Ally Crush has been testing magnificently well if drawn early or fetched at open hand and late game it's not that bad.
It bluffs a spy, recruiter and since many duelists side in Cyber Dragon against GKs..this card is a pretty good out to that.
Everything else is basic i guess ._.

What is that 2nd Compulsory? And I assume the 2nd "3 Commandant" is Descendant.

Ya Descendant and that 2nd CED is Royal Oppression, fixed

-1 crusher
-1 recruiter

+1 gale (good effect and a tuner
+1 spirit reaper (stalls and good effect)

-1 7 tools (u haave too many cards to pay lps maybe it become a dead draw)
+1 stele (3 stele makes u draw 1/2 of them faster plus u run 12 GKs monsters so it wont b so dead)

also i say desc isnt that good maybe 2 desc and 2 assailant is better
and ced is a -1 specially vs light beat decks i prefer it in side and +1 more d.prison
hope those fixes works

I would disagree with Placido about some things. Recruiter, in a GK deck you just cant have less than 3x Recruiter, its a law and there is nothing you can do about it. This applies of course only for consistent and competitive GK deck.

Also it is proved many times that new GKs with Recruiter engine don't need anything like Gale or Reaper. Those cards just ruin flow of awesomeness there. Also EJ, I like that Crusher tech of you. That card is not just some random staple but a card that gives you advantage once you normal summon the turn after it defended your LP successfully with 2000 DEF.

As Placido said you should pay attention to your LP with those high cost traps. Since Solemns are very important I would drop one Seven Tools for another CED or just third Dimensional Prison. CED is good for Royal Tribute too.

Umm.. I have been playing lately with gks and mst isn't that needed imo, I would run an allure instead of it, also you can keep the second mst or maybe add a veiler?

Edit: I just saw placido's post... recruiter makes the deck tier 1...

Msts have become a personal preference in GKs because of the control the deck has.

Allure is a no go, because you dont want to remove anything, your not supposed to remove anything.

And You only main veiler if you dont main Tribute, and you only side Veiler, if tribute is coming out. But 1 veiler in the main is ok.

I won't fix but i will give suggestions , GKz is my real life deck .. and i had time to test it many times versus many decks also after i did some modifications last week to it after i found a better combo

-2 Caius : usually you have many cards on your field and you can always summon monsters from your hand and thanks goes to recruiter of course . Still , GKz has an awesome field control thanks to Nectovally and other cards like GKz Spy.

-2 Recruiter: 3 would be overkill , you don't want to make the duel long since GKz can't win long duels since they run out of monsters faster than other decks .. as lest for me since i run 14 monster and your chances to keep drawing monsters in long duels is 50% so its not ensured anyways. Recruiter allows you to have a balanced hands if you used it well .. not mentioning Stele that will give you the chance to keep using Recruiter .. so 2 is better.

-2 Descendant: 3 is very bad for Gkz , they are dead cards unless they were summoned by spy effect or when you ALREADY have a field control with at least 1 GKz monster ... but that just don't happen allot thats why GKz Spy is the key to make Descendant usefull. Also Stele might play a turn here ..

-3 Stele : it might be over kill if you are using 3 Recruiter and 3 Descendant. But If you are only using 2 Recruiter and 2 Descendant they this card is just super amazing. and Might be your key to win many matches as i notices in my duels.

-2 Royal Tribute: nothing to say about it .. awesome card against many decks ..

-2 GKz Assaliant: if you gona run 2 Descendant , then i suggest you rn 2 GKz Assaliant ... this card is cool against many metas.

This would be all till now , but more is comming after you update your list to see what did you decide to add and whats won't be added to the deck.

ugh recuriter cant be an over kill EVER stop hatin him o_o
GK has a basic build of 3 dec and 2 assialnt the other techs like caius , veller, genex are just personal opnions
the point is you shouldnt miss with the basic build D:

This basic built you talking about is not that important , it jut shows the point of the deck .. You can change cards as you like and try new combos .. making decks as everyone else is not a pro thing to do .. its for nubs ._. try new stuff out .. who knows , maybe its better than the "basic" built ..

ehh sure thats why top 32 decklist of every ycs are full of new and uniqe stuff
man i didnt know you are that prah

3 Recruiter = You see it more often, you search more often, you thin your deck, you get descendant pluses going. Also you make them waste resoucres that they wouldnt normally use because simply destroying recruiter helps you, because you can float it, especially with Necrovally up.

Cuting it 2 means you cut down all of your options by a 1/3, and you cut down your chances of seeing it, so you slow yourself down.

Never go solely based on YCS results and/or use them to justify anything without more insight. For example Mera, who topped the past 2 jumps, with Blackwings, is a terrible player, with a second rate build. And that Lil Wayne wannabe who topped with Empty Jar cheated all day. There isnt always a method to their madness, at least it cant be shown with YCS results. Sometimes people just suck or get lucky at these jumps.

every rule has it is breaker( if u are lucky you dont need skills D:) and this the 3rd time you mention the empty jar guy im just curious how did he really cheat :O?

Yea cheated with A/D changer all day, then bragged about how he was soon good -_-. You shouldve seen his tourny report, it was a mess lols.

O I've not been following, Well..Cutting recruiter is not an option, recruiter is never dead, always get me my cards in whatever situation..cutting it to two hurts the deck consistency as RS explained.

2 Assailants are totally not needed, Assailant's main use is to tame a beater (Incase Necro was faceup), and a copy can be easily fetched with three copies of Recruiter and Spy (Stele Somehow)
After testing, found that 2 MSTs aren't that needed so yeah i decided to side the second and main Fiendish Chain/Forbidden Chalice in its place.

Caiuses are good but its a win more card, I mean things he does can be done with cards in the list already.
