I'm no expert and I know full well that I'm not, but my opinion should still count :)

Seeing as I don't actually know you, I could assume from the selection of cards that your using there, that you are perhaps new to Yu-Gi-Oh! Bear in mind that that is only an assummtion.

Ok, your deck is fine but I think that it is too powerful. You don't want anything too powerful ever cos then it can get to your head and then it can make you arrogant (and eventually lose your friends). Trust on this 'cos I've seen it happen. Unless you plan on entering tournaments then fine use this deck, unless you want to go for some ORIGINALITY.

In short, use cards that you want to use!!! You don't NEED a Mirror Force. Get one but keep it as a collectors item. Personally I wouldn't use Caius the Shadow Monarch, but if you do aim to use one, don't use 2 of them, 'cos you DON'T need 2. Jinzo, I think is a great idea, but that's 'cos i use one and he's one of my favourite monsters. I suggest getting an Amplifier, but this also weakens him as well so bear in mind.

Goldd, Wu-Lord of Dark World, is a nice investment, but to use three is a little much. Take him down to 1 or at the very least 2. I like the use of the Tuners. However if you want to use Pshycic Commander try steering toward a more Pyschic-type deck. I don't know whether you want Krebons for his effect or for the fact that he's a Tuner. Try to incorporate his effect a little more but if you to do this, then try adding life point increase cards so that you can gain back what you lost to use his effect.

Ok, onto your spells. Always use a Monster Reborn, unless facing somebody with a removal deck, then get rid of it. Heavy Storm can be good as long as you know what you are aiming with it. Don't use Giant Trunade and Heavy Storm at the same time, cos it might seem a little overwhelming. However you can use both if you can think of combinations with them. Mystical Space Typhoon is also a must. I didn't have one for quite some years; I had to make do with De-Spell and Remove trap in the mean time. Swords is a useful staple and can be used in combination with Giant Trunade to reactivate it. Brain Control can be nice if you use it at the right time!!!! Lightening Vortex, I suggest you get rid of it full stop. It's just a nasty card. Fires of Doomsday is something that my friend uses and is a great way of keeping up your defence so keep that. Emergency Teleport you should use if you aim to use more than one level 3 or lower Psychic-type monster. Other wise boot it. Card Destruction i would still use if somebody hadn't stolen it so keep it, I only have 1 Dark World Lightening, which in my opinion is a cool card, but try to keep it down.

Finally your traps. You don't need Torrential Tribute or even Royal Decree, especially if you are using Jinzo. Zoma the Spirit you can keep 'cos he doubles up as a monster so that's a cool card.

 

My Additions

 

If you want to use Dark Valkyria, try using a Double Summon spell card. This allows you to Normal Summon once extra per turn which means you can Gemini Summon her in one turn.

I can't really see what kind of spells i should tell you to use, so use what you find FUN and cool to use. Try to steer away from stupidly destructive spells.

Traps. Erm... aim for things like Negate Attack or something similar. If you destroy the monsters with Mirror Force, 'cos at the end of the day you havent really achieved anything. Taking the monsters down in a combination, makes you look better and makes you FEEL better about yourself and your deck. For Example, I took down an Evil Hero Lightening Golem (2400/1500) with a Heavy Mech Support Platform (500/500).

Overall aim to use cards which work well in a huge combination, or use one archetype of cards if you feel you must.

Well I hope I've helped, and if you've got any more questions email [email protected]
