http://vmundi.blogspot.com/2012/05/deep-clan-nova-grappler.htmlStar Blue Wisdom or Iron Ball deck lists. You're somewhere in the middle of both of these. Give them both a look.
You don't need 8 stands with your Death Armies, Stern, and Dancing Wolf. Go with crits. You have nothing with an on-hit threatening effect so stands are not as effective.
Rutile isn't serving much purpose here since his effects only work on VC and Stern is a relatively reliable ride chance. A better backup would be something with a 11k body (Azure Dragon, Asura Kaiser). If you want to run Rutile, check that build in the above link. That deck DOES focus on threatening with a lot of on-hits and powerful standalone columns (Jack).
Death Armies with only 7 G3s? No. 3 Perfect Guards? No, use 4.
