Help with Shiranui

[LDvergil]

Id like some advice from peeps here on my Shiranui Deck

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2221709830

Just invested more into it and wanted a little more help and tips on cards that would be great for this deck that doesn't really get covered in duel links meta if anyone is up to date with that and also is Dragon's Mirror worth investing into the deck?

I don't have much of any experience actually playing the deck and I also don't have the best cards to tech in like 3x ballista or fiendish chains. Would the second best option be to just use popular spells and traps from duel links deck builder list?

I did an unfinished update on the deck!

You need the level 3 tuner, you dont even have a way of summoning Squiresaga with the second build you will also want a second copy of her, if you're gonna run Necro Dragon then you want Zombie World to take full advantage of its effect otherwise it's a mediocre beat stick.

Thanks dude, is the Dragon mirror worth digging for, for the Necro build?

The Dragon's Mirror card seems really cool to have for the future.

id remove samurai skull (too slow and easy to bypass) and one shade (one is enough, u might even want to remove it completely in exchange for more backrow protection). kuriboh sphere good but beware of triamid.

raigeky break and ballista are perfect for this archetype (especially the latter) bcs they let u send monsters u want to be in your graveyard while slowing down your opponent, difficult to be replaced and expecting the same consistency. dragon mirror is usefull to unclog your field, but overall a bit slow (keep in mind u cant use it if you special summon from the deck with squire) and easy to be popped especially in a mirror match.

Personally, no, not any more, when Shiranui were new I would have said yes because Nethersoul used to be a daunting threat however is too easily popped by this point.

Remove the Skull, DO NOT cut Shade to 1, you want to have backups in your deck incase your Synchros are destroyed or sent back to the deck, only having thay 1 Shade will make recovery exceptionally difficult.

Not calling you out Rudol it's just more efficient and consistent to make 2 in the deck.

Thanks for the input, don't know if I wanna blow my load of gems for ballista until new world drops and xyz cards come out.

answer based on your second screenshot:

Add 1 Lancea if you have one or Chaos Hunter, reason being to prevent banish effects and in case of Chaos Hunter to tribute over Floodgated or Chained monster, for this you can also use Nine Tailed Fox.
Add 1 Karma Cut/Fiendish if you have one or backrow disruption if you don't (Cyclone/Trunade or AMA) or play a 3rd Spectralsword, cut Golden Sarc for it.

Extra Deck:
cut Squiresaga
cut Necro Dragon
add Ha Des
add a second Sunsaga

My deck now looks like this,

I don't have some of the cards you mentioned. I will cut the gold sarc to see how that plays but the Chaos hunter though... Don't I want my cards getting banished? OOOOO I just got what you meant. I'll change up my deck further.

Also witch would be better to put in Chaos or Lance?

why two samurai? most decks currently dont even run one. mostly u are going to use it with sarcophagus to get back in the hand a monster from the gy, or at least thats what i do.

I myself run 2 Samurai for one reason, if my opponent slams down a hard to remove monster and I have Spiritmaster in the GY (which is like... always) I can either...

Set Samurai and bait my opponents attack to banish their monster as Samurai doesn't target OR destroy and if I banish Spirit from grave I also get a free pop too...

Or I can just crash into their monster for the same effect.

Is samurai the one that banishes an opponents monster by banishing a shiranui in the GY?
