Possible Side Deck Cards

Finding good a side deck is crucial. But often it's the hardest part. Here are some cards that I side against in my local meta. (I assume you know all these cards, if not just visit the yugioh.wikia.com site for card info)

Blackwing, Sirroco the Dawn
Blackwing are one of those decks that can still otk in this format. They swarm and pump and drop kaluts and in a matter of seconds it is all over. So by using this card you can use there massive field presence against them. Just pump attack. They will be forced to drop Kaluts.

Jujitsu Master
A fun card, that make sures that if Gladiator Beast or Shuras get return and those cards don't receive their pluses.

Soul Release
Removing from play 5 monsters from a Lightsworn deck can prove fatal to the Lightsworn user. It can be be even fatal by using it against zombies, by removing their plagues, Mezukis and so on. They will be forced to used their burials earlier than expected. The only problem that this card has, is that it is not fast enough to be a big enough treat. If only this card was a Quick Play.

Scapegoats
Lightsworn mill like there is no tomorrow. And when they can, they drop JD, and finish you off. By running scapegoats, you have a chance of staying alive after JD hits. They would have to either sacrifice 1000 life points again or just keep milling 4 cards a turn. And if they think that paying life points to get rid of 4 tokens is to much, you can punish them with synchroing. Though this is definatley not meant to go against BW, EVA.

Royal Decree
Effectively stops any GB decks and Skill Drain/Oppression Decks and the odd chain burn. It also gets rid of pesky Bottomless, that get in the way of you setting up your final attack.

Nobleman of Extermination
If you hit a War Chariot or Waboku GBs are as good as gone. And it can also be used to hit skill drain and oppressions.

D.D. Crow
Nothing much to say, good card and is almost staple in every side deck.

Fairy Wind
Oppression/Skill Drain hate. Plus it burns them in the process.

Imperial Iron Wall
In my eyes, this is a very underrated side. It stops zombies, vayu turbo, macro and any deck the runs Sacros. It also stops their BTH.

Lightning Vortex
If this isn't already mained than you can definitely side this card in. It effectively gets rid of dead cards in hand and get rid of the fast swarming abilities of lightsworn, zombies and blackwings. Which the last time I checked, these decks are top tier.

This is some of my side that I feel can help people improve. Though I do change my side a lot, these cards are the ones I rarely feel like I need to take out of my side.
