I'll do what I can with what little brain power I have left... this late.

Run the level 4.
You are missing the best Android ally, 14.
You need HUH???
There's no excuse in not running a Location/Battleground. You need one. There are too many of them that can utterly rip this deck to shreds if it hits the table. EDQ can help, but you run like only 3 DBs. And you go to full for 3 turns. Not something I would want to do, unless I really knew what I was doing. A lot of your non-combats are terrible, like Unexpected Company and Gohan's Peaceful Stance. You run quite a few drills... but fail to see that Orange Focusing Drill is the sole card that makes Orange MBS work. You need three. It is that vital to protecting Orange Drill decks. You've got a vast array of random energy attacks. Some are really good choices (Scatter Shot), some bad choices (18's Palm Blast), and some you need to max out on (Stare Down, Prepared Stance). You've got a lot of work to do in this area. I won't write it all out for you, but with some playtesting you'll realize that some of your choices don't help much, since you know you need to access your allies to deal the big damage.

You need 3 Trunks Energy Sphere and 3 Android 18's Stare Down. No deck should be allowed to exist without 3 TES and 3 Confrontation (hero) or 3 Android 18's Stare Down (villian). They are that important to this game, in my opinion.

You also don't run many ways to jump to Level 3. The whole point of Android 20 is to hit that level and kill your opponent with two physicals doing 24 life cards. Thus, I think you've chosen the wrong character for this kind of deck. Test it and see. Android 20 doesn't have the ability to mess with his hand, and you might be getting hands full of Drills.

Good luck. If you can get this to work, by all means, use it. I think Android 18 as a Main Personality will serve better with much greater control.
