Forum:Aggressive Rock Deck

Every single Rock Deck I've ever faced has been defensive. Why? For everyone else, it appears to work better. But rocks can also be very, very aggressive. Imagine a monster whose effect meant that it couldn't be destroyed by battle by 1 monster alone, except The Wicked Avatar, The Wicked Dreadroot and Cloudian - Eye of the Typhoon. Oh, wait, there is. It's called Gaia Plate the Earth Giant!

This Deck is split up into 4 main parts:

1. Rock beatdown - Gaia Plate the Earth Giant, Gigantes, Granmarg the Rock Monarch, Koa'ki Meiru Guardian, Koa'ki Meiru Sandman, and Guardian Sphinx, Legendary Jujitsu Master and Neo-Spacian Grand Mole as field clearers. Burden of the Mighty makes me more difficult to defeat in battle.

2. Getting cards into the Graveyard - Card Trooper, Morphing Jar, Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter, Card Destruction, Dark World Dealings, Hand Destruction, Destruction Jammer, Phoenix Wing Wind Blast and Rock Bombardment. In addition, I can Tribute Rock-Type monsters for Granmarg the Rock Monarch or Guardian Sphinx, and I can use the effects of the 2 Koa'ki Meirus to Tribute themselves.

3. Profiting from having cards in the Graveyard - Dandylion, Gaia Plate the Earth Giant, Call of the Haunted. Even Release from Stone is loosely connected here, as I am hoping to get cards in my Graveyard removed from play to summon Gaia Plate. This is why I included Gold Sarcophagus - the two work wonders together.

4. Protecting Gaia Plate - Burial from a Different Dimension, Destruction Jammer and the various ways to get monsters into my Graveyard covers this.

Give me your opinion, fixes, etc. on this deck. 88.110.176.201 15:04, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
