Forum:Ignis Manticore Burn

Now, I know this is an unusual "Billy Deck", but this is something I came up with on a fly for a project of mine, and I actually think it's rather fun and ingenious. The trick here is the loop between Manticore of Darkness and Flame Spirit Ignis: each time I Tribute Manticore for Ignis' effect, I use one of my many FIRE Beast/Beast-Warrior monsters to revive it, allowing me to retribute it for Ignis' effect next turn while at the same time netting me an extra 100 points of damage to the opponent each turn. By my calculations, just by using this loop, I'd only need to stall the opponent for around 12 or 13 turns before I completely destroy their LP. Of course, I've got cards like Solar Flare Dragon and Spiritual Fire Art to deal more damage, and I've got plenty of stall and recycling cards to reuse my key cards (Royal Firestorm Guard is mainly there to recycle any of the Ignis' that get dumped into the Graveyard). It's not a perfect deck, and there's no way in hell (no pun intended) that this will match up to the netdeckers, but it's a unique take on the whole burn deck, and I think it'll perform fairly well, as a result. 66.228.109.2 17:27, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
