PSO Episode 3 - Crimson Assassin Deck Part 1

This is my most famous deck from Sega's online days - my fearsome Crimson Assassin deck. Everyone that played me knew that if you were to beat me, you had to go through my Crimson Assassin first. At first glants the Crimson Assassin does not look particularly impressive. It has good HP but its stats look very low for a 6 cost card. It has several abilities, but it's most noteable ability is Pierce. Pierce allows you to hit a story character directly no matter what is on the field. It's especially useful against Hunter side characters, but works great against Arkz characters using Guard Creatures as well. While several cards have the Pierce ability, what makes the Crimson Assassin special is that it can use Action Cards. Other cards with Pierce have the AC Unable ability, preventing them from using Action Cards.

In my online days, many people saw the Crimson's paltry 3 AP and deemed it no more threatoning than a Booma, often to the point of ignoring it entirely. More than one time I stunned opposing players by unleashing HP Attack; delivering a huge blow that sometimes 1-hit killed them. Even if HP Attack doesn't work, it can still deliver quite a fight using other action cards. My opponents quickly learned to respect this creatures power and I've had countless great matches with it.

One player I always liked to battle was RAGNAGELPPOD. The Crimson Assassin Vs. Indi Belra battles were always a lot of fun.

Another card that is extremely underrated is Toy Rappies. They're actually VERY good, if you use them correctly. With not having to pay for movement because of Haste, you always have enough attack dice to get a good amount of damage in with attack cards. I used to be really good online with my Toy Rappy deck, and most people laughed at me when I used them in a match.
