Mark of Gravity

 X8 Time Factory
 X6 Scarab
 X7 Aether Pillar
 X4 Fractal
 X5 Shard of Gratitude

Strategy: This deck is pretty simple. Spam scarabs with fractal and devour everything. Use SoG to heal. The large amounts of scarabs create great creature control and deal out a good amount of damage. With only one fractal and scarab you can devour most creatures.

Weakness: An imbalance of pillars and/or no fractals/scarabs makes it difficult to get a good amount of scarabs out onto the field. This deck also has no perm control, making it difficult to deal with opposing perms. This can be overcome sometimes though, i.e. massive poisoning being countered with SoG. Furthermore, immortal enemies cause serious problems seeing as how they are immune to devour, the staple of this deck. Lastly, a well timed Flooding/Rain of Fire/Plauge can destroy most scarabs and wipe out all chances of success.

I haven't done extensive testing on this deck, but it seems to do well in most situations, PvP and FGs included. I didn't bother to track the win rate, so I can't tell you how well it really did.

Looks pretty good to me, if you can throw in some eternities and a procrastination instead of 1 x SoG and 1 x aether pillar and also throw in some more time pillars.
