Yes that’s the same idea but with deck profiles or watch YouTube videos on how to play a certain deck and it gives you the actual knowledge on how the deck is mostly played in the physical card game and not the anime.

i never watch youtube videos on how to play certain decks besides if I were to watch a deck profile on youtube like darkarmedduelist for example I would just build it to exactly as he did it basically just copying someone elses deck and not changing a thing about it. In other words not building a deck from scratch if someone else build it.

You can still make it from scratch, you use the deck profile as a guide on how to play the deck and then learn more then build your own take of the deck.

building a deck from scratch means starting from square 1 without using anyone else's deck build to start with.

It's these self imposed rules are why you're bad at deck building.

Humble yourself. Go to youtube, grab a deck, learn to play a workable version. You can then dismantle it when you feel you have a grasp on the deck then you can recreate it knowing what the deck is capable of doing. It's the fastest way for you to get better.

Hell how is posting your decks here, asking for help or feedback any different? You're still making changes to the decks with feedback from other players so you can get to a workable state.

Also NEVER use Duel Links as a base for the TCG/OCG, you'll just get clapped.

1) The reason why I don't change decks that I copied from deck list videos is because they are perfect as they are and do not see any reason to change them
2) It is different because I built them from the ground up. I'll admit experience with the cards has some involvement but that is all.
3) I stopped using duel links as a base a long time ago
Besides last I checked some of you guys said I should quit asking others to make decks and start building decks by myself. Copying decks from decklist videos or online is practically asking indirectly.

Good defensive card

Good defensive card

Yeah, years ago, but not nowadays. You should cut that out for either hand traps or more engine cards or searchers. Battle traps like that are too slow for today's meta and aren't worth it anymore. That card will most likely get destroyed by a Knightmare Phoenix, or some of the many other backrow cards that exist nowadays. Sacrificing 1 card to just banish an opponent's attacking monster and nothing else isn't good enough anymore. The opponent will most likely have a negate or something ready by then.

I can't narrow the search in the card engine for hand traps

that’s the research part on you look at the hand traps people are playing nowadays do they fit the deck or how you don’t wanna be disrupted or disrupt your opponent.

Just use the article and youtube video I linked. They show most of the relevant hand traps. If there's any one of them you don't recognize, let me know and I'll explain it to you.
