Okay, instead of my CCCC deck I'm thinking of using this Zombie deck for Regionals:

-Monster- 20
1|Dcr|Vampire Lord
1|Dcr|Despair from the Dark <---tribute overkill?
1|Lod|Patrician of Darkness
2|Ioc|Ryu Kokki
3|Pgd|Pyramid Turtle
3|Pgd|Spirit Reaper
2|Dcr|Fear from the Dark <---anti hand d.
2|Ast|Regenerating Mummy <---ditto
1|Mfc|Breaker The Magical Warrior
1|Tp4|Morphing Jar <---hand replenishment and works with BoL
1|Sdd|Sinister Serpent
1|Mfc|Tribe-Infecting Virus
1|Mfc|Magical Scientist

-Spell- 18

1|Mrl|Snatch Steal
1|Psv|Premature Burial
1|Mrd|Change of Heart
1|Ast|Enemy Controller <---anti Gorilla, among many other uses
3|Pgd|Book of Life
1|Pgd|Call of the Mummy <---if Despair goes, so would this I think
2|Mrd|Tribute to The Doomed <---perfectly themed & useful
1|Psv|Nobleman of Crossout
1|Mrl|Mystical Space Typhoon
1|Mrd|Heavy Storm
1|Mrl|Painful Choice
1|Sdy|Card Destruction <--- combo's extraordinarily well with BoL!
1|Lob|Pot of Greed
1|Pgd|Book of Moon
1|Pgd|Metamorphosis <---Morph Vamp/PoD and then BoL 'em back! :)

-Trap- 6
1|Psv|Call Of The Haunted
1|Lon|Torrential Tribute
1|Pgd|Ring of Destruction
1|Mrd|Magic Jammer
1|Dcr|Sakuretsu Armor - perhaps Raigeki Break w/MoN here instead? LMK
1|Psv|Magic Drain

MAINDECK = 44

-Fusion Deck- 15
3|Lod|Ryu Senshi
3|Lod|Dark Balter the Terrible
3|Dcr|Dark Flare Knight
3|Psv|Thousand-Eyes Restrict
3|Rds|Dark Blade the Dragon Knight
...etc.

-SIDE DECK- 15
1|Bpt|Jinzo
3|Wc4|Kinetic Soldier
1|Lod|Fiber jar
1|Psv|Nobleman of Crossout
1|Sdj|Scapegoat
1|???| any ideas?
1|Psv|Nobleman of Extermination <---anti-burn
1|Psv|Cold Wave <---anti-burn
2|Sod|Hallowed Life Barrier <---anti-burn
2|Rds|Pikeru's Circle of Enchantment <---anti-burn
1|Rds|Divine Wrath

Hand D. stuff I took out:

1|Pgd|Don Zaloog
1|Mrl|The Forceful Sentry
1|Mrl|Confiscation
2|Lod|Drop Off

As you can see, I tried changing it from Hand D./Control to more field domination/swarmage to go with the true nature of the Zombie archetype. I've tested it a couple times with YVD now and beat a VERY tough CCCC with it. My main weakness with this deck is burn & Gravekeepers, so my sidedeck is geared towards that...

In the meantime, I'd really appreciate some helpful input. My only condition is that you refrain from telling me I have too many mons/cards in this deck. Also, stickiing to the theme is very important to me.

I doubt if I'll use the new mon from the new upcoming structure deck 'cause RFG-ing Vampire Lord seems like blasphemy IMO ;)

Alrighty then, R/F & give me your opinion if you think this can compete against the CCCC I'll be (more than likely) facing.

Thanks,
DJ

despair from the dark is a tribute killer but it is really good if you can get it discarded from your hand to the graveyard. nice zombie deck 8/10.

C'mon now, I need better input than that...if you're only giving me an 8/10 then don't be lazy, fix me! :)

C'mon guys...how hard is it?
