My Rainbow Deck. Needs help with speed. https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=42036.msg522208#msg522208

Hey everyone. So Im new to this site and game. Here is the deck Ive been using so far. The only problem is, I get beaten by fast Immo rushes. Is the deck ok as-is or does it need some improvement?

P.S. The reason only some cards are upped is because Im still new. I don't have a great deal of electrum or rares yet. Thanks for any help any of you can provide.

i would take out the lycanthropes (the shriekers do enough damage) and maybe the one blessing could be missed, arsenic also seems a bit out of place since this isn't a posiondeck

Unupped speedbow?
Alright, there's balance between damage and control/protection that you'll have to make. The less control and protection you have, the faster your deck will be. However, running pure speed risks being hard countered by a single card many times.
For now, I'd remove the enchant artifact. If you want to keep the earth usage roughly higher than just the graboids, then replace it with an iridium warden. It synergizes with blessing and momentumn quite nicely. The lycanthropes and arsenic are perfectly fine- keep them, as they're valuable in adding damage, which adds speed. I recommend replacing one of your two defensive water cards for something that deals more damage.

simply take out 2 or 3 Quantum pillars, you are over-producing quanta by a bit

also, consider trading that PA over something else, like lightning for CC, and that SoF for a steal (on a deck like this, SoF is less useful than insta-PC from a quanta source you are not even using. besides, with momentum and that deflag, shields wont be a problem)

Tried out a couple of the suggestions here :) Found that the lycans are pretty vital as they come out when the graboids cant. Tried to slim the deck down so that I can draw the cards I need to do damage sooner. Iridium Warden is awesome by the way :D

Has less trouble vs Immo rushes now. The only thing that worries it is Rain of Fire and super heavy CC. But most times I can damage them to quickly for that to be a problem.

Anyways;
If mass CC worries you, I'd personally put in a quint or something of the like. I don't have many changes on the deck as of now though, except maybe change the SoSer's for something else... although I don't know what. A heal could be nice, I guess - Just 20 HP can help you out.

That's obvious too, but IMO he lacks earth quanta ( I was originally going to suggest 2 more earth pillars) and even then you can only burrow so many shriekers.

Why don't you try this?

If you want speed, add precognitions maybe 3.
And the next step will be upped towers, for immediate quanta boost.

This revision of your deck is remarkably similar to the PVP Graboid Rainbow, a deck which allows for a rush with lots of attack power, along with plenty of CC and PC. To get to it, simply remove a Quantum Pillar, the Iridium Warden, the Mind Flayer, the Blessing, and the two Shards of Serendipity. Then, add an Arsenic, two Forest Spirits, a Freeze, a Fog Shield, and a Lightning. Here is a link: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,7528.0.html
Note that if you don't have two Arsenics, then you should replace the two Arsenics in the original deck for a Deathstalker and another Momentum in your deck.
