The idea is simple. Play Chargers, protect them with Quintessence while Shards and Phase Shields keep you alive.Electrocuters are in against Momentum or anything else that potentially bypasses your Shield. Its not the fastest deck around, but its EM and winrate make it a very good choice for AI5 grinding.

Pro:
Opponents Shields and Creature Control are turned into dead cards.
Most of the time you can completly ignore the opponent.
Very high winrate

Con:
Vulnurable to anything that destroys your Towers.
Upgrades are needed.

Edit:
Here is a FG version. I can´t really reccoment this since the winrate/time ratio isn´t as good as other designated FG kilelrs.

What is the win ratio vs the FGs??

[Sal]

I haven´t actually tried this against FGs but i guess you can beat the ones without permanent control. I would add another Phase Shield and adjust the Quantum base for that purpose.

I´m testing this now,but i guess the fg-winratio would be like 30% and your better off with a deck designed for that task.

edit:



slightly modified version. for fgs i would suggest something like this:

Keep in mind that there are better decks against FGs out there. Try CCYB , Skittles or RoL/Hope for that task.

[MartyrX]

Right on, lemme know how the rest go.

relative easy win

loss against Dark Matter (Gravity Nymph on turn3 just killed me)

Pretty much what i thought. You win against the "easy" gods that can´t destroy your Phase Shield and loose to the ones that can actually destroy it. Don´t think i have to test more.

[kobisjeruk]

you could probably add 1 fractal for an all out attack (for the antiFG version) but w/o any PCs, you're gonna have a hard time against feral bond, hourglass abuser

[Sal]

Yeah i had one Fractal in the first version but usually ended up with not enough Quanta to use it efficiently (Tower rate is slightly too low).
You are right with the Bonds.The Quantum base is already pretty shaky and i don´t think it could afford another splash without replacing a lot of Towers with Pendulums.

Might be worth a shot to add Earth Pendulums and 2 Pulvies. Something like this:

Code: [Select]

But all those Pendulums could screw you over.
