Help with Fractal Fireflies https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=18319.msg233190#msg233190

Here's my recently developed Fractal Fireflies
Code: [Select]
5li 5li 5lk 5lk 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5ok 5ok 5ok 5ok 5ok 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 622 622 622 63a 63a 63a 63a 63a 63a

The deck's opponents are half-bloods and Top 50. The weak points of the deck are it's early game where it begins off with an air/aether quantum imbalance resulting in a slow kick off.  I want help with the the pillar/quantum/ pendulum distribution, I think the deck can go further with dimensional shield and some light beaters as long as there is a decent flow in the quantum sufficiency. I've tried air pendulum and an aether mark instead but I've realized that air quantum are in much higher demand so I reversed it with an air mark and aether pendulums, only to realize that there is a much slower start.  Ohh! BTW lol reason why I have issues with slow beginning is cause this is more or less intended to be a rush deck, if I'm not out of my mind.

Well the concept is there, just everywhere tho. I've came up with using pends alone since you get fractal while generating loads of air without auto-gain messing up your draw with 3 different kinds of pillars/pends. I went and tweaked it a bit, this is what i came up with. You need 3 hopes to make sure to get one early. This is basically a firefly version of rol/hope ( a popular FG grinder). Also, people use FFQ instead of fractal since it is slower, but just as effective. A 3 pillar split is just really hard to get going with the auto-gain in this game.

Whenever you feel alone and nobody is there, you can't feel more alive.

Dieing is easy, living is hard.

Lols yea. FFQ.  For me, the Firefly idea strung from a dissatisfaction of the FFQ, that 3-5 turn latency is too much for me. The firefly fractal is a simplified shortcut of the FFQ variation cause most of everything that should be present in FFQ is here. The point of acceleration for FFQ is where the fireflies spawn and obviously when they swarm, a lot of options open up. Since the fractal card exist, instant options should be possible. But unless this deck can be turned into a rush, its pretty equal if not inferior to FFQ. If operational :D this can replace FFQ completely though.

WAIT HOLY ****, pendulums are unlimited? I always thought they were 6 cause I just came back to elements... and omg
