Water Ukyo of card clearing goodness

By Da_ghetto_gamer, in UFS Deck Building

So i decided that i really liked the new ukyo because hes got a good handsize and actually has above 18 life which is rare nowadays and he can keep himself alive with his enhance ability

once i started building the deck i realized that i need ways to get cards in the card pool and i immediately thought multiples i dont own any spikes so the next best thing i thought of was lunar slash which in theory was good but didnt really give me the kill power i need against certain characters or the versitility when my opponent knew what i was doing

so i went back to the drawing board that thats when i found the god card for this deck.....Boomerang Raid its amazing with ukyos ability and all the card pool clogging stuff that lu chen provides and its turned into a really really good deck this is what i have so far:

Character x1

Ukyo****

Foundations x 36

4x Chesters Backing 4/6 +1M
4x Chinese Boxing 3/4 +3M
3x Program Malfunction 3/5 +1M
4x Familiar Loyalty 2/5 +2M
4x Warrior Poet 2/4
4x Demuths Sponsorship 2/4 +0L
3x Shooting Capoera 2/4 +2M
2x Clean Freak 2/3 +2L
4x Aqua Kinesis 1/5 +3H
4x Empires Ruin 1/5 +2M

Attacks x15

4x Boomerang Raid 5/3 +2M
4x Chop 3/3 +1L
4x Leaping Snap Kick 3/3 +1M
3x Lunar Slash 6/1 +1M

Assets x4

4x Olcadans Mentoring 0/6 +0L

Actions x10

4x Masters Challenge 4/5 +3L
4x Tag Along 5/4
2x Top Turnbuckle +1M

Ok some of the key cards in the deck are:

Masters Challenge, leaping snap kick and warrior poet: Keeps my opponents card pool filled and unable to block while getting me to 5 cards and boosting the damage of my boomerang raid which is the real star in the deck

Top turnbuckle while bad in most decks shines in this one because with 5 or 6 cards in my opponents card my attack gets +12 damage and its not hard to put that many cards there plus when they try and block my other attacks it makes it even stronger late turn

Things i need in the deck:

Olcadans counters: i might want to splash good so i can grab red lotus for this job but i also would like torn hero some other anti control that good has

HIgh Blocks: really? only one card with a high block thats a real pain but i dont know how to fit any into the deck and i dont want to just go grab random cards for high blocks

Any suggestions are welcome in fact id love to hear some stuff about this deck it needs some fine tuning and i think it could be pretty good

come on guys really? I know the deck isnt perfect i want to know what you guys think i could do to make it better

You could throw in Soul of Ling Sheng Su for another high block and 6CC.

What's Demuth's do for you? Maybe I'm blind, but you don't really need the momentum, and even if you hit an attack it probably won't completely devestate their turn (oh no Leeping Snap Kick? I'll put a card face-down, oh no... now I continue beating your face/spamming Evil control jank/etc)

Edit: Derp Lunar Slash kinda likes momentum, I hear. I don't think that's really worth it with only Demuths + landing attacks as momentum, to set up for a 1cc attack that doesn't really win games on its own -- sure it fills your pool for Ukyo's F and draws cards, but it's hard to set up and not hugely profitable without that set up. I really like Shadow Blade just as a utility attack, or Dhalsim's Crouching Roundhouse as both a high block and even more insurance that your Banana Raid will connect.

I had this deck built ( I love Promo Ukyo) and it works very well although personally I think this Ukyo works better off of Good.

Water builds struggle for two reasons, no anti olcadans hurts. And Water lacks momentum generation.

Waffle- Ukyo needs momentum for both his multiples and for his ability to clear the cardpool. momentum is a must!

For anti olcadans water is screwed and doesnt have anything but some asset destruction like clean freak and Natures Force.

Id say max out on clean freak its awesome control when combined with Chinese Boxing and serves as a pivotal momentum gen if needed.

For momentum you need Natural Leader its a quick +2 momentum and way better than Demuths.

You need Soul of Li Sheng the 2/6 is vital for throwing out cards and is easily readied with Shooting Cap. Id prolly drop the Program Malfunction to decrease your high diff foundations and increase spam

If you have them Spike is infinityly better than Lunar Slash, the +2 card draw just isnt worth it combared to Stun 2, more damage and Reversal keyword.

Battle Prowess is really too good to overlook in here.

Lastly take a look into High Plasma Beam, its cheap and a great finisher attack.

yeah i was thinking about dropping the programs for natural leaders i need momentum gen for ukyos form and for lunar slash and yeah demuths is just for momentum and the occasional attack....lunar slashes played as reversals arent something to sneeze at

as for olcadan protection that is something the deck is lacking at but ive learned to play around it at least a little and if my opponent does land an olcadan or 2 then they have to take out my clean freaks first of im getting rid of them so it buys me a little time to set up the kill i usually dont want past turn 4 to try for the kill in this deck unless im playing against hardcore control and dont have a few chinese boxings and shooting caps on my side

as for the souls i would like to add them its another 6cc and a high block what should i take out for them? maybe the demuths?

and do you think its possible to dual symbol? good/water or is that too much to ask
