I tried to follow a basic deck strategy but I think this isn't working very well. I can beat only a few gods so far but I get wiped most of the time. Also, I cannot get very consistency with my cards. Please help if you can.

Code: [Select]
4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 52r 592 5c6 5c6 5f8 5ro 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5up 61t 621 621 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6u6 717 74b 74b 7n3 7q5 7q5 7q5 7q5

you could put in some shards of readiness for your queen or druid. A diamond shield would help if you have the money.

I see that you're using SG's mostly unupped anti-FG farmer...
replace graveyard with a boneyard (cheaper/faster = better), replace dimension shield with a permafrost or gravity shield and consider upgrading rain of fire and bone wall next
i'd consider replacing one of either sundial or hourglass with another quantum tower because time-based rainbow needs tons of quantum generation early whereas you can make do with supernova in an entropy-based rainbow

If you haven't been using the deck much yet, I highly recommend playing 10 or more games against the Half Bloods just to learn the ins and outs of your deck.  You'll need every strategy to be able to beat the FGs.

Also, here are some alternatives to consider depending on your play style:
Upped Aflatoxin- pros: spell-based so you don't need to worry about about it being Deflag'd or Stolen; Cells don't die by Flooding; mutated Cells turn back to Cells when they die; can fill your field faster than with Graveyard.  cons- costs 1 more Death quantum; you have to sacrifice 1 of your own creatures.

Buttefly Effect and Pulverizer- Both are reusable permanent control cards.  One uses 2 Gravity which Oty already uses, the other 3 Entropy which you're using very little of.  BE has to be used on a <3 attack creature which would be Skeletons and Otys in your deck.

Ice Shield- Gives the possibility to freeze creatures including immortal ones like Flying Morning Glories, Phase Dragons, anything Quint'd.  Works great in conjunction with healing.  Plus you're not using any Water quantum.

I used a deck like this for a while, see if you like it.

I would say get another rain of fire and up that one and the one you have now.  Rain of fire is huge in running your bonewall up (which I would also recommend to upgrade as soon as possible.)  They both have 2 quanta savings in their upped versions and are key parts in this deck.

I've found that it's better to use 3 Quintessences (and drop the Dimensional Shield), you want your "fallen druid+firefly queen+elite otyugh" to stay in game permanently.

I'm not a huge fan of rain of fire in this deck (it is situational at best, and if you are eating everything possible with your othughs anyway you don't need it), but thanks to the elite firefly queen you should have a lot of fire quanta, you might want to consider fire bolts etc.

On the other hand if you have a miracle or two, you might want to add them to your deck, with a normal firefly queen.

I second the graveyard-boneyard idea, you need the skeletons to put them back into your deck (with eternity) or to mutate them with your fallen druid, they shouldn't stay out long enough to make a difference.

Fire bolt = Only kills one creature. I guess you'd deal decent damage if its used against the FG but i've found that mutants are usually sufficient for damage

RoF = kills creature spammers like Ferox, FQ, Paradox which would eat through your bone wall in 1-2 turns otherwise, and gives you a huge wall to boot. Also helps to make big creatures smaller so your oty can eat them.

Take out those Blessings and 3-4 Golden Dragons.  You want a deck closer to 30.

This is what I usually use.
