 ??? are mitosis.

I've tested this deck against the AI5 and frankly I like it. TTW is about 10, although it can vary as bad draws come easily. You might be wondering:
"18 Pillars/Pendulums! That's outragous!"

I thought the same until I tried it. You need that extra quanta in the beginning to play the dragons. Typically I wouldn't be surprised if I could play it on my 3rd turn. I used Feral bonds in place of the SoGs before, but they were just too slow. Also in the event of a terrible draw, Feral Bonds are useless without creatures, while SoG will heal regardless. Also there are 6 Jade Dragons because not only do you need one early as they are your only source of damage, but also 1 will probably die during the kill, as I always put 1 unmitosed first and if they survive after that turn, then I play mitosis.

very good idea. very weak to reverse time and procrastination. obviously the ???s are mitosis.

Updated with stats, the deck is very weak to the following: lobomizers, gravity shields (autoquit), dimensional shields, and the ones killybob mentioned
