BUNOBLOCK! – A Majin Buu Hero Deck

This is just a silly idea that I ran with to see if it would be possible/feasible to run a deck with absolutely no blocks. I made it as a Dragon Ball deck, but I bet it could be made into a decent beatdown deck as well. In use, there are some decks it does really well against but I’d say it’s at the low end of the middle of the road (focused attacks go right through your defenses for one). But who knows, maybe it’ll inspire you to make one better! I run this deck as a Hero, just for the hell of it.

The premise of the deck is to have Majin Buu soak up damage while you ball out. Right off the bat, Majin Buu will prevent two life cards of damage from all attacks and Master Roshi Sensei will reduce an additional life card from energy attacks and physicals with a life card damage modifier, taking 3 life out of most attacks. If you up the ante with Orange Hiding Drill and Black Groveling Drill, you could be stopping up to seven life cards of damage per attack!

As mentioned before, this won’t do anything against Focused attacks nor will it stop you from losing power stages. And that’s where Bee Lv. 1 comes in. Not only does the little dog have a useful power for this deck, you can do some pretty manipulative power stage management with him out. For instance, you can use Majin Buu’s monster power stages to calculate damage and then redirect it all to poor little Bee. Majin Buu is still in control of combat, so you can then apply all his prevention powers to the damage Bee is taking. Master Roshi Sensei doesn’t work with power stage damage converted to life cards, but Majin Buu and the two prevention drills that you run sure do. Having Bee out really takes the bite out of physical attacks and maintains your power stages on your main.

I bet a big question you have is “Why run the Cell Saga Orange Mastery?” Well, the answer is that it was the most sensible mastery to run for me, since I have a distaste for the Majin Buu Saga Orange Style Mastery. First of all, the deck pretty much needs to be Orange, since you want to run Orange Hiding Drill. After that, as I alluded to earlier, physical beats could present a problem for the deck and this mastery helps stymie that. With Orange Conversion Drill out, any dead Non-Combats you draw during combat (and you run a lot of Non-Combats) can now become an attack. And since you’re performing the attack with an Orange Style card, Orange Conversion Drill can trigger your mastery. It’s a neat little trick that works in a small deck.

The rest of the cards should be self-explanatory. Tell me what you think, can a deck with no ability to block work?

Later BroZ!
