Having some minor space problems [Lyrical Luscinias]

[Slinky]

 

2 Kinka-Byo

1 D/D Lamia

2 Abyss Actor - Extras (effectively more Jester Confits, since you can't have more than 1 on the field at a time)

2 Raidraptor - Last Strix (larger chance of getting the combo off, despite how searchable it is, stealing games with ulti-ruri is just ugghh)

3 Turquoise Warbler (fuckkkk, this got changed into being able to special summon only if it is special'd from the hand. man, that sucks, rip Kinka -> Warbler -> Cobalt plays)

3 Sapphire Swallow (the mvp of the deck)

3 Cobalt Sparrow

3 Jester Confit

3 D/D Savant Kepler

3 Battle Fader

 

3 Allure of Darkness

2 Instant Fusion

1 One for One 

3 Where Arf Thou?

3 Rank-Up-Magic Skip Force

2 Twin Twisters (gotta have them, deck really hates backrow, since if your nightingale gets Solemn'd, you might as well throw in the towel)

1 Dark Contract with the Gate

2 Stoic Challenge (also works hilariously well with #77 and #99 if you're in a pinch, feels entirely optional though, and I don't know if I want to keep them or not)

 

3 Harpie's Feather Storm (Can't make S0 T1? Okay, plan B, bait with a Recite/Assembly and turn off your opponents monster effects instead)

 

2 Thousand-Eyes Restrict

1 Number 77

1 Number 99

1 Ultimate Falcon

1 Satellite Cannon Falcon

1 Sylvan Princessprite (was the only actual good rank 1 until the LLs)

1 Number 39: Utopia Roots

1 Number 54: Lion Heart

1 Number 63: Shamoji Soldier (Can't make S0 and don't have Feather Storm? Draw more cards and hope you have better plays next turn)

2 Recite Starling

2 Assembly Nightingale

1 S0

 

Honestly trying to drop the deck size down a little. 45 really isn't my cup of tea.

I am unsure why you would use Allure of Darkness in a 45 card deck, considering it does not advance your gamestate, while adding more ways to draw bricky Spells.

I feel like you have too much rank 1 fodder dragging down the deck. In my experience, the birds are usually enough to make a 4-5 mat Nightingale and push for game. Maybe take out or cut most of the DD engine or the Allure engine, or both.

You should take out the Skip Force. It's unsearchable, and therefore unreliable. I find that turning my Last Strix into giant spiders works well enough for a beatstick. I mean, that's all you're going to use Utopic Dragon for - a beatstick - and I don't think Utopic Zexal is enough to justify running the rank-up.

If consistency is a problem, you should take out the winmore cards. So Stoic Challenge should go.

3 Jester Confit is definitely going to clog. I'd take out the Extras too, since as Highlander pointed out, Allure does nothing for a 45 card deck. Turbo Booster's better, if you're going to drop Allure, and Evil Thorn is a pretty good 1-card Rk1 which takes up less deck space than the DD engine.

I run Pain Lanius to go with Last Strix, and Swallow's Nest and Desires for consistency.

Shamoji just benefits your opponent so much more than you that in no world is it worth running. I'd take it out for Downerd, and Lion Heart for Dullahan.
