Superalloy Beast Raptinus 

it works by getting superalloy beast raptinus out with dragon's mirror and 2 gigaplants out at the same time will he is on the feild with a mass driver and a constant cycle for game. The deck is not cosestent enough I have found. It would be great if you can help and thanks for reading this. 

Well, that's not too much to go on, but I know how the deck is to work, so I can actually help you. I've seen this deck somewhere before, so I have some ideas about how to fix this.
Basically, what you're doing with this deck is fishing through your deck rapidly (shown through the use of Ojamagic and the Ojamas) trying to get to your combo. You're aiming to have 2 Blazewing Butterfly in the Graveyard to use Dragon's Mirror on them to summon Superalloy Beast Raptinus. Then you proceed to summon Lonefire Blossom to bring out Gigaplant. Hopefully, you'll have one in the Graveyard (and that's what all the dumping and Foolish Burial is for), which you should. 

One thing that can cause a bit of problems are those Ojamagics and Ojamas. Unfortunately, there's not much to replace them with to keep the speed up here. One thing you don't want to do unless you have to is send the Ojamas to the Graveyard by Hand Destruction or Dark World Dealings since Ojamagic won't resolve unless you actually have one of each Ojama to search out. That's just one thing to keep in mind. 

To be honest, there's not much I can do to this deck because a) I've already seen the deck somewhere else (but it was in Traditional Format) and b) this version mimics the one I've already seen that works, the only difference being the Traditional / Advanced thing. 

All I have for this deck: 

- 1 Trap Dustshoot

- 1 Torrential Tribute 

Since this is an OTK deck, going for the kill for the first turn, you don't want any unnecessary Traps here slowing you down. Oh, look. We have two of those that do nothing for the OTK. Not only that, they were cards 41 and 42. We get rid of those, we're down to 40. Perfect. 

That's about all I have for this. The main problem could just be in the playing of the deck. While I'm here, I'm going to point something else out that some people might not have known about (and someone correct me if I'm wrong). The Gigaplant OTK works on Gigaplant bringing up another Gigaplant (from the hand or Graveyard) with Superalloy Beast Raptinus on the field, Tributing off one for Mass Driver, then using the other to bring back the Tributed one and Tributing off the one that wasn't Tributed off and loop for the win. Here's something else. Gigaplant can also bring back Blazewing Butterfly. Gigaplant revive Blazewing. Tribute Gigaplant for Mass Driver. Tribute Blazewing to bring back Gigaplant. Lather, rinse, repeat. 

See? There are two ways here for the OTK. I know the latter may be a bit more difficult to pull off (especially since you're using two of those Blazewings to summon Raptinus). Blazewing / Gigaplant is just another way to go about it. 

Have fun with it. Sorry I couldn't do too much for you. If you find that the deck isn't working too well still, just try changing your playing style. I can't tell you how many times that has helped me. Good luck with it.
