Forum:Gravekeeper deck, need help (tantara)

Hey everyone, this is my second deck posting so bear with me. I'm making a Gravekeeper's deck, which revolves around Necrovalley...duh... anyways, I've added a twist by adding Helpoemer, Ordeal of the Traveler, and Gravekeeper's Servant which all makes it very... unpleasant... for an opponent to attack. anyways, post what you think, rate, and give tips! Oh yeah, a major problem with this deck is hand advantage, so if anyone has any ideas to fix that... --Tantara 02:24, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

The only Draw card I know of that works well with Gravekeeper's is Allure of Darkness.Skavinger 02:52, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Replace the Owl of Lucks with Terraformings. SuperTeddy 05:56, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Well i use a gravekeepers deck to and i think you have to many cards to search out and protect necrovalley so i would remove 2x an owl of luck from your deck. I'm not realy a big fan of gravekeepers servant either so i would remove it 2x remove one magic jammer and remove one rite of spirit and then ad 2 bottomless trap holes and 2 sakuretsu armor's. If you want to ad extra drawing power ad cards like hand destruction and pot of averice.

 * Now I see the effect of Gravekeeper's Commandant, forget what I said. Remove all Trap/Magic Jammers, and Field Barrier too. Add cards Monster Reborn, Premature Burial, etc. SuperTeddy 07:45, 8 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey Romanovajax, the whole point of this deck is to get out Necrovalley right? That's why I have all of the search cards. well, Gravekeeper's commandent can be used for beatdown too... and the the point of the Magic Jammers, is to prevent heavy storms... Monster Reborn and Premature burial only work if I have Gravekeeper's Chief out... so.... Rite of Spirit allows me to special summon a gravekeeper monster from my graveyard, I'll use these to replace Monster Reborn and Premature Burial. ohh... and does dust tornado negate the activation of a spell or trap card? --Tantara 12:37, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

i know the point of the deck is getting necrovalley on the field but i think your kind of overdoing it. If you have to many cards to search out necrovalley your deck may not have enough other strategys becuase alot of times it's not enough to just have necrovalley on the field. A few strong traps and spells like sakuretsu armor and smashing ground are always usefull so try putting some in.
