Normally I can do pretty good at making decks, and I saw Ghostricks when they were first announced and they seemed really cool, and I was looking forward to them. But now I can't even get them to work. Am I just doing bad at building them or are they just that bad?




is my deck. Any suggestions?

Having more than just ghostrick monsters would be a start. I personally haven't ran them myself; I tried once but like you I couldn't get the build right/stopped caring enough to. For starters though throwing in more monsters that work off of being able to flip themselves back into face-down defense position (des lacooda, guardian sphinx, golem sentry, etc) would be really good and trolly for your opponent. Not only that, but if you try out shifting shadows you can rearrange all of them so if your opponent wants to get rid of one and you have multiple on the field it makes their life a lot more complicated. I don't have a lot of input though. I've only ran up against these like 5 times before and those seem to be general methods they all have going on in their decks

Ghostricks are generally slow and not a fast deck, so my suggestion to you is to adapt and play cards that adjust to this style of slow control and what not. Like Pot of Duality and a lot more of control cards.

You dont ghostrick, ghostrick you. 

I happen to know how to build em . Most people dont like dueling em oddly enough. They can do wonders however. I beat mermails, e-drags, evilswarms with them . I cant beat prophecy though  those things 2 hard.
