A.) You have tomany cards
B.) You need to pick a theme card or theme in general and then a support line up.
C.) Read the follwing:

Quote : Originally Posted by Hajime Saito

Deck Name: For all you duelist out there who don’t have a name for your deck, name it. It allows for you to become more mentally connected with your “creation”

Theme: The theme is the decks’ actions it takes to win a duel.
By: Its author, pretty simple to understand

Theme Card(s): What is the key card in the deck. Like for Yugi it was Dark Magician, for Joey it was Red Eye’s Black Dragon, for Jaden it’s Elemental Hero’s, for Chazz it’s the Ojama Brothers! What’s yours?

Cost: Every thing has a cost. So what do you think the more expensive the better?

Skill Level: This is the most important thing of all. Since you are a duelist, you’ll win duels and lose some. An experienced player is nothing more then some one who can learn from the losing experience to never make those same mistakes again. The system is set up to show what kind of skill is necessary to win the duel with the deck. But understand that these decks are nothing more then simple canvas’s waiting to be painted on BY YOU. Once you have mastered play the deck you’ll see what changes should be made to the deck of your choice. Even if you are a beginner, this is how you become experienced.

Also on each link the decks list the total cards, the number of Monsters, the number of Spell and the number of Traps in the deck. This allows for a quick mental analysis of the deck.

So whats the next step? Simple build your own. A deck is comprised of 2 things Theme and Support. As an example:

Theme: Blue Eye’s White Dragon

Support: Kaibaman, Paladin of White Dragon, Lord of D. with Flute of Summoning Dragon and Burst Steam Attack.

A theme is what the actions the deck would take to achieve its victory. For an Exodia deck it would be Exodia, for a Chaos Control it would be Chaos Sorcerer and for a the deck above it would be a Blue Eye’s Theme deck. The theme is pretty simple to find. Ask you self these 2 questions:

1.)What is the major card effect(s) that are in the deck?
2.) Can the deck be supported by the other cards?

“BUT WAIT...” you ask, “HOW DO I SUPPORT MY DECK?!?!?!” Its simple.

A deck’s support only allows for the deck to either create a Catalyst OR Defend.

Catalyst: a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change.

Defend: resist an attack on; protect from harm or danger

A Catalyst is something that would speed up the theme of your deck. Like for Exodia you would add cards that would increase your ability to draw or lower the number of cards in your deck in a matter of turns! In a Warrior deck people use a spell card called Reinforcements of the Army. This card allows for a Catalyst to be formed. It allows them to search their deck for 95+% of their warriors in their deck! But understand that a Catalyst speeds the entire deck not just 1 combo or strategy. So adding 1 Limiter Removal to your deck just because you run 1 Cyber Stein doesn’t make the addition of Limiter Removal a support card.

Defend is pretty simple to understand, you’re just defending your theme from the dreaded “anti” theme. When a duelist play Macro Cosmos his biggest fear is his opponent playing cards to destroy his Macro Cosmos so in offer to defend this he runs cards that can protect it. Like Solemn Judgement and multiple copies of Macro Cosmos and possibly other cards which have very similar effects like Dimensional Fissure!

Once you have thought out what your Theme and Support are pick out a series of cards you want to use. Pick out the card(s) you want to be as the theme and start to build the support for the deck. When you’re finished you should have a 40 card deck. We all stress NO MORE since it would decrees your chances of drawing good hands and clumping cards together. Once you have done this document your theme, total card count, total monsters, spells and trap cards in your deck.

Finally if your Side Deck. Unknown to most duelist around the world, a side deck isn’t just 15 random cards. They are 15 cards which allow for you deck to either Increase its Catalyst OR defensive strategies in the main deck. So if you are playing the Structure Spell Caster’s Judgment theme deck and your opponent is beating you with his Face Down Spell and Trap cards. The next round you should Side in cards which would work well with your Dark Magician since he is the Theme card of the deck and the perfect card to work with him would be Dark Magic Attack. But understand that a Side Deck isn’t something that you build in 20 minutes after making your Main Deck. You need to test your Main Deck to see what are the problems in it. Fix those problems and side deck cards to over come those problems. If there is any room left you could possibly add a twist to your side deck. In example there was a Burn Deck run at a Shonen Jump Championship long ago. Its main deck was nothing more then massive burn cards. So when his opponent side decked to stop his Effect Damage, he’d side out all of his Effect Damage Cards and replace them with Cyber Stein. Now his opponent has absolutely no way to stop the onslaught!

Hajime, you're turning into the Half of Deck Depot...

first, I don't know what BBTD is... I'm drawing a blank there.

Second, you're gonna have to drop Raigeki, Pot of Greed, Cyber Jar, and two Spirit Reaper to make it Advance-format Friendly.

Then, we'll do this:

LOSE:

hyozanryu
charcoal inpachi
dokoichi the freightening car x2
hayabusa knight
winged kuriboh
medusa worm
7 colored fish
e-hero Bubbleman
newdoria
luster dragon
cyber archfiend
swift gaia the fierce knight
golem sentry

fissure
scapegoat
Chaos Greed
Soul Release x2
ring of defense
different Dimension Capsule
Precious Cards from Beyond

bbtd
negate attack x2
skill drain
sakuretsu armor
trap hole
Dust Tornado x3
curse of darkness
spellbinding circle
needle ceiling
Magic Cylinder

So, that should leave your deck looking like this:

2x Dekoichi
Dark Mimic Lv. 3
2x dark Mimic Lv. 1
Spirit Reaper
Morphing Jar #2

magical mallet
graceful charity
mystical space typhoon
lightning vortex
Monster Reincarnation

Bottomless Trap Hole
2x Jar of Greed
Reckless Greed
Ring of Destruction

Ok? When it looks like that, then add:

Exodia the Forbidden One
Right Arm of the Forbidden One
Left Arm of the Forbidden One
Right Leg of the Forbidden One
Left Leg of the Forbidden One
Dekoichi the Battlechanted Locomotive
Dark Mimic Lv. 1
3x Des Lacooda
3x Emissary of the Afterlife

Card Destruction
Monster Reincarnation
2x magical mallet
2x Dark Factory of Mass Production

Reckless Greed
Jar of Greed
2x Backup Soldier

So, after that, the deck looks like:

x5 Exodia
3x Dekoichi
3x dark Mimic Lv. 1
3x Emissary of the Afterlife
3x Des Lacooda
dark Mimic Lv. 3
Spirit Reaper
Morphing Jar #2

Card Destruction
3x Magical Mallet
2x Dark Factory of Mass Production
Graceful Charity
MST
lightning Vortex
2x Monster Reincarnation

3x jar of Greed
2x Reckless Greed
2x backup Soldier
Bottomless Trap Hole
Ring of Destruction

Total: 40 cards.
It should work, but ask more people after you fix it up

then try to keep BBTD in...

How did I miss that???

For cards you don't have, we have the Trading Forum... where friendly people will try to lie, cheat, steal, and rip you off. So only deal with people that are reputable.

probably better not to...stick with odd's suggestions for now, try that out in a few duels, and see where that takes you. exxod and the sphinxes need a deck built around them, and can't really be splashed in an exodia deck.

if you wanted to make it traditional, which seems counterproductive. haven't built an exodia deck in years, so i'm not sure what else you could add in place of emissary. i'm almost tempted to say cyber dragons...some recruiters might work, or the specific recruiters like momonga or giant germ (momonga probably safer)...like i said, i'm outdated...maybe some monster removal (sak, smashing, etc.)?

It would be better if you read what I posted.

"Giving a fish to a man will only feed him for today. Teaching a man to fish will feed him for life."

Translation: It wouldn't make sense for us to build, rate or fix your deck if you don't understand the basic essentials of make a deck in the first place.
