I think the deck speaks for itself kindof sortof. It's meant to be a stall deck. (obviously.) I'm not very experienced with deckbuilding myself, so any and all advice or help that is given will be greatly appreciated.

perhaps less grav pendulums and more golden hourglasses i thought, like the deck is very heavy it would be great to have more opportunities to draw, no?

Thank you for replying. I hadn't put much thought into adding Golden/quantum Hourglasses, because my initial thought was that it would speed up the decking out but now that you mention it I do see how it could help. I'll, update the deck image accordingly.

Not very many decks even close to 60 cards. You CAN slim it without losing the deckout abilities. Looking at it however, it is pretty balanced.

Yeah, I think, slimming it down, would be a good thing. I personally would think to remove 2 otyugh, 1 basilisk blood, 1 reverse time, both black holes, and 1 Iridium Warden. But then that's hardly even a start. What else do you think I should remove?

Honestly, you can just stall with wardens, otyughs, titanium shield, plate armor, and the eternity.

Heck, you can stall with only wardens and otyughs with the eternity.

TIP: maybe momentum wardens, because when wardens with ATK power actually hurt the creature they are guarding.

Oh. Really? I did not know that. You learn something knew every day. 'Specially if it's about something you know next to nothing about. Although there is but one thing I probably should have mentioned. Which is, that this deck, thematically, is supposed to have little to no offense. Thank you for the information but I just think adding more offense would make this deck less fun to play. :)

But, other than that, do you think this looks at least somewhat better?

Well, the point of the momentumed wardens is to damage creatures for your otyugh to eat up, not for offense.

The variation is better, but it seems as if :time quanta could be overstrained with only pends. change them to pillars for the sake of being able to use it every turn if need be. Also, I don't find Basilisk Bloods necessary for this deck. 5 Otyughs should be enough.

 Okay, I think I get it now. I put the basilisk bloods in for a situation wherein they had something like a dragon or otherwise large creature out and I didn't have anything else to stall it with.

But yeah you're right. Pillars would be better than pendulums.

ah. If anything (because its a stall deck), I would use that on one Otyugh as soon as I can, and then I have something to eat everything.

And that's another use for it. But then that's six turns you could be eating stuff that you're not eating stuff. And also a Basilisk Blood that you could use to stall a dragon that now you can't use to stall a dragon. But then if you use it on the otyugh it could use the dragon as a toothpick... Unless it's a colossal dragon, then they would jsut be wrestling and it would have to eat the colossal dragon in lots of tiny bites. Maybe make it into a three large tacos.... okay now I'm just ranting about nothing.
