Welcome to Gaia! ::

...I knew I forgot something. I need to -2 the Quillbolts in the maindeck because I got annoyed and tried to implement the Quillbolt Loop into the main deck rather than sideboarding it in during dire situations. Need to replace the maindeck ones. I figure I'll go for an anti-meta card. Maybe +1 Morphing Jar and +1 Prime Material Dragon. Thoughts?

I don't wanna go with a Foolish because there are a lot more searchers than just in the staples. In actuality, not counting Graveyard recruiters, there are 12+ searchers and +3 Millers in the deck. 3 Giant Germs, 1 Sangan, 3 Scrap Goblins, 3 Scrap Beasts, and 2 Scrapyards for searchers and then Scrapstorm is what mills the necessary monsters from deck to grave already, so Foolish is a smidgeon overkill.

As for a third Guts, I could see that, though the thing I am most concerned about is being forced to use it in a situation where Imperial Iron Wall isn't in play. So instead, maybe a Brain Control would suffice? It could work with any of my tuners (or non-tuners, depending) or even to tribute for Golem for the hell of it.

I thought that was coming out in Starstrike... but no matter. I think I'm running way too few Scraps to put it to full use, so I'll probably stock 'em, but not run 'em until Starstrike. Really REALLY good card, though. I just think that it's too early to be maindecked.

Even better: Chimera for Soldier, Synchro for Scrap Twin, destroy a Goblin to bounce two of their monsters, summon Soldier back, Guts for Chimera or 2 Golems (Assuming Chimera is picked), synchro for another Scrap Twin, pop second Goblin to bounce 2 more cards and grab a Golem, activate Golem to special Soldier, activate Polish, destroying Soldier for Golem, swing for massive damage.


...Oh dear god... Ultimate Offering for the Starstrike build. Dear god, yes.

I wanted to build Infernities, but my binder had been stolen a couple months ago that had every single one of my infernity cards in it as well as some cards I could very well have used for a large variety of decks.

As for current builds, I have my pride and joy of the past half-a year or so, being my Fish Synchro, which I adopted after the swift demise of my Dark Strike OTK deck (revolved around LV4 DARK Machines, Black Salvo and synchroing DSF, followed by using Metal Reflect Slimes, Barbaros, and Fusiliers as ammo, then using Dark Creator as a means of "reloading the ammo".)

I also have a variety of lesser decks built also that don't have as much punch as my Fish Synchro just made with my commons/rares that managed to escape theft. Arcana Force, Psychics, Warrior Gemini, Casters, and a bunch of other decks in the same kind of vein.

Who do you think gave Axean the idea to splash Red Nova and Shooting Star into Fish Synchro? *wink*

For OTK decks, I totally agree. But when it came to my Dark Strike OTK, it wasn't so much of an OTK as it was a generic burn deck. But it was OTK-able most of the time.

Also, I think my next Scrap build, when Starstrike comes out, is gonna get rid of the Iron Wall and have more support for the actual scraps, combined with some Gigastone Omega and Return From the Different Dimension things going on.

Well I've been hammering this particular deck out for weeks now, but the past couple of days have been the quickest and most productive. I do appreciate your help and I can only hope I can rely on your aid the next time I have a deck that needs building.
