If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.
Berserker Soul is kind of fun in Superheavyweight Samurai, You have very to no chance of drawing a spell (except that time on stream) and her, 3500 damage + the damage you delt on the direct attack is probably good for Game.

Is there any reason that you don't really see Double Summon much at all? It feels like it'd work well in a monarchs deck.
Also, is Obelisk worth running, potentially?

I don't use Double Summon because I feel like I never get it when I have enough monsters or I get it when I don't need it, ie dead draws. Obelisk with Monarch's sounds neat, might need to look at your Vassals to make it work though.

No, we wont be able to finish the tag tournament this week. Sunday is my monday, so I wont be around to record it. Unless Senerio wants to record and stream it.

Speaking of which

Let's talk about tag duel deck building

For this lesson, we're going to examine the original Team Xyz! This team was running a HAT deck and a Raid Raptor deck. Now on its own, HAT (Which stands for Hands, Artifacts, Traptrix.) was a rather powerful deck that got second place at 2014 Worlds, However its strength was.... neutred somewhat by being paired with Raid Raptors.

This is due to the shared field/deck split that comes with tag duels. Let's use Fire Hand as an example



Fire Hand is a wonderful card, not only on destruction does it summon Ice Hand (which can in turn summon Fire Hand) creating a nice stable chain, but it also takes one card with it on the way to the grave. combined with HATs stable of powerful traps and stun capabilities, It's a wonderful card.... in a singles duel. In a tag duel, there's at least 2 phases in which Fire Hand cannot search out Ice Hand. Because your ALLIES deck is considered "On Field" and if they do not happen to have Ice/Fire hand in their deck, then you're only getting a fraction of the cards power. One only has to look at Team Tribute to see their synergy. Both players were running Monarch Stun. So their cards worked in tandem to power one another up and each turn was essentially a turn of the same deck going with a new hand. Even if Castel blew a card into the deck, or Lightning Chidori bounced a card to the top, it wouldn't bug them because they're designed to play with those cards.

Raid Raptors are also an exclusive deck they work well with Raid Raptors and other winged beasts, it's like Blackwings in that regard. The other downside is if you must use separate decks in a tag duel, then each player should at least support the other one, by providing power or the like. Quarks Raid Raptors almost exclusively went INTO Raid Raptor Xyzs, which are low power. This is partially due to two Raidraptors having the resatriction of Only Raidraptor Special summons, however against a foe like Majesty's Fiend, who denies effect activations, the entire Raidraptor power base is crippled.

Two decks that can be powerful on their own wound up crippled gimps not just from their opponents stun, but because of their lack of synergy.

Imagine you're down to nothing and you draw Double Summon. Useless. That's not a reason not to run a card by itself, but Double Summon isn't powerful enough to justify it.

Imagine you survive the turn anyway and you draw a monster. Double Summon's still useless because you only have one monster in hand. That kills it.

Skull Servant

I ran double summon for a while when playing Madolches. Problem was it was super dead a lot of the time. You either draw it in your opening hand as a part of a good set up. If you don't manage that, its useless.

Double Summon is a bad card, and it ends up dead in your hand more often than not. Obelisk is also not worth running.

Yeah double summon is too much of a dead draw for it to be useful.
Also if you are running a deck that can rush 3 monsters onto the field you probably also qualify for something that can be more useful than Obelisk.
Or even just the effects and attacks of those three are better than Obelisk.

If you are running a earthbound immortal deck an Obelisk might be good, 4k/4k is nothing to be joked about, especially supported by Mound of the bound creator.
