This was my idea for a Halloween deck in the event we have that tournament that was mentioned not too long ago. I've tested this numerous times but I feel that it still has it's flaws. I wanted to have a decent supply of monsters for the milling effects of cards like magical merchant but I end up opening with hands that consist of like 2 wightmares, 2 skull servants, and a lightsworn. It has it's consistencies, but I just feel it could go a lot better. To this day I have not faced a wight deck that wasn't complete trash so I want to try and change that. At the very least, make skull servant a force to be reckoned with. Any suggestions? What do you guys think would work the best: (1) More emphasis on monsters like grepher, lumina, and zombie master, (2) more monsters in general to make merchants milling power flow more smoothly, or (3) take out merchant, grepher, and zombie master to throw in more support spells.

I made a similar deck last year for an tournament. Funny when it wins against evilswarms, Skull servant King runs over 2 Ophion and 1 Bahamut. https://i.imgur.com/vIPmg0q.png

Also how about a BLS?

i dueled a rather fearsome verson of these what about mystic piper

It's definitely up for consideration. I need to think of a way to run the deck more efficiently though. It works awesome and everything, but when you open up with almost a full hand of wight monsters it sucks. But at the same time you need a decent monster base for merchant to get a good mill ;-; I'm thinking almost tossing one merchant for another needle nest.

On the other hand, a mystic piper could work nicely if I took out a few higher level monsters like master and grepher. I'd be afraid though that I'd draw into all of my wights more than I do already :c

A few ideas:
More Duality, because you need consistency.
Armageddon Knight, to pitch things when Grepher isn't working out, as you don't always have a Dark in your hand that you really want to discard.
Summoner Monk, works great with Grepher and Armageddon to give you a quick discard/mill and to make Lavalval Chain.
Possibly even a BLS to make the best use of those Lightsworns.

I ran it again a few times and I think I made it slightly better. I took a more lightsworn approach to this and added a lumina and two card troopers to switch out the zombie master and grepher. With a decrease of dark monsters, I took out allure (I don't always get a wightmare to my hand to bring back any skulls I banish) and but added in a BLS and another duality. The feedback I'm getting helped a bit. Here's what we've got so far:



Think it looks better? Anything else that you think could be improved in any way?

sixth sense would work it improves any deck espicially graveyard reliant ones

Sixth Sense, oh god. Thing is, you don't want to draw 5 cards and then be sitting on 3 Vanillas an several other dead cards that are more usefull in the graveyard. So, if you were to use that, maybe add Grepher back in to pitch monsters.
Also, now that you are running a bigger Lightsworn engine, maybe drop the Merchants? Not sure on how helpfull they are and if that extra milling is that necessary.

So the rumors of bringing back sixth sense are really true? Jesus christ. I don't know what type of good they possibly think bringing back that is going to do. They may as well bring back last turn if they're going to pull something this stupid. Sixth sense will become the most abused card on dueling network for the short time that it'll become limited, if they choose to.

Ranting aside though, I may take out a magical merchant or two and replace them with maybe hand destruction or dark world dealings. Just a little something to get rid of the extra vanilla skull servants/lady in wight in my hand. Nonetheless, I really like how this deck is turning out :3 I do like the merchant though. I can easily get a good 3-4 at any given time with it but with the addition of card trooper it's hard to say which would help more. At least when trooper dies I get a card. So idk :/

Not a Rumor. It was officially announced by Konami and the TCG banlist was adapted to it on October 4th. The only reason they are doing it, is to make people actually by Joey's World which has not a single good card in it. So, put in a tough to draw broken card everybody will want = Profit.

Damn they really thought this out. Hopefully the collection has some good cards to it. I'm personally hoping for some of the classic orichalcos cards from the series like air fortress, soldier revolt, gorlag, aid to the doomed, etc. Sadly though I don't see Konami smiling on me this time around

You'll get Harpies Phoenix Formation, Blue Flame Swordsman and Card of Last will (although, that card is not legal in ANY format) as first prints. The rest is most likely going to be re-prints, re-prints and more re-prints. Possibly new artworks here and therem though.

I heard about the those three cards and wasn't really impressed. For one, I don't like harpies at all. Two, flame swordsman is good for instant fusion and thats all. And three, why would you make it if it's not even legal to use? It's just like the legendary collection 1. We got god cards and then they sat there and were completely useless. I just have my fingers crossed that it's not ALL reprints, even though my gut is telling me to stop joking myself and accept it.

It actually is BLUE Flame Swordsman. Not the regular one. ;D

Oh wow I thought they were just gonna do some different art for flame swordsman. Honestly, that would possibly help me in my battlin' boxer deck. So that makes 2/~300 something cards that will actually be worth it. Woo hoo!
