T.G. And techs

Well I'm back again and today I'm gonna tell you guys about my opinions and impression of Tech Genus(Simply called T.G. or TG). Alright when I first watch 5D's and saw how Bruno Accel Synchro his TG Blade Blaster I immediately liked the deck. Plus they hawks a great ability that is to be treated as both Machine and their original types. And I'm over the moon when I heard they were to be released on EXVC. Which I spent $80 which I didn't actually regret it. But what struck me off guard was the fact that these cards do not have the treat as Machine types. But they are really better than Anime as I could search for a TG monster with a different name(It couldn't be the same monster) which is great as you could toolbox your way to milling out your deck.
But that's not the main point today I'm Going to talk about certain decks and decklist which I might come out with(March 2012 Format duh?!) but TG decks are pretty slow themselves but when combine with other decks to form Hybrid decks it's really broken. Once such examples were TG Agent Angels which were a Top Tier deck in the last format. TGAA(Short for TG Agent Angels) uses Earth to search out for Venus and pay 500 to get out Shine Balls then tune it with Earth for a Trishula or you could Overlay it for Gachi Gachi Gantetsu which is a purrrrrfect defense. But if there aren't any Earths the play would bring out Venus 1st to get out Shine Balls and stall it with Gantetsu.The play could then bring out Hyperions to attack. Another method is to immediately tune with TG Striker with Warwolf if you don't have Earth or even Venus you could summon striker. No Earth but have Striker and Venus? Great wait for your opponent to get out at least one monster then SS Striker normal Venus pay 1000 to get out Shine Balls tune it up for a Level 9 Trishula(September 2011) or Mist Wurm. There are many more strategies to this deck actually but these are some ideas of the deck. Unfortunately, this deck was crippled due to the limitation of Earth which made this deck much slower. Also since Trishula have been banned, players have to rely on other synchros and also Mist Wurm as their Level 9 option which Mist Wurm have a great effect in annoying your opponent flooding their hand(especially if it is Exceed like Utopia). As an OCG player I have seen lesser and lesser TGAA. In this current format Inzektors are far OP. Hieroglyphs are also another decks to look out for!
Anyway back to the TG topics, players also used certain TG cards to splash into their deck or create variants. Some decks are: TG Rhino Beatdown(This deck made Rush Rhino ram over monster with a boastful 2000 ATK monster. Trust me don't underestimate deck. I have tried playing it with my main deck(Last time now changed to Lavals and Gishki) which the guy(My friend) used Rush Rhino to keep direct attack me. And the only TG Synchros needed is TG Wonder Magician I ask my friend what is it for and he told me it was for popping the backrow and get a plus 1 when TG Wonder Magician is destroyed. Another deck Variant is a Synchro deck which uses Striker and of course Warwolf which tunes out Hyper Librarian and you get the idea.
So TG cards are splashable into any decks and that I don't recommend you running them as a deck. Not because they suck as a whole but they shouldn't be played in the current Meta or even format. Not if you're playing competitive. Alright that's all or today I'll see if I'll update more blogs tomorrow or the day after. This is YGO-Duel signing out~

Review:
NOTE: Play this deck at your own risk I have yet to test it out as I have no time building but roughly knows the strategy of course an OTK is possible if you get the right cards.
Basically this card uses the HERO Strategy to add Ocean to my hand for recycling and the Gishki Monsters to bring out their Ritual Spell. Ditch Ocean or anyother cards in your hand Ritual Summon out Soul Ogre use it to get right of BLS or even other pesky cards like Utopia in a stall deck(I don't have much examples). You could also fuse! Use Gishki Engines to get out Aquamirror then ditch. Use Aquamirror returning Ogre to hand and return Gishki Aquamirror back to your deck! It's recycling in a way! Ocean and Stratos to get out Absolute ZERO! If you guys don't see a synergy here then comment to me in the comments below!
