Playing this again every once in a while. Not top tier or anything but has a nice Wind-Up matchup.

Guaiba is just Guaiba, would never run the deck without him.His effect wins games on it's own and just the fact that he's a Dinosaur makes him instantly playable.

He allows you to slow Xyz into the Evolzars. If you play too many Stun monsters you are going to draw the Vanillas with cards like Snowman,Doomcal,etc. and the deck will be too slow.

No Night Assailant, because he just sucks when you draw him.

Originally wanted to play 3 Lances, but 2 worked fine so far. Maybe I'll make room for the third one later.

Traps are pretty obvious, except the Fiendish Chains. Fiendish Chain is just a better version of Effect Veiler. It doesn't suck when you draw it a turn later, it stops an attack
and freezes the monster permanently. Also , it's an out to Shock Master and freezing a Geargiarmor , then running over it with a Guaiba is just brutal.

so yeah, comments appreciated. ( I love this emoticon )

Not much to say, it's Dino Rabbit lol...

I haven't been feeling Fiendish Chain for a while now. If you want to run it that's fine but it doesn't seem to be it's format anymore.
Third Lance would be nice and Starlight is a good card here.
Night Assailant doesn't suck when you draw him. He kills stuff. I couldn't care less if you run him or not though.
I approve of no Torrential
I'd chuck some of the more useless xyz or Chimeratech for a third Laggia, Shock Master, Disigma, or all 3

That is all.

imho, guaibas shouldnt be used here, i think with the format populated with dark worlds, heroes and geargia, u arent going to get off guaibas effect much at all. i think it died last format when chaos dragons came along and has been dead ever since. y deny hand traps, 2 maxx c helps u draw ur rabbits

Guaiba is a dino. If you have a Dino out , every other Dino you summon will lead to a Laggia/Dolkka drop.
Dino+protection is better than Stun monster+protection most of the time.
Already tried running it without Guaiba and it sucked.

Maxx "C" is just garbage atm. They are going to OTK you anyway unless you have Veiler,Gorz,etc.
Another reason why I don't like hand traps is because they're inconsistent. They're dead when you draw them after your opponent made their play.

Drawing Night Ass sucks, because you usually want to summon a Dino and not waste the summon on him. Also sucks if you draw your second TGU target first and have a dead TGU in your deck.

I'll try the rest of the suggestions.
Thx guys.

well i cant argue with test results for guaiba, but i wouldnt say maxx c is garbage, ur deck runs heavy backrow so u easily have an answer to an otk attempt, u can simply maxx c, draw tons of cards then follow up with a mirror force, simple as that. also, ur opponent will often have to make overextensions to get over ur laggias and stuff, so maxx c is good in that respect too. if u do decide to test maxx c, add 2 torrential for obvious reasons, but i dont think u should immediately dismiss the card.

I don't dismiss cards immediately.(unless they're obviously subpar like Magic Cylinder )

I've tested Maxx "C" already and I don't like it at all. Drawing into Mirror Force doesn't matter because they're going to kill this turn not next turn. Yeah it can keep people from overextending, but only if you draw it at the right time. You have to play other hand traps if you want to play Maxx "C". There's no space in the deck and I think playing real traps is much better this format. Always depends on the meta.
(I'm talking about Rabbit.dek here, I would probably play Maxx "C" and other hand traps in Chaos Dragons for example)

So many Agents in the top 16. Gallade should have a boner right now.
And hey if Agents become more popular Guaiba will be much better.

well if uve tested it, theres not much more i can say xD cant argue with test results

There's not much you can say in general, because,like Harper said, it's Dino Rabbit. ^^

Edit: Not saying that it doesn't require thought to build this deck.

here's a different take on Rabbit:

Spoiler:

pretty much speed through the deck until you have Rabbit (+Tour Guide) ,then go for the kill.

Cardcar thins the deck by 2 cards, Duality lets you see 3 cards and Gold Sarc searches for Rabbit or for whatever you need at the time. ( Pot of Avarice,Dark Hole,etc.)

Tour Guide + Gold Sarc is pretty much game.

Looks gimmicky on paper , but I tested it a few times and it was actually pretty decent.

Maybe I was just lucky and this approach sucks, but hey at least I tried to be innovative.
