I don't really see the point of your deck. When I see the monsters I see a Magician deck. But the traps are just dreadful. You really don't have much use for any of them, try traps that protect you until you get your tributes out like Magic Cylinder, Sakuretsu Armor, Waboku, try maybe some counter traps, maybe a Solemn Judgement. Give up the Poison of the Old Mans, the Nobleman of Extermination, Malevolent Nuzzler, Meteor of Destruction, put in the staples. I'm going to bed right now, tomorrow I'll post how I would make the deck. :p
 
I don't know if you have the cards to build this deck, but:

Dark Sage X2
Dark Magician X3

Skilled Dark Magician X3
Apprentice Magician X2
Magician of Faith
Old Vindictive Magician
Time Wizard X2
Royal Magical Library X2
Tsukuyomi
Sangan
Toon Cannon Soldier

Last Will X2
Card Destruction
Toon Table of Contents X3
Gather Your Mind X3
Lighten the Load X2
MST
HS
GT
BT
Swords
Scapegoat

Second Coin Toss X2
Waboku X3
Anti-Spell

If you think this is crappy, it's cause I made it up as I typed it :D

Let's see if I can answer this: Yes I already have Magic Cylinder in there, Sakuretsu Armor always seem to get nailed with Dust Tornado or Mystical Space Typhoon before I get to use it. Waboku is good but I just didn't feel like maindecking this. Poison of the Old Man has it's purpose and that hemrhoid factor. The same goes with Goblin Thief and Meteor of Destruction. Nobleman of Extermination has worked well for me especially since it destroys traps like Nobleman of Crossout does to flip effect cards. Staples are great cards but there are times that other different combination of cards work to your decks advantage. I'll go back and edit the deck with explanations of each spell/trap card.
 
I agree SIRCH.. Staples are great and all, but not with spellcasters... Spellcaster deck CAN work with staples, but its a totally different type of deck build. Its amusing to me to see how many people think you have to use the staple in EVERY build... thats why there are NO real staples... cuz in this deck build, they actually CAN hinder you..... then other cards that you may think are useless like Xing Zhen Hu, or Judgment of Anubis.... come in really handy and have great synthesis with it.... Spellcasters are so diverse, you can cuxtomize the deck to pretty much any kind of playing style, you can stall, you can OTK, you can aggro... Its not like warriors, or zombies and such where there is a typical build... its much more diverse.... maybe thats why YUGI is the King of Games... cuz he has mastered the Spellcaster deck.......

actually if used correctly, it works very well and I enjoy using it. It causes a Pucker factor on your oponent.

It's not that I don't like you suggestions, I just don't have some of the cards and others I don't use due to personal preference.

A lot of the other staples I have but this deck is limited due to what I have on hand. Thank you for the suggestions though.
 
LOL, I was kidding. I was just throwing something out there for you to think about. I've always wanted to make a Dark Sage deck, but I've never had the cards, so I was hoping you did.

-pssvr
 
what really sucks is that my stepson had a Dark Sage and decided to trade it for something like a common Change of Heart or something. I love the kid but man, he really need to learn on how to trade. Drives me crazybut what can I do? Thanks for those suggestions though.
 
How old is he? Cause most of my friends kinda trade like that. What you have to do is trade with HIM. Forgetting being his stepfather, he's just another duelist you can take advantage of. At least, that's what I did with my friends. I once traded a starter deck red-eyes for a first edition, first print Invader of Darkness. I have also traded the unplayable Blue-eye shining dragon for Negate Attack, Spellbinding Circle (the ultra rare), and Armed Dragon LV 5

my stepson corrected me, it was Dark Paladin that he traded for. I think I might look for a Dark Sage though, the idea intrugues me. I will probably add Peten in too along with Apprentiss, not really sure yet. Thanks for the devious ideas though. I guess I am wonder how old you are?
 
Found a Dark Sage last night. The funny part was, it came walking up and knocking on my door. The boy my stepson traded it to came by to trade cards, so after much haggling, I finally got it back. So I am going back and revising the deck.
