Deck Fix 14- RFG Horus- a friend

Dear PDtamer03,
could you help me out with my deck please? I want to make it better but i don't know how.

monsters- 23
caius the shadow monarch x2
chaosrider gustaph x2
D.D survivor x3
exiled force x2
cyber dragon x2
D.D assailant x2
snipe hunter x1
D.D warrior lady x1
mirage dragon x2
neo-spacian grand mole x1
horus lvl 6 x3
horus lvl 8 x1
jinzo x1

magic-13
dimensional fissure x3
reinforcement of the army x2
giant trunade x1
enemy controller x2
heavy storm x1
smashing ground x1
shrink x2
rush recklessly x2

trap-6
return from the different dimension x1
royal decree x2
mirror force x1
torrential tribute x1


.. the idea behind this deck is to get d.d survivor and dimension fissure out as fast as possible so that it creates a very mean chain when i tribute survivor. of coarse the horus lock will be in here. caius is in here for some extra removal action. gustaph is in here because i think he'd be a good beatstick with how many magic cards i run. the spells are mostly to keep my monsters alive.the problem i run into is i either get the fissure/survivor chain going but can't get out horus lvl 8 or i get out lvl 8 but haven't any trace of the chain. help would be greatly appreciated.

This version of RFG Horus is pretty brutal given the right cards come into your hand. D.D. Scout Plane becomes tribute fodder for Horus and enemy controller. You have plenty of Field control elements, and thus many options to lead to a steady pace of the game and eventually and victory. Play this deck conservatively, only making moves that you know are going to go through.
