What's the deal with Six Samurai and Lightsworn?

Sorry I haven't written anything for a week. I've been really busy...

There were no Six Samurai or Lightsworn decks in the top 32 of YCS Toronto. It's a little surprising. Lightsworns have the ability to summon multiple devastating boss monsters. Six Samurai decks can still explode and if they do victory is followed almost always. So what happened?

Lightsworn decks are based on chance. If you mill the right cards you win and if you don't you lose. It's really that simple. It would appear chance wasn't favoured towards Lightsworn that weekend.

Six Samurai decks lost a little bit consistency with the limiting of Smoke Signal. Limiting Shi En also hurt the deck possibly more than people realized because once its gone its gone. However I believe this deck is 10 times better than Lightsworn. It did come in the top 4 of YCS Ecuador which proves the deck still has a fighting chance.

That's all for today!
