It's no goodbye

I won't quit

Even though there's pretty nothing interesting for the TCG, I still want to play for fun.

Mermail is the best deck, and also the easiest to side against deck, which means every deck that can play Dimensional Fissure/Macro Cosmos has a chance (oh my Chaos Dragon D:)

I tried literally every good deck that people have been reminding me of (except Wind-Up, I just hate them for no reason lol). Kakakuri is still one of the best, simply because of the ability to dig the deck for Dimensional Fissure/Macro Cosmos. Roy St Clair's build, which included Genex Ally Remote, Karakuri 7749 Nanashick, Machine Duplication etc seems stupid at first but it really has potential. I'm saying this from the perspective of a long-time Karakuri players (I was playing KMP for 1 year, has everything ready for something big then Konami annouced the prohibition of Bulb D:)

Prophecy, being one of the most hyped deck after LTGY, is one of the most ignored deck right now lol. No Judgment = no goodness. I say "fuck it" and play Reaper Turbo, which has really good results thanks to DDV and EEV

Looking towards the near future (24 days to go), people are talking much about Evilswarm. Surely Ophion is a bitch, but without Kerykeion everything is still handleable. The eagerness for Evilswarm from people has made other good decks from HA07 seem underestimated

Let's not forget about the uninfected side, Constellar. Pleiades, just like Ophion, is a bitch. The Constellar theme is hyped like one year ago, and now with the help of Tenki that deck is just so good that the lack of Sombres isn't as bad as the lack of Kerykeion. Constellar plays 3 Sheratan 3 Algedi, 3 Pollux and 6 Kaust (Tenkis!) and ROTA and Xyz Reborn and some more shit which makes it the deck to expect in my opinion. They have just like 3 Stratos, 6 Kageki and 6 Kagemusha, 1 Monster Reborn, 3 Xyz Monster Reborn and their very own boss monster and also the hidden boss monster with the ability to reuse everything. Too good

Hieratic is also something good to expect thanks to the release of M7. Along with Volcasaurus, the ability to OTK opponent by turn 2-3 with 2-3 cards is scary as fuck

Giski, getting their Zeal Gigas, should be prepared for too. OTK combos that involves 2 Zeal Gigas only is exceptionally good considering Zeal Gigas has the ability to clear his path to do the 3200 damage. Even if you're unlucky enough to fail to pull the combo off, 3200 is still a big body and Salvage and Aquamirrorare bitches that can reuse everything

And Laval, one of a few synchro summoning themes left. Getting Molten Conduction Field is something huge, and Lavalval Chain is a good card. No matter how dominating Xyz monsters are, Shooting Quasar Dragon is still... incredible

Also Infernity. Thanks to Lavalval Chain, all the stupid earnings seem so easy to pull off. Top decking Archfiend is still sweet as fuck

Do you ever hear about Gem-Knight? Gem-Knight Fusion is a good card, and Gem-Knight Zirconia from HA07 opens a lot of combos for the deck

Good old decks also get some support. Gadget finally has Tin Goldfish so that they can make first turn Gear Gigant X/Shock Master more, also Abyss Dweller with 2200 ATK is annoying for Mermail people. Karakuri has Iron Call, which is basically a free synchro material (obviously better than Emergency Teleport)

You may say that the high-level themes die to Ophion. The only thing I can say is that I expect Fiendish Chain and Breakthrough Skill will have their price increased a lot soon. Let's not forget: If you target Ophion with Fiendish Chain and your opponent respond with Lance, the Chain still applies after the turn is over. And Evilswarm won't be having Kerykeion anytime soon, which means the ability to immediately make a second Ophion should be in doubt

Basically that's it, which means almost every card of HA07 is a good card

So every deck has a chance. Don't quit, people xD

(Don't talk about LTGY or JOTL here)
