Harpie Girl does power up HPBD but not much. It's not as easy to get it out along with 2 Harpie Ladies as it is to get out 3 Harpie Ladies.

Also, now that SD8 is out, put in Hysteric Party. It's the best card for getting out a bunch of Harpies at once.

Aqua Chorus is a mediocre card and wouldn't do much in this deck. I only use four monsters in this deck that have the same name: Magical Merchant, Harpie Lady, Harpie Lady Sisters, Flying Kamakiri.

And "yes", I do have three "Elegant Egotist" loaded into this deck. 75% of the time it's not as bad of a top deck as people would think, especially with Pot of Avarice loading my Harpie's back into the deck. :grin:

Actually she can at least be searched out by Sangan or Flying Kamakiri. Not only that but she makes a great choice for using Creature Swap. :grin: Or as a bluff card for Morphing Jar, Sangan, Flying Kamakiri, etc. etc.

And yes, I have loaded in one Hysteric Party and sidedecked the other. :grin:

How about Garuda the Wind Spirit? 1600 attack, remove 1 wind to sp summon, wind (Rising Air current, Birdman Joe, HL1), Winged Beast (HH Ground, Icarus Attack). In my harpie's deck i'm using 2 of them and 3 Slate Warriors.

here's my suggestions

- 1 Harpie Girl
- 1 Magical Merchant
- 1 Harpie lady 1
- 1 Mophing Jar
- 1 Birdface
- 1 Elegant Egotist
- 2 Harpie's hunting ground
- 1 Icarus Attack
- 1 Dust Tornados

Reasonings: There is absolutely nothing wrong with morphing jar, but it takes up room and can be a bit slow.Side deck it for now. I see what your trying to do, but you forget the key thing about harpie decks. In the end, you only have 3 harpie ladies. You have to get to them as fast as you can without tripping over yourself. You also have to remember that at heart, this Has to be a wind deck so you can have some meat and support for the harpies. With that in mind, Birdface can go to 1. There is always that oft chance that you'll pull a harpie before you pull him. he's more of an "in case" card that can hold his own if need be.

In your attempt to try to dump harpies and recycle them with PoA, you failed to do the one thing that was required for this combo; go heavy on the monsters. 16 Monsters, 2 of which are magical merchant will mean that this deck will fail to do what it needs to do. take one out.

Think about this, is it worth your time to stress of a field spell that increases attack or lets you destrou monsters when you can use normal spells that do the same thing only better? you'll find that HHG is not crucial.

too many Icarus Attack. take one out.

2 Dust Tornados is more than enough. take on out.

too many elegant egotists. take one out. they can lead to a very bad topdeck.
the rest of the cards are either too weak or too much for this deck to do. here are my fixes

+ 1 Cyber Harpie( purely for her topdeck potential)
+ 2 Dark Ptera( its wind support and its a new sinister serpen like effect that can take advantage of cards that require you to dump it fromt he field. )
+ 1 Flying Kamikiri #1 (Deck thinner, and gives you more PoA fuel. run 3)
+ 2 Slate Warrior (you may not like me suggesting such an obvious choice, but the fact remains that he's muscle you need in this deck.)
+ 1 Sasuke Samurai (here me out. He's the Mystic swordsman LV2 to wind decks and he's seachable. I say run him for that tool box effect.)
+ 1 Rush Recklessly ( a pair of these will go a long way. RAC has nothing on this)
+ 1 Card Destruction.( A faster Morphing Jar. nuff said)
+ 2 Giant Trunade/Nobleman of extermination (its your choice with these. You can go for temporary mass removal, or a permant deck thinner. both are useful in their own right.)

thats all I got.

+1 airknight. TWENTY LETTERS

Pretty nice deck Harpy Hunter. Here are my suggestions:

- Birdface
+ Harpie's Brother

I have never really liked Birdface, Harpie's Brother is like Cyber, but without swarm support :).

- Elogant Egotist
+ Smashing Ground

3 EEs are too much.... overkill! You can only get 6 monsters, so why 3? I would recommend taking out another Harpie Sisters. But that is up to you. Smashing Ground helps take down troublesome monsters.

- Icarus Attack x1
- Dust Tornado x1
+ Bottomless Trap Hole x1
+ Torrential Tribute

3 Icarus Attacks is again... overkill! You want to be attacking, not tributing. 3 Dust Tornadoes are good, but overkill! Bottomless helps along with TT. And no, it doesnt off-balance swarm, as others might think.

Good work, return the favor? Link in sig.

-Shane

I actually agreed with you on this.. And Morphing Jar is resting peacefully in the sidedeck. Along with Magical Merchant, because often times they moved slowly. Also today in a MATCH against my brother I realized that only one Birdface helped in the end. The other was just a 1600 ATK/DEF...

Both have been sidedecked. As well as Pot of Avarice. There's no need to have it sit there with out it's fellow insect friend...

HHG increases ATK/DEF and Destroys a S/T on the field. :grin:
Three Icarus Attacks haven't led to my downfall yet. They've actually helped out a great deal. Two Icarus Attacks never came. With three Icarus Attacks however, I realized that 3 Dust Tornadoes were not needed.

Funny story.. My brother removed all my Harpie's from play with his Sorceror so I had one useless draw of Elegant Egotist... the other never came. But that useless draw was a good bluff card which led him to waste a card...

+ One Cyber Harpie has gotten me far...
+ The thing I don't like about Dark Ptera is the fact that it's a Dinosaur-type... the only way it's going to land it's return effect is by sacking it for Swift Birdman - Joe. If it was a Winged-Beast though... that'd be a bit wicked...
+ I am going to hold off at two Kamikiri's for now. The other is sidedecked.
+ The Slate Warrior suggestion was actually something I was debating over, so I moved them from the side deck and maindecked them.
+ The only thing I don't like about Sasuke Samurai is the low attack points...
+ Rush Recklessly does help. But I am still deciding on it...
+ I took your Card Destruction suggestion. :grin:
+ Giant Trunade is sidedecked.

Thank you very much Plague for your suggestions. I appreciate it.

What in the world does Airknight Parshath have to do with this deck??? N-O-T-H-I-N-G. :tired:

Yeaaahhh.. I am not looking for a pure Wind Deck.. :ermm:
But I do appreciate the decklist suggestion. :grin: Incase I ever want to run a WIND (not Harpie) theme..

Yeahp. Already done. =]

Elegant Egotist in trips hasn't been a problem for me yet... Harpie Lady Sisters has always been there for me.. (even when I didn't need them : topdecked :sleep: haha.)

Again... Icarus Attack in threes has not hurt my deck yet. The only results I've received from them are the destruction of my opponents card(s). It all depends on how one runs Icarus Attack. I've seen some people use Icarus Attack for no reason but to gain a one-turn advantage over the opponent... Foolishness...

1 Dust Tornado has been dropped, but not for BTH or TT.

Thank you as well for the suggestions and help.



I shall be tending to the decks of everyone else as well. :grin:


Keep the advice coming.

Hey I run a Harpie deck too :D. It would be so fun if someone could win 1st place national with a Harpie deck, lol... maybe some day ;).

Anyways so far as your deck, I like it a little bit different from mine, but when the ban list from september is active you're gonna have to take out:

- Snatch Steal (banned :p)
- Nobleman of crossout (dropped to 1)

Instead add:

+ Lightning vortex (you have to have something if you ever want to clear the field from your opponent)
+ Brain control (if you want it instead of snatch steal)

I know that Harpie's brother are in there for the theme, but maybe you could add like Winged sage falcos (100 attack weaker), but at least you get an effect. I don't know just trying to help a little bit.

Sorry if I wasn't of much help, not much to improve on your deck. Pretty good as it is. :)

i think this will be consistent (for a harpie deck)

jptan last time that i check u can only have 3 of any harpie.

as for the deck it looks ok but you should try some things like i personally dont like the hunting range. i think that it is a waist of space that u could be using for other things to give ur deck a helping hand like dd warriors or maybe with the new banned list a couple of exiled forces, or even another bird face. you got to remeber that this deck needs alot of monsters because you really dont want to top deck a harpie ladies sisters in a tight spot. another thing that i don't really understand is y u have the harpie's brother, you could use Enraged Battle Oxe instead. i would also get rid of the harpie girl and put in a cyber harpie. another thing that i saw that u forgot was the extasy sparks this thing could make up for the loss of the hunting ground. and pot of averist also will help out a great deal. as for the traps you are also missing alot of things that that area. 2 icaris attacks work just fine and you also need RoD and Mirror Force, and Torrential.

I run this deck as my main deck i know that its kind of hard to play but i have been playing it since the harpies first came out and if u want my build for the deck all that you have to do is ask and i will be more then happy to give it to you. just try out what i said and you should have that hard of time figuring out what u want to do with it.

Well, there is no Nationals going on in San Diego... but there is a Regionals coming up. Hopefully this deck will fare. Oh! I have updated the decklist.

Harpie's Brother is in there solely for the 1800 ATK. Not only that, but comboes with Swift Birdman Joe (allows him to get ability), Icarus Attack friendly, gains power from Harpie Lady 1 & HHG.

Winged Sage Falcos does all this and more, but his attack is only 1700. Plus his effect doesn't come in too handy all that often.

I will check out your decklist though. Thanks for the feedback!

Go to the Upperdeck Yu-Gi-Oh TCG card rulings page, read the OFFICIAL rulings on Harpie Lady, and THEN make suggestions... :tired:

This is a Harpie Lady/Wind deck. If I wanted to be a conformist I'd drop Harpie's completely and jump onto the bandwagon... In other words, I'll never add in cards that don't support the deck theme.

Check out the updates recently made.
- 1 Harpie Lady Sisters
+ 1 Slate Warrior

Harpie's Brother = 1800 ATK/WIND/WINGED BEAST
Works well with: Harpie Lady 1, Swift Birdman of Gale - Joe, Harpie's Hunting Ground (powerup), Icarus Attack.

The most Enraged Battle Ox is gonna do is pull off one or two attacks (if lucky). Sure it gives my Winged wonders the ability to pierce through defenses, but it gains no powerups, doesn't give Joe is Giant Trunade ability, and doesn't allow me to use Icarus Attack. Plus it's only 1700 ATK. Maybe if this was a Harpie Phoenix deck then I could see using it... But for now, no.

Go to the Upperdeck Yu-Gi-Oh TCG card rulings page, read the OFFICIAL rulings on Harpie Lady...

I did not forget Triangle Ecstasy Spark... I chose not to include it. With only running 1 (sometimes 2) Harpie Lady Sisters, the chance of drawing Triangle Ecstasy Spark while having Harpie Lady Sisters on the field is slim to none. Even then, what is stopping the opponent from chaining Magic Drain, Waboku, Shadow Spell, Threatening Roar, Spellbinding Circle, Compulsory Evacuation Device, Magic Jammer, Solemn Judgment, etc... Namely Waboku/Threatening Roar. Then that's a card wasted.

Pot of Avarice doesn't help out in this deck anymore. It's lost it's power in this deck.

Not EVERY deck needs Mirror Force, Torrential Tribute, Ring of Destruction (even though I use it in this deck. :p ), and every other card that "typical" players deem "staple"...

Two "Icarus Attack" does not work fine, in this deck. Maybe in other "Harpie" or "Wind/Winged Beast" builds... I find three to work much better. My deck is loaded with Winged wonders, perfect for my Icarus Attack.

Actually you run, your deck as your main deck. :laugh: If you ran my deck then what would be the point in fixing it as we would have the exact same cards... :ermm:


Actually the "Harpie Lady" deck is not hard to play. Maybe for you it is, but I have had no problem running one. I've been playing Harpie's since they were first released in Metal Raiders. I still have my original Harpie Lady card. Not only that, but I have always ran a Harpie Lady deck. No matter what other decks I may have built..

No thanks. :grin: But thanks for the offer.


Anybody else care to r/f this deck??? :classic:
Regionals are on the 16th of September!!! :knockedou

im going to have to agree with scapegoatboy. You need to add another Birdface into this deck. I like how this deck looks and i would think it may run smooth. I just dont like how you are depending on so many cards to help the others. This deck has to be a combo deck but it so dependent on other cards to do its effect. I would also recomend adding in 2 air currents and -1 hunting ground.

THE SWARM FROM THE GRAVE

Rising Air Current isn't a bad idea since Tsukuyomi is gone, but I have that sidedecked. The only dependent cards really is Harpie's Pet Baby Dragon, Harpie Lady Sisters, and Swift Birdman of Gale - Joe. Birdface, in a way, is dependant too. How? On Harpie Lady being in the deck.. Without there being a Harpie Lady in the deck, she's just a 1600. One Birdface has gotten me far.
