Hey there.

I would like to know what you think about this deck and how to improve it  :)
Unfortunately it's very slow, weak to creature control and you rarely got built up your strategy in the first few turns.
The idea is to strengthen your condors by using Nightmare on RoL's and kill them with Retrovirus (thinking about using Improved Plague) after the enemy covered his field with them. I know I could use aflatoxin, but Nightmare heals and clocks up the enemy's hand.
Well, here it is:

There are ideas like this (Day Traitors comes to mind), but if you want to stay with your current trio. I would use plague instead (no reason not to, you're not using Fractal/Retro). And it's gonna be slow - no escaping that, you need your opponent to play some cards before you can Nightmare.

Also, why give your opponent free light quanta? You're not using it, so it's better to use unupped Photons.

I was in fact inspired by Day Traitors  ;)
And you're right about the RoL's / Photon! Didn't notice that xD
Hm... and indeed, I also don't think it'll  ever be fast (or at least much faster). So maybe I should improve it's endurance instead?
Gotta think about it... Altough those cards will again slow it down probably.
