Magical (Prophecy) Decklist

This blog has been dead for the past month and I believe it's time to post something... I've been playing Magicals and Mermails for the past 2 months and both decks seem to be fairing pretty well. Mermails are kinda the meta now so I decided to talk about Magicals instead.

The deck has its easily summonable/searchable boss monster, High Priestess of Prophecy, which is pretty much a Master Hyperion. Although her attack is not as high, the means to bring out High Priestess is what makes her so feared. Apart from this, the deck also has draw power in terms of Wonder Wand and the Field Spell, and a little bit of control with Effect Veilers and Fiendish Chains.


Here's the list if you don't recognize some of the cards:-

Monsters -16
----------------
3x Effect Veiler
3x High Priestess of Prophecy
3x Spellbook Magician of Prophecy (Searches for Spellbooks)
3x Temperance of Prophecy (Helps summon High Priestess from deck)
2x Justice of Prophecy (Helps search High Priestess and Spellbooks from deck)
1x Stoic of Prophecy (Search for the above 2 monsters)
1x Night's End Sorcerer


Spells - 16
-------------
3x Wonder Wand
3x Spellbook of Secrets
2x The Grand Spellbook Tower
2x Spellbook of Life
2x Spellbook of Wisdom
1x Spellbook of Eternity
1x Spellbook of Power
1x Spellbook of Fate
1x Monster Reborn

Traps - 8
-----------
2x Fiendish Chain
2x Torrential Tribute
2x Bottomless Trap Hole
2x Compulsory Evacuation Device

You'll notice most of the spells in this deck are Spellbooks, and they alone can get this deck going.

Spellbook of Secrets - The searcher, can search out any Spellbook card, including Spellbook Magician of Prophecy.
The Grand Spellbook Tower - The Field Spell which gives us additional draw power and recycles the Spellbooks.
Spellbook of Life - The monster reborn.
Spellbook of Wisdom - The forbidden lance, kinda.
Spellbook of Eternity - Works wonders with High Priestless.
Spellbook of Power - Attack boost with search.
Spellbook of Fate - Situational card which saved me a lot of times.

This deck has A LOT of searching and deck thinning going on. (Beware of Rai-Oh) Here's some of the little combos you can pull off.

- Summon Spellbook Magician, effect search 1. Equip Wonder Wand and tribute both to draw 2.

- High Priestess banish 1 Spellbook to destroy 1 card. Activate Spellbook of Eternity, return the banished Spellbook to your hand. Eternity makes another High Priestess ammo, or you can return it to the deck with the Field Spell, search it out with Secrets, and do it again.

- Summon Temperance or Justice, activate Spellbook of Life to banish Spellbook Magician and SS Night's End from graveyard, it will be level 4. Banish 2 cards from opponent's graveyard and proceed to synchro Arcanite Magician. It's just amazing with what you can do with Spellbook of Life and Night's End.

Apart from these, your main objective is to bring out High Priestess as fast as possible and control your opponent with her. Spellbooks of Life can bring her back from the dead, Spellbook of Power makes her an incredible 3500 ATK monster and Spellbook of Wisdom protects her from the nasty spells/traps your opponent might use.

There are actually more stuff this deck can pull off, but I am just listing down the usual plays. Try out this deck and feel its power. :)

Double tournament report 4/11/2012

OK, It has being rather stale lately as I am just lazy to put details...... here goes
Went with Jason and Khai (Only Jason participates however)

Free Top shop tournament at Thousand Taste 4/11/2012

Format: Single Eli
Number of Participant: 20 +
Deck used: Chaos Rabbit Geargia
Judge: Bixuan

Round 1 vs Sebastian OO- (Heros?)

Game 1: Geargiant X searches for a Balck Salvo, ended with a Karakuri Shogun mdl 00 "Burei" that called out a Karakuri Ninja mdl 339 "Sazank", etc.... Forgot how I win.

Game 2: Tour Guide to Sangan that serach out rabbit....., while he drew a terrible hand. Meanwhile I kept derping him with top decking of limited cards like monster reborn etc.

Round 2 vs Shi Jie OXX (Skill Drain Rabbit Laggia)

Game 1: So many Chalice WTF, Karakuri Ninja mdl 339 "Sazank" attempts to Troll Laggia but it got trolled back by Chalice. However, a series of back and forth. Laggia + Garments = Sucide with my BLS...... However, managed to chip in bit by bit till he is handless and hit for game
.
Game 2: Stop giving my Tour Guide the chalice!!! Died to a Beast King Barbaros with help from skill drain.

Game 3: Make a terrible misplay. Already have the advantage with a Skilled Drained Tour guide that kept poking him while his 5 BACKROW never answers him. His LP was at 3k. I drew a monster reborn. I got greedy, ignoring all the backrow and I just reborn his Barbaros to kill.
He got a mirror force waiting >.< .
Even after lucksacking a heavy storm with help of allure of darkness, my fate is sealed.

So I got kicked out,,,,,,,

End of report??/
Nope not yet

Well, it is supposed to be over, we just go back to Yewtee Econ to give a slack, AND it turns out there was ANOTHER YU-GI-Oh TOURNAMENT!!
Sadly, it is not free but since it is just a cheap $2 tournament, I was thinking "Why Not?"
Well, there was a VG tournament going on just about then so it is going to start out quite late, meanwhile we just slacked around.

Turns out one of our WDF members; Victoriette Lim was at Econ.
So we just chit-chat for a while to pass time.

Finally, the tournament starts (FINALLY)

Full Yen Econ Mini Tournament Report 4/11/2012

Format: Double Eli
Number of Participant: less than 12??
Deck used: Chaos Rabbit Geargia

Round 1 vs Jason XX- (Inzektors) (Team Member)

Game 1: I know I already lost, but he kept assuming I had Swift Scarecrow, (due to daily training) so I just derp him by letting him reduce my LP to zero.
Game 2: Nothing to say, bugs do all the plus and bomb

Round 2 vs Sebastian OXX (Hero + Revenge match)

Game 1: He had exactly 2600 LP left, He got Alius plus a set card on the field
I got a Karakuri Shogun mdl 00 "Burei" and 2 X-Head Cannon on the field. It turns out that his set card is a Gemini Spark. It is a win for me.
.
Game 2: Forgot how I lost, I just lost

Game 3; When Honest is gay, it is gay


End of a Double Report
