Forum:LEGION, for we are many

Use actual numbers instead of writing out each card. 3 Mystical Space Typhoon is the same as writing Mystical Space Typhoon out three times. It gets kinda confusing when the same card is listed multiple times, numbers before the cards make it easier on most people. I'm not going to comment too much, but I think you need a pair of Tour Guide, just so you can make Leviair. Also, Strike Ninja is kinda cool since he gets around Garden. --Dark Ace SP (Talk) 23:20, July 31, 2013 (UTC)

I would replace the Chain Summoning with Double Summon, because it's more versatile and less complicated to use. Other than that it's pretty good. I like the title "Legion, for we are many", is that a Shadowman reference? --BronzeJohnson (talk • contribs) 07:58, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

Since you have that many darks in the deck, why not running Dark Armed Dragon? It would be a must. Also, there are cards like Dark Illusion that can help to protect your monsters. Another good aditions would be Jester Confit, Unknown Synchron, Battle Fader, Tragoedia, Gorz the Emissary of Darkness and Fires of Doomsday, all of which special summon themselves and then you can just use them to burn on the same or the next turn. I hope it helps. Fawlker 15:20, August 1, 2013 (UTC)

Interesting, your mentioning of a ninja type. I will be finishing a "Ninja"-centric version of this deck tonight, and I did not include the "Dark Armed Dragon" in this particular build simply because I chose not too, and kept focus instead on a OTK/FTK with SO (and sychro, TALE) and her legion of dark tributes. If I were to include the Dark Armed Dragon, I would substitute 1 of the Dark Creators. My other all-purpose version of the deck does include the Dark Armed Dragon, my secret. The Dark Creators are a type of fail safe if sufficient dark tributes are unavailable with Ohm and kumpknee alone, so, after tributing her dark offerings and lastly SO herself to inflict damage, SO would (ideally) serve as the 5th and final requirement of the Dark Creators summon, allowing for the revival of the recently tributed SO (but preferrably SM for + 1 summon) from the grave and 2 additonal dark tributes (SO & TDC: 3 if SM is revived) to further inflict damage (ded preferrably)

This deck's name is referencing a quote from "EXORCIST III", it's orginal title being "LEGION", a movie which, to my recollection, has the finest depiction of evil by a human being. (bRAD dOURIFF, in particulllar) The main combo integral for all the decks I have posted since C.S.O.C. involves of course the Black Garden & the Summoning Curse, maximizing both per removal per SC and abusing Gardens revival effect with appropriate attack valued monsters. (forcing tokens to opponent's field per Black Garden) with back to back summoning whilst minimizing the damage done to my hand with + 1s like Sacred Crane and/or making use of the banished cards per RFTDD or to increase a creatures stats per Tyranno Infinity, a deck I will be building involving it soon which will be called, Dinogarden of Earthly Delights.

I have considered double summon, but when factoring the number of monsters that start a chain when normal and/or special summoned, coupled with the Black Garden's effect which also starts a chain ("chain like" as described on its page) when a monster is summoned, (excluding by it's own effect) I am confident using 2 of the Chain Summoning in this deck. This also significantly increases the percentage of SO's OTK/FTK when it sees play and is the perfect counter to Effect Veiler should my opponent attempt to negate my monster's effect upon its summon, as chaining chain summoning negates its purpose, especially if in my hand a birdman is held, allowing for the re-summon of the monster whose effect was just (pointlessly) negated. Effect Veiler.. HA

The Tour Guide From the Underworld was first considered, but the inclusion of multiple level 3 fiends (TGFTUx2 aside) whose attendence would be mandatory in that build, I found to be ill-fitting for this version, though for an easier method of XYZ summoning leviair, there is none. I will likely build another version, including a duo of TGFTUs, working together with deep sea divas and the like, exploding with a frenzy of synchro and XYZ, also utilizing a duo of the Card Troopers dumping many creatures in the grave for later revival with the Black Garden.

Important note: 2 of the Summoning Curse can be substituted for 2 of the Seed Cannon which has great synergy considering the potential for effect damage in this build, and further increases OTK/FTK percentage. Also, a Samurai version I will also build, abusing both Shien's Smoke Signal's current unlimited status and the inherent & effect summoning abilities of the monsters within the ranks of the Samurai swarm. This deck will certainly include multiple Seed Cannons, and a minimum of 1 Z-ONE. (for recycling the Seed Cannon(s))

Dark Illusion was also considered, yet, regardless that nearly all the monsters within are of dark nature, (excluding the single E-H-Stratos) I find that it is generally a better idea to prepare for (if one chooses to) the commonly found cards, such as Dark Hole and Torrential tribute(s). If I were to use the Dark Illusion for protection, it would be in a deck that both utilizes counter traps and includes Van'Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lords, The Bountiful Artemis, Harvest Angel of Wisdom, Mask of Darkness, accompanied by their dark fairy counterparts including Dark Valkyria, Dark Voltanis, Phantom Skyblasters, etc.

I included Leviair The Sea Dragon only as an afterthought, as the only way the deck can currently summon it is by way of 2 Birdmen. Admittedly, I am neglectful when it comes to completing extra decks when posting on the Wikia.
