Here is my 50-card Lightsword Horus Bystial Centur-Ion pile, probably the most chaotic deck I've ever reached Master I with. Very fun to play, You do have some fixed/linear plays to get into the Centur-Ion combos, depending on what Centur-Ion and Lightsworn cards you draw, but the mills can change everything and open up plenty of possibilities!

After several iterations of the deck, ranging from 45 to 60 cards, I've settled for this 50-card build, which is decently consistent and has good grind game capabilities. I went for an almost "pure gas" approach, with little non-engine, not only due to space but also you don't want to mill handtraps.

The video linked below has some combos, but the basic idea is that the Lightsworn monsters, with their Synchro capabilities, can easily get you to the Centur-Ion part of the deck without even using your normal summon most of the times, summoning Cosmic Blazar Dragon during your first turn. The Horus can make Zombie Vampire to kick off or extend your plays, and the Bystials are really good in conjunction with both the Lightsworns and the Centur-Ion to make Lvl 10 Synchros and provide extra disruption on top of that.

I hope you enjoy the deck, feel free to leave your ideas and feedback, I always appreciate those! Happy dueling!

Very fun version of the deck, tearlaments is probably the better engine but I really just enjoy this versions playstyle more. Chaos Ruler would of been amazing in this deck if it were still legal..

Striker Dragon enables easy seals access and can be a lightsworn starter if you draw too many dragonlings with no other real plays, i dont advise cutting it but omega is cuttable if you would prefer other tech options like dweller since this deck has very little issues turboing out rank 4s.

Lightsworn with 3 Engines: Chaos, Performage & Danger!

Lightsworn Dragons:

Punishment Dragon can recover banished non-Lightsworn cards & is a "soft reset" against Runick.
Judgment Dragon can be used as a material for Baronne / Zombie Vamp.

Chaos Engine Choices:

Wyverburster, Collapserpent, Valkyria & Seyfert are just one-offs to lessen bricks.
Seyfert recovers JD / PD from GY.
Chaos Creator recovers banished monsters.
Chaos Space searches JD, PD & Creator.
Levianeer / Chaos Nephthys can replace JD as Level 8 material for Zombie Vamp but Nephthys (being a Winged Beast-type) is harder to search.

Why Eschatos over Protos?

Same reasoning with Nephthys, Eschatos is easier to search than Protos (being a Wyrm-type). Protos is also harder to summon & harder to recover when banished / in GY. Also, when going 2nd, with Cyberse & Wyrm monsters running rampant, Eschatos is the better choice. Running complete Nemeses Engine would help but it would remove the hand traps.

Extra Deck Choices:

Dragon of Heaven is not necessary but is a good Xyz material for Zombie Vampire if you lack another Level 8. JD's destruction effect is better since it's not SOPT & will not lock you out of summoning.
Both Michael & DoH can be replaced by Hope Harbinger, Zeroboros, Gryphon or other generic ED cards. For me, I prefer Michael's effects.
Minerva, Curious, Chaos Ruler & Zombie Vampire help with the mills.
Leviair recovers banished materials for Extra Deck summon.

Quite standard Chaos build, no zombies, no Thunder Dragons. There is no main play, because depending on your hand, you'll have to make very different plays. What you should try turn 1, is to end on Halq + Dagda for the Extra Deck lock.

Fairy Tail Snow as usual is the star of these kind of decks that allows it to summon itself multiple times a turn on either players turn to flip down the opponent as well as be a body.

The deck also has a Rhongo wincon and uses a Lightsworn engine to get there with the help of Selene and other spellcasters to help make Selene (Lumina,Twilight-Lumina,Snow,Trick Clown)

The idea is you want to get to a situation where you have at least 1 Lightsworns banished, Lightsworns in grave(at least 1 of Lumina, Twilight Lumina, and a Warrior Lightsworn), at least 3 spells in either grave for Selene.

You want to link into Selene and use her effect to revive Twilight Lumina, and use her to banish Lumina and special Lumina. \nThen Lumina will discard a card to revive either of the Level 4 Warriors, Garoth or Raiden. Garoth is preferred since Twilight Lumina will trigger to mill 3 and Garoth will trigger to mill 2, and Garoth isnt once per turn.\nNow since Selene isnt hard once per turn you make one more Selene using, Lumina, and Twilight Lumina as material and you repeat the combo to get out another Level 4 Warrior Lightsworn\nAt this point Twilight Lumina + Lumina become Gossip Shadow, and the 2 level 4 Warrior Lightsworn become Rhongo\nAnd you use Gossip Shadow effect to give Rhongo at least 5 materials.

Usually you also summon another monster at this point to link with Selene into a Zeroboros, so you summon Snow on the opponents turn to its link marker which will banish the whole field.
