![]() ![]() Cards like The Shallow Grave are horrible to open with, as it requires a monster in your opponent’s grave to even activate. The reason any other build of deck out other than Empty Jar does not work is because the rest are slow and inconsistent (for that matter, so is Empty Jar, just less so). Since Ophion is a deck, we keep Tsuk in the mainboard. Just remember that you cannot summon a second Malefic even with Skill Drain up, since the Malefic in hand is restricting its own summon (and Drain will not negate a Malefic in hand). As I consider the potential of Skill Drain with Fusilier (or even with Giant Kozaky, which can also be tributed for EEV), I am led to ponder: what else synergizes with effect negation and Virus cards? Malefics immediately come to mind. Let’s clear out the Empty Jar monsters for some beaters. Ideally, you’ll win games through Meklord Beat, though realistically, we need backup. It has so many unique characteristics, such as the powerful effect you’d expect from an Extra Deck monster, a level of one, a summon trigger that lets it drop in the Battle Phase and sneak in an attack, and for the purpose of this deck, enough attack to be tributed by either Deck Devastation or Eradicator Epidemic Virus. Meklord Emperor Wisel has always held my interest. Rather than go over the same deck that every Empty Jar player has run +/- a few cards, I’ll instead direct construction towards the rather unique idea of Virus control. Deck out has only one version that actually works: Empty Jar. Thus, we are to choose between two win conditions. show, when Crush Card Virus was first introduced, it destroyed nearly every card in Yugi’s deck. The Virus cards, while powerful, do not actually cause an opponent to deck out in any way. ![]() However, these two strategies have virtually zero synergy with one another. He also combines this with a strategy to wash the opponent’s hand free of cards with the Viruses. Thanks!Īaryn’s strategy with this build is to win by deck out. Use the deck lists in this article as an example if you’re unsure. We really appreciate it when you capitalize the names of cards in your lists and type them out fully – treat them like proper nouns. Konami has not officially ruled on this exact interaction, so this is the most reputable ruling available on the scenario.Īs always, send your deck ideas to the Deck Doctor fan page: Once the loop becomes infinite, however, All-Out Attacks is destroyed by game mechanics. However, with the above two cards, you can legally initiate a combo since an infinite loop is not certain (due to randomization of the deck and its unknown contents). ![]() Normally a player is prohibited from initiating an infinite loop. Perhaps the most unique situation I have encountered lately was on Monday, where I saw a player enact an infinite loop with Morphing Jar #2 and All-Out Attacks. (their summons are effects that begin a chain), and what happens when two players forget a mandatory effect from several turns ago (you continue play under accepted gamestate, unless the situation can be repaired). Other common issues include: whether Sphere negates Linde in the grave (a card that negates a monster it is targetting cannot negate it if the monster’s effect activates in grave), whether Dragon Rulers can be negated as if they were inherent summons by Solemn Judgment, Thunder King, etc. The single most common issue I come across while on call is STILL players thinking that MST negates the effect of its target. It’s been two weeks since I last shared stories about DN. ![]()
