| Subject: Dark World Archetype (March 2012) Thu Feb 23, 2012 5:17 pm | |
| The new March 2012 banlist is confirmed, and we now know that the META will consist of the following:1) Dino Rabbit
2) Wind-Ups
3) Inzectors---------------- HOW GOOD ARE DARK WORLDS IN THIS FORMAT? First we need to analyze the META to determine how well Dark Worlds will do this Format.
-Dino Rabbit: There biggest strength is Speed, and the ability to bring out big exceeds that can negate practically everything (Laggia & Dolkka).
-Wind-Ups: Their swarming capabilities are endless, and they can diminish your hand with an infinite loop.
-Inzectors: They thrive from a full field, being able to pop cards with hornet and other main Inzectors.
---------------- We all know that Dark Worlds rely on 2 main things: - Hand Advantage - Discard Outlet Without these two key and vital things, the Dark World decks fall and crumble. The 2 biggest problems I see for the Dark World archetype are: * Wind-Ups & Inzectors* Wind-Ups clear the hand, while the Inzectors clear the field. ---------------- So again the question arises: HOW VIABLE ARE THEY THIS FORMAT?
My personal opinion is that Dark Worlds are Tier 2 at best. They do have the potential of being Tier 1, but I can never see it getting to a Tier 0 level (unless more support comes for the archetype). ---------------- There is a new card that saw it's release in Order of Chaos:
- Trance Archfiend
This card has a broken effect in Dark Worlds which can be very devastating for other decks. You can Discard a monster, the card gains 500 ATK, and when it is destroyed you can add a banished Monster to hand.
(We all know how SUCKY it can be to lose a Grapha to a Bottomless Trap Hole, with Trance Archfiend we can get out Grapha back). ---------------- More Updates will come | |
