Fire everything! Trio Trebuchet https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=25467.msg324479#msg324479

"Sir, we're out of ammo!" Called one of the Armagio trebuchet operators.
"Well, what do we have left?" The commander asked.
"Dolls." Responded the Armagio.
"Well then, turn them ROCKS, and then THROW THEM." Said the commander, as if it was obvious.
"But sir, that's retarded." The Armagio pointed out.
"You dare question my orders? YOU'RE FIRED!" Screamed the commander.
"You can't fire me! We're in the middle of a bat-" The Armagio was cut short as he was shot at the enemy.
"His gallant sacrifice will be remembered for all eternity." The commander said solemnly.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa." Remarked the now airborne Armagio.
Shedding a single tear, the commander looked at his remaining Armagios, and shouted
"FIRE EVERYTHING!"

Now, just by looking at it, the deck looks like it'd take forever to start working. But in actuality it's quite fast. Play the pendulums, get a trebuchet out, and just start firing your creatures. Playing creatures as you need them will prevent CC. Obviously damaging CC wouldn't be a problem but it helps to avoid reverse times and mutations. Pulverizers (and other weapons) are no problem because Basilisk Blooding a Voodoo Doll will timefreeze opponents' weapons for 5 turns. If you're worried about steals/explosions you could add some protect artifacts. If you're taking heavy damage Gravity Pull an Elite Armagio and heal it with Basilisk Bloods. Alternatively just add some SOGs, or experiment with Black Holes. Opponent shields and sundials are irrelevant so permanent  control is not needed. Thought some steals to take opponent SOGS might be a good idea.

The story is beautiful.

thoughts on the deck; wouldn't you want grav pendies and another mark so that you can play trebuchets first then creatures later. Also, can you put some gravity pulls in there so you can use the ever popular bb/grav pull/ voodoo doll combo when needed?

Animated Titans might be good... Better than Dolls, and keeps it mono.

That makes it a trio (Air, Gravity, Earth).

Titans might be better than Dolls.  On one hand you need an Animate Weapon and a Titan to get it to work with Catapult, but on the other you need :darkness Pendulums and Voodoo Doll to get that to work.  Titan also deals damage in the weapon slot while you wait.

It would function as a duo though. 

I would replace some of the armagios with overdrives - they're good with spare dolls. I also think that many BBs isn't needed, and a couple could be replaced with more pends for better draws.

9 pendulums is enough, the deck doesn't use much quantum. And the BBs are the very efficient damage, +20 defense for only 1 quantum cost.

Forum defines the deck as a trio, therefore it is a trio.  Regardless of how it functions, it's defined that way, and I'd prefer not giving people the false idea that a deck consisting of 24 :fire cards and 6 Sparks is a mono deck just because it functions that way.  Especially considering that's more decks for us to relocate in the future.

Last thing I wanted was for that discussion to resurface.  Perhaps something we can agree on:  It's not a mono.

I know that, and that wasn't my point. I thought you were critiquing his suggestion for a deck, saying it would still be a trio and therefore not as effective (hence why I said 'it would function as a duo), not repeating the forum definition.

I definitely don't need a lecture on how the forum defines a deck.
