Lifestream's Rainbow

[Lifestream]

This is my raiinbow deck right now, i've been trying to kill False Gods with it and I've had an okay time with it. I know it isn't fully upgraded right now, I'm working on it. The only ones i've been able to consistently kill are Osiris, Eldinis, and Neptune.



Feedback and suggestions please

Looks like a spin on SG's deck.  Is the mark time?  And could you post the deck code?

Overall I think you'd benefit from slimming down some.  It'll not only help you find cards you need but it'll also increase the percentage of your deck that's upped.  If you played with only the upped half of your deck I think it'd be an upgrade.

Offhand I'd be working hard to up those novas and the oty.  I find the sundials way less useful since the nerf, so I'd drop them all.  I'd definitely take out stoneskin which has no place in a rainbow deck like this, consider replacing the pharoah with a fire queen cuz I guess you're short on time quanta, and prolly try to add either a pulvy or a butterfly for perm control.  But overall taking out the dials and slimming to ~40 cards is a good idea, especially given your upped card situation.

I'd say if you want to keep that diversity, then just add 2 more Hourglasses. Perhaps take out 1/2 Parallel Universe and replace them with Hourglasses too if you still have trouble.

I agree with Mr 60614 that you should take out the Pharoah and replace with a Queen if you go for my suggestion, you'll definitely be low on Time Quanta otherwise. I'd also take out 1 sundial and add in an Enchant Artifact so that your Eternity is safe.

I'll disagree however and say you should keep in the Stone Skin. It might be quite nice late game as you've not much else to spend Earth Quanta on. If you do want to get rid of it, then put in a Lava Golem so you can use the Earth Quanta on something useful.

You might want to find something to use your Water Quanta on - if you have a Squid, then use that if you find another card you don't use much (perhaps one of the shards?).

There's an upped lava golem in there, but even w/o one keeping stone skin is terrible.

I agree that the SoD probably doesn't belong in the deck, but I just kind of disagree with this mentality as a whole.  Finding excess quantum and mashing cards in the deck is a mistake.  It's better to think about what you hope to accomplish with the deck, find cards that help you accomplish your goals, make sure you are able to find those cards, balance quantum and right-size the deck based on your cards drawn per turn.

Ahh, so there is. Then yeah, get rid of one of them - preferably the Stone Skin.

Since I don't know what the aim of the deck is, I'd have to presume that it's a "catch any eventuality rainbow deck", which is what it looks like from the cards in there already. Besides, a Squid always helps on the creature control, especially if your Otyugh hasn't had a chance to buff up enough yet to get those higher HP creatures/mutants.
