Hey guys its me Whirly, xD umm this is my second deck so i hope some people can make it better.

Deck import code : [Select]
4t5 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58s 591 591 591 591 591 591 592 592 593 593 593 593 593 593 5jm 5jm 5jm 5jm 5jm 5jm 8pm


So this is what I got, The hammer should be replaced with a Tsunami, but i just didn't have time to. The whole point of this deck is to play out shield or Tsunami as fast as possible then enchant them, so no one will destroy it, play out shriekers, you can burrow them if you want, Earthquake their pendulums/pillars, same with Tsunami.

I've tested this on ai 1 2 and 3, and it works fine, although in ai 3 you'll have like 50% chance of winning and vice verca...

Weaknesses:Owl's Eye, shock wave, no quanta generators. Damaging creatures is pretty much the weaknesses.
Good Against:1 or 2 attacking creatures.

Any Ideas on how to make this better?  ???

The pendulums? Graboids are better than shriekers and you can change the mark to time.

I'll assume the hammer is meant to be a trident. If you're trying to run a trident tsunami deck, one trident wouldn't cut it. put in at least three or four. Also, if you have so much water production, you can even pack in blue crawlers for additional damage.

***TRIALS RESPONSE***

As furballdn said earlier, if you are trying to run a trident deck , you are going to need to add some more tridents so the chances of drawing one are much higher.

Also it seems that your quanta source could use some stabilization. and here is where you have 2 choices.

 The first: It would be easier to have a water mark and earth pends.
Pros: much more stable than version two. can use dragons to counter wings and heavy cc
Cons: possibly slower at the setup with damage

Card Explanations
Gnomes: if you get a trident stolen it could have devastating results if you didnt have a pillar/pend/creature split.
Dragons: they are hard to kill and avoid the very hard counter of wings.
Nymph tears: you are going to have excess water leftover mid game because you only have to play the trident once. use the tears on an earth pend to spawn an earth nymph which can essentially hold back 6 creatures at once.

The second: Using novas to speed up the process of playing a trident and using earth's fastest creature, graboid.
Pros: much much much quicker damage and tridents leading to quicker pillar / pend lockdown
Cons: Less stable

Card Explanation:
Flying weapon: makes use of the tridents that you draw later and allows you to better counter the pillar pend splits.
Forest Spirit, lycan, chryasoara, mind flayer: all useful cheap creatures for extra damage and abilities.
Deflag: never go into a match without PC if you have the option to include it even if it is only one deflag, it could be the difference against the common dim shield
