How to use xyz monsters

With these new creatures being released, I figured it would be about time to explain how these xyz monsters. These monsters are peculiar indeed; first, they are placed in the extra deck with any fusion or synchro monsters you have, but they are easier to summon. For this card named "Baby Tiragon", it needs three level 1 monsters to be summoned. How they are summoned is to fit the requirement the card says (like Baby Tiragon) and stack them below the xyz monster summoned. The monsters are then treated as xyz material monsters and help the xyz monsters unleash their true power. For Baby Tiragon, it's naturally not that great of an effect. He can send one xyz material on it and have one level 1 monster you have attack your opponent directly. I bet you're thinking "A level 1 monster? That's all?" Fortunately there are new methods to help this. A new card released, called Gagaga Magician, can reduce its level from any level from 1 all the way to 8, if only he's not used as a synchro material monster. But you CAN reduce his level to 1 and use Tiragon to have Gagaga attack your opponent directly. A 1500 direct attack is not bad at all; sadly some xyz monsters have negative effects if there are no xyz materials on them, such as Utopia. Utopia allows you to release one of his two xyz materials and negate an attack, but if he's attacked with no xyz materials on, he gets destroyed automatically. So xyz monsters have good and bad effects, but it all counts how you use them. Hope you get some xyz monsters soon to stay with the times! Happy dueling!   

The Magnet Warriors

Again, I am also sorry for not updating this for awhile. But now seeing we have fans, we have a mission to continue with this. Anyway, I am going to explain a archetype today; an archetype is simply a set of cards inside of a type that work well together. Let's go with none other than the four magnet warriors. If you recall, Yugi used these from Battle City until the end of the season. Even at the end of the season, a combination of the three weaker magnets is able to defeat the three Egyptian God cards with the help of an anime-exclusive trap that weakened the Gods attack when Slifer's effect activated. Anyway the only four magnet cards released were Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Valkryion. Alpha and Gamma are made more for defense, while Beta on the opposite hand is made for offense. The good thing about the magnet warriors is you can send all three from your hand to the graveyard to summon the ultimate magnet warrior: Valkyrion, with an attack of 3500 and a defense of 3850. Valkryion can also activate its effect, send itself to the graveyard and summon all three magnet warriors back from your graveyard. All in all, the magnet warriors are cool and can work well with the new xyz monsters released. That's all from this corner for now. Happy dueling!

Card of the Day!! - Neo-Spacian Grand Mole

Sorry for the months of not being on here, but here's hoping that'll change! Okay well getting things started again is probably one of my favorite cards of all time! Neo-Spacain Grand mole probably has one of the best abilities around, one that may not defeat your opponent, but it sure as heck will delay him and buy you some extra time . His effect allows you to return a monster that he is attacking or is foolish enough to attack him ( yes even though he only has only 900 ATK and 300DEF) back to your opponent's hand. The only downside to this being that he goes back to your hand at the same time. This means that he will be your only summon until you can work up a strategy, or unless your opponent is able to pull off some pretty good tricks. So overall this is a great card, that may buy time, but only for so long, defiantly a staple I use in almost all my decks I put together. This card is limited, so only one in your deck!

Card of the Day!- Stardust Xiaolong!

Here's the card of the day, Stardust Xiaolong. He's a level 1, Light attribute Dragon monster with 100 ATK and DEF. His effect is simply, when you synchro summon Stardust Dragon, you can summon this from your graveyard. Also if it would be destroyed once a round, it isn't. Obviously huge support for the Majestic Star Dragon!

Card of the Day!-Majestic Dragon!

Today's card is Majestic Dragon, a 1 star, Light Dragon tuner monster with 0 ATK and 0 DEF. His effect is cut and dry; he CAN'T be used for a synchro summon unless it's for a "Majestic" synchro monster. For the record, there are only two: Majestic Star Dragon and Majestic Red Dragon. However difficult that may be, it actually isn't. Just have either Stardust or Red Dragon on the field, summon this, then activate "One for one", to special summon a Level 1 monster from your deck. Just make sure it's a non-tuner!

How To Build an Elemental Hero deck

Here's a guide on Elemental Heroes; their main goal is fusion, as mostof the best monster are with that category. In the anime however, they have more fictional hero cards that have never been released in English. Most regular heroes require no tribute, except for Necroshade and Bladedge. Fusion support is HUGELY required in this deck; Especially with hero fusion support like Miracle Fusion, which remove heroes in the graveyard for a fusion summon. Oddly enough with the cards released, heroes could be extended into a Neo-Spacian deck with Neos released, but with the new fusions from Air Neos, Glow Neos, etc., it's not recommended. Super Polymerization is also handy in this deck. First you can have a fusion monster attack and then, during the battle phase, use De-Fusion and send the fusion monster back to the extra deck and summon the two monsters (or more) from your graveyard used to form it and have them attack. Finally, use Super Polymerization, also during the battle phase, and fuse the monsters again and have the fusion monster strike a third blow. Of course with Fusion Gate and Miracle Fusion, it won't work as they will be removed. Nevertheless, hero cards are rare at this point with new synchro cards being released, so finding one could be hard.

Card of the Day!- Changer Synchron!

Even though Changer Synchron isn't strong, his effect makes up for it. He's a level 1 Dark attribute Machine tuner with 0 ATK and DEF. If he's used for a synchro summon, you can switch the battle mode of a monster your opponent controls. If the synchro monster is something like Red Dragon Archfiend or Flamvell Uraquizas, that defense monster will be gone soon. Of course if the monster survives, it can switch back to attack mode next turn.
