Alright. I have a light sworn deck to use at regionals. Tell how to make all around better. Also I want a powerful side deck to counter everything possible.
Deck list:
Monsters
2x Judgment Dragon
3x Honest
1x Guardian of Order
1x Card Trooper
3x Necro Gardna
3x Celestia
2x Lyla
3x Lumina
3x Wulf
1x Ehren
2x Ryko
1x Jain
1x Garoth
Spells:
3x Solar Recharge
3x Charge of the Light Brigade
1x Heavy Storm
2x Monster Reincarnation
1x Lightsworn Saber
1x Monster Reborn
Traps:
1x Mirror Force
2x Solemn Judgment
1x Royal Decree
Ok, there’s a few things that I can see that should be changed already;
Monsters-
-1 Card Trooper
-1 Guardian of Order
-1 Celestia
Trooper isn’t really needed as enough milling takes place already, Guardian isn’t so necessary because if you can clear the field with JD and swarm with Lumina/Wulf etc. enough damage should be able to be done. And two Celestias is enough, having three is a bit overcrowded.
+1 Lyla
+1 Ryko
Obviously just for the effects. Also the more individual Lightsworns you have the better chance you have of filling your grave with JD’s requirements.
Spells-
-Lightsworn Sabre
It might sound like a good card, but seriously, ATK points mean nothing if you can maintain good hand and field advantage.
+2 Foolish Burial
+2 My Body as a Shield
The Foolishes are awesome for dumping Wulfs for a free summon, or the Necros, before you end up drawing either of them. As for My Body as a Shield, Solemning a Mirror or Torrential from 8000 to 4000 is a big drop, so this is just as powerful. And the fact that it’s a quickplay is even better. The look on your opponent’s face when you unexpectedly counter thier comeback with a simple play from your hand.
Traps-
-1 Mirror Force
-1 Royal Decree
Traps are something that really aren’t needed much in Lightsworn, all they’re going to do is be dumped in the grave if you’re unlucky enough not to draw them. So you need cards that are faster and that will make sure your strategy goes according to plan, cards such as. . .
+1 Solemn Judgment
also
+1 Crush Card Virus (if you have it)
If you’re going to play Solemns you need three. They’re just too good. And Crush Card will actually put a dead draw Necro Gardna to some use.
So after all of that the main deck should look a bit like this:
Lightsworn List: 42 Cards
Monsters: 25
3x Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner
3x Lyla, Lightsworn Sorceress
3x Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter
3x Wulf, Lightsworn Beast
2x Celestia, Lightsworn Angel
1x Ehren, Lightsworn Monk
1x Garoth, Lightsworn Warrior
1x Jain, Lightsworn Paladin
3x Necro Gardna
3x Honest
2x Judgment Dragon
Spells: 14
3x Solar Recharge
3x Charge of the Light Brigade
2x Foolish Burial
2x My Body as a Shield
2x Monster Reincarnation
1x Heavy Storm
1x Monster Reborn
Traps: 3 (4)
3x Solemn Judgment
(1x Crush Card Virus)
As for the Sidedeck, you’ll need Something that will be good at combatting the current metagame. Try something like this:
1x Garoth, Lightsworn Warrior
1x Mystical Space Typhoon
2x Twister
2x D. D. Crow
2x Prohibition
2x Non-Fusion Area
2x Cold Wave
3x Shadow Imprisoning Mirror
Crows because they’re awesome, Cold Waves for quick and obstacle-free wins, Imprisonings for Dark (mainly DaD), Twisters and Mystical for quick and easy destruction of any pesky strategy corrupting cards (Prohibition, Macro etc.), and Glads are powerless without their fusions, so Non-Fusion Area should keep that under control.
Ok, so after all that I hope I helped somhow. So… yeah, best of luck! ^_^
