Ok first of all why Disappear? Soul Release pwns Disappear in every way. Next, Ultimate Offering x2 is a good sidedeck card here, since it would allow you to summon kaiser, then drop it for Gilford on the same turn. And you'd be surprised how little M/T removal some people have, so you WILL bring it out of the sidedeck sometimes. Cold Wave is also good sideboard material. When you swarm with your knights, it might be good to freeze the field first.

No, he can't. If you chain Dissapear to Book of Life and remove the monster that would be summoned, you can still RFP the opponent's monster, because the effect will resolve as much as it possibly can. Soul Release pwns it, plain and simple.

The joys of autolinking and knowing the rulings for the cards....
If any of the 5 monsters targeted by "Pot of Avarice" are removed from the Graveyard before its effect resolves, for example by "Disappear" or "Call of the Haunted", then the entire effect of "Pot of Avarice" Disappears. You do not shuffle the other monsters into your Deck and you do not draw 2 cards.
 
Is it my imagination, or do you and I never agree on anything? Oh well, time for semantics...

What about that whole "resolve as much as possible" thing? There are two seperate effects: Return 5 monsters; Draw 2 cards. They are different actions, and shouldn't be dependent on one another to resolve. Ceasefire, anyone?

You would think that would work, wouldn't you..lol, but let's look at the text real quick shall we.
Select 5 Monster Cards from your Graveyard, then add them to your Deck and shuffle it.
Pretty straight forward here. No questions or issues. You either do this, or you don't.
After that, draw 2 cards from your Deck.
Now HERE comes the kicker..lol. After what? After you add all 5 monsters to your deck AND shuffle it, then, and only then, can you draw two cards. See, it's dependant upon the successful 'resolution' of the 1st sentence action. "Ceasefire" doesn't have that little 'clause' that connects the two sentences.

And, yes, we do agree on things more often now than when you 1st started, especially since I started letting you launch me at everbody here..lol.

Now, back to topic!
 
Thank you to everyone,
Well i think it is good the idea to put into the side deck Cold Wave and Ultimate Offering.
I use the Spirit Reaper to block my opponent if i need, and i will add Gilasaurus and Last Will into the side.
For the question of Disappear it is a very good card and i like it because i can chain it on typhoon or Heavy Storm or Dust Tornado, it will negate the Pot of Avarice
(the 14 mark of ruling of Pot of Avarice),
and it can stop effect like Magician of Faith or Mask of Darkness and others cards.
For Ceasefire i will not use it because i have some normal monster, i think to put it into the side deck.
The Kaiser Sea Horse is the best combo with Gilford because it is possible to summon it and activate its effect using the kaiser and one monster.

With your suggestions i made this side:

3x Cold Wave
2x Ultimate Offering
2x Gilasaurus
3x Last Will
1x Ceasefire

What can i add?

Thank you and have a nice day!!!!! ^_^

Well, it is my opinion that almost every sidedeck (note the word "almost") needs 3x Solemn Judgment. And this is no excepetion. What can I say? It stops almost all (note the word "almost" again) FTK and even many OTK decks. It can really screw the opponent over if they're trying to pull something fancy.

THen there's Electric Snake, Despair from the Dark, or dark realm monsters if you face hand control.

Waboku or Jar of Greed in triplicate is good against decks with heavy back row control, since they can be chained and you don't lose much.

Messenger of Peace is excellent tech against decks with very little back row control.
