My Control Deck V 2.0 (for the 10/1 Ban List)

This is the second version am posting of my Contol Deck, which evolved out of my Last Turn Deck with the idea of being able to stall and wait for the combo rather than being a OTK. I am currently reconsidering putting back Last Turn.

Monsters (18)
2 Horus the Blackflame Dragon LV 6
3 Jowgen the Spiritualist
3 Stealth Bird
2 Swarm of Locusts
1 Dark Catapulter
3 Swarm of Scarabs
1 Exiled Force
1 Cyber Jar
1 Morphing Jar
1 Sagan

Traps (15)
3 Wall of Revealing Light
2 Anti Spell Fragrance
3 Solemn Judgment
1 Torrential Tribute
2 Magic Jammer
2 Fake Trap
2 Divine Wrath

Spells (5)
1 Dark Hole
2 LLAB
2 Offerings to the Doomed
2 Messenger of Peace

Side Deck
2 Dust Tornado
1 MST
1 Breaker the Magical Warrior
2 Bottomless Trap Hole
2 Seven Tools of the Bandit
2 Mask of Darkness
1 Mobius the Forst Monarch
4 Undecided

The Basic idea with behind the deck is to control monsters via Swarm of Scarabs and Medusa Worm, and to control Magic and Traps via Anti-Spell Fragrance + Swarm of Locusts. Jowgen is still there, since he stops Special Summons (which a lot of decks use), can destory them, and has a decent DEF of 1300 (espically when out with Messenger of Peace or Gravity Bind).

Wall of Revealing light is still there, because it has value as a great Trap Stall (pay 3000, or 4000 life, and you opponet will never be able to attack you as long as this card remains active on the field plus it gets everything that MOP and Gravity Bind miss).

I am considering whether or not it would be a good idea to put two Last Turn back in this deck, so that it has an alternative winning condition (would be useful against things like skill drain). I've also been wondering if the Fake Traps are worth keeping (and if not, what to replace them with). They are great with Wall of Revealing light around, but do nothing to protect my other stall cards.

Horus Lv 6 is currently in the Deck since it can attack though all my stalls (combos great with LLAB), and is a great defense against things such as Creature Swap. I'm not sure whether adding 1 Horus LV 8 would be a good idea or not. Its abilty to stop all of my opponets spells is great, but I woudl probably never get to attack with it, and I would have to work its Special summon around Jowgen (that is why I currently only have one card that special summons anything in the entire deck).

Any more suggestions on good side deck cards for this deck would be greatly appreacated, as well as any other thoughts, comments, etc. Thank you in advance for you time.
 
I thought that the auto linking was there. How do I enabale it? As far as the current suggestions, I much prefer Cyber and Morphing Jar to Don Zaloog or Spirit Reaper. Cyber Jar can destory all of my opponets monsters and can also save me from decking out. While the two jars do give both me and my opponet more cards, they do help me speed though my deck (which is vital if I need a stall card), and I feel that this kind of deck will allow me to use them to my advantage.

If my opponet gets more monsters than my with Cyber Jar, I can always use Jowgen to destory them all (plus Cyber Jar can break a Horus Lv 8 Royal Decree lock), and if I get morping jar off early, I almost always gain one or two resource advantage over my opponet, since I can play most of my right away. If Anti-Spell Fragance is activate, it will hinder my opponet's use of any spells that he/she draws. Finally, since there are only a couple of cards that people maindeck that destory stalls (MST, Heavy Storm, Breaker, and Royal Decree). I'd rather have more counter traps and my opponet with a large hand that no conter traps, and my opponet with a smaller hand.

Don Zaloog only works if he can attack (which doesn't happen much with my deck), and he is useless if I use Level Limit Area B (and I would prefer not to have my monster affected by my stall cards.
 
And he can't ever deal damage if he doesn't attack. I don't like the idea of having to play my stalls around my monsters. I would rather have all of my monster work with all my stalls (expect a Horus LV 8 if I can get one, since its effect is so gamebreaking). I don't attack with this deck until it gets going (and is begining to lock my opponet down), which means that most of the time, I would get to use Don Zaloog's effect until I've already got the advantage.
