Just made this deck. Want to make it better. I know some of the things I need; another JD, Celestia, Necro Gardna, and a side deck. Problem is, I'm on a budget. Would appreciate some help on fixes, advice, and what cards I should look for. :3

If your working on a budget

Max the common sworns which are good

i.e Jain, Garoth

-1 Rinyan
+1 Jain
-1 Shire
+1 garoth

[InfernoASK]

I just happen to have another Jain and Garoth.
Thanks.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

also, a Necro Gardna wouldn't go astray here.


-1 Gragonith (tributes other than Celestia are a little slow)
+1 Necro Gardna

in way of traps go for 3 Decree, Decree is god like this format, so just run 1-2 Beckoning and max Decree

your Spell lineup looks pretty good, don't change as far as i'm concerned

Monsters need work:
Monsters: 21
1 Aurkus, Lightsworn Druid (ok)
1 Card Trooper (good)
1 Celestia, Lightsworn Angel (try to find 2 more, trade if u have to)
2 Garoth, Lightsworn Warrior (good, although i only play 1)
1 Gragonith, Lightsworn Dragon (no)
2 Honest (good)
3 Jain, Lightsworn Paladin (run 2)
1 Judgment Dragon (get 1 more, should be easy, gold is worth $10 and people will trade easy for it)
1 Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner (good)
1 Lyla, Lightsworn Sorceress (find 1 more)
1 Plaguespreader Zombie (good)
2 Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter (good)
1 Spirit Reaper (make Gorz instead)
3 Wulf, Lightsworn Beast (good)

and it might be tough but if u can get ur hands on Ehren that has to be in there as well, your build isn't too bad, just try to trade for the stuff u need and u should be in good shape

[InfernoASK]

Thank for the advice Excalibur.
1 thing: How well does Gorz work with max Decree?

[EHN.]

I would run Ehren over Aurkus, but that's just preference. I would also replace gragonith with another celestia, and if you get another Judgment Dragon, take out 1 jain. Also try 2 Lyla, maybe one less garoth.

[~Excalibur~]

Decree tests fantastic, and Gorz is just backup for if ur mills suck, and sometimes they will

[InfernoASK]

Decree seems more like something I'd wanna side. But Idk. I'll test when I get all these cards.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

With your current build and the lack of alot of key monsters, your best off running a Normal Trap Line Up
until you get more Celestia, Lyla, Ryko, JD.

Gorz and Decree don't work.

You will always draw at least 1 Decree making Gorz a dead card.

lightsworn is a milling deck Sephiroth and u know that as well as i do, you might end up milling ur decree's before u get anywhere near Gorz, and it's not like ur opponent won't have ways of ridding the feild of it, and if u get Gorz opening hand u won't have to worry about dead drawing him

plus if ur feild is good u can always just discard for Lumina's effect or if u have out Brionac u can get rid of it that way, the only dead draw in the deck would be Wulf, himself being very situational

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

if your not running JD at 2, Celestia at 3 and Lyla your milling engine is alot slower......

therefore, milling decree won't happen, specially if you run 3.

[~Excalibur~]

everyone has different milling luck :/

if ur not going to do Gorz in the main deck then at least side him, better u have something to fall back on in a dangerous situation then no way out
