Forum:Formula Ice Barriers

Ok, I've been looking around at the ice barriers for a while, and saw some really good ones, especially the one with treeborn. However, I tried out the deck, and it was ok. I've revamped it so moves relatively fast. I've tested it out against my friends, and it works fairly well.

So I know I am missing Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier, and Pot of Duality, but that is simply because they are out of my price range.

The main focus of the deck is to swarm by synchro or from the graveyard. By dropping cards for Fishborg Blaster, it is very easy to resummon them from the graveyard using General Gantala's effect. An example would be to have both an Treeborn Frog and Fishborg blaster in the graveyard. Special summon Treeborn, and Drop an Ice Barrier to the graveyard for fishborg. Tribute both for Gantala. At the end phase, either summon an Ice barrier synchro, or the card that you dropped into the graveyard for the Ice Barriers. This can also work in the favor of synchro summoning. Given that your cards are still on the field, you can syncrho with an ice barrier (ex: brionac + formula = stardust) and then bring him back again at the end of the turn using Gantala's effect.

Synchro summoning isn't that hard either, considering the majority of the deck is water, which means fishborg can be synchroed with almost any card in the deck. It can be synchroed with a 4 starred monster to make to make brionac (given treeborn and fishborg in the graveyard). Also Geomancer, Defender, and Genex Controller all work really well as 3 star tuners to tune for 6 or 7 starred monsters.

Finally, you can lock down the opponent using defender, Dai-Sojo, and Gantala. Defender helps stop them from attacking your cards, While Dai-Sojo stops them from being destroyed with spell or traps. With Gantala resummoning from the graveyard, and treeborn always replenishing the tribute, it isn't that hard to get these cards out.

My only trouble is decks that remove from play, and decks that stop me in the graveyard. I can't use Imperial Iron Wall, because it messes up the treeborn + fishborg combo. Any help getting around this is greatly appreciated.

Please comment on the deck, such as ways it could be sped up, or made better. All help is appreciated.--HiddenLight333 (talk • contribs) 22:00, May 26, 2011 (UTC)HiddenLight333
