Forum:Royal Flush Swarm ~~ Please Comment!

I was thinking about Yami Yugi's decks, and how he uses the combination of Queen's Knight, Jack's Knight and King's Knight to gain three monsters. Well, I decided to take the swarm one step further, with Guardian of Order. 4 monsters in two turns, just by having three cards in my hand, and not even having to use Spells or Traps for that combo? Sounds good to me. Now, let's upgrade Yugi's Straight Flush a bit, shall we?

The deck revolves around swarming with the Poker knights, and using the effects of other LIGHT monsters to easily Special Summon themselves, while using my Spells and Traps to stop my opponent's effects from interfering. The main combo would usually be Special Summoning either Cyber Dragon or Soul of Purity and Light, followed by Normal Summoning a Knight, possibly swarming another Knight from my deck. Then comes Guardian of Order. Activate Luminous Spark, flip your face-down Royal Decree, and crush them.

Monsters: Guardian of Order is first, because he can be Special Summoned almost instantly. At 2500 ATK, I think that's a good thing. Next up are Queen's Knight, King's Knight, and Jack's Knight, in that order. Yugi would be proud. Honest can give my monsters a free pass to victory, and Cyber Dragon is another great LIGHT Special Summon monster, along with Soul of Purity and Light, who fuels Light of Redemption. Lastly, Thunder King Rai-Oh stops Black Whirlwind or Sangan from helping my opponent from worming their way out of justice being brought down on them.

Spells: Luminous Spark provides my monsters with a nice boost, making even my small Queen's Knight a 2000 ATK beatstick. Mystical Space Typhoon, Giant Trunade and Heavy Storm get rid of my opponent's back row, and The Warrior Returning Alive can bring back Guardian of Order or my Knights. Big Bang Shot gives a monster +400 and Piercing, while setting up for Light of Redemption. Forbidden Chalice is a good way for negating things, or it could even provide a monster on my field with a small power boost to win a fight for the cause. United We Stand is a card Yugi would use, if all three Knights are on the field, Jack's becomes a 4300. Light of Redemption, as mentioned in the above combos, can reuse Honest or Guardian of Order, and Soul Release can help set it up and screw with my opponent's Graveyard.

Traps: Ryal Decree comes in threes, plus I think it fits the theme, with the whole "Royal Knights" set-up. Beckoning Light can be activated if Decree isn't out, since it fills my hand with Honests, Cyber Dragon, and Guardian of Order.

Please give me suggestions on how to improve this deck!--Akiza Izayoi 04:39, December 13, 2009 (UTC)
