Credit to Helix-king for the pun. This deck aims do what Black Garden decks do best - aggravate your opponent by messing up their summons. The difference here is that I'm using a card to lock my opponent out of summoning monsters entirely!

This deck is built around the combo of Cactus Bouncer and Black Garden - a combo that can be intensely difficult for the opponent to deal with. If I can summon Cactus Bouncer and activate Black Garden, then as soon as my opponent summons any monster their special summons are locked down! The Rose Token will be generated by Black Garden and they'll be in deep trouble, because they'll probably be unable to attack over my monster. Also, if I summon anything they won't get tokens!

I have 3 Cactus Bouncers as the first card in the deck - they create the lock. Koa'ki Meiru Gravirose is also included because of its beatsticking ability, and the useful milling it provides. Botanical Lion is a good card to set with Black Garden on-field, and if I flip summon it next turn it will have an unaffected ATK value. Lonefire Blossom and Tytannial are primarily useful when I have neither Black Garden nor Cactus Bouncer on the field, but they shouldn't be a huge problem if I don't. Besides, I can always mill Lonefire with Gravirose to reduce the potential of dead draws.

Meanwhile, there's a bit of a DARK support engine at work. Three Necro Gardnas provide great defense, and have many ways to be milled to the graveyard. Breaker the Magical Warrior is a beatstick with S/T removal built in, though I'm still unsure what its ATK will end up as when it is summoned. Violet Witch searches out Cactus, Gravirose, and even Lonefire. Finally, Caius is a great removal card and fairly powerful.

The first spell card is Black Garden, which is the other half of my deadly combo. Two Terraformings search out the Gardens and thin the deck. Mark of the Rose allows for some interesting strategies, adding speed to the deck. Miracle Fertilizer, though it doesn't help much for Cactus, is useful for all the other plants, including Tytannial and Lonefire. Allure of Darkness gives me draw power with the 9 DARK monsters in the deck. MST and Brain Control are staples; Monster Reincarnation comes in as a way to reuse Cactus Bouncer.

The first trap card, Raigeki Break, is a generally useful card, and can discard Necro Gardnas and other dead cards. Dark Bribe and Solemn Judgment protect my Black Garden and Cactus Bouncer from threats. Finally, Mirror Force can help against attacks.

There is an extra deck, but I'm too lazy to show it. Tell me what you think of this concept deck. Runer5h 03:13, February 2, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h
