Forum:My Attempt at "Anti-Meta"

The following deck is my attempt at an "Anti-Meta" deck. The last time I played in a tournament the "Meta" was: Blackwings, Gladiator Beasts, Lightsworns, and basically anything that special summoned a lot!

This deck tries to stop my opponent from special summoning any monsters. The choice of Vanity's Fiend is obvious. Prime Material Dragon is there to provide basic protection for my monsters. The Blowback Dragons can help me destroy random cards. Neo-Spacian Grand Mole can bounce back anything that made it on to the field before I could start my "lock". With some stalling and these monsters: Dekoichi the Battlechanted Locomotive & Skelengel I have a source of draw power and additional tribute fodder for my 7 tribute monsters. I know there are many continuous spells and traps out there that could hurt my deck... So, that is why I have two Breaker the Magical Warriors and the other spell and trap destruction that you see in the deck.

I would like help making this deck as good as possible at preventing special summons. For instance: Lightsworns tend to use: Honest. Should I use: Divine Wrath ? How about Solemn Judgment ? Should I add more mass destruction like: Torrential Tribute and Needle Ceiling ? Should I add more stall cards such as: Thunder of Ruler ? Is the spell and trap destruction in this deck enough to stop Royal Decree from killing my deck ?

I would love any suggestions, comments, and constructive criticism in general! Thank you all in advance for your time and help!
