War team qualification question

maybe you should post something that is a little easier because the test by the captain should be a challenge enough

A hint for everyone.2 heads is better than one,but that also increases the chance of rocking out to hard lol

i got within a 100 lp. thats def close enough

this is really hard

Survival of the fittest sammy; Survival of the fittest. Only the best get this privilege, makes sense to be hard.

Chingling has answered the question correctly (close enough).

but i mean seriously moondar, you can be good at dueling but not be able to figure this out, i know its good for situational aspects but sometimes you just cant figure them out

im not gonna lie, this situation is quite preposterous. the odds of getting 3 dragon master knight out all on the field is low enough w/o including the fact that pretty much no one uses him.

disregard the fact of how unlikely the situation is. just destroy everything and get his lp as low as possible

srry azn, but my thought process defies ignoring something on that scale of ridiculousness. and you COULD pick something more realistic DHalo.The LP are understandable, but the monster set-up is more unrealistic and ridiculous than the ones from the GX game questions.

Not only is this insanely unrealistic, there are a lot of problems with this kind of mind set. This is actually the exact mindset we don't want in a competitive war team. The attitude of going all out for a play is what you want to avoid. In reality, we want players who would say nuke field, use gustkraken and sit on it for a little, since ur opponent seems like they can't just topdeck, since they need fusion material and all. What we need are smart players who do the smart thing, not just recklessly rush in and use up most of their advantage on an easily stopped play. We want players who will think "they probably have veiler or breakthrough skill to stop me" since if they have either of those cards, neither your convoluted play nor my stalling tactic will work, also veiler and breakthrough skill are far more likely than something like fader or honest. We want players who will consider the following: face-downs, hand traps, and their own resources. The thing we want the least are players who will use up their hand in a convoluted easily stopped play that will end in absolute disaster if even one thing goes wrong, without even a 2k monster to be sat on, not like it helps if they have dragon master knight, but in many other situations, it ends up saving your life.

Actually Halo, when i lose, most of the time it's because I do stupid things like the play to win this. I think its pretty rediculous that you say its a safe play even though you're using up everything to do this. When you have triple dragon master knight, you don't set bluffs, and quite frankly if your opponent has 2 cards facedown while you have none, you generally want to assume they have solemn judgement or starlight road. I hate when you say hand advantage doesn't matter when quite frankly, it does. Have you ever noticed why meta decks are, well, meta? It's because they can rapidly increase hand or field advantage, like the shark-magician combo which let wind-ups fill their field with almost none of their hand used at all. This hand they keep often contains either ways to stop their opponent or a play they want to make if need be, not immediately, so that they don't overextend (something i sometimes think you have no concept of). I'm not trapped, i just prefer a more conservative play style, and when i make very aggressive plays, there always has to be a backup plan for me, which is why I enjoy heroes, which generally have answers for everything and can summon powerful monsters like the shining just by using one card from hand (miracle fusion). In addition, they can gain steady advantage with stratos, which I have used 4 times in a single duel, and the final time got me the bubbleman -> excalibur play that won me the duel, I also had a miracle fusion and solemn judgement facedown so that I had protection and a backup plan. Not only that, I had two other traps which, i believe were fiendish chain and solemn warning. My opponent had only one card in hand because he went on a crazy play like this to get rid of a 3800 shining, but used up his advantage and was punished when I torrentialled and got back my stratos (nothing else because I was going for the bubbleman play). Likewise, I have gone double excalibur and one shining in desperation, and lost to dark worlds because I got mirror forced (or was it torrential? Can't quite remember i just cant see the difference since i just remember taking a 3k grapha attack for game). There are just too many powerful stopping cards in this game to throw caution into the wind and make plays like this (I forgot to mention fiendish in last post too lol).

What kind of question are these so difficult.

Ive tried doing this puzzle many times and im sure you can win with that hand but I can't see how you can win specifically in that turn.

i figured it out after like 6 hours.

And to comment on that fight, this play can be played safe and setting yourself up to win at the same time so you really are not going all in because if you go for gustav early then you would see what is in theif hand, and you have so many options that i think its overextending after you allready have the field clearred

he has 2 set sammy, what if one of them is a solemn warning? you wouldn't get to see their hand (never saw gustav b4 as i haven't tried this yet, i'll assume it's an on summon eff).

then he loses 2000 life points, and you can still wipe out the rest of his field

Damn, you guys are really getting into it. Both have valid points.

i personally agree with dhalo. go big or go home. no fun if u dont take chances

You know, its pretty funny how you mention heavy storm and then just completely forget about it for the convinience of your argument. stop g spark and super poly? its kool bro heavy storm. By the way, you do realize that I run excalibur for a reason right? I often win entire duels on only xyz so don't talk about shutting me down with only ophion, heck ophion cant even get over utopia, so I don't really see your point there. I also run miracle fusion. so good luck only taking out my super poly and gem spark, take out any two of those and i still have options. Heroes are not a deck easily locked down, I can even play around macro if I want or need to. By the way, I think anyone with this kind of hand vs an opponents field like that would think of some way to win. It just might not be an otk. The craziest I would get would probably be summon the black rose and nuke field, nothing less. I might summon another monster for protection, but that's it. I really don't see hand advantage as a trap like you do though. Thinking about plays so that they don't exhaust your hand just seems like common sense to me. I get that the point is to overcome a hopless situation, but if you have one for one, monster reborn, foolish, and miracle, you definately have a recipe for success. especially since they're opponent is obviously bad, since they're overextending by summoning three dragon master knights
