Hi, I just start playing yugioh again just not to long ago. I use to play back in the day (which really wasn't to long ago) when Blue-Eyes was on of the best monsters, that is if it every was a good 2 T 3000 attack nomral monster.

Anyways there is a load of new sets out now. I think I've missed a total of 5 sets at least, as I'm not up to speed to what works and what doesnt. I dont play tournaments at least not big ones. Basically there is a card shop they have yugioh tournaments and I would like to go to one and at least show some back bone. So my firend of mine who as been active in the game longer then me.

This deck is what I came up with, I bought some new cards and did some trading with my friend and this is a Dragon type deck I made which works around Red Eyes Darkness Dragon. Well it kind of does, I think the card is cool, in any case here is is.

I've notice that lots of people are staring to play more magic/trap cards then monsters. For me I've always build on 1:1 on monsters/spell/trap cards. I also have a problem of wanting to play more then 40 cards, I had a deck that was build around just my fav cards which was 50 cards and it beat down almost everyone I played in my cicrle. Sure I had bad games but did alright, this was before some of the more powerful combos and cards came out like this was 2001/2002. So I am totally rusty to building decks in yugioh at the moment and not having access to the cards to make the decks I want is a set back.

Oh before I forget this deck format is for advnace as thats what everyone plays mostly now.

Honestly, if I were to go the Dragon route I wouldn't really go the Lord Of D. way. He's not that great a card and is very vulnerable to attack. Since you have a lot of Dragon support and REBD I would suggest making a dragon deck based around him (if built right, they work pretty well). I know you have 3 Lord of D and 3 Flutes but the number of Tribute Monsters you have in here is JUST TOO MUCH!

Here's what I suggest

Monsters
-3 Blue-Eyes White Dragon
-3 Lord of D.
-1 Archfiend of Gilfer (just get rid of him...waste of card space)
-2 Armed Dragon LV3
-2 Armed Dragon LV5 (let's focus on REBD here...)
+1 Masked Dragon
+2 Luster Dragon (comes in Dragon's Roar Structure, 1900 ATK)
+2 Spear Dragon (TRAMPLE...and in a REBD....well you'll see...)
+3 Red Eyes B. Chick

Spells
-3 Flute of Summoning Dragon
+2 Inferno Fire Blast (BURN Damage for REBD)
+2 Smashing Ground

Traps
-2 Magic Jammer
-2 Burst Breath (nah...)
+1 Dragon's Rage (MORE TRAMPLE)
+2 Sakuretsu Armor (commons..easy to acquire)

So Change to something Like this:

Deck Total x40
Monsters x18
1x Red Eyes Darkness Dragon
3x Red Eyes Black Dragon
3x Red Eyes B. Chic
3x Masked Dragon
2x Luster Dragon
2x Spear Dragon (TRAMPLE)
1x DD Warrior Lady (not really necessary but you need removal...)
1x Twin-Headed Behemoth
1x Magician of Faith
1x Morphing Jar (he's a Rare now...try to get one..)

Spells x15
1x Swords of Revealing Light
1x Premature Burial
1x Scapegoat
1x Heavy Strom
1x Mystical Space Typhoon
2x Stamping Detruction (m/t removal and BURN DAMAGE)
1x Snatch Steal
2x Inferno Fire Blast (BURN DAMAGE)
1x Smashing Ground
1x Dark Hole
1x Nobleman of Crossout
2x My Body as a Shield (common card - Protect your Dragons!)

Traps x7
1x Call of the Haunted
1x Ceasefire (BURN DAMAGE)
1x Raigeki Break (either this or Dust Tornado..choose 1)
1x Magic Cylinder (BURN DAMAGE)
2x Sakuretsu Armor (common card - removal)
1x Dragon's Rage (TRAMPLE for ALL Dragons!)

And there you have it. A 40 card deck (what you prefer) made out of REBD cards that have a lot cards either accessible through the structure deck or are common cards. I would suggest going this route, but if you still want to go with the Flutes and Lord of D. let me know...and I will give you a take on what you to do about that....

Thanks for the reply, yeah I been working on this deck alot and I did come up with a different style deck which I was going to use the blue-eyes which so I took them out. I did work on a new version of the deck after looking threw what I have and what other have done with the same kind of style. I did like the Armed Dragon's as Lv5 I think personally is very good. The only reason Archfiend of Gilfer was in the deck was because of its discard effect which I used to the Lv5 Dragon. Here is the deck that I came up with and after reading your post and made some changes and this is what I have so far.

My first question on The Dragon's Bread is even know it stays on the feild, can I keep on discarding cards to it or is it one of those one time shots that ends up wasting a space? Its just a common (well the one I have is) so I'm not sure 100% how it works. Because I did run into a card that stay on the field a while back where it only worked once and just waste the slot. To why I'm asking.

As to the following cards:
My Body as a Shield
Sakuretsu Armor
Smashing Ground
DD Warrior Lady
Morphing Jar
Inferno Fire Blast ( think I saw it in my box but I'm not 100% sure)

I dont have any of them. The common ones I'm sure my friend may have them as I can ask him and I'm sure I can get them from him. The rare ones will be a bit harder to pick up as the yugioh players in my area are how you say asses when it comes to trading cards and when it comes to cards that are powerful they are even harder to trade with. Being that I dont have the equal cards to trade to them.

When it comes to the game I have the worest luck, I played other games before yugioh and others after worths so I dont have lots of money and truthfully they are totally ripping people off with the price of yugioh cards with the stock being well crap when you look at magic card stock and other card games, but anyways back on topic here...

I can see what I can do on some of the cards, I may get lucky you never know. All the stable cards that I do have are mostly commons (ones release in starter decks, etc. The others where lucky ### pack draws and I do mean lucky being that packs are like $5.00 a pack so I pay like maybe 1 or 2 packs every month when I do buy so yeah.. really bad luck on packs.

Being that DD Warrior Lady is a very useful card that I know lots of people use (as I've seen it in action) I thought it was banned from advance format (this deck is for advance) but I guess I could be wrong. In any case it will be the hardest to pick up for me.

I would really like to use Lord of D. as not only doesnt it allow me to play 2 free dragons (if I have a flute in hand) but it at least makes my opponet traget it before one of my other draongs unless its global or something. I was running the mystic tomato (to get out lord of d) but when I played it every time I played it (only ran 2) it got blow up out side of combat.

Another question I have is why drop Magic Jammer? I've notice that when I played my friend and looked at his decks, he even told me the same thing. No one seems to be playing magic jammer and 7 tools anymore. My old, old deck ran 3 of each and it did really well.

Thanks for your feedback I look forward to more comments and ideas for the deck. And I like to hear your idea on the lord of d and flute. Oh and yeah I know the deck had a lot of high level monsters in it but it did alright as most of the time I got lord of d out and drop a blue eyes and red eyes 3rd turn followed by getting armed dragon lv 5 out 5th and dropping other b-e and such killing monstes and then getting it back with call of the haunted and such.

Just in case you don't know their effects:

The Dark - Hex-Sealed Fusion

Set Flaming Eternity
Level 4
Group Rock
Type DARK
A / D 1000 / 1600
Rarity Common
Card Text You can substitute this card for any 1 Fusion-Material Monster. When you do this, the other Fusion-Material Monster(s) must be the correct one(s).
Tribute Fusion-Material Monsters on the field, including this card, to Special Summon 1 DARK Fusion Monster from your Fusion Deck.

King Dragun

Set Flaming Eternity
Level 7
Group Dragon/Fusion
Type DARK
A / D 2400 / 1100
Rarity Super Rare
Card Text Lord of D. + Divine Dragon Ragnarok
As long as this card remains face-up on the field, your opponent cannot target Dragon-Type monsters for the effect of a Spell, Trap, or Monster Card. Once per turn, you can Special Summon 1 Dragon-Type monster from your hand to your side of the field.

The Dark - Hex-Sealed Fusion looks like another card that is very hard to get. Plus I kind of want to stay away from fusions of anykind in this deck. As the Fusion monsters I need for it are also hard to get. I wish I could just go and buy them, saddy cant do that. Thanks for the idea, myabe if I can pick up those cards I dont know. I'll have to see what everyone else has, etc, etc.

Well, first off let me say that your revised deck looks A LOT better than what you previously started with. So you are moving in the right direction.

I guess I should start off with your question about Dragon's Bead. As it's a continuous card, I believe you can re-use it's effect as long as it remains on the field (though I'm not 100% sure, you should check out the official site for rulings on this). If it does though, it's almost like a Royal Decree but crapper... but hey if you don't have the cash on hand I say...what can you do.

Also, DD Warrior lady is not necessary. In fact, I TOTALLY forgot about Mirage Dragon (a decent dragon I might add) so if you have some them they're good fillers too.

Keeping Lord of D. is fine the way you have set this up, so if you like how he operates then go for it.

Also, about your question about Magic Jammer... well most people don't use it is cause it's costly and there are better ways to protect your monsters (i.e. My Body as a Shield works great!). In this game, having hand advantage is big plus. So actually it's sometimes better to have LPs cost than having to discard.

My Body as a Shield
Quick-Play Spell Card
When your opponent activates a card that has the effect that destroys 1 or more monsters on the field, pay 1500 Life Points to negate the activation of the card and destroy it.

This card may cost you to give up some LPs, but the effects are WELL WORTH what it returns! And imagine using this with Lord Of D.! Say you have in on the field with some more Dragons and your opponent used Dark Hole, Cyber jar (well ONLY if HE flips it manually), Torrential Tribute so you chain with MBAAS! You would not only save your army of monsters but make them waste a card AND you'd still maintain immunity for your Dragons with Lord of D. (as mass removal is getting limited)! Trust me, MBAAS is really good! It can protect your monster (or monsters) from just about any card (except for removal from the game like DD Warrior Lady, etc.). Plus, it being a common card makes it easy for you to acquire!

As for Red Eyes B. Chic causing you problems, you NEED to get ahold of another Masked Dragon because he will make this deck run better and will allow you get REBC easier. You could also add a Sangan to the deck you want as well.

Moving on to your revised deck now:

-1 Mirage Dragon
+1 Sangan (excellent searcher in this deck, I TOTALLY forgot!)

-1 Axe of Despair
+1 Smashing Ground (definately try to get ahold of this)
or +1 Fissure (the next best thing for removal)

-1 ?????
+1 Inferno Fire Blast (GET ONE!)
or +1 Fissure (more removal)
or +1 Sakuretsu Armor (GET ONE)

-1 Curse of Anubis (meh...if you need a filler...go with something else)
-1 The Dragon's Bead (I don't think you really need this)
+1 Magic Jammer (better filler than Curse... and since you like...)
or (HIGHLY recommended)
+2 My Body as Shield (GET THEM ASAP!)

A final note,...if you want to go with a more Lord Of D. (Cause King Dragun is AWESOME) approach I would consider following the other guys deck post (soIseenow) but instead of using Divine Dragon Ragnarok I would use Lord of D. instead.

Good luck on your deck...

Hey thanks for the reply. Yeah I think end up taking out the Dragon's Bead as it just wasnt working for me.

I played a few games today and overall the deck did alright. I played a match agaisnt a deck with alot of the more powerful cards like ring and stuff. I end up losing the first match. Darkness Dragon end up getting ringed. But once I sideboard I won the next two. The last game was hard, which came down to a Creature Swap which gave me the game. (grabbing Blackluster ha! and giving him Red-Eyes B Chick)

I want to replace the Dragon's Bread with one of those My Body as a Shield. It looks like a great card, maybe I may get lucky and pick some of them up. As for the Curse of Anubis I think with Dragon's Rage its a good card because not only doesnt it stop a ### kicking for a turn which did happen once in the first game were he had breaker and another effect monster out and I stop him from attacking for a turn and it won me the 2nd game as I played it and then attacked his monster with Darkness Dragon which was 4200. He was at 4000, his monsters he was 3000 which he asked me why I did that and not just have him take 1000 but I then turn on Dragon's Rage and he try to ring Darkness and I stop it with seven tools which gave me the game. Because the Curse puts there monster to 0 def and dragon rage will trample it all over right? At least thats how we played it and so if that was wrong then I guess the game was his because I was only at 2500 and who knows what would have happen.

I never drew Skull Dice but Graceful Dice help my Luster Dragon out against a Jinzo when I rolled a 6. I know that was lucky as hell but if anything they may end up as sideboard cards or something. I'll do my best and see if I can pick up those cards you listed. I'm not sure if the area I play in if those cards are being used alot because if they are they will be hard to get. Which is why I'll never trade for a ring or blackluster because everyone wants it but no one will give them up. Thanks for the comments.

Glad to hear you are well and winning! (as one of the moderators always says...can't remember which one always says that....oh well...)

Um...people in your area are still using Ring of Destruction and Black Luster?! The new ban list was passed on Oct. 1 and those cards were banned from the Advanced Format. Unless you are playing the Traditional Format, your opponent's are playing with illegal cards.

I would suggest NOT using Graceful Dice and Skull Dice. They are TERRIBLE cards! Too luck oriented. You're better off using Fissure like I said and main decking something else! Actually, I didn't know you had Card Destruction! That's a good card to main in this deck! Take out the Graceful Dice for it!

I would suggest finding 2 My Body as a Shield ASAP! You will be suprised how much more powerful they will make this deck! Also, get some Sakuretsu Armors soon too (if not....you could always try using a Trap Hole or two)...

If Curse of Anubis is working well for you then continue using it. Take the card combo's you make and own them! This is what makes one an "original" duelist! Make your own play style and go with the flow....

P.S. Don't forget to check out my Armed Dragon Deck (the link to the page is in my previous post), it will help you with more dragon ideas...

Yeah I guess I should have said he was using a Traditional Format deck. Most if not all the tournaments in my area are advance format, but on the side games or just for fun people still have Traditional decks. It was the only deck I had with me as its the only working one I have. Normally I only have 2 decks at a time due to limits in having key cards.

Yeah I have like 10 Card Destruction or something like that. When the game first came here, suncost at the mall was selling starter decks at like 8.95 while the rest sold them for like $15 bucks so I must have picked up like 20+ decks so you could say I have alot of starter deck cards as they seem to give good cards in those things.

Changes I made to the deck is I took out the Dice cards and added two trap holes. And sideboard I took out the Jar of Greed and Dragon's Bread for a Trap hole and The shallow Grave.

Some did have a 2 My Body as Shield wouldnt trade it to me because he basically said my trade stuff was crap, which I'll agree as I dont have anything broken for trade as all my good cards I use. The only thing he wanted was a few cards from my decks but I don't trade form my decks so basically I couldnt get it. Hopfully sunday when I for more people will be there as their having a advance tournament sunday, hopfully I'll be able to pick the stuff up.

Your deck looks really good. I may want to make a deck around the lv dragons because I think their cool, I just need to get some lv7 dragons and I be on with it. I'm thinking of taking out the flutes for something else because now that I took it down to two lords of d's and 2 flutes I never seem to get them out togather. I think if I get the 2 My Body as Shield I'll replace the flutes with them.

Thanks for the comments I'll give you a update on how I do sunday.
