I might add in flying weapon...
Thats a good point, although I don't know where I could fit them in.  It would also be nice to get rid of phase shields.  I could probably drop one tower and count on the mulligan, but I would like to have at least 2 explosions if I was putting them in. 

Maybe -1 tower, -1 fire buckler, +2 explosion

It could work.
Actually, are the Towers entirely necessary? I haven't played the deck (But it looks fun, and I'll definitely make it when I have the cards) but it would appear to me that the Supernovas could give you the 2 :entropy to start it off, and then let you play the Brimstone Eaters which can easily fuel the rest of your :fire cards. Ofc, you'd be faced with the problem of having to draw them both to actually get anything done, which actually makes me think that they are good. Also, you can get them fairly easily due to auto-mulligan.
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.

Why are you using fire bucklers instead of say improved fog? If your opponent had enough damage output his creatures would kill you even if some of them died along the way. You could actually put in one improved antimatter since you're using  :entropy mark.

Recommended modifications: -3 fire buckler, -1 protect artifact, +2 improved fog, +2 improved antimatter, -1 quint, +1 flying weapon
I really like where you are going with this.  Antimatter is such a great card.  Of course, with antimatter in, fire shield has to come out.  I do not approve of taking out 1 protect artifact, as I do not believe it is effective to have 1 of any card in a deck. 

Maybe -3 fire buckler -1 tower, +2 fog, +2 antimatter

I actually started this deck pillarless, but the problem was you always had to discard 1 or 2 cards.  I am now working on a variation with 6 novas and 3 or 4 cremations.  Mark likely will still be entropy, as I like the antimatter idea.  It looks to be working pretty well.


In general, I really like where this deck is going.  Thank you to everyone for the great feedback.  Check back to the main post soon for an upgraded version

I'm sorry you didn't like it.  It sounds like you got some bad draws.  On another note, given the Fahrenheit, the deck would be amazing with 100 of each quanta.   ;)

Perhaps you were playing against false gods.  The deck is meant for PvP.

Obviously. Even with that few towers, you can get mana starvation easily. Just one black hole, a fire storm and quicksand/steals ruin this deck before it gathers enough quanta.
Totally unimpressive against anything that is not focused on pure damage.
And slower than most rush decks.

yeah, the quanta is way off right now.  I have not been playing it enough to try to fix it.  You get mana screwed pretty easily. 

On the other hand, this is still my favorite deck when it works.  It just doesn't work right 50% of the time.

50% fail rating is pretty bad. Even 30%, maybe even FOURTY (40%) would have been better. But 50% fail is 100% fail to me.

50% is an exaggeration.  It is probably closer to 20%, which is still unacceptable for me.
