Apprentice Monarchs

[Meddling Mage]

Murkrow is good.

D.D. Crow does kinda look like a dimensional cousin of Murkrow.

With open heart surgery, yes.

Murkrow has a hat.  D.D. Crow is part robot. Robot Crow/Chicken.

do you have GB Hunter in your side deck?
Also i often find Sangan a dead card when i use two Avarice because apprentice and Gspy usually run in 3's and get what i need.
I've taken sangan out of my apprentice monarch deck i main spirit reaper and treeborn always.
also with two copies of avarice and Sexchange i use 6to7 monarchs always. just dont use avarice's effect on a monarch ever.

[Fever]

Why it? It just depends?

[Meddling Mage]

I know I'm probably going to have people mad at me for saying this, but I playtested the deck for the past couple days against other good decks and at least to be Legendary Jujitsu Master seems to play better in the main deck of this deck that the GK engine does.  I'm already running the Apprentice engine I really don't need the GK engine in there as well.  Here is the update of the deck with LJM in the main deck:

MONSTERS: 20
03 Caius the Shadow Monarch
03 Apprentice Magician
03 Legendary Jujitsu Master
03 Raiza the Storm Monarch
02 Old Vindictive Magician
02 Breaker the Magical Warrior
01 Cyber Dragon
01 Gorz the Emissary of Darkness
01 Sangan
01 Treeborn Frog

SPELLS: 10
03 Book of Moon
02 Allure of Darkness
02 Soul Exchange
01 Brain Control
01 Heavy Storm
01 Mystical Space Typhoon

TRAPS: 10
02 Bottomless Trap Hole
02 Phoenix Wing Wind Blast
02 Dark Bribe
01 Call of the Haunted
01 Mirror Force
01 Solemn Judgment
01 Torrential Tribute

SIDE DECK: 15
02 Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer
02 Banisher of the Radiance
02 Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch
01 D.D. Crow
03 Threatening Roar
02 Dust Tornado
02 Royal Oppression
01 My Body as Shield

There you go let me know what you think about the new Apprentice Monarch deck.

[PkMn Trainer]

>!!!

I still hate Crystal Seer.

Besides, that, it still looks good.  >_>; I also still think you could do without the Vortex with Monarchs' control.  I'd have a Solemn in its place... if you get one.  e_e''' I don't like the control here... it's bad for me.

-1x Crystal Seer
-1x Lightning Vortex

+1x Breaker the Magical Warrior
+1x Solemn Judgment

I actually made a change and you might like it.

[PkMn Trainer]

She's gone!

[Meddling Mage]

She's gone!

Yep the simpliest fix in the world.  Just add in a second Breaker.

[PkMn Trainer]

Lol Yup.  I don't have much of a problem with this anymore.

[Fever]

I saw a deleted post from here I think.

I saw a deleted post from here I think.

It was me by accident.  I accidentally hit "Remove" instead of "Modify".

[Fever]

Oh I see. I'll move it over to the Trash.

Yes. I have a lot of responsibility.  ]

If I don't get a Solemn Judgment for Christmas, I'll probably buy one online for about 8-9 dollars.  I need to pick of a 3rd Raiza and a D.D. Crow for this deck anyway, so I might as well kill 3 birds with one stone.

That's a random gift. lol. "Oh! A Solemn Judgment in my stocking. Thanks Santa."

[Meddling Mage]

I wonder if a Light and Darkness Dragon would be good in this deck?



I just wonder.

Lol!


LaDD made me lose once.   The guy I played with had Cyber Valleys, Armageddon Knights, Necro Gardnas, and Spies.  Lots of defense.

My hand was meh and he Soul Exchanged my Colossal Fighter & used it and his Treeborn Frog as Tributes for LaDD.  And because Psychic Commander's effect only activates in the Damage Step, I couldn't use Mirror Force...

Worth using.  Tech 1 and see how it does.

I'll probably try something like this:

APPRENTICE MONARCHS W/ LADD

MONSTERS: 21
03 Caius the Shadow Monarch
02 Raiza the Storm Monarch
01 Cyber Dragon
01 Gorz the Emissary of Darkness
01 Light and Darkness Dragon

03 Apprentice Magician
03 Legendary Jujitsu Master
02 Breaker the Magical Warrior
02 Old Vindictive Magician
01 Spirit Reaper
01 Sangan
01 Treeborn Frog

SPELLS: 11
03 Book of Moon
02 Allure of Darkness
02 Soul Exchange
01 Brain Control
01 Heavy Storm
01 Mystical Space Typhoon
01 Pot of Avarice

TRAPS:
02 Bottomless Trap Hole
02 Phoenix Wing Wind Blast
01 Call of the Haunted
01 Solemn Judgment
01 Mirror Force
01 Torrential Tribute

SIDE DECK:
02 Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer
02 Banisher of the Radiance
02 Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch
01 D.D. Crow
03 Threatening Roar
02 Dust Tornado
02 Royal Oppression
01 My Body as Shield

That should work.  Guess you can keep the Spirit Reaper.

[Meddling Mage]

If I can get my hands on one, I could do this:

-1x Spirit Reaper
+1x Dandylion

It's just Dandylion is a hard card to find in my area.  With 12 Dark monsters in this deck I should still be fine with Allure of Darkness.

[PkMn Trainer]

That would be even better.  Ain't Dandylion expensive though?

[Meddling Mage]

Dandylion is like a $15 card at my local, but at TrollandToad.com (where I buy my cards on-line) it's like a $10 card.

LaDD adds another control aspect to the deck, I basically can use to protect my Monarchs from being destroyed.  If LaDD doesn't work out that great, I'll just add in Prime Material Dragon instead.  It adds the control aspect to the Monarchs, it can support the Monarchs, plus the effect isn't mandatory unlike LaDD is.
