here is just one small tip, dont go mixxing everything up like you have, stick with one thing that you find beating people with easy, like, i have about 5 decks with different attributes... one ele hero deck, one machine deck, stufff like that helps. i hope this idea helps you.

Take out the pieces of Exodia, cuz it will take to long to assemble.

Yea Exodia Decks are one of my hardest decks to use

A back up plan for this exodia deck is exodia necross.

Well it might take awhile to summon Exodia Necross, but with Foolish Burial, it won't take that long.

You have 60+ cards in that deck!
For an effective Exodia deck, limit your deck to only 40 cards.
I use this type of Exodia deck:

Monsters:
1x Exodia the Forbidden One
1x Left Leg of the Forbidden One
1x Right Leg of the Forbidden One
1x Left Arm of the Forbidden One
1x Right Arm of the Forbidden One
32x Any NORMAL MONSTER CARD (ONLY NORMAL, NO EFFECT MONSTERS!!!)

Spells:
3x Heart of the Underdog

You will win! I mean it!

Or better yet, DONT use an exodia deck, at all! And keep the deck to about 40-43 cards.

btw thelegendarylucario, i LOVE your signature...I...can't...stop...staring...*drool*

try this:
1x each one of exodia piece
1x hand destruction
3x foolish burial
3x dark factory of mass production
3x golden sealded coffin
1x graceful charity
2x wall of reaviling light
1x morphin jar #1
1x gravity bind
1x messenger of peace
1x lighting vortex
1x dna surgery (chose insect)
3x aeradicating aerosol
3x insect barrier
1x tribe insect virus
3x Giant Germ
3x mimble momonga
3x paracide parasite
1x marshmallow
1x spirit reaper

try this one

1x left arm
1x right arm
1x left leg
1x right leg
1x exodia head
1x dandylion
1x marshmallon
1x spirit reaper
3x nimble momonga
3x satalite canon
3x thunder dragon (keep shuffling that deck)
1x morphing jar
2x clock tower prison (so you dont run outa LP)
3x foolish burial
3x dark factory of mass production
3x golden sealded coffin
1x graceful charity
1x pot of avarice
1x swords of revealing light
2x upstart goblin
2x dna transplant (whatever atribute u discard from elemental absorber)
2x elemental absorber
1x magic cylinder
1x mirrior force

works for me so it should for you

uhhhhhhhhhhh

I would probably also get rid of afew of the tribute cards and replace them with level 4 or lower normal or effect cards, its hard enough to assemble exodia, trying to get a ritual summon must be challenging, Ive been taught to only have a maximum of 3 Tribute cards, sometimes I might push this to 4.

Think of the yugioh starter decks you buy at the shops......Notice how there is never a piece of exodia or more than 4/5 tribute summon cards? It's because they are so hard to assemble/summon. They give you cards to get you started so think about it. Instead of having 5 pieces of exodia which are limited to 1 each use "Destiny Board" have 3 in the deck and 1 of each spirit message. each turn destiny board summons 1 spirit message to the field so you dont hav to draw them they automatically come for you. once destiny board and all 4 spirit message's are out and spell 'FINAL' you automatically win. so dont use exodia cards they are worthless.

heres more advice...call of the haunted is banned, monster reborn is back!

I also have an exodia based deck (along with several other themes) and I put in three exodius's two exodia necross these cards really help to fall back on if you know you can't assemble all pieces, I also put in a few strong level 4 normal monsters to help out my Exodius

Get some pot of greeds, jar of greeds, and heart of the underdog. Plus anything else that will make you draw something. No effect monsters except maybe Exodia Necross, and make sure you have two if you include any. That means you should have contracts with exodia, and card destruction to make you discard the pieces.
