I've been getting a lot of strong reviews on both this deck and my control and I must say, both are doing incredibly well in matches. My control is currently 9/0/0 and this Dark Realm is 3/0/0.

Fixes/suggestions appreciated.

Yay! Dark World!

But where are your Blue?! Even with Angel's Gift, you need to have at least 2 Blue in your deck!:

-1 Silver
-1 Gold
+2 Blue

I think 3 Silver and Gold are too much and may clog up your hand too often.

Also:

-1 Pressured Collection
+1 Troops of Darkness

Allows you to bring back some Dark Realm monsters for more swarming.

Yeah, I don't know what Treasure of Revival is. I think you should try and add in another Passage to Dark Realm in there. Nice job

Clogging my hand is a good thing, it means I can go for an all out swarm with just a Hand Oblit and it also works out great due to the vast amount of people whoring Soul-Hunting Spirit a.k.a. Spirit Reaper.

Berserk King + Pressured Collection = Empty my oponants hand while swarming the field.

As far as I know it works, but i'm waiting on it's ruling. Some crap about it possibly being negated because of the activation of a Dark Realms summoning effect or something. If it doesn't work, then fuck fuck fuckity fuck.

Treasure of Revival a.k.a Card Of Safe Return = When a card is special summoned from the grave draw a card. Pretty much a staple in Dark Realm decks. Or so I'm learning anyway.

I'm not a pro with these decks as I've only built 1 of these before. So it's just trial and error so far. This doesn't really have my full attention at the moment as I'm playing around with hand attacking cards such as [Mind Crush] + [Dust Chute] and the such.

I have a couple of Hunter's in my sideboard, just incase I need that extra draw power. I'm still missing 5/6 cards for the sideboard, so any suggestions to that are welcome~

[Perfect Chaos]

Well for Sideboard...let's see...

2 Solemn Judgment
2 Mystic (or Killer) Tomato
2 Hunter of Dark World, Blue (MAINDECK this)
1 Dark Ruler Hades

Yeah...I'm drawing a blank after that...

-Sean

[Alucard]

I must be missing something really obvious because I still don't see why people deck it, but Tomato is for...? What exactly? the only card I can see it working with is Hunter of Dark Realm - Blue?

SideBoard - 15
1 Hurricane
2 Trap Hole
2 Saint Magician
1 Robbin' Goblin
1 Declaration of God
2 Map Of Buried Treasure
1 Transaction of Darkness
2 Scout of Dark Realm - Scar
1 Dangerous Machine Type 6
2 Hunter of Dark Realm - Blue

Trap Hole = An aggressive approach if need be.
Hurricane + Map Of Buried Treasure = Draw + Discard
Saint Magician = Bring back that Hand Oblit.
Declaration of God = Basic negation.
Transaction of Darkness = Again, negation.
Scout of Dark Realm - Scar = Searcher.
Dangerous Machine Type 6 = More swarm power + possible destruction + possible hand destruction of opponant.
Hunter of Dark Realm - Blue = Draw power.

Checking on a ruling with Robbin' Goblin. If it works right, they swarm lets me destroy opponants hand and leave them with nothing to do, also with Pressured Collection + Berserk King of Dark Realm - Brown it means a 2 card loss for oponant. But I have to confirm it first...

Shock horror! No Necro, No Hades and No Tomato! I'm thinking outside the box at the moment~

[Perfect Chaos]

Tomato can also help you get Tsukuyomi out (unless the ruling is that she can't be summoned that way cause she's a Spirit)

If not, then yeah, ignore Tomato.

I think Hades really fits the theme, because the Dark Realm monsters aren't TOO strong on their own (their effects only happen when you discard of course). So when they appear on the field after their effects go off, they don't have much protection on their own which Hades gives them.

Necro, I don't like putting her in because then you have to remove Fiends and you need as many Dark Realm monsters so you can just keep on swarming.

I don't see the point of all the Hand Control, cause Dark Realm is all about pure swarming the field to kill the opponent.

And Solemn Judgment > All negation cards ;x

[Killer Tomato] summon is a special summon, so it can't be used on [Tsukiyomi]~

I don't like using [Dark Ruler Hades] in a deck which discards my hand, because if I ditch it in the grave, it's a dead card that I can't get back, and there arn't really any reverse effect monsters to worry about now that [Cyber Pod] is banned, or is there~?

As for the hand control factor I've splashed in, it's a little experiment i'm trying out. I'll try explain it the best I can:

I activate [Robbin' Goblin] & [Pressured Collection]. Then attack with [Berserk King of Dark Realm - Brown]. I discard [Military God of Dark Realm - Gold] and my oponant discards 2. I special summon [Military God of Dark Realm - Gold] from it's effect and continue to swarm.

My oponant is -2 which means less things to remove/destroy my Dark Realms or protect there LP againts my swarm.

The next turn it's repeated but with an extra monster or 2 (Beserk King, Military God, etc), meaning -4 or even -5 from hand. That's a whole hand gone. What can you do if you have no hand? You draw 1 and then you're stuck. Unless you god draw something and destroy the whole field/deck lolz~

The only problem with [Declaration Of God] is 4000LP is pretty nasty to pay... which is usually why I only sideboard it~

[Nace]

Tomato can also help you get Tsukuyomi out (unless the ruling is that she can't be summoned that way cause she's a Spirit)

If not, then yeah, ignore Tomato.

Whoa, don't dismiss Tomato so fast there. Whilst it can't search for tsuku directly, it can search for sangan/critter, which opens up a lot of possiblities. I'd definitely put at least one tomato in, since you don't have many good first-turn plays and tomato works wonders on turn one

[Alucard]

Hmmm... I may consider splitting [Map Of Buried Treasure] and sideboarding one. My sideboards usually change about 10 or so times before I'm happy with them lolz~

EDIT: To be honest, I'm tempted to run a [Deck Destruction Virus Of Death] sideboard along with some othere disruption cards, but I'll hold off from that, for now atleast lolz~

[Nace]

Do you have DDVM in the side? With those 6 relatively-easy-to-summon dark monsters with >2000 atk you should be able to pull it of consistantly. Should help to counter those accursed reapers that everyone seems to be running...

Who said those Spirits would be a bad thing? This is a Dark Realm deck after all. Those Spirits would trigger BOTH effects~

Let's be logical here, do you think they're going to attack with them if they know you're using dark world? Besides, a def mode reaper can throw a wrench into any aggresive deck's gears, dark world's not excluded from that =/

[Alucard]

1 Shrink
1 Earth Crush
1 Brain Control
1 Book of Moon
1 Lightning Vortex
1 Forceful Transfer
2 Thunder of Dark Realm
1 Dangerous Machine Type 6

Total - 9

9/3 - That's 3 destruction cards for each Spirit ;x

I may fit it in the sideboard by losing the [Trap Hole]'s or in the main deck by removing a [Treasure of Revival]~ It gives me the chance to peek into my oponants hand and what they draw for 3 turns, so I can plan a few moves ahead~


[b]EDIT:/b] Rawk. Just found out my combo of mass discard is legal.
