I look forward to seeing you in the standard dueling...

which is where real duelists go!

@1Charak2

Yusei, are you sure you're going to be okay dueling and standing? you're not going to try and mount your duel disk are you?

@Eklispe That being said, compare apples to apples. I mean tomatoes are also red fruit, but taste quite different than apples which taste different than potatoes.

I did not think I would get this done in time.

Name:
Zacharie Beau

Age:
17

Gender:
Male

Appearance:

[+]

Personality:
A book is a fortress from which Zacharie hides behind. Every page his bunker, the bindings his fortress. If he has reason to speak, he speak softly, with brief responses to the point of being taciturn. His accent is easily detectable, peppering in some common French in his longer responses. He will also refer to some of his cards by alternate names, which may confuse others. And yet the most interesting type sort of speech pattern to note is his usage of literary quotes to express himself and his thoughts on subject matter if asked. Without a strong personality either way, Zacharie tends to blend into the background, too deep in his fantasy literary world to be a part of this one.

History:
The Youngest of Five, Zacharie lives quietly in the shadow of his older siblings. Always keeping his head down in his books, or looking up to his four older brothers. It was not always easy to keep yourself preoccupied when you were nearly forgotten by the rest of the family. His father was the French Ambassador to the United States, and far too busy with work to bother noticing the home life which bounced around between France and America. His mother tried her best to accommodate for Zacharie, but her time was divided between four other boys leaving her ragged and tired. She died a few years after Zacharie was born, much to the family's grief, perhaps they blamed him, perhaps they didn't. Either way she has been gone for a decade now, and he was the only one left who hadn't gone off to university or work, leaving him the sole keeper of the home. This gave him the spare time to read through the volumes of literature left behind, stories of legends and myths, novels, classics, and everything in-between as he lived alone travelling back and forth between France and America. It was hard to make friends when you leave for a year at a time, so books and the fantastic characters he found in them were his friends.

Now how he ended up as a candidate for Duel Tower Academy is an interesting story. His grasp of the English language is, not as firm as it should be and he mistook "Duel Tower Academy" as "Dual Tower Academy" as he was going through some paperwork for applying to academic institutions to further his education. His father caught on eventually, and realized that this was not the prestigious university Zachaire thought it was. Albeit by then it was too late. Within a few weeks his son went from reading fiction to reading rulebooks on some Children's Card Game....

Um, have you guys seen my deck?

@Eklispe

But that's not even an archtype <_> more of a theme. Similar to Spellcaster's Command.

Archetype decks such as Lightsworn/Sams/Cyber Dragon/Gearg/BEWD/Firekings/atlanteans/dragunity/Darkworlds/Planets/Heros/monarchs/Machina

<Snipped quote>

I forgot to bring down Sacred Noble Knight to one I just did that right now. I removed Castel as well. Honestly I'm seriously thinking you're bagging on me a little too much dude. My deck is fine and it's nowhere near as strong as it could be. My usual noble knights run three of the king cards, masked heroes, and a bunch more xyz monsters. The archetype in itself has an easy way to bring out their boss monster. But then I have only one open back row, and non targeting effects make Artorgius cry. Also I dead hand easy if I don't get the right set.

@vancexentan

Are you kidding me?

Did you see my original decklist?
I pretty much had 32 Spellbook/Prophecy cards.
I now have 22. 1 of which isn't even a spellbook card proper, and 2 of which are Extra deck.

Just monsters alone you have 20 of your Archtype. (With multiples of some, effectively increasing draw/utility)
I don't see a non-archtype monster other than Maxx C which is a generic splashable utility card.

Throw in the noble arms and XYZ and you'll have over 30.

So what are you complaining about?

No not really, it all seems fair.

Cut down the Archtype by a bit. Removal of the additional SB Secrets does slow down the deck a bit on searching, as well as removing SB Power, and Justice.

The deck Theme hopefully can tell a story.

The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

Seems fine, although the idea with having exactly 1,3,5, and 7 was to make it more niche as they skipped the evens, the ranges make it more playable. Also I think you're using "it's" rather than "its" which is incorrect in the wording, although we know what you mean.

I'll allow that card as a semi-limited. That okay with you?

@Ammokkx

Sure. It's a tech card for modulations.

The idea is that if the levels are close enough, you can bring them closer together for an xyz, or further apart depending on what you increase or decrease. You can also stop special summons based on levels (however not ranks) by excluding levels outside the inside the bounds. But if you are trying to cover too broad of a range, both monsters get destroyed :I
