Pretty self-explanatory, shoot out the unstable gases, shard of readiness on Queen's, then lay the smack down.

It does alright in PvP, about 50% but I'd like to improve it. Suggestions?

Are the Firefly Queens upgraded?

Legions of :light quanta cry out for redemption, but are suddenly silenced.
Throw in Deflagrations or Rage Potions. Deflagrations are common sense, and Rage Potions synergize well with FFQ, Owl's Eye, and Azure Dragons (and are useful for CC besides). If FFQ is unupped, you'll need pendulums.

Trying to cut out :life from the deck with a Shard of Readiness is a nice concept, but your deck has too few FFQ and too few Shards to get the combo out. If you don't have a lot of stall in your deck, put in four copies of every combo card. If your deck does have lots of stall (this one does), you can get by with three. Never use only two.

It's perfectly OK not to use any :light as including :light cards will make this deck sorta inconsistent.
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.

@mwaetht Unfortunately I have none of these cards upped, for shards I only have 2, and I was only keeping the FFQ's down to the same amount of shards I had available. I figured the flying weapon and OE's could be effective as they are great for CC (except against Aether). I was thinking that once I manage to get more SoR's I would be able to add in a miracle or two (preferably upped) as it would be great to use on low HP. I think I'll have to wait until I have a few upped FFQ's before I add in anything fire related, for now I'll stay a noob.

@Mathematistic I'll give that deck a go but I will have to edit it just a tad since I'm lacking 2 shards, I may just keep the 2 azure dragons in for hard hitters.

This is a pretty good idea, but you understand that with the queens upped, there's actually a really big difference. (You can just drop the mark and power your UGs off of your fireflies).

4 owl's eyes? Isn't that too much? Generally, in a deck, you want to focus on one synergy or combo. Unupped FFQ and gasses don't really synergize nicely.
