So I've been using this to farm bronze league... I've gotten a few rare spins. However, I've gotten some losses and am wondering how to improve this.
Before anyone says anything, yes, I do want to keep the control aspect of this deck without sacrificing any more speed. I don't want this to be one of those decks that gets crushed by an early maxwell's demon or dim shield chain.
Some losses I've had, off the top of my head:
Firefly spam (by 1 hp, literally 1 hp. If only I'd used that shockwave on the AI, not a firefly...)
Nightmare GOTP
Fire spirit/crimson dragon rush, not immo-rush
Also, if any variant/similar deck is being used to farm another Arena league, I'd be grateful if you could point me to it.

I'm not great with this type of deck, but the fractal seems like it uses too much quanta. Maybe replace it with a lightning or recluses?

[Aves]

Heh, yeah, the fractal's kinda just there for the sake of it. Another recluse would probably be more stable, but fractal's huge potential with the frog is so tempting... it's won me a few games where I had to get out that damage fast- I use it either as a last turn damage boost or a sort of PU- like if I see an iridium warden or arctic octopus or even shriekers and phoenixes, as fractal's usually played mid-late game. Lightning could also work, but I don't want to load up on too many spells; my damage potential is low enough as it is to chew through up to 200 hp (also testing this against silver league, my first stat count. 6-1 so far ). , and 4-6 spells in hand isn't fun either.

If you're gonna use shockwaves, add squids.

Maxwells demon ftw.

-1 fractal = +1 Phase Recluse = Quanta will end up being a problem, especially since most battles will be fast. Also 9 cost will be hard to come by.
-2 Unstoppable = +1 Elite Otyugh = Unstoppables are unnecessary with so much PC. If Black Hole would also be a good option
-1 Mitosis = +1 Improved Heal = Mitosis slows things down too much, and once again strains quanta
-2 Shockwaves = +1 Elite Queen = 4 dmg usually wont be enough to kill most things. If you really want to have this kind of CC, then I would suggest Lightning.
-2 Quantum Towers = They will get in the way more than help out.
+1 Maxwell Demon = Reusable CC that will help build your bone wall
Some suggestions for the final card....
Electrum Hourglass
Lightning
Fire Buckler
Precognition


Those are my suggestions.
I only tried to remove the cards I really think are holding you back, instead of giving what I thought would be the optimal cards. That way the deck still has your unique spin to it, while cutting out the things that are holding you back more than helping.
