[YGO] Lady Luck is on my side

[revelp8]

So far i've had a great reviews from other people looking at the build of my gemini synchro deck, which runs great btw thanks to the suggestions. Now I want to focus my attention on a completely new deck that i've built since the release of ancient prophecy and finished up in stardust overdrive, FORTUNE LADIES.

Monsters = 17

Fortune Lady Light x 3
Fortune Lady Fire x 2
Fortune Lady Wind x 1
Fortune Lady Water x 3
Fortune Lady Dark x 3
Fortune Lady Earth x 1
Catoblepas and the Witch of Fate x 2
Chaos Sorcerer x 1
Solitaire Magician x 1

[standard fare here, light is the engine of the deck, bringing out whichever i may please, starting off with either dark or water for drawing or ressin from the grave, fire to pop and earth for beating you down. chaos is AMAZING in this deck, bye bye stardust and anything else that wants to stand in my way and compliments the remove from play theme. solitaire and catoblepas for more destruction if i time it correctly, considering replacing them for rai mei for light search]

Spell = 17

Reasoning x 1
Future Visions x 3
Fortune's Future x 2
Time Passage x 2
MST x 1
Heavy Storm x 1
Pot Of Avarice x 1
Nightmare's Steelcage x 1
Sword of revealing light x 1
Giant Trunade x 1
Different Dimension Capsule x 1
Soul Absorption x 1
My Body as a shield x 1

[reasoning should be obvious, FL being all kinds of different levels, Future Visions being the main engine of the deck, rest is standard fare: DDC cheaper stand in for gold sarc (which i can't afford), considering opting out My body as a shield (though its the only card I have that negates) and nightmare for terraforming x 2]

Traps =

Compulsory Evacuation Device (CED) x 3
Slip of Fortune x 1
Return from the different dimension x 1
Inherited Fortune x 1
The transmigration prophecy x 1

[huh, for some raisin i don't have a call of the haunted in there T.T, gonna fix that, switching out RFTDD most likely. LOLBOUNCE is always nice, compliments well with light and anything i don't like to see on my opponent's field. slip of fortune and inherited fortune are for saving my ass.]

Side Deck
Terraforming x 3
Rai Mei x 2
Dark Bribe x 2
Solemn Judgment x 1
Call of the Haunted x 1

Pros: when this deck wants to work it works. i usually swarm the field quickly and i so wish they made a orichalcos card, having more than 5 slots would be awesome and i'd probably fill up all 10 spots as well. They're is so much draw power in this deck it puts lightsworn mill effect to shame, esp with water's effect and fortune's future, not to mention PoA and reasoning.

Cons: how in hell did i miss Call of the haunted. anywho, negation messes me up bad, LOCKDOWN rape this deck, same with GBs and most notably itself, it only works when it wants to work, otherwise im stuck struggling to find visions and light. i don't really know which cards to switch out to put terraforming and rai-mei for search power so any kind of suggestions would be great. thanks for reading!!

Cut most of your junk.

Fortune Lady Earth, Catoblepas, Solitaire, Time Passage, D.D. Capsule, Steelcage, Swords, Trunade, Soul Absorption. Traps selection - cut all of them except for 2 CED. These are horrible.

Add a copy of Wind, at least. Add a copy of Pot, two copies of Gold Sarcophagus, liberal amounts of Terraforming, maybe even Barbaros and Rai-Mei (Barbaros is a beast! Under Future Visions it gets 3000 ATK for a measly normal summon). Defensive Traps like Bottomless, Mirror Force, TT, and defensive and offensive spells like Brain Control and Book of Moon should be welcome as well.

Fortune Ladies aren't a strong archetype imo, though.

way to ruin my thunder with that last statement but whatevs, criticism is criticism.

anywho i did decide to switch it up a bit per your suggestions cause i know it doesn't flow too well with the build i had earlier

I am sacking Solitaire Magician, Catoblepas x2, nightmare steelcage, Earth, soul absorption, inherited fortune, time passage x2, my body as a shield, and slip of fortune

Adding in DDcapsule
terraforming x 2
rai mei x 2
Fortune's Future x 1
BTH x 2
PoA x 1

can't afford one sarc, much less two, even less is mirror force, so can't include those in, not even worth proxying. gonna look into barbaros, at most he's a buck, fortune's future should be at 3, 5 at most. would like more feedback for this though.

 

[Cirrus]

The whole point for Gold Sarc is to combo out with Fortune's Future.

Gold Sarc will be affordable in like 3 months. Duelist Revolution SE.

 

[revelp8]

well then in 3 months time, ill be able to afford it then, for now ill stick with DDcapsules

Terraforming is not that great. Rai Mei isn't that great either. I think, if you really want to run them, only 1 of each. At 2, Terra will be a dead draw most of the time, and Rai Mei really won't help too much.

 

[Cirrus]

This is true. Rai-Mei is usually run at one, and in the new format we all only run really 1 copy of Terraforming, and sometimes none (!!!). A deck has to be actually useful without its Field Spell... though Geartown is an exception.

just for discussion's sake, wouldn't it be the same for this archetype?

though i really appreciated the feedback, the deck completely runs smoother now that i got the excessive cards out.

If you build it right, yes.
