problem for pvp is, you dont have real answers against shields(fire and aether often used) or land destruction(graboids), and you are not fast enough to outrush opponent. also pests prevent you from devouring, all in all i think you need to splash a 3rd element
That will probablymake it inconsistant.
I decided to "drop" back in

Well every deck has a counter, reverse time can cut down graboid rusher
While knowing they have quicksand, dont play every tower at once

Against shield is hard, but 3 pharoah out = 3/3 turn 1 scrab, then 3/6, 3/9 firewall wont hurt it at least
Not to mention you can keep eating

Besides, this more for fun then for deadly kills

i dont think its possible to cut down graboid rush with reverse times, when it has reverse times too and quicksands

and how to get scarabs FAST out (and attacking) with a firebuckler against you? you need 2+ pharaos out, it couldnt be very fast.

btw, title is "pvp pharao deck", never wanted to offend someone, just wanted to help

Most shrieker rush decks do NOT have reverse tiems and quicksands.  Some do but the standard is nothing but attack. 

Reversing a shrieker stops their draw, and sticks them with an 8 cost msonter in their hand, which can get annoying.

at pvp i think most of them have, ai3/t50 shriekers dont have that often, but maybe im wrong. just for me, i would never play a shrieker rush without reverse times.

but, if they dont have, you still have problems with burrowed shriekers out (you have 6 reverse times against 6 graboids+6shriekers then) and no life giving and your slow building attack-machine. but - as said before - very bad matchup running into shriekers
