First Deck Fix: Eric's Flamvell Heroes.

Flamvell Heroes is a deck originally developed by CuDi` from Pojo, who called it Dark Synchro. Later on, S{t}ack, also from Pojo, further developed the deck, calling it SynchTurbo.

Both of these versions simply splashed the Flamvell engine (to varying degrees) into a LV 8-focused Dark Synchro/Skill Drain deck. Today, Eric's deck focuses a lot more on the Flamvells, also using some cool tricks like busting out Flamvell Uruquizas and actually being able to protect himself with Flamvell Counter. Flamvell Counter is an upgraded Dark Bribe for the Flamvell theme, and it doesn't cost a -1 either. Sounds like this could get to become an interesting deck.

Right off the bat, you should notice the inclusion of Decoy Dragon. The purpose of Decoy Dragon is to summon all of the LV 8's this deck can make. I'm not too sold on the viability of this strategy, until I noticed that Decoy Dragon is a wannabe Flamvell monster. Teching it was a smart choice, since it also functions as stall. Something I don't like in here in Destiny Hero - Plasma. Although I can see the comboes with Rekindling, teching 2 isn't that great. You should only play 1, since you have an effective 3 copies (Stratos/RotA into Stratos/Plasma itself.)

A better option is Diamond Dude. Diamond Dude hits so many critical, game winning spells in here it's not even funny. A superior Destiny Hero lineup would be 2x D-Dude/ 2x Malicious, and 1x Plasma. I'm a fan of a teched Doom Lord, but it doesn't contribute in here at all.

Also, maxing out on the Flamvells means that you are definitely going to open up dead once in a while. Since the purpose of maxing them is to run the Flamvell Counter card, I don't see why it's not maxed out. I would say take out one My Body as a Shield for a Flamvell Counter. Flamvell Counter is uncosted, and it also allows you to use Return from the Different Dimension more successfully. Although I like MBaaS, I would have to admit that a themed, costless Bribe is better.

Another thing is that Flamvell Magician doesn't need Flamvell Firedog to be live, since it can be used as a Tuner. I would suggest removing a Flamvell Firedog for a copy of Dark Grepher to solve double Malicious in hand.

Overall, I would have to say that this deck is pretty good. The overall fixes are:

-1 Destiny Hero - Plasma
-1 Flamvell Firedog
-1 My Body as a Shield

+1 Destiny Hero - Diamond Dude
+1 Dark Grepher
+1 Flamvell Counter
