Hopeless Dragon!



Actually Hopeless Dragon is not a bad deck idea you know. It can easily take out alot of decks with Phantom of Chaos plus Norleras. If you do so, the game will be reset and you can draw a card puttin you at a +1 in terms of card presence. Next turn opponent draws out something. Surely it cant do anythin what.

Is it a monster? I just remove my Wyvern and swarm with Red Eyes Darkness Metal dragonn the boss monkey. If he is so lucky that the card is Bottomless, fear not, I have another Wyvern in grave to do the nightmare again.

Is it a spell he just drew? Nothing one lah. For once Im happy Blackwings get their Whirlwind.

If its Mirror Force, just bring out boss monkey and revive Prime Material Dragon, then discard one from hand and destroy. BY now you will have 2 cards in hand (one from Norleras, and one recently drawn at draw phase) so it will be okay.

I wonder if anyone will make a variant that can draw out the deck in whole turn to FTK or something. It would be cool though. If you start first, you pass. Then second turn draw whole deck, get heavy and kill. Then play your lightning vortex/ any form of monster removal (But not Norleras as its suicidal (unless needed!)) then summon all the boss monkeys and do so. Hmmm. Lazy to think about how to make a deck like that now. Erin Diaz's Ohm FTK is a good example as well as Baha's old EMOBC.

I think that Hopeless Dragon has a good chance against most decks (NO PUN INTENDED!)
If you don't mind playin proxies, or are very rich to afford 3 wyvern and 3 REDMD, go ahead and run this build:

Monster: 23
3 Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon
3 Red-Eyes Wyvern
2 Dark Horus
1 Dark Armed Dragon
1 Prime Material Dragon
2 Dark Grepher
2 The Dark Creator
2 Sky Scourge Norleras
3 Necro Gardna
1 Plaguespreader Zombie
3 Phantom of Chaos


Spell: 17
3 Trade-In
3 Hand Destruction
1 Gold Sarcophagus
2 Allure of Darkness
1 Reinforcement of the Army
1 Future Fusion
2 D.D.R. - Different Dimension Reincarnation
1 Card Destruction
2 Foolish Burial
1 Heavy Storm

You could try Summon Priest for consistency to get Phantom but I wouldnt recommend that. 40 cards in deck + lots of draw + 3 Phantom = sure get. Future Fusion is a must get though, as its like Painful Choice for you. Maybe run Card Gunner...But it may kill the consistency abit. Later mill all my magics =.=

I might run Burial. But dunno what to take out for it actually. Burial helps with Phantom, REDMD, wyvern, necro and too much la actually.

Necro in there is for fun. Lightlord abuse- true story. Its to stop you from dying before killing with your boss monkey.

The bombing of Phantom is really useful la. They cant bottomless you and if they solemn it, its okay as you just make it even easier to kill them. The only thing that worries me is Skill Drain or the pesky chariot.

Before i end, I greatly urge every player to read this article by Jason Grebher Meyer. It really opened my eyes and reminded me of things that I had totally forgot. You'll become a player after you read this =) Its a must read.

Side note: Burden of the Mighty = annoying!
