Have you played enough to add a skip guide by chance?

Barely beat a standard Ghostmare (by deckout with AM'd creatures on both sides), lost to a Monodark with steals, siphons and vamps, then lost to a Ghostmare with devourers. Wouldn't mind it if I had any way of predicting when to hit Menu and avoid 12 unproductive minutes in an uphill battle.

I usually quit if 2 or more nymphs get killed, I haven't really tried it after the shard spread tho

Ooh a very interesting & fun deck! (Though the -50% winrate is a little risky for spins)
However, wouldn't putting in max SOR allow you to have less pendulums and use it for more useful cards such as CC?

Well I guess under 50% for plat isn't bad, and main point when I used this deck was not to aim for spins but to EM'ing with not-so-long games.
Taking away pends for more SoR's won't work cause:
1. I need the entropy quanta to launch discord as fast as I can in many occasions
2. the min pend draw for an optimal draw is 4 pends(so I get to use nymph tears on turn 3).

the 6 gravity pends are so I draw at least one of them early in the game to tear it and start draining quanta/healing.
Also I have more entropy pends than gravity ones, cause as I cited above I need to play discord, and 2 I usually use 1/2 SoR on Grav nymphs, since I need to use black hole every turn to keep the opponent locked, the poor purple nymph  ends having to pay to use her skill, of course in some cases like facing rushes for example(lil quanta generation, lots of creatures) to get a purple nymph and SoR it, otherwise it'll be too late/the healing from BH won't be enough.
Thanks for the feedback

Ahh, thanks for the explanation (though my comments weren't very good feedback)  :-X
I guess I'll try this when I can manage to up my pendulums, as it is probably close to impossible to do it unupped.

Very impressed. It's a lot of fun to play. This is one deck that actually LOVES to play sosac decks... They don't have any creature control, you just get a steam engine buffed up to get them to spend all their sosacs, then antimatter it for the duration of sacrifice, then antimatter it right back. This deck is super cool, I've wanted to make a good nymph's tears deck for a while but you beat me to it.

Edit: As a combo based deck, it could probably have some success if you stick some shards of bravery in it somewhere... Not sure if it would be worth it without a fire mark (and changing the mark is out of the question), but I'll toy around with it a bit.

I wouldn't know how to get the quanta to use stuff fast enough to get the shard, maybe on a snova variant, talking about that I just found a snova variant of this deck in plat ;_;
