Wydars can work with open centre, but there are other Legend builds that work better with Open Centre weapons.

And given that Count Dawn's group (Night Witch, Clear and Wolfman, Gutz) allow for a Closed Centre wall that's hard to get over when combined with other Counter Spells, it's easier to run a Closed Centre version. And most Closed Centre decks use Rune Staff as their Item, to assist with gauge costs, as well as life costs for Weiterstadt.

As such, using Slyph as your Buddy, with your current line-up of items, isn't advisable. Which is why PST changed your buddy. Prof, you should really properly explain your choices to the new players :/

For my suggestion, with your current decklist, is to remove Cetus (his size blocks over half of your cards. He does work in a Wydar deck, but not this one.) Replace Loyal Unicorn with Red Eyed Succubus (which you know already), Take out one Symbel Gard and in its place add 1 Breathen Gard (Breathen is way more useful, and increases the chance of using Symbel for free), consider looking at Scorn of Gremlin  and Great Spell, Weiterstadt for their ability to stop attacks with a Closed Centre. Also Power of Mythology has versatility, but isn't reusable, so it needs to be run in high numbers.

If you are going the closed-centre route, then replace Gungnir with Star Bow, Artemis Arrow. And fit Rune Staff in there.

There are many other choices I would/could make if it were my deck, but experiment and see what happens. Over time you'll get a feel for which cards are right for which deck.
