This is just my opinion so don't take it literally too much. Considering your draw power, you will most likely end up with dead draws a lot so I suggest you just add in 3 Reckless Greed. Yeah, Upstart is pretty bad in my opinion.
As for side, use Iron Wall if you hate Rulers or ES. I forgot the card before Maxx "C" but don't use it. Mind Crush is a good card for that deck. Cloak and Dagger is a good card since it's a trap card but you know the drill on how it should activate first.
Another good side card is D.D. Crow because it banishes even during effect. System Down for Geargias, Full House for Fire Fist, Wiretap or Traptrix (Trap card), Gozen Match, I don't think you need it too much.
Hmm... Soul Drain, sure, Skill Drain is easily bypassed. That's all I can think off for now.
