Gladiator beasts...

Everyone who dose not use them hates them but they will not be hit by the ban listany time soon because there are many ways to ruin them eg:summon limit, deck lockdown (i understand its temporary) vanitys ruler plasma,skill drain, the list goes on.also their stats are not exactly record breaking. --Marshall565 15:14, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Actual limits

I don't use gladiator beast, but I love fightning agaisnt them, cuz those and 6 samurai really make me sweat. I played so many times agiasnt them that I think that the only gladiators beasts that should be banned are bestiari (good job upper deck) and murmillo, cuz he appears so quickly and kills my monsters so freacking easly. A friend of mine that uses gladiator beast has them all, but he only has one copy of murmillo, so I feel so relieved when I kill it. I just can't think of how frustrating would be fighting a deck with 3 murmillos (they will never end!!).

Gyazarus is ok, cuz now days is kinda hard to summon him tnks to the banning of bestiari. Anyways, even thought GB are sometimes frustrating, I love themcuz they represent teamwork, and alos cuz they are hard, but not impossible to beat (is not like one of those crazy decks that summons u 6 monsters in one turn and destroys all ure cards by paying a ridiculous amount of lifepoints)

  • You mean the decks like psychics :P They have OTK's going for them with the new field +_+ Mind master spam that gets out all the monsters in deck!!!! Only downside is MST lolz (Slightly joking here, they are getting more powerful but not broken at all). I dunno, to me Glad beasts don't represent teamwork as much as six sams do. I mean for six sams to work you must have diff name six sams on the field! Glads would have been taken down to fair levels with the new ban list if samnite didn't get made. Rescue cat is seriously abused though and that should be limited. Otherwise GB's suffer so much with bottomless nowadays and I am amazed how they can come back from anything, and I mean anything! All it takes is a rescue cat or a well placed Waboku/something to make an attack go through. Its not like a few other decks which can pull a win out of their rear quarters :P (Though Judgment dragon = Win from behind!).
  • Fighting GB's for me is both annoying/irritating and exciting, I am really happy when I activate bottomless in response to them summoning two samnites with rescue cat (To use test tiger in hand to tag in for Bestiari-gyzarus-whatever). Its really funny when they only run two copies and their engine goes away XD. Same with bottomlessing bestiari...but thats still not as good. Anyway GB ppl only run one murmillo b/c they don't want to draw them, its not like they cant revive from grave anyway with Darius to bring it back then tag for herk so its back in the deck!--Takuma. 04:51, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

biggest gripe

the basic gbs dont bother me its just herk that gets to me. The large combo that busts out gyz blowing up my two cards then finishs with herk in one turn from turn 1 pisses me off alittle. I could do the same thing in my deck with just future fusion, dark armed dragon. and the dark creator. But at least for that two of those cards are limited while the ones that the gbs use are semi limited at best and unlimited usually Steelfallenangel 18:12, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

  • IMHO, it's not so much Bestiari, Murmillo, Samnite, Test Tiger, Gyzarus or Heraklinos, as it is War Chariot and Equeste. I mean, seriously, 75% of current decks rely on monster effects and GBs get 3 free recyclable and (with Samnite) searchable Divine Wraths? What's with that? Heraklinos-Chariot Lock must be one of the most irritating things ever. And if they use Chariot, they get Equeste to get it back and re-set it! I believe that Chariot should go to 1, as well as Equeste and Samnite, OR Rescue Cat to 1, Samnite to 2 and Chariot to 1. Chariot is the main reason I hate GB matchups, cause it's so unfair. If it at least STAYED in the grave, I'd be ok, but nooo, we have to recycle it too, so that monster effects will be no-go throughout the whole duel! I dunno what you guys think, but that's my take. --Darth Covah (Talk | Contribs) 10:55, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Rescue Cat Situation / Lockdown

IDK about the limiting of Rescue Cat to 1. Theres enough searchers that can bring it out that bringing it down to one may not have as big of a splash as others may think. But your right about the lockdown of spell trap and effect. For a archtype that already has so much destruction for them to allow them that kind of lockdown is alittle riduculas. Any other deck type that has the kind of desctruction that glad beasts have does not nearly have as much protection. Let alone such a diffucult weakness to make use of. I can not even for the life of me think of such a complete reliable lockdown anywhere else. I mean you could have the Jinzo/Horus lv8 lock but that still leaves out monster effects which have few counters let alone permant or recyclable ones. The only permant one I can figure would be Angel 07 but then that screws over the other two.68.40.90.250 21:51, 31 May 2009 (UTC)


Limiting

They will probally limit rescue cat but thats okay airbellum is out in the tcg so gladiator beast decks are still balanced.--Airbellum 20:13, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

about lockdowns

about the heraclinos chariot lockdown,i know only one other lockdown like it and it is far harder the dragon lockdown it involves stardust dragon assault mode horus lv 8 and royal decree but like i said it is not nearly as fast as de hera lockdown Knightofwhitedragon 10:30, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Have Gladiators Had Their Day?

As a gladiator beast player and a blackwing player I think that as blackwings get new cards from ancient prophecy and stardust overdrive they will eventually become greater than gladiators. I think that gladiators have reached their limit now and the probable limiting of rescue cat will only make them weaker, allowing faster blackwing builds to blow them out of the water.(unless of course some blackwings get limited too, which I can't see happening anytime soon)--Littledj25 18:41, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I honestly think that Bestiari should become semi - limited, and rescue cat should be limited. Glads lose a cat, but gain a Bestiari (which, although not as good as 2 cats, would sort of make up for the cat limit.) Of course, this is coming from a gladiator beast player. ~Waffles!!!~ 17:33, 10 August 2009 (UTC)


~Waffles!!!~, I completely agree with your suggestions. But, if you want to make GBs the new Zombies, I will agree with Darth Covah. I don't think War Chariot, Samnite, Heraklinos, or Equeste hate will stop the problem. The problem lies in Gyzarus and Bestiari. The instant destruction of two cards is where it gets broken.
What I suggest doing, you ask? Limit Rescue Cat. These days, the usual cause of an Equeste, Gyzarus, Samnite, and Secutor (which isn't being used as often these days), is Rescue Cat. I know this because I use - and duel against - a Gladiator Beast deck weekly. -bewk
