On the contrary, Gadjiltron; surely Snake Whistle, saying when your Reptile is "destroyed", means both as a result of battle '''and''' by a card effect. That's what I always read it as, because it does not specify the means of how it is destroyed...

Oh and, I like this deck. It makes good use of some of the strangest cards around, even though they are weak. Shocktroopers aren't essential as they lack an "Alien" effect, but Warriors are definitely worth it. If you want to focus more on the "A" Counter side of the Aliens, then I suggest more than one Corruption Cell "A", and also Flying Saucer Musiik'i is useful, despite it being 5 stars.  If you can get it out early on (for example, you might want to put in Ultimate Offering), then you have a way of controlling your draws. The only downside with an Alien deck is that there's no point in the "A" Counters unless you've got some way of attacking, and with the weak ATK of most of them, it's tough. Cosmic Horrors are decent, and work well when paired with Brainwashing Beam or Mass Hypnosis, but Alien Mother is better, and actually worth its tribute. You'll need to keep control of the field, and if you're thinking of keeping the "space" theme, you could even put in a Grand Mole, just for laughs ^^.

I'm no deck doctor, so I dunno if my advice is any good, but oh well ^^. This is a fun deck type to play with, so just mess around and you might come across something great!

How can i improve my deck? Leebq 11:51, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Snake Whistle is not as good as it seems as it cannot activate when your Reptiles are destroyed by battle. Also, I think it would be best to focus entirely on Aliens - so no Rise of the Snake Diety, Vennominon or Vennominaga. --Gadjiltron 11:55, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
