All right, for starters. Kick out pretty much every single non-Level 4 monster except for Stardust/Assault Mode. It's a lot easier to run if you use a specific Level combination to Summon him. Add another Flamvell Magician, and some Flamvell Firedogs.--Akiza Izayoi (talk • contribs) 19:17, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

So, im thinking about taking the tricky out, cyber dragon, and the two dark resonators. Add in 3 firedogs, 1 flamvell, and maybe 1 rekindling ? The thing is, if i limit myself to just level 4's i'd have to be forced to make an attack before i can synchro something, whereas pulling out a tricky/cyber/sirocco|gale and pulling out a level 3 tuner and synchro first turn. I dont really attack with stardust unless im feeling confident, since i usually wait to assault mode it because a lot of people run d prisons now. the 4/4 , 5/3 combos allow easier playability and more options. What do you think ?

I think that you'll end up with a 4/5 or 3/4 combination more often than not, and that certainly isn't good. If you set it up right, you won't have to always use Firedog to get Stardust out. More Instant Fusions plus a Level 4 Tuner can get out your Stardust quite fast, as can Summoner Monk + Level 4 Tuner.

Overall, I highly recommend removing all Level 3 and Level 5 Monsters, and adding in those Firedogs, Magicians, and Mist Valley Soldiers (Add Trap Eater to your side deck, to stop Royal Oppression!). More Instant Fusions would help as well, by replacing Swords of Revealing Light and Scrap-Iron Scarecrow.--Akiza Izayoi (talk • contribs) 20:02, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

Ohh alright, so ill add in the firedogs, one more magician and ill take out the 5/3's. I think i might keep the gale in if i have an extra card slot mainly because its a great way for me to take down any strong opposing monster on the field like especially a stardust or something. Do you recommend adding a rekindling ? Ive seen some strats that uses rekindling for instant synchros especially once the firedogs/magicians are dead. So also add in two more instant fusions ? Alright. and ill take out the swords/scrap iron for those

A single Rekindling isn't a bad idea. You could remove Call of the Haunted for it. Why don't you edit the list to the changes that have been made, and test out the changes using proxies?--Akiza Izayoi (talk • contribs) 21:11, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

Alright i reupdated the list with the suggestions. I kept the gale in because i think gale can save me a bunch of times, especially if i can probably pull a level 5 with instant fusion. Do you know any other level 4/3 fusion monsters ? I just need to pick up random fusions for instant.
