Empty Jar Deck

Subject: Empty Jar Deck Mon Feb 06, 2012 11:38 pm

So, this is my main deck. Essentially, I've used a Mill Deck for years and this is the most recent iteration of it. I've seen it around the net being called Empty Jar, so I took the name on board.

Here it is:

Monsters (13) [13 Effect Monsters]:
3x A/D Changer
3x Deep Diver
1x Morphing Jar
3x Mystic Tomato
2x Needle Worm
1x Sangan

Spells (9x3):
3x Book of Eclipse
1x Book of Moon
3x Book of Taiyou
1x Card Destruction
1x Foolish Burial
3x Hand Destruction
3x Into the Void
2x Magical Stone Excavation
3x One Day of Peace
2x The Shallow Grave
3x Upstart Goblin

Traps (0)

Total: 40

I've toyed with the idea of reaplcing either Hand Destruction or Into the Void with Cup of Ace, but I'm not sure because Cup of Ace is reliant on the coin flip, whereas HD or ItV could help me get A/D Changer into the GY.

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Smile

Do you have a side deck? or is that what you posted it here for?
for a side, I would add;

[2] Starlight Road
[1] Leeching the light
[1] Shadow Imprisoning Mirror
[1] Glow Up Bulb
[1] Plague Spreader Zombie
[2] Vanity's fiend
[2] Solemn Warning
[1] Solemn Judgement
[1] Mirror Force or Torrential Tribute
[1] Trap Dust Shoot
[3] Tour Guide of The Underworld

Actually, fun (pointless) fact, since my first deck back when the game was new, I've never used a Side Deck for any of my Decks. Even my first serious deck (Clown Control) didn't have a Side Deck.

I'm thinking I may have to change that though.

The main reason I posted the list is to see if anyone could recommend potential fixes.

A Side deck is extremely useful, in competitive play you can counter your deck to specifically counter your opponents. The Key to a good deck is to make it very versatile, so you can side anything thing in for any situation.

Dexter Morgan recommends it Oh Shit

why is cyber end dragon in the extra deck?

It's a subtype of Empty Jar, called Jar of Illusions. Mill through their deck, draw cards from your own, summon Cyber End, Megamorph it, Limiter it, OTK.
