==Deck=====Anime=Decks==Lawton plays an a '''[[Gun Ogre]] Burn Deck''' which focuses on [[send]]ing [[Spell Card|Spell]] and [[Trap Card|Trap]] Cards from his field to the [[Graveyard]] in order to deal [[Effect Damageeffect damage|damage]] to his opponent. Like most residents of [[Crash Town]], his cards have an Old West theme, but his cards reflect the most powerful artillery used in that era, including the Gatling gun and cannons. In the event that he doesn't finish off his opponents during his first [[turn]], he uses [[monster]]s that seem to be more powerful evolutions of each other, which also have the [[effect]]s of being able to [[Special Summon]] the previous stage if the more powerful stage is destroyed. He also seems to play a number of Trap Cards that can be [[activate]]d while in the [[Graveyard]], so he can still activate them while using them as "ammo" at the same time.
