Pros

  • Able to destroy 1 Spell/Trap your opponent controls.
  • Decent ATK stats.

Cons

  • Effect can be too slow to activate, and requires switching to Defense position.
  • Weak DEF stats susceptible to position switching plays.
    Requires you to discard 3 cards from your top deck to the Graveyard during each of your End Phase.

Tips

  • Generally her effects of destroying opponent’s Spell/Trap card are too slow compared to backrow removal cards that we already have in the current meta, such as Cosmic Cyclone, Nobleman of Extermination, and Gladiator Beast Bestiari’s effect.
  • Her effect also mills from your top deck, although it can help thining your deck, but you are not able to control this effect as it is a mandatory mill that may result in you decking out.
  • You can also choose to activate Forbidden Chalice during your End Phase, as a killswitch to stop the effect of sending 3 cards from your top deck to your Graveyard.

Synergy

Since Saffira’s effect activates during your End Phase as well, and it requires LIGHT monsters to be sent to the graveyard, Lyla can provide a good synergy as it will send 3 cards from your top deck to the graveyard every End Phase. Jar of Avarice can return 5 cards from your Graveyard back to your deck and allows you to draw 1 card. Pot of Benevolence can return a total of 2 cards from either player’s Graveyard back to their deck, and shuffle the deck.

Augmentation

A Field Spell that gains Counter for every “Lightsworn” monster sent from the deck to the graveyard, and increases 100 ATK of your “Lightsworn” monster for every counter on this card. You can also remove 2 counters from this card to protect it from being destroyed.

Free backrow removal and also deck thinning.

So.. Lightsworn is kind of Jesus archetype since they all look holy and stuff with bible reference.

LoL, why do your thinking only limited to an pure Lightsworn deck? Just put a few lightsworn into a fiend or zombie deck. It gets better if Konami adds more Dark-Light combo related stuff.

I have my doubts, we don't have Judgement Dragon nor Celestia, Lightsworn Angel. Wulf, lumina, and Ryko would also be nice. Otherwise lightsworn is just an engine without a trump card.

Since card is pretty trashy since we don't have a main phase 2 in this format.

This format is trash and breaks lot of decks. I wish we had the choice to duel with the real tcg rules or fast duel

Interesting.. I really like Lightsworn but I understand the doubts of any player. I think LS could be absolutely worthless or better than ever. You will not play this deck with 20 cards, but a LS deck with 30 Cards sounds good as well, probably it has a lot more consistency, but we will see.. One as a fact; LS will not work without their leading card (Judgment Dragon), whereas Gladi is still useful even without Gyzarus, so it depens on the implementation of JD..

I ran with a ratio of lightsworn and traps and used Odion endless trap to help the self mill and redraw traps from the grave. Was able to use the lightswarm combo to destroy opp. Tech in the needle sunfish and dark gilfried for weakening opp

I love lightsworn, but in this format? I have my doubts that it would be useful.
