Well, it's gotten a bit better now, into a sort of pseudo-deck state.

Basically it takes the idea used in the deck for Jezebel and expands on it. Play a cloak and beat your opponent, so that they (literally) don't know what hits them. Basically avoid mutating or hatching until you drop a cloak if you can. That last little bit is more for fun than for practicality. Offers a little more variety without the quanta consumption that Jezebels deck has.

decided to give it a try and this was the result:

6rq 6rq 6rq 6s1 6s1 6s1 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u4 6u4 6u4 6u6 6u6 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 7q1 7q1 7q1 7ti 7ti 7ti 7ti 8pt

also bases itself on mutating creatures to work, 3 deja vus serve up to 6 mutation fooder, plus some mutation card for the singularities. added some SoR to use it on a druid or a mutant with a cool hability and added some Sose for increased randomness, all that combined with those cloaks so the oponnent never really knows what to expect

My biggest complaint is the reliance on SNs that this deck has. If you don't draw them, you're kind of screwed, as you can only generate (very slowly) entropy and dark quanta. I tried throwing in some precogs to improve what I drew, but they did very little if anything. Maybe the pendulums are the issue, as there is no back up to not drawing the SNs. Otherwise, it's much better than what I originally had.

you can change the pends to entropy towers so Snovas and your mark will power the cloaks although that makes you more dependent on Snovas

[Dandy]

Hmm...do you think quantum pillars would be useful in addition to the pends, or is that type of quanta generation too unreliable?

like what, making a 35 card deck with 5 QT? it can work, but it will slower it by a bit

[Dandy]

No I should be more clear. No maybe take out 2 pends for 2 QTs.

no, it wouldnt work. the deck needs quite a bit of  to work, hence what i said about changing the pends to  towers and let all the other quanta be generated from Snovas

[Dandy]

Well, I'm gonna have to disagree with it not working, since the QTs haven't affected my entropy quanta yet, but I will say that it doesn't do anything to benefit; the quanta gain from the QTs is negligible at best.

Sevs may be right, those SoB could be replaced by precogs imo

Or 2 golden nymphs and 2 more SoR? Then SoR can be a better SoB when nymph's present.

that would be cool :O  great draw power and 2 more heavy critters would be indeed great!

AFTER TESTING: well, forget the deck. More pillars are needed to fund it. Better off using pure pharaohs.
