I'm basing this off one of my decks on Master Duel; I know there aren't supposed to be pendulums, so if we can't negotiate a version of Golden Whip Master with it's pendulum ability, I'm willing to swap out for another choice.

@RickyG85 So, reading over that, seems fine. Although i will say that Amazoness Queen is not what i'd personally describe as "A big beasty" Might i suggest Amazoness Pet Liger King? Apart from that, yeah, looks fine.

@webboysurf Very nice. Approved.

@Randomguy Kinda the same problem with Ricky's. One of the things that i think a deck needs for the sake of narrative is at least 1 big beastie type. Red Eyes Black Dragon, Gate Guardian, Fortress Whale, the thing that your character can aura-farm as it shakes the world with its might Show the bad guy you mean business And look like an absolute boss doing so. If you're trying to keep to the Gravekeeper's theme, might i recommend one of the Sphinx cards?

Why is there a Mirror Force specific to Dark Magicians?

@Cat22 A lot of Yugi's cards got retrains for Dark Magician themes to help them survive in the modern era.

Am I allowed to just make the Gravekeeper's version of Pharaonic Guardian Sphinx? Like this

@Randomguy I'd rather you just use an actual card, it keeps everything simple.

Also, can people who have had their characters accepted please put them in the Character Tab?

My sheet is about done. Just need to do the bio. Sorry for the late entry, had some personal family junk. And real quick, how would field spells work here?

It's basically the same card, just changing it to spellcaster instead of rock, and making it part of the gravekeeper's since I figured in universe, it make more sense for her to use that card since Gravekeeper's archetype whole thing is to limit special summoning except for gravekeeper, so it would make sense to stick with that archetype.

But I don't mind using vanilla, since actual duel isn't really a thing from what I gathered. I just figured it would make more sense in universe

@Randomguy As i said, this is supposed to be a thematic RP as opposed to actual cardgame viability. So, going with multiple themes within the deck is not only viable, but also encouraged. I mean, Yugi's boss monster was his Dark Magician, but he had plenty of other archetypes within the deck as well. Magnet Warriors, Gear Gadgets, Kuriboh's. I'd actively prefer people go nuts than just try to focus on 1 specific archetype.

I'd honestly forgotten about this, sorry about that.

Does this mean I could add the Danger! archetype to my list?

Question: Does that mean summoning condition is still a thing, or...? Take for example, uh...something like Eradicator Warlock, the text says 'it can only be special summoned by sacrificing dark magician' does that mean in this case, Dark Magician needed to be 'summoned' first before Eradicator Warlock can appear? Or are we going full Yugi during the Millennium World arc where he just summon the god cards?

Did you mean for this to come off as... I dunno, snide?

Edit to add: You... read the original post, right?

@Randomguy I mean, yes, but think about it as an upgrade. Like, Dark Magician turning into Eradicator Magician or Sorcerer of Dark Magic.

No, not really, I'm just trying to understand where this falls in the spectrum of 'pure magic' and 'actual duel'

I get that from the opening post that we're not doing actual duels, not really. But even in the manga when Atem was reliving the Pharaoh's memory there is still this spectrum of him summoning the egyptian gods and whatnot that are just pure magic.



...And then on the other end there are parts when Yugi and Jounochi showed up to help when it is more game-y since they actually draw cards, they just ignore summoning condition, like yugi summoning Dark Magician without tribute



And since the deckbox in the character sheet included spell and trap, which seems to me to be more game-y, whereas say, in Atem's and his retainers' case the spells and traps are just more actual magic spells cast by the spirit they summon, like that proto dark magician summoned by Mahado casting spellbinding circle, I'm trying to get an sense of where the line is.

Anyway, @mattmanganon I've revised my deck box list
