• ------Hey, Mantisque here. I see you're building an Arcana Force Deck. (btw, next time use the Decklist Template --> http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Decklist) Your build...needs some work. I'm not sure how much YGO cards cost in the United Kingdom, but I know for a fact that you'll be spending alot more than £20 if you want an Arcana Force Deck that can hold on during duels. Sorry to say...

Ok, we'll start with the Monsters:

• Arcana Force 0 - The Fool - Take both out. They're not so special. Useless effect: why would anyone waste a trap or spell on a lv1, 0 atk monster? The only thing they'd be good for would be for tribute fodder. But that can be changed to Kaiser Sea Horse. Lv 4, 1700 ATK, double as tribute for light monsters. Run 1 (you can run 2 if you want) of him in the deck instead of the Fools.
• Arcana Force I - The Magician - Just run 1 of him. Sure he doubles his ATK when a spell card is activated. Problem is, you won't always have a spell to activate, and the same goes for your opponent.
• Arcana Force III - The Empress - Run 3 of her. She is one of the most vital cards in your deck. If you flip heads when she's summoned, you can easily swarm the field with powerful Arcana beat sticks like: Arcana Force XVIII - The Moon, Arcana Force XXI - The World, Arcana Force XIV - Temperance, Arcana Force IV - The Emperor, etc
• Arcana Force IV - The Emperor - yeah, 2 would be fine
• Arcana Force VI - The Lovers - Same deal as the Fools. You don't need them as long as you have Kaiser Sea Horse.
• Arcana Force VII - The Chariot - Run 2 of this guy. 3 would just be too much, cause if you were to get tails for both, you just helped out your opponent.
• Arcana Force XIV - Temperance - Run 2 of this guy. Temperance is basically the Semi-Pseudo Kuriboh. Plus, when summoned (that includes Special Summoned - like by the a fore mentioned Empress) if you flip heads, Halve all damage you receive in battle.
• Arcana Force XVIII - The Moon - Run 2. A beastly swarmer when combo'd with the Empress. Plus, excellent with tributes and the *Arcana Force XXI - The World lock.
• Arcana Force XXI - The World - Just run 1. Major beat stick. As well as a combo piece with The Moon.
• Arcana Force EX - The Dark Ruler - Just run 1. Hard enough already to bring him out. Plus, awesome effects either flip. Just wouldn't be an Arcana Force deck with out him.
• Arcana Force Ex - the Light Ruler - same thing as The Dark Ruler. Just run 1.

That's that for the Arcana Monsters. Now on to the other Monsters. DUCKER Mobile Cannon and Earthbound Immortal Wiraqocha Rasca are utterly useless. Sangan is a pretty good call on the other hand. Don't have to use these monsters, but I highly suggest them for any Fairy Deck.

• Honest - Run 1 or 2 of this guy. Awesome for beat sticking.
• Hecatrice - just run 1. Unless you're having a difficult time keeping monsters on the field, then run 2.
• Shining Angel - run 2. Basically the searchers of the deck. And since most of your Arcana monsters and other Light monsters have 1500 or less ATKs, you have so many options.
• Athena - Not a major 'must have' card, but still pretty darn good. 2600 ATK. Not to mention 600 effect damage whenever a Fairy Type Monster is summoned. Goes especially well with Empress and The Moon. Plus, she's a pseudo-Creator, send 1 fairy monster to the graveyard and special summon a different one. And no summoning restrictions too.
• Splendid Venus - run just 1. 2800 ATK, lowers opponent's monsters' ATKs by 500, and protects your Spells and Traps during activation. No Summoning restrictions, so it can be special summoned by Valhalla.

There are alot of notable Fairy/Light monsters, and spot-lighting them all here would take forever. So you'll just have to research for them. But the ones I mentioned above would make you pretty much good to go.

And now for the Spells:

• Light Barrier - good call for running 3. It's effect has no downside to it, so if you get a tails, nothing bad happens.
• Second Coin Toss - I suggest you run 2. It's effect does not only apply to monsters, but also to Spells and Traps that use a coin flip.
• Cup of Ace - Probably Side Deck this. You can switch this in and out whenever is necessary.
• [[Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen] - Yeah, just run 1. Pretty self-explanatory
• Heavy Storm and Mystical Space Typhoon are pretty much Deck Staples.
• Lightwave Tuning – Very useful for Synchros. You can Side deck this. Run 3 if not Side decking
• Cestus of Dagla – For a bit more beat sticking. You can side deck this. Run 1 or 2 if not side decking
• Solidarity - This is a good card if you want to run down your opponent. However, I don't advise to use this card if you're running a Sangan in your deck.

Not alot of Spells, but keep in mind, the deck revolves more around the Effects of the Arcana Monsters. Anywho, now for the Traps:

• Arcana Call - Run 2. Pretty good in tight spots when a Heads is needed.
• Lucky Chance - Run 1. But if you want to Deck Out faster, then 2 would be fine.
• Reversal of Fate - 2 is fine
• Torrential Tribute, Mirror Force, Solemn Judgment, Dark Bribe - all Staples for the Deck
• Karma Cut and Chaos Burst - You don't really need these. They don't do much to the purpose of the deck
• Ray of Hope - You can side deck this. If not Side decking, then run 2
• Tour of Doom - Once again, a side deck card. If not side decking, run 1
• Fairy Box - You can Side deck this as well. Run just 1

Like I said, There alot of cards out there that can make this deck better. I'm just not going to give you all of them. You're going to have to do a bit of research yourself. And also, the cards I mentioned above, you don't have to use them in your deck. They are just mere suggestions. Good Luck! Mantisque 03:25, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

• the fool cannot be destroyed in battle! this can be vital if you havent got light barrier or second coin toss on the field as it gives you time to draw them, run 3! i dont think Mantisque realised this other effect.
• honest: 2 is definately nessessary, may be slightly expensive though
• second coin toss: run 3 obviously, you deck centres around luck!! Richierapture 11:54, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
