Lore
For centuries upon centuries, civilizations rendered the earth near barren. Mother Gaia wept as time passed but not no more. With the remaining essence of life in earth she built a protected sanctuary filled with the last relics of the earth.

To earn these treasures elementals where met by trials, the very ground beneath the swallowed their source of energy, their blood petrified as the approached the sanctuary of living granite of an impenetrable scale. Guardians of steel and riders of the earth patrolled the sanctuary dispensing intruders with a furious frenzy. As the guardians' numbers grew their bonds replenished the granite walls making them seemingly insurmountable.

"Crumble beneath the fervour of our matron" the guardians would shout to any who would approach their lands.


Strategy

The deck has a two-fold strategy for the AI to execute. Firstly is to generate a lot of earth quanta with 3x mark and adrena-riders. If the AI uses epinephrine on golems it still does damage. The AI is to outstall you if you have a stall deck with 12 granite skins and 24 cheap creatures + feral bonds. 12 basilisk blood for CC and a mix of adrena golem/rider to overrun you if you try to rush the deck. Last but not least quicksand to bog your quanta production down. Jade shield will ensure that no lucky mono aether SoW decks get through while slowing down damage and adding secondary healing with jade staff .

I question what could kill this god.
I also question whether the name is intentionally coincidental or not.

Or the divine glory counter by dragondemesne.
(Photons and Deja Vu  +  Luciferin + Hope + Light Dragons)
Or just alfatoxin the first golem to flood the field.

Either way, took me 20 minutes to come up with those counters.  I say job well done.

IMHO, by far the most annoying part of the deck are the quicksands.
Everything else is mitigated or useless in the face of an OTK.

I think a nice counter to this deck might be kinda the deck itself.

:life :earth duo. Some protect artifacts.
Diamond shield (leaves 12 creatures dealing 3 dmg at most).
Golems, Mitosis, Feral Bonds.
23 Golems should be able to overcome early enough the healing of 4 Feral Bonds that might or might not be drawn.
Or Thorn carpace, to make feral bonds useless.
Who likes poems? :) Here are mine.

I think you might deckout because of the granite skins though. Maybe you can sneak in 3 time towers and an eternity too?
