Shadow of Obsidian (AI3 Gargoyle Deck)

Oh.  My friend was using it for T50 and claimed to like it.  Switching to AI3 now.

Some drain lifes couldn't hurt.

IMO, liquid shadow goes better on dragons than gargoyles.

But they die faster, and even AI3s can pack in miracles/heals.
And if you stop using liquid shadow on them to make them survive, you have no chance of getting an EM.

I doubt this will work especially well for top 50. I won a few games while testing it, but lobotomizers and antimatter kill this deck completely.

Drain Lifes would help, but so would steals. My deck is just a base deck, very customizeable. You could easily replace the titanium shield/ vamp dagger for 2 drain lifes.

Dont take this the wrong way, but what can this do that standard mono dark can not?

In reality, nothing. It does do the vampires much better than the standard mono dark (It would be very hard to make a complete deck relying on unupgraded vampires), doing at most 6 damage a turn per gargoyle (and healing the same amount).
Unfortunately, it does this at the cost of more cards to get this improved version of a vampire.
Really it is probably loses more than a mono dark (it has much less control), but it has a much higher chance of getting an EM.

Also, you get to use gargoyles. (I like Gargoyles )

Well then i suppose its more of a matter of playstyle and taste in monsters.

That big red warning won't stop me, I've updated this deck, and am going to show it off! Yes, it took me since May to complete it, a long process of testing, revising, tearing my hair out and testing more (Or making it, forgetting about it, and coming back to one day).
I've added some tips, a cooler name, and ignored my own advice about Earthquake, worked much better than I had imagined.
So go on and enjoy the deck.
