MasterOfTheDead's DECKcussion!!! #1

Hello, My Name Is MasterOfTheDead And Im Your DECKcussion Specialist! In This Topic You Will Read Some Of My Opinions On The TCG Known As "Yu-Gi-Oh!"

Todays Topic Is: Anti-Synchro Kat!

Welcome Reader!! We Are Gonna Talk About The Newest Up Coming Deck... Synchro Kat! So What I Did Was Ask A Random Person For A Random Build... We Dont Necessarily Need A "PRO" Build In Order To Stop The Decks IDEA... Everyone Will Have Something Different ANYWAY. So, Without Further A-do I Present The Random Synchro Kat Deck!

Monsters(19)
3x x-saber airbellum
2x rescue cat
2x summoner monk
3x gravekeeper spy
1x gravekeeper guard
2x mystic tomato
1x sangan
1x ryko lightsworn hunter
1x des koala
1x neo spacian dark panther
1x dark armed dragon
1x morphing jar

Ok, First Is The Monsters... Lets Take A Look At What We Need To Stop. Hmmmmmmmm, At First Glance I See That Special Summons Are A MUST in This Deck... Second I See That The OBV Kat Is A Big Card For The Deck. Most Monsters Are 1400 And Lower... SO Its Safe To Bet Bottomless Wont Help Here... Nor Will CCV... Im Seeing Quite A Few F/d Monsters. I also Seeing That Most Of The Monsters Have IMPORTANT Effects...

Card Recommended To Help Against The Monster Line-up:

Royal Oppression
Divine Wrath
Lightning Vortex
Skill Drain
Forbidden Chalice
Deck Devastation Virus(if you can swing it)
Nobleman Of Crossout
King Tiger Wanghu
Vanity Fiend
Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo
Mirror of oaths
Shield Crush
Soul Exchange
Mind Control

These Cards Listed Above Are All Cards That I See Help Against The Above Monsters! Im Sure There Are Other Combos Out There That Help, But Im Just Listing Off Random Singles Right Now... I Like How Forbidden Chalice Would negate Spy/monk/dad/Ryco... mirror would stop the kat/monk/spy... King tiger Wanghu Would Tear This Deck A New Tailhole... Deck Devastation Virus Would Cripple This Deck SO Much... Vanity And Fossil Keeps Spy/Monk/dad/tomato/kat from using effects...

Spells(17)
3x cold wave
3x pot of avarice
3x book of moon
2x allure of darkness
1x smashing ground
1x brain control
1x mind control
1x mst
1x heavy storm
1x monster reborn

hmmmmm, This Sure Puts A Damper On Things... I Didnt Account For The Cold Waves... Hmmmmm... ok, so cold wave is a big card for this deck... which means... youll need Something That Will Keep You Alive Until You Get Your S/Ts Back... These are Basic Spells No Need To WOrry About These other Than Cold Wave, MAybe Pot Of Avarice but other than that these are common spells in most decks today... you should be prepared for them.

Card Recommended To Help Against The Spell Line-up:

D.d. Crow
Threatning Roar OR Waboku
Dark Bribe
Magic Drain


Traps(4)
3x royal decree
1x torrential tribute

Now This Section Is Really Messes things up... I wouldnt main deck to much for this considering that this is player preference but i defiantly would have a side for something like this!

Card Recommended To Help Against The Trap Line-up:

Side Deck:
Twister
Mobius
Trap Eater
Breaker The Magical Warrior(if not mained)
Mystical Space Typhoon(If not mained)

Now Its Time To Hear What You Think... Any Other Combos/Cards That Cripple Synchro-kat that you know of, post them away...

Ok, With This The Article Is Over, I hope This Helps You In Your Search To Take Down The Broken Deck Known As Synchro Kat! If You Want Private Help With Any Deck, You Can Find Me and My Trained Staff At #helpdeck on IRC... Thanks Again For Reading And Have fun!!!

well i thought giant trap hole could tear them down when they summon rescue cat and then 2 airbellum. and maybe ccv. and i think another one that would help is like summon limit.

well sir, the only targets for ccv is dad and 3x air... i really think ccv isnt a useful card against this deck... big trap hole is limited to stoping ONLY rescucat which is semi'd... so your limited to 2 cards... summon limit is a good idea though... thanks for the input!

you could also try viantity lord. or you could use forced back on the summoner monk or rescue cat.

They're not going to to bring out cat or monk unless it's safe, meaning they've used heavy, mst, trunade or cold wave. It's better to run something like BTH, because it's more versatile. DDV/Oaths the most common way people trying to slow down Synchro Cat this format, but a lot of people running Destiny Cat which isn't nearly as affected by DDV. Grave control is also a decent tactic, not letting them recycle their rescue cat with POA can really slow em down.
