Katsu! Un~

[Kailyn Kyosuke]

Okay...so this time I think I really could use some help. I've generated this purely off of theory, as I main a mental power w/Ino Shika Cho theme, but have been struggling to get Deidara off the ground. (my current is Face up BR Dei)

So...with that said, here's the mess of a deck I've concocted. As you might expect, it is heavily jutsu based, but I'm looking to get this sorta working. I feel like there could be better draw power, but am reluctant to cut early ninjas or jutsus. Most of my late ninjas are deidara himself...so there's a little less room to work with.

Anyway, thoughts on this mission-scarce build?

Suggestions? I'm aiming to remain Deidara focused, but also have enough strength to fight early and mid game, and make the end an explosion~

I'm sure there's better ways, but for now this is what I've managed to come up with. Anyway, mostly sticking to mostly earth, but willing to do earth fire, or earth wind, since this clearly needs draw power. I did my best to fit some draw power in, but I don't know how well I did. Please critique w/constructive criticism. This is unlimited casual play, not competitive, or block.

An unlimited Deidara deck? Well okay. Where's your turn 0s? You won't have enough strength to fight early game with half the turn 0s most decks run. Because of this weird array early game you get something top heavy and you'll possibly be mulling to 4 each game.

[Kailyn Kyosuke]

I've been trying to fit in more 0s, frankly I'm not sure where to make cuts.

I get a feeling that turn 2s need to be cut down. But if you guys have any other ideas, fill me in.
