Title: [Kagero] Flame of Purgatory (Vortex/Dauntless) [Need Help]
Post by: colonel830303 on December 11, 2014, 02:40:41 AM
G0(17):

1x Red Pulse Dracokid (FV)
7x Kagero Crits
3x Gattling Claw Dragon (Draw)
2x Seal Dragon, Artpitch (Draw)
4x Kagero Heals

G1(14):

4x Protect Orb Dragon (new PG)
2x Calamity Tower Wyvern
2x Dragon Monk, Gyokuryu
3x Lava Flow Dragon
3x Flame of Strength, Aetniki

G2(11):

4x Perdition Dragon, Whirlwind Dragon
3x Perdition Dragon, Dragonic Neoflame
4x Twilight Arrow Dragon

G3( 8 ):

4x Perdition Dragon, Vortex Dragonewt (Main)
4x Dauntless Drive Dragon

G-Zone( 8 ):

4x Imperial Flame Dragon King, Route Flare Dragon
4x Divine Dragon Knight, Mahmoud

General Strategy:

This deck primarily focuses on retiring with Strides/G2's while pumping up Gyokuryu for big numbers. Early Game just ditch the extra G3's/Lava Flow to perform stride for the triple drives while nuking your opponent's RG. Once they hit 4-5 damage BR Vortex on DDD and pressure with Vortex's legion skill as well as the restanding from Break Ride(minimum 36k swing twice). Hopefully you can finish the game from there.

This deck might be a bit CB heavy but Aetniki & Protect Orb can help once in a while if you're out of CB.

Ok you got DOTG,Vortex,and Dauntless. Are having troble with riding? If so reduce one G3.If not well is up to you,the thing is the smoother you ride the better you stride since you got more option in hand.Legion only if you can't stride.Have you tried Dragonic Blademaster over Vortex or DOTG (depends on your style)? If you like 2 Legion instead of 1 Legion and Break stride try pain laser since you can run 2 and it is still good (DOTG is good too tho,it depends on prefrence) 9 G3 is good in stride but I prefer 8 since Lava flow already fill the emergency stride cost (I tried 9 in my Royal and it screwed me so it depends on deck).

Dragonewt and Legion Overlord don't work together quite well because of their different mechanics so making them work together isn't that great.

I've played Vortex & the Great before. They are actually working fine together (DOTG as main, if your opponent doesnt call frontrow just slap on Vortex for the +1 damage).

Anyway I think the main problem with my deck is having too many G3 bosses and expecting them to work together. I'm more on dropping DOTG and go for DDD/Vortex/Strides cuz I want my deck to focus more on retiring rather than restanding all day.

You can probably do without Dauntless if you're not going to use the Unlimiter. It gives you the extra swings but it'd be really late while you're more focused on Legioning and Striding. Though, you could just drop it to 1 for triple swing Overlord or forcing them to intercept uselessly.

Some copies of the Generation Break Sutherland could be cool here. Perditions have a hell of a lot of variety now.

Great with Vortex isn't Great! It's a PUN!

actually they both go fine with each other as long as youre not relying on mareiko

DDD without the LB4 enabler isnt much of an issue in the current format (if your opponent decides to stuck you at 3, simply just stride all day untill you reach 4 or higher damage).

Speaking of Sutherland I'm actually thinking of using the new Dragon Monk (GB1 +5k power per retire) and the GB1 12k beater to fix the lane power.

It isn't much of an issue is what I'm trying to point out. Though, having it at 1-2 makes it fine here.

I wanna say use Tarayev for lane power but he won't work with Strides... Whirlwind has you mostly covered for a 12k swinger, so I'd go with the Dragon Monk.

First Update:

G1:

-1 Aetniki
+2 Gyokuryu (for the power boost)

G3:

-3 Dragonic Overlord the Great (Decide to drop it off because it contradicts with the purpose of the deck)
+2 Dauntless Drive Dragon (Ideal first ride which sets up later for Vortex)

dunno but why i still feel that new PG is bad..
well yes its unflip but it only can guard VG..
not a RG, its like when u face some unit with glory mael-like skill and they hit ur RG 1st or DOTX-DOTE hit ur RG 1st that PG become really useless..

The main problem with the new Perfects is Laurel and The X. Mind you, I'm calling Laurel getting restricted at some point.

It isn't entirely useless since it'd still keep you in the game instead of instantly losing to The X's second swing. Stride can make up for lost advantage too. Especially with Route Flare here clearing a column and Draw Triggers. Plus, nowadays, being able to unflip is a godsend since reusing your big skills defines the game.

Also Glory work on the old Perfects too, so...

Actually I realize that I dont CB that much since the strides help me a great deal on killing rear guards for CB-free. If you are afraid of the X or Laurel you can use the old PG if you want. It doesnt really matter majority of the time.
