At one point, I'm certain we've ALL bought one of the Structure decks. I still use the Invincible Fortress structure deck in casual duels. All of these structure decks have certain things in common; they cost about the same; they will always have the card list, unlike a booster back; they also all have a trump card. Many decks don't, but a structure deck's most powerful card is usually conveniently displayed right on the front, where potential buyers can see it. And they're not just pretty, they can be downright DEADLY.

So, as you've probably guessed, what you will be doing for this competition is making a deck based around one of these monster cards. Voters, you should vote based on how consistent the deck seems to be, its power, and how well it exploits this trump card. For the record, here are your choices:

As there are 18 choices, 18 contestants will be allowed. No one can choose a card that has already been taken. Registration is over at the end of Wednesday, November 11. Decks must be in by Saturday, November 14. Good luck to all contestants, and may the best one win! Runer5h 02:02, November 9, 2009 (UTC)Runer5h

Registration

Here, please put your name and the card of your choice. For instance:

(Please note that this is an example - I am not entering this competition. You may still choose Infernal Flame Emperor.)

Q&A

Wow, it's seven-and-a-half hours (by my watch) since this started, and no-one has chosen Caius the Shadow Monarch for an easy deck yet. What gives? Battlemaniac 09:31, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

I have.XD Flushy 11:20, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

... I didn't intend this section to be used for rhetorical questions. Runer5h 20:33, November 9, 2009 (UTC)Runer5h

Sorry. But I have a question anyways. Can we start posting our decks by today? Flushy 22:07, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Are we allowed to use both OCG and TCG cards? What exactly is considered "consistent" (for example, if I include cards from several different archetypes, but they support the deck well, is that "consistent"?)? Since I just signed up as a contestant, am I still allowed in the Competition? Am I allowed to bombard you with this many questions? --Shapesnatched, owner of Shapesnatch's Evil Mind Controlling Bow Ties, Inc. 22:33, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Consistent means that it would perform well consistently. It has nothing to do with archetypes, etc. And you can use both OCG and TCG cards yes. You are eligible for entry as well. And you can ask as many questions as you like as long as they're all relevant, and haven't yet been asked.
As for Flushy, please don't. Post as close to the due date as is possible for you, but the deck contests generally work better if people post exactly on time. It's better for voting. Runer5h 00:23, November 10, 2009 (UTC)Runer5h

Okay, I'm sorry, but I have one more. Obviously, the minimum cards we can have is 40, but is there a maximum (of course, too many cards is never a good thing)? --Shapesnatched, owner of Shapesnatch's Evil Mind Controlling Bow Ties, Inc. 03:31, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

The maximum number of cards allowed in a deck is 60, I believe.--Black Rose 03:33, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

I have another question, does the originality of the deck counts in to consideration of the score? Flushy 13:40, November 10, 2009 (UTC)
