Maximum Fun Challenge GO!
An OTK with "Divine Wind of Mist Valley", "Genex Ally Birdman", and "Reborn Tengu":


 * 1. Normal Summon "Reborn Tengu".
 * 2. Return it to the hand to Special Summon "Genex Ally Birdman". Get another "Tengu" automatically. Use "Divine Wind" to Special Summon "Genex Blastfan". Use "Blastfan" to add a "Birdman" to your hand.
 * 3. Synchro Summon "Ancient Fairy Dragon" with "Blastfan" and "Birdman". Use AFD to bomb "Divine Wind" and add another to your hand.
 * 4. Return "Tengu" for another "Birdman". Get the last "Tengu" automatically. Use the effect of "Divine Wind" to Special Summon another "Blastfan" and get the last "Birdman".
 * 5. Synchro Summon another "Ancient Fairy Dragon" with "Blastfan" and "Birdman". Use AFD to get a new Field Spell.
 * 6. Bounce the last "Tengu" for a final "Birdman". Use "Divine Wind" to get a final "Blastfan". The effect of "Blastfan" will search "R-Genex Oracle". Special Summon it by its effect.
 * 7. Synchro Summon "Genex Ally Axel" with AFD and "Oracle". Attack with "Axel", "Blastfan", AFD, and the boosted "Birdman" (2800 + 1600 + 2100 + 1900 = 8400).

Here's the question: Why wouldn't this work?

Were You Aware
...that "Neo-Spacian Dark Panther" can copy the name and effect of any Effect Monster on the field?

...that the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness" is a Trigger Effect that cannot be negated by "Thunder King Rai-Oh"?

...that "Neo-Spacian Dark Panther" can only copy your opponent's monsters?

...that if you made a stack of pennies until you had enough for a "Gold Sarcophagus", it would not fit in your house?

Thanks
Hey thanks for your advice on the Voltic Mill deck a couple days back. It's a relatively unknown deck, so whatever advice really helped. Although I'm not really try to run an average mill deck, so the Book of Eclipse idea was good, but I won't be using it. Also I'm pretty sure Dandylion is semi-limited..you told me to cut it down to one.. Aznskills90214 (talk • contribs) 02:51, January 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * No need to thank me; I am glad to contribute useless advice. I seem to frequently make the assumption that someone who is using two of a Limited card ("Cold Wave") is using two of another Limited card ("Dandylion").  As I said on the page, I wish there were a word for a Deck that depends on milling to use its effects but does not win by milling cards (like "Lightsworn" monsters).

Quotes
Thank you for your formatting fixes to Vairons. Just so you know, card names only need to be given in quotes when they are mentioned in prose. They do not need quotes when in list format. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 15:39, February 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * I thought so, but I wasn't sure. Gratitudes.

Designless Square (talk • contribs) 19:05, February 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 20:03, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Relation?
Your summary in "Mystic Swordsman LV2" reminded me of Dino's usually respond whenever he edited them. So are you really him or his brother? -- F  r  e  d  C  a  t  15:39, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's prolly another guy. I was just adding the same property to a stream of similar cards; no need to bog it down with an explanation.

Designless Square (talk • contribs) 15:42, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * I meant by "Whee" part, it was post under you. -- F  r  e  d  C  a  t  15:44, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * I know. That's what I meant-
 * Oh, bugger. The mass classification was uncalled-for. "Destroys your opponent's Defense Position Monster Cards" only applies to cards that do that precisely, not cards like "Dark Hole".

Designless Square (talk • contribs) 16:13, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * What the... I don't ask for that, I only reasoning you as Dino's brother or something... -- F  r  e  d  C  a  t  16:25, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * I understood that. No, I'm unrelated and unconnected to Dinoguy. Designless Square (talk • contribs) 16:27, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, then please make your own quote and stop stealing other Admins' quotes because of their copyright. -- F  r  e  d  C  a  t  16:35, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Copyright? That's silly. I'll summarize edits differently if you want. Designless Square (talk • contribs) 16:38, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Your Page
I like your page, but Vanity's Emptiness is a Continuous Trap Card, not a Continuous Spell Card (I suggest moving it).
 * I missed that. Thanks! Designless Square (talk • contribs) 19:03, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think Burden of the Mighty is splashable. Decks that don't have much ATK like Gadgets can use Solidarity instead, or just cheap removal. As for Messenger of Peace, Marshmallon and Spirit Reaper are better "topdex" since they're harder to destroy. 207.233.120.2 (talk) 02:31, August 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * There are Decks that excel at monster destruction but not at Spell/Trap destruction, and those that can defend against one but not the other. So it can go both ways. And "Solidarity" doesn't work well outside of Gadgets and Dark Scorpions.

Is your signature supposed to have that box around it (caused by indentation)? BF2 Talk  Deck Guides 16:19, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Uh-huh. It's a box. An undecorated box. I don't consistently use it when I make repeated comments on the same page because it would get obnoxious. Or is it already obnoxious if it's intentional? Designless Square (talk • contribs) 16:38, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure. BF2 Talk  Deck Guides 16:54, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

Archetypes

 * We were actually discussing on moving that to a Family/Series category; instead of an Archetype. At Forum:Archetype_definition_(again).
 * -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 05:00, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

Archsupport.
Several things. One, "Generation Fish" is not an archetype, despite what the articles currently say. Waiting to see if the guy who put it up has any sound logic for it being an archetype. Two, if it was an archetype, "Fish Rain" would not be support. Even if a card supports every member of an archetype, it's not archsupport. It has to specifically mention the archetype's name in the lore. So "Fifth Hope" is "Elemental HERO" support but "The Sanctuary in the Sky" is not "Archlord" support. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 05:03, August 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * 'Kay, I'll stop for now, and if it's decided that it's not an archetype, I'll take the "archetype" banners down entirely. Thanks for the clarification. Designless Square (talk • contribs) 05:06, August 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * No problem. For the record, that parameter does get misused quite a bit. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 05:18, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

On "On Splashing"

 * Reborn Tengu no longer activates when detached.


 * Gaia Knight has the same ATK as Cosmic Fortress Gol'gar.


 * As per a recent judgment, the Colossal Fighter OTK no longer works.


 * Swords of Revealing Light is a bad card for Vehicroids. It doesn't help them.


 * You should mention that Burden doesn't work on Xyzs.


 * Diva would be a better example of a fragile Synchro-maker than Blizzard.

Sphinx
Forum:Deck Guide/Sphinx (Anubis). BF2 Talk  Deck Guides 00:18, October 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * The T.G. "variant" is just T.G. Beastdown with the Sphinxes splashed in. They're too high-Level. They don't jive.

Designless Square (talk • contribs) 05:01, October 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Resk suggested T.G.s, and it seems like it'd work. I'll brew up a little test deck. BF2 Talk  Deck Guides 16:52, October 14, 2011 (UTC)

"Judgment of Anubis" might be better than "Dark Bribe" if all you're doing is protecting your Traps. Designless Square (talk • contribs) 03:20, October 15, 2011 (UTC)

Sphinx 2
Forum:Deck Guide/Sphinx (Rock). This time I remembered to double check all my links... BF2 Talk  Deck Guides 17:37, October 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Good man. This needs expansion. You didn't mention that "Guardian Sphinx" has a reusable effect, which is critical. Expand more on the little flippers.

Designless Square (talk • contribs) 05:02, October 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. BF2 Talk  Deck Guides 16:49, October 14, 2011 (UTC)

Main Cards

 * Lighty has a "When...you can" effect. An "If...you can" effect can't miss the timing.
 * Solitaire has 100 less ATK than you think it does. It ties with Airbellum.
 * "Future Visions" doesn't Special Summon monsters; it just returns them. So Watery's effect doesn't activate.
 * Bluelink "Shrink" if you please.

Monsters

 * Split "'Fortune Lady Light and Fire'".
 * Capitalize "Tribute".
 * SUBJECTIVE: Consider giving Catoblepas main-Deck billing, as it's more common (and better) than Solitaire.
 * "Kinka-byo" is used with "Future Visions" to trigger Lighty's effect immediately and set up for "Fortune's Future".
 * Mention the correlation between the usefulness of "Tragoedia" and the variety of Levels you're packing.

Spells

 * SUBJECTIVE: In the TCG, "Nobleman of Crossout" can be used on your Set Lighty to banish it and activate its effect, and sets up for "Fortune's Future". It also works nicely alongside "Future Visions".

Traps

 * SUBJECTIVE: "Safe Zone" triggers the effect of Lighty when it's destroyed, can keep Darky alive to gain ATK, and can be chained to its own removal to kill an opposing monster.

Variants

 * List "Minefieldriller" in the Deck that uses it.

That's about it. Designless Square (talk • contribs) 04:51, October 18, 2011 (UTC)
