I posted a Blue-Eyes  deck a while back; I don't wish to say that "you must build your deck like my deck," however you're running an awful lot of redundant and/or situation cards that have little to no synergy between one another.

Cards that you want:
- Blue-Eyes Alternative Dragon
- White Spirit Dragon
- Sage with Eyes of Blue
- Ancient White Stone of Legend
- Gospel of Revival
- Trade-In
- Possibly Dragon Shrine
- Felgrand, the Great Divine Dragon if running Dragon Shrine

All these cards have synergy between each other and open up a lot of plays - it does mean a non-linear playstyle, but a non-linear playstyle is much more difficult to counter than a one-trick pony deck.

Also, if you want to run the Ritual version of Blue-Eyes, get:
- Lord of the Red
- Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon
- Advanced Ritual Art
- Pre-Preparation of Rites
- Manju of a Thousand Hands
- Red-Eyes Transmigration

These cards open up a very different playstyle, aiming for power plays with Lord of the Red and MAX Dragon. Choose as you wish.

Cards you definitely don't want:
- Polymerization (and associated Fusion monsters)
Polymerization requires a really specific set of cards to be in your hand/your side of the field, and they don't always show up, considering the lack of search. To put it another way, it isn't a consistent card, since you can't consistently (i.e. 9 times out of 10) use it when you have it.

- Axe of Despair
Your monsters already have enough ATK; its just redundant.

- Dragon Shield
Is similarly redundant. Blue-Eyes isn't a helmet deck (i.e. a deck that revolves around protecting one monster) and you would be better off with more search.

- Beacon of White
The effect of this is really meh considering how situational it is, and generally isn't worth even running 1 of.

- Destruction Potion
Considering that there are so many better trap cards (bottomless trap hole, torrential tribute, solemn warning, solemn strike to name a few), why this?

- Magic Cylinder
A fun card, but you need a strategy behind it - here, it's not necessary.

- Mirror Force
There are many different variation of mirror force: if you want to run mirror force, run drowning mirror force.

Happy deck building.

Thank you for the help, though i'm still going to run polymerization, because it's actually the main focus of the deck.

While i do reccomend a drowning mirror force too, its trigger condition(only responding to a direct attack) makes it a bit more situationnal than mirror force, so i wouldn't take mirror force out of the deck totally. If the goal is to circumvent monster effects that makes them immune to mirror force, i'll recommend storming mirror force as well. Storming force have the same trigger conditions than mirror force and work just as well, especially against monsters summonned from the extra deck where being send back to the hand is pretty much the same as being destroyed except much less monsters are immune to that/have effects that trigger when sent back to the extra deck.

Blazing force can be good too.

But in the other hand, if you keep mirror force there's a card i'll suggest to use with : the fang of critias and the mirror force dragon. the monster is quite good(how many times did he turned the tides for me, i can't count anymore), fit well with the blue eyes theme (that card was played by kaiba after all) and is fairly simple to summon. the only drawback is the fang is a dead draw if you draw it without a mirror force around.

But that's something you could easily remedy by only putting one critias in your deck to minimize the odds and putting more melody of the awakening dragon : it will be the perfect card to discard if you don't have a legendary white stone around.

Also, ancient white stone could work very well in a blue eyes deck and works even better with melody.

If you want to play the fusion monsters, i'll reccomend focusing on improving the draw/summon engine of the deck to make it easier to have the right cards around. I play a blue eyes deck myself and i don't have much trouvle to pull of a neo ultimate or a twin burst.

I don't reccomend pot of duality, though, the drawback of the card is quite problematic in a blue eyes deck and there's better cards to use in a blue eyes deck to draw, like trade-in.

here's my deck in an attached file to see for yourself.

What i'm trying to do here is summon fusion monsters with either dragon's mirror or polymerization.
Hence me running dragon ravine, elemental hero prisma and five god dragon

yeah, i get what you mean, the bit about mirror force dragon was more a offhand remark than anything else.

Basically, you can follow most of overlord duck's advice : just ignore the bit on polymerization since you'll need it. Especially switch beacon of white for silver's cry/gospel of revival, it's basically the same effect in better.

besides that, i reccomend again the ancient white stone, it fit perfectly in your deck.

maiden with eyes of blue is also very good to stall/ summon blue eyes form anywhere.

Also, foolish burial can be really good to speed up things : either you send a regular dragon to the graveyard just like with dragon's shrine, either you send ancient white stone and it also allow you to summon a blue eyes.
Sorry if my english sucks. If you feel like correcting me, go ahead, i'll be glad to improve myself.

Just FYI, Pre-Preparation of Rites doesn't work with Chaos Form or Advanced Ritual Art. The Ritual Spell must directly specify a monster for Pre-Prep to work.

wait a second, did you just registered only to say that ? :D

actually, i just called the deck like that because you were my first opponnent to use it. I did based my deck on our replays but i added some modifications myself. (among other things, you didn't used gospel of revival or critias, and you had a couple more of level 1 tuners.

Good surprise though, I was wondering if i could see you again one day. And sorry if it offended you, I didn't meant to take any credit for that deck.
