Problems :

1. Unable to draw SN to play cards = death

2. Even has SN in hands, don't have  :entropy to use it in early game = discard cards

3. Many different cards = Very unstable draw

4. I want to add RT but don't know how to do so. Cannot remove Rage Portion because the Maxwells' Demons / Mind Flayer need to be killed

5. Unable to draw pulvy when facing dim. shield chain = death

6. Instant loss against Bonewall

-sundials. I don't see any point for them in an offensive based deck. Have you considered a PSNbow with a :time mark?

The sundials are to speed things up a bit. AS I mentioned, sometimes I can't get SN to power the cards, sundials can help a bit

Besides, at early game, I can't use my SN due to lack of :entropy  and most of time I have to use or discard something. Then sundial is the best choice to be used before I gain momentum.

I haven't considered building a deck similar to PSNbow because I don't have the  :entropy pendulums to power the SN. With an upped pendulum, you only need one to power a second turn SN but this cannot happen in unupped environment.

Not necessarily. Using unupped can still get you success to a degree, and you can even consider amethyst pillars. Perhaps a reason you have to discard is that you only have5 playable cards in the first few turns. Precogs would be better or upped sundials (but you don't have those).

So you mean using entropy pillars + time mark ?

Then this will be completely different deck, but this is a good suggestion. I will try what this will turn out to be.

You might need to drop a ghost or two then, since they are expensive.

I just tried this deck and it works good. I almost got to the rare spin but eventually lost to a warden spam

Is there any ways to make it more suitable for Bronze ? (e.g. did I pick the right choice of cards ?)

For bronze, the most important aspects are rushing and shield bypassing.
Your deck doesn't have enough PC or momentum.

Also, unupped pulvy is bad. Really.
PVE shouldn't be all about copying a deck code and converting time into electrum, score, and potentially rares.
If the only way to derive fun from a game is its PVP content, then non-hardcore players a.k.a. the mass are alienated from the hardcore community.

Replace the pulvies with momentum, and add one more deflagration ?

What about the choice of CC ?



Edit : Just tested this deck, 6 consecutive wins with rare spin :)
