Deckbuilding Revisited – Part One of Three
|
It's time to update my Deckbuilding Articles with new examples and some clarifications from before. Today I'll cover selecting a strategy for your deck and building Stage 2 Evolution lines for your decks.

|
Infernape
|
With the rotation of the format, many decks fell apart. However, one deck remained strong: Infernape. This is one of the strongest cards ever printed. For simply two Fire Energy, Flare Blitz does 90 damage.

Absolutions
|
Now that US Nationals and Worlds are over, let's revisit the deck that won both of those tournaments in the Masters division – Absolutions.

Chicago Area Battle Roads
|
I showed up about 15 minutes before the registration was about to start, thinking that some people would at least appear before that time, like they usually do at most other tournaments...
|
|
Rockford, IL Battle Road
|
I played Electranite again, and yet again I made a couple of minor modifications to the deck. I knew going in that Rockford is one of the toughest metagames in the United States, boasting at least 10 of the top 50 players by ranking in North America.

|
San Antonio, TX Battle Road - Day 2
|
I decided that the Electranite was simply too good on the first day of competition, and went with it again on the second day. Of course, I made some fairly minor adjustments to the deck between days.

San Antonio, TX Battle Road

Realizing the Conceptual
|
These cards make the deck functional to a degree that no other deck in the game has yet accomplished; rather than making an attempt to gain raw card advantage they allow simple, straightforward improvement of your hand.

Naruto TCG - Complete Game Review
|
When something gets as big and popular as the anime Naruto has, it's almost a given that it will eventually have a TCG made out of it.

Looking Back: Shonen Jump Orlando
|
After a weekend filled with decks trying to stop Light and Darkness Dragon, we are still crowning a champion who uses two copies in the main deck. Shonen Jump Orlando had so much more then that, though, and I hope to get to them all here today.

The Absence of Light
|
With no previous standards to work off of here in America yet, we all should have an open mind as far as what cards could be played in a deck like this...

The Thunderstorm
|
Once again I am back to give you a new idea for a deck to use. This deck I have been working on for about two weeks now and I must say it is really good...

|
Pentagon Attack
|
I'm back to introduce you to a new deck I have been working on for the past couple of weeks. This deck utilizes Jutsus that I believe are extremely underrated. These Jutsus are so good that when used they can turn the game around in your favor and they almost guarantee you a win.
