Aggressive Behavior...

You said you're trying to reduce the number of traps in the sideboard? I wouldn't. People who think sidedecks should be low on traps seem to be forgetting that the traps are better at countering the opponent's cards than any others. Personally, I feel that no deck should contain more than 6 traps unless it is trap based, but no side deck should contain less than ten.

It has a lot to do with the kind of deck you're running and what they are. Also seven traps are fine if you use them correctly. The problem I find people giving me is that if you have more of a certain card type like Monsters (roughly around 19+) or Traps (6+) that the deck some how magically doesn't work. Wrong, that thinking is just wrong. I've made too many successful decks that run above 40 cards and use strange card ratios. So far my favorite is 17:18:7 and that won't change for quite some time (unless I get better at deck building).

There isn't anything wrong with the way I have the deck, it's already won a tournament. The people in my area aren't exactly bad, but they aren't the best either. Had some rough times with a couple of them. Some of the reasons I won were because I used the Confiscation and sided in Magic Drain (was doing side board testing) and it combo'd VERY nicely. Another good aspect was how Magic Drain and Legendary Jujitsu Master were being a very annoying pair. I might even combined with Time Seal. That's just tooooo sick. xD

I've got the ideas, just don't know if I really want to change some of the deck to include those strategies. =) Might do some more Side Board changing.
 
Alright, whatever you want. Actually, though, I'm not criticizing having more than 6 traps, just that your deck isn't trap based. I once made an effective 48 card deck, with 22 traps, 22 monsters, and 4 spells. But it was trap BASED.
