TGIF + DandyWarrior Discussion

Thank God It's Friday.

Or something along those lines, not like I'm at uni or working during the week so my Fridays occur multiple times I guess. Though I will actually have to do some uni work soon. It's a horrible thought but unfortunately I can't get a degree in children's card games. I need to figure out how I can be a teacher on Duel Academy Island...though if I had to put up with kids like Jaden I dunno if it would be entirely worth it. Get your game on!

Speaking of game, assuming I'm at decent health, locals tomorrow! Yay! Hopefully I can get some of the stuff I need for my DandyWarrior/Yusei-Hime deck. Or that I pull something off the charts from my Turbo Packs. That would be sweet. Though I still need to get stuff of off Matt. Yes I'm talking to you, you Kaibaman wannabe. I still love you though.

I've been trying to get over this flu bite without too much drugging up but doesn't seem like it's working too well. At least I'm not dying or throwing up. That would suck big time. So I'll be happy I can still sleep as well as I normally do and that my stomach is still being friendly. It always was my favourite internal organ. Now I'm hungry.

While I decide what I'm gonna eat I feel like talking about DandyWarrior/Yusei-Hime and why I love the deck so much. It's not exactly a hard deck to build persei, but it isn't easy to use. I've seen different kids try and run it and they have all this weird crap in there and they end spamming their fields with so many tokens they can't do anything and it just annoys me a lil inside. Someone who has no idea what I'm talking about? It can beat ZombieSworn.

Credit goes to Jeff Jones for bringing this deck into media exposureness and Dubkdad1 on his YouTube channel for showing me this awesome decktype. It doesn't cost $500 and can still do some damage; and if you love Princess Yusei then this deck is almost as good as Yusei-Turbo, which is also another want as far as my deck building goes.

Firstly with Yusei-Hime (credit goes to Dubkdad1 for the pimp name) you obviously need to find the key cards for the deck and run those.
 - Quickdraw Synchron
 - Dandylion
 - The Warriors

These are the major key cards and are what make DandyWarrior what it is, obviously. Out of all the warriors Drill Warrior is most important. His effect begins the Drill Warrior Loop (creative name, I know). His effect is basically, you can half his attack and bypass monsters for a direct; along with being able to remove him from play by discarding a card, typically Dandylion to spawn two tokens. During your turn when he comes back again you get to grab that Dandylion or any monster from your grave and add it to your hand. Repeat and continue abuse.

Now for the other key cards.
 - Tytannial, Princess of Cammelias
 - Light and Darkness Dragon
 - Debris Dragon
 - Lonefire Blossom

Now comes in the boss monsters of the main deck. LADD and Tytannial. Some mistakes that people can make is playing LADD while Drill Warrior is on the field. If you have enough protection then I can see why you would do so but don't do it just because you can. You need to THINK. Tytannial + Dandy Plant Type Tokens = Targetting Protection. No Bottomless, No D.Prison. No MST. No Dust Tornado. No Targetting effects. Just tribute a token and it's negated. Fabulous card. Works great in GigaVise, which I am currently running, and works just as well in Yusei-Hime due to the Token Spamming.

Debris Dragon allows easy Stardust, easy Black Rose for nukes, easy Ancient Fairy for protection, easy Dragon for whatever reason you have. Bring back a level 2/3, since it can't sync with level 8s for a Stardust etc, and you could use your tokens as additional sync fodder.

Lonefire Blossom brings out Tytannial. Tytannial in your hand is horrible, you don't wanna tribute for her, you wanna use Lonefire and special summon her out. As a general rule, don't use Lonefire when you don't have protection tokens, you'll run into a Bottomless, D. Prison, Smashing, whatever your local meta likes best.

Lastly, a good set of techs. Monarchs work really well, as you generate a lot of tribute fodder. Caius and Raiza are obviously the better choices but whatever you can afford is good. Ryko and Super-Nimble Mega Hamster also are good to for destruction and milling, which in this meta isn't exactly a bad thing. Hamster grabs a Ryko from your deck and special summons it face-down, so you have an easy destruction and your opponent won't be too quick to attack it.

Well I better stop ranting for now and whatnot, once I get the deck fully assembled I'll be able to show it off on my YouTube channel or something, I dunno. I might do a full blog post on it later but that depends. Wish me luck for tomorrow and crap, I'll update again tomorrow.

Peace
