____________EDIT LOG____________

10/13/05
-Hoshiningen
+Otohime

Reason: Hoshiningen's are fine at 2 and Otohime can do some real good in my deck. They can instantly take out Spirit Repears, and basically ANY monster, combined with Cyber Dragon or Ninja Grandmaster Sasuke. She's deadly.

10/14/05
-Royal Decree
+Dust Tornado

Reason: There's a point when you realize that spell and trap destruction is usually more powerful than negation. This is a justified response.

10/15/05
-Reflect Bounder
+Smashing Ground
-Confiscation
+Cyber Dragon

Reason: This was a big day, there was this guy that wanted to trade me his Enemy Controller for a Cyber Dragon, he decided to wait until he gets another, which will probably be by Wednesday, when I was in the tournament today I placed 5th place, which isn't bad but everytime I drew Confiscation I didn't want to use it and didn't seem to see much use for it.

The thing about Reflect Bounder is that it's sort of like Magic Cylinder, it's nice stall and takes down your opponents life points. But I'd much rather have field control rather than lifepoint advantage, my other monsters take lifepoints down plenty fast anyhow. And also 2 Smashing Grounds is nice, I prefer them over the Reflect Bounder.

10/16/05
-Soul of Purity and Light
+Creature Swap

Reason: The reason for this would probably be that Soul of Purity and Light was in for a long time mainly for quick power. But Cyber Dragon's are my quick power mostly now. If I miss her I'll probably add her in but Creature Swap is good when running Shining Angels.

10/17/05
Side deck is complete.

10/19/05
Took out Thunder Dragons for Electric Snakes (SideDeck)

Reason: Thunder Dragons were in for hand destruction, I have no problem thinning my deck and Electric Snakes own hand destruction.

10/22/05
-Thunder Nyan Nyan
+Enemy Controller

Reason: Thunder Nyan Nyan is powerful sometimes but when it comes straight to it, she's one of the less useful monsters in my deck, so I thought it's fair enough that she'd be taken out for Enemy Controller.

-Thunder Nyan Nyan
+Shining Angel

Reason: Thunder Nyan Nyan is once again, not one of the strongest cards in my deck, but Shining Angel is. Shining Angel can really swarm the field and thin my deck more efficiently with three in.

-Mirage Dragon
+Airknight Parshath

Reason: Mirage Dragon is an amazing card in my deck, he is first in line to go back in, believe it or not, he wins duels. But I thought it would be best if I found a way to get some draw power and his name came up at the tournament.

Today was a big day, lots of edits.

10/23/05

Sidedeck:
-Ninja Grandmaster Sasuke
+Drillroid
-Royal Decree
+Drillroid
-Electric Snake
+Legendary Jujitsu Master
-Banisher of the Light
+Legendary Jujitsu Master

Reason: I was at the tournament on Saturday and had a few problems using an all light side deck. So I put in some great cards for it. Drillroid does Ninja Grandmaster Sasuke's job plus more and Legendary Jujitsu Master really bothers people sometimes.
 
A light deck!! Haven't seen one of those in a while.Taking out Sakuretsu Armor for a Enemy Controller sounds like a good idea with Royal Decree in the deck.

I'd personally, take out one Hoshiningen for another Shinning Angel, as it would help think your deck, and you've got plenty of stuff to search for with it.

Also, you could add one Terraforming, (searchs for any field magic card in your deck), if you feel like you aren't getting Luminous Spark as often as you would like. You could throw in Freed the Brave Wander (or sidedeck him), as you would have more than enough light monster for his ability (works great against Pheonix)Overall, a great deck!

Actually, I took Freed the Brave Wanderer out today, he's sitting right next to me and I can easily throw him back in. But just for Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys is too selective for me, Freed the Brave Wanderer is usually too high in attack to take out most stronger monsters with his effect.

And I just needed anothr opinion for taking out Sakuretsu Armor for an Enemy Controller, I will be doing that now, I won't update that until I get the actual card though.
 
I've been wanting to make a pure light deck myself as of late. Thanks for a quick overview. I can see where Last Will might work nicely in this deck since there are 10 monsters in your deck that could be special summoned with it.

I'd like to see a side deck posted for this. With only two cards that are capable of S/T removal you're going to have a difficult time eventually. Giant Trunades could work nicely as they won't distroy your Luminous Spark. Certainly you should have at least two Dust Tornados waiting to side deck in should you need them.
 
One thing I forgot to mention. You've got the potential for some pretty nasty beatdown here, if I were you I'd find a way (at least in the side deck) to incorperate some piercing battle damage (trample) It's likely you'll be running into plenty of face down defesne situations from your opponent.
 
I see a lot of flooding comments, I'm thinking of Last Wills, not so sure yet. And my spell and trap removal is just fine, I can't run too many traps because of Royal Decree though, Royal Decree will also save me from 60% of the things my opponents lay down. And usually it doesn't take long for me to finish a duel so FINAL or anything like that. And also, hand destruction is coming back with a furious roar, Dark Coffins have been a problem with me (my brother runs a hand destruction deck). I can see where spell and trap destruction could help me out, I might side deck and extra Giant Trunade.

And yes, a lot of this deck is beat down. A lot of times I'll have a lot of monsters on the field, and they all get VERY strong, fast. I can finish duels in 3 turns if my opponent is careless. My average attack strength on the field would be about 2400-2600, which is deadly. :) If I miss my second Blade Knight, I'll take out something to add him in again.
 
Both really good ideas. I knew about Thunder Dragon and I would do it to thin my deck or make my hand bigger. And the Heart of Clear Water would really help some stuff out. Since I don't have any Spirit Reapers, I had a discussion with my friend last night about the problems in my deck. One of them is defense. This can really help defense. Since I don't think the card "Marshmelon" is coming out anytime soon. Which is basically a Light Spirit Reaper. And also I'd have a Spirit Reaper light if I equipped Heart of Clear Water to White Magical Hat. The Different Dimension Dragon thing it pretty cool. He'd literally NEVER die. Haha. I'm going to try to fit a Heart of Clear Water in.

Please people. MORE COMMENTS, this deck needs some help.
 
Exactly. The D.D. dragon / heart combo will be in a review I'll do next week :Alternative Reviews: Stalling I

I'm glad you like my idea. Now, what about Power Bond? I don't mean make this a Cyber Dragon FTK deck. I just mean put one, and only one Power Bond, on the off chance you draw two together (and it WILL happen) and you could bring out one seriously pumped Cyber Twin Dragon.

pssvr, you're a twisted person suggesting Different Dimension Dragon and Heart of Clear Water <rubbing my hands together Greedily> Oh I DO like it!

I really would like to see the side deck for this. I think there are a lot of options that could be exploited. I still believe Light of Intervetion could be a very helpful card in this deck (or at least side deck) It would work wonders with Ninja Grandmaster Sasuke

The only cards you have that it would conflict with Light of Intervention would be MOF and Book of Moon. The BOM can be sided out for Light of Intervention and the MOF for another Shining Angel or Ninja Grandmaster Sasuke.

I could see changing a Dust Tornado for a Giant Trunade or at least run the a Giant Trunade in your side deck.

Good, good suggestions. I'll be working on a side deck today. I got my progress report so it may stall me a while.

Aww... shucks, you really think so? And just so you know, you have proven that good beats evil: Ninja gradmaster sasuke + Light of Intervention + Otohime = total light domination. Wow.

You're down to one copy of Luminous Spark? So why use the entire light theme at all? What advantage are you gaining by doing so?

Personally I'd take out a Cyber Dragon and put at least one copy of Soul of Purity and Light in.
Look at it this way...

Cyber Dragon 2100atk

Soul of Purity and Light 2000 (-300 on your opp. atk = 2300 atk)

They both have their unique special summoning requirements. Better to have one of each than be locked into one mode. It's likely with the Shining Angels you'll be keeping field precence. Your chances to use the special summoning capabilities of Cyber Dragon often may be limited.

Right now I'm having some trouble adding or subtracting any card. I'm trying to put in the 2nd Luminous Spark back in but there's simply no room yet. And I thought of it like this: If I draw Cyber Dragon, I usually don't need him. Soul of Purity and Light -is- a great card and I wish I could have kept her in. But like I said I'm having trouble keeping things in and taking things out. My deck is constantly being changed and one of my Cyber Dragon's is advertised as "tradeable" so if he goes. Soul of Purity and Light may come in. And the point to the light theme still remains. Thunder Nyan Nyan's are supported by light cards. 1 Luminous Spark and 2 Hoshiningen's. Those cards are on the field very often. And the point of me not going non-light? Mostly for originality and also, most decks are set up to duel dark decks, or something of that sort. There's not much to side deck against me.


And taking out White Magical Hat for the last Shining Angel did occur to me, but with the abscence of Pot of Greed and Graceful Charity, hand destruction thrives. I get him with Shining Angel, they lose a card. You may think "1 card? 1000 attacker?" But most of the time he is backed up with Luminous and/or Hoshiningen, putting him up to 2000 attack. The card pulls it's weight, is what I'm getting at. The reason I have so much trouble adding and subtracting cards in and out is because I'm at the point in which my whole deck supports itself.
