Luck based deck suggestions
As a lot of people are leaving MD until the current meta is hit, I've chosen to dive head first and face the meta with some stupid decks, the first of which will be an all luck based deck.

I want to know some of your favorite (more obscure) luck cards that you think might be good to include. I know the obvious selections but want to know of any lesser known cards I should use.

I know I'm going to get destroyed (as I lose over 90% of my matches regardless of what I play, I'm terrible at this game) but I will keep y'all updated with fun factor at least.

Have you heard of the "Tearlaments" archetype?

They're in the new pack and focus on getting lucky through milling their own cards and then using those to refill and summon stronger monsters.

They also mix well with a bunch of pretty ok nostalgia pandering Earth Fairies nobody asked for from the older Selection Pack.



On a side note I lost to a coin flip turbo deck in diamond 5 earlier this week. They opened Ms. Judge, Second Coin Toss and Head Judging so I basically got FTK'd

Yeah I know about tears, I want to stay away from using them, I prefer to play with bad decks just to see if I can win lol no hate on meta but I don't have fun playing those types of decks.

Did the luck deck you faced seem to work well? I mean I know you got FTK'd but like did they struggle? if that makes sense lol

It seemed like the most inconsistent mess one could make using 40 cards.

Flower Cardians are literally playing a different card game. For bonus points, they're an anime deck.

Maybe throw in Transmission Gear for the lulz? XD Makes it so that whenever your monster battles with another monster, both players have to play Rock Paper Scissors, and the loser banishes their battling monster face-down. The fact that this trap activates during damage calculation also means not a lot of cards can be activated in response to it. (just counter traps and stat-altering quick effects, iirc; as well as cards/effects that specifically state they can be activated during the damage step)

(and since it's affecting the players, monsters immune to card effects are NOT safe)

Run Fiend Comedian. I added it in into my chain burn deck & it's hilarious when it resolves against Tearlaments.

Fiend Comedian [Normal Trap]

Toss a coin and call it. If you call it right, all your opponent's cards in the Graveyard are removed from play immediately. If you call it wrong, send a number of cards equal to the cards in your opponent's Graveyard from your Deck to your Graveyard.

I run Trap Trick to get to it faster.

The most effective ones I can think of are-
Dice Jar: Chance of dealing up to 6K damage per flip to either player.

Pinpoint Dash: Both players reveal 1 card from their extra deck. If they're the same kind of card, summon yours. Otherwise, summon your opponent's.

Blind Destruction: Roll 2 dice. Destroy all monsters with a level lower than the dice roll total.

Destiny Board-field card: Coinflip for a half-damage magic cylinder effect on each enemy attack.

Lesser useful ones are-
One that makes it so each player flips a coin, and either loses or gains 2k LP, based on the flip. Dunno what it's called.

Needle something: Roll a die on during your standby phase or something. Destroy your opponent's monster in the corresponding zone.

Fairy Box: Coinflip to lower opponent's attacking monster's attack to 0.

I also find Slash Draw decks to be pretty fun. Pair it with that one spell that lets you rearrange the top 5 cards on your deck and Top Share, and you can get off OTKs.
Gets stopped by Ash though.
Also tried a FTK version of it by special summoning a Dark World monster to my opponent's field.

Sylvans.

Luck based deck, non-linear combos, and very RNG heavy. Not exactly a heads or tails/coin flip deck but my two cents.

Damn, that might be a good fit in my Zombie deck actually. (where it'd actually be more of a Xanatos Gambit)

You could try a Slash Draw deck.
There is challenge duel where it just coin toss. Try that. It so annoying to play against.

I'm not going to lie to y'all, I tried the luck based deck and it went well at first but then every duel after the duel I won with it (in ranked), I started drawing horrible hands like 5 duels in a row. like 3 of's and no monsters you know typical master duel rng that just changes once you're doing well. I uninstalled and switched to duel links lol

Same deal with using it in Tearlaments, especially since you can expect to be playing a lot of the mirror.
