He's only at 1 in this deck because he's not all that needed, but he can turn things around if you excavate a spell (more on that later). He's great for thinning out your deck when you need to, but he can be a bit of a garnet. Sylvan Snapdrassinagon - Snapdrassinagon is basically an extender for milling, as when he's sent to the GY (from deck, hand, or field) you can excavate the top of your deck. (Note: There will be a number beside each monster's description, that is their level) Without further ado, though, let's get started on the deck list: They aim to control their deck, you should think of your main deck as your second hand, as you mostly know the placement of each of the cards on top of your deck, so you can do a controlled mill in order to get where you want to faster and more efficiently. Since each of their monsters has an effect of when they're excavated, their monsters also have effects that allow you to excavate, making getting started on your combos from just a single card that much easier. Sylvans aim to excavate (also mill) their monsters, all of their monsters have an effect when they're excavated (for simplicity, whenever I mention 'excavating' hereon, that'll also mean milling, unless otherwise stated). Firstly, before we start, you should know what kind of deck Sylvans are and what to expect.

When Father Was Away on Business is perhaps the least daring cinematic ally of all of Kusturica's works but it is one of the most heartfelt and gained the director his first international success, paving the way for the full maturation of his vision in the brilliant and disturbing Underground.Sylvans are a fun little deck that you don't see too much of on MD (or at all, still haven't run into a single Sylvan deck), hopefully a decklist fit for Master Duel can encourage someone to play it. Though family relations are strained, especially between Sena, Zijo, and Ankica, the family is very strong and we know that somehow they will endure. In a sub-plot, Malik (who looks and acts more like ten or eleven than six) 'falls in love' with a girl about his age who is suffering from a serious blood disorder and their inevitable separation is quite touching. The family does reunite when Mesa is sent to a remote settlement for further re-socialization but he does not change his ways and visits prostitutes with the party official in charge of his rehabilitation, using Malik as his escort. Mesa is sent to work in the mines while Sena becomes a seamstress to make ends meet and his sensitive son starts sleepwalking, perhaps a wry metaphor for the status of the people under Marshal Tito. A casual remark filled with sarcasm about a political cartoon made to his wife Sena's (Mirjana Karanovic) sister-in-law Ankica (Mira Furlan), leads to his arrest and detention by Zijo (Mustafa Nadarevic), a Communist Party official who also happens to be his wife's brother. His father Mesa (Miki Manojlovic) is a low-level bureaucrat who spends more time womanizing and drinking than attending to his job. The story is told from the perspective of six-year-old Malik (Moreno D'E Bartolli) and his performance is natural and convincing. Set in Yugoslavia in 1950 after the break between Stalin and Tito, it was a time of confusion when people worshiped Stalin one week and despised him the next.

The title of the film refers to the lie told to a six-year-old to cover up the fact that his father was serving time in a labor camp for making a thoughtless remark that offended the Communist apparatchiks.

Winner of the award for Best Film at the 1985 Cannes Film Festival and Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Film, Emir Kusturica's When Father Was Away on Business is a blend of comedy, family drama, and political realism that is courageous, funny, and deeply moving.
