This version is similar in many ways to your old build. Try to get as many darks into the graveyard, and then blast away with Prometheus + Return/D.D.R. for game. You can also play a full duel with this build, which means it can be OTk or a stable, long range build. Just remember to think through each turn with this, you want to catch your opponent off guard when you move in for the big kill, instead of committing cards to the field, in case it doesn't work out.
