A New strategy going around is the use of the card reckless greed. Sometimes the six samurai fall alittle sort and reckless greed helps to counter that with its drawing abilites. Playing three copies of this with three copies of six samurai united can let you draw up to 12 cards from your deck. You may not be able to draw for 2 turns, but your opponent probably won't be able to recover because you will have the field locked and have cards in hand as well. I've recently tried six samurai united with three reckless greed and the legacy of yata- garasu to help me draw even more cards from my deck sometimes giving me more than ten cards to swarm the field and fight off all spell and traps cards with cards like solemn judgement. John moore's recent shonen jump win has helpped to show that the six samurai are a force to be reckoned with. Maybe the standard samurai is changing into something even more devestating than before?
