Kitties_Outcast 0 Posted June 25, 2009 ok im trying to make an ibuki deck for a tourney this weekend, but it's not doing what i was hoping it would do -it's checking way too low -the attacks aren't really killers -my draws are horrific usually -along those same lines, i'm not getting what i need until it's too late anyway heres what i have so feel free to comment away...thanks evil ibuki ibuki4 actions: 14 final confrontation x3 kft x3 rejection x4 the anti k' x4 -basically with the actions i use anti k' to try to slow my opponent down, and hopefully i can use final con to either slow them down a lot or clear their board and wail on them with something...but 14 actions ouch (although anti k' is a decent foundation too) assets: 7 secret project x3 seal of cessation x4 olcabanned mentoring x4 -same concept with secret projects, try to slow them down while i have my ability to help...but there lies the problem i cant seem to check well when i dont use her ability or i check insanely when i do use it...dilemmas attacks: 9 gaishiki lunar rebellion x3 ichi no tachi x3 shadow flare x4 -here's my biggest need for improvement imo...all these 2 checks are killing me (smalls)...and i don't have the knight breaker, midnight launcher, etc group -ichi no tachi is because 9 times out of 10 ill need to commit something to do something... -im a huge fan of shadow flare...it makes all checks -1 and its 5 diff 7 dmg...but thats about it...it's nothing spectacular as far as a "kill card"...im debating evil illusion slam with multiple or dark rending with powerful...im debating evil plans with this since i have brt and anti k' -i like evil illusion slam because of it's ability, difficulty, and reversal ability...but 2 damage ...max of 6 really -i like dark rending because it's pumpable, has good base dmg, and its enhance is amazing...but it's very expensive (7 diff) foundations: 29 a beautiful nightmare x4 bitter rivals x4 brt x2 charismatic chester's banning x4 cutting edge x2 the gorgeous team x4 the red lotus of the sun x4 the ways of punishment x4 -mostly self explanatory...cutting edge is great with saving me as well as final con after...i only have 2 brt...with olcabanned not banned yet i only wanna run 1 charismatic (plus i only have 1 lol) total with character: 60 sideboard: 8 silver spoon x4 ayame's scarf x2 revenant's calling x2 any advice is appreciated thx for looking Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smazzurco 0 Posted June 26, 2009 Keep in mind olcadans and chesters are both banned...and LotM too actually. I know you said this weekend but just a heads up that in 5 days they are not legal. Here is a link to my ibuki deck...i focused on hunger for souls but it may give you some ideas. http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_foros_discusion.asp?efid=27&efcid=5&efidt=141049 IMO you are running too many assets/actions...which is something i frequently do lol.

Every name is taken 0 Posted June 27, 2009 I'm probably the only one that does this, and it's probably one of the worst ways to go about it, but I like: Ichi no TachiMega SpikeWindmill WasterCurse of the Ancient MarinerMeat Eater Spam high zone throws, Curse + Ibuki ability, use Meat Eater once for a sizeable pump Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Da_ghetto_gamer 0 Posted June 28, 2009 That would be epic and i would love to do that to someone if there was a way to make sure the reverse flayer did damage you wouldnt even need the hunger for souls on the end of it all but it would definitely help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

havoc10 0 Posted July 1, 2009 Opponent overextends on first turn = Ibuki kills them on her first turn. I have definitely killed people on my first turn going second after they played out their hand. Ichi - Flare - Launcher - Breaker on the first turn is usually pretty good. not to mention easy to pass for her. The problem is if you don't kill them you, you will probably die soon after... I have to say that the Evil attack line-up (Ichi/Flare/Launcher/Breaker) is more consistent and more reliable to kill with than the chaos line-up (Pleasure/Spike). The chaos line-up leaves you with tons more space to work with and seeing as there are less attacks, the average control is better. I like chaos better since it is more my style, but the evil build has better tech attacks, and there are quite a few other routes to go when building the deck that way.

dshaffer 0 Posted July 2, 2009 Ibuki really needs the Evil 101 attack line up to be successful. (Ichi, Flayer, Midnight Launcher, Knight Breaker) A cheaper way to do evil Ibuki that has a chance (IMO) is in combination with Path of the Master. Play as many cards as you can with Life, Chaos, and Evil and then pump with Path. For bonus fun, use Sting's Chaos Form with Path for extra card draw so long as you have the momentum. Good cards for this route are Feelings of Friendship, Purpose, Blinding Speed, Ice Coffin (Stun 4!), Sazan, and Uri Maki Gari. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
