While playing around with Ball Lightnings and Soul Catchers, I realized that Fractalled Ball Lightnings hit hard enough on their own.  So I tried to see if I could make a deck around them.

The deck was usually around 6-8 turns to win against AI3 with a few 5s.  It even managed an 8 TTW crashing through a Bone Wall.  The SoFr can also reduce the number of Fractals needed to get to 100 damage, so you might want to try 4 of each shard.

This is my first time using SoB, and I totally understand the name now.  So, for more cautious types, here is a deck that is a tad slower but a bit safer.

Seven BLs with sky blitz and 4 SoFre guarantee an OTK. It'd suck if someone destroyed your SoFre though :P

yeah, tried to swap a BL for an extra SoFre to balance out the draws and to give a tiny bit PC resistance to the overall strategy. but because i usually get more than 7 BLs, i almost never need 4 SoFre

I was expecting it to be more reliable on the speed, but it more than made up for that in fun.

I made a fractal blight deck a while back.

I REALLY like running chaos powers off mark because it gives you some survivable attackers for that extra push.

I haven't tried chaos lightning with SoFres, would be cool.

Here are a couple of CP/BL decks for you to tweak.

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink

6s6 6s6 6s6 6s6 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 808 808 808 808 808 808 808 808 809 809 809 809 809 809 80b 80b 80b 80b 80b 80b 8pj

I think it might work better with -2 TU, +1 SoFr, +1 Tower.  It is pretty fast when it starts with 3 Towers.

4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 6s6 6s6 6s6 6s6 6s6 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 7jv 7mt 7mt 7mt 7mt 7mt 7mt 7n9 7n9 809 809 809 809 8pj

I think it needs a Deja, but I have no idea what to take out for one.  Rainbows should not be able to play Shards this quickly.  With a good draw, the deck is very fast.  I think this might be the first 4 TTWs I have ever had.
