comment:

Small update to the main deck.

Bump for the day. Let me know what you think.

[Smoking_Gyrados]

Hey bro I've been testing mine at locals all day,Nd I think -1 Zangi,+1 Spirit is a good idea.

Not with Asceticism of the Six Samurai in the deck. With Asceticism in the deck, Zanji has almost become a staple because it's an Asceticism target for Kizan and vice versa.

[Smoking_Gyrados]

Yeah good point....Hmmmmm......spirit was testing really good today tho.....

I cut Hand of the Six Samurai for it. Hand was bad for me.

[lazy4]

Here's my Six Sam deck, its very similar!

http://www.pojo.biz/board/showthread.php?t=1063366

I'm looking for comments/critiques myself.

I'm trying to maindeck Spirit (have it in side atm, lol) as well but I'm not sure what to cut, I've found Hand pretty useful.

I'm also maining Irou to provide a way to Asceticism for Enishi.

How strong has Fiendish Chain been for you? I'm looking to get my hands on a couple copies to atleast sidedeck.
