Frogtal

[Kurohami]

I believe I came up with this deck first, but I am not very certain since I saw a top50 using it recently, but then I used it in PVP many times so it might have been spread this way. I've been thinking I'll save this deck for my master of life trial, but since a Top50 is already using it, I might as well post it here. It's really fun and can be devastating when used correctly. Here's the deck, I'm open to suggestions, so don't hesitate.

Strategy:
Try to always keep a giant frog in hand. Once you have 8 aether and a fractal, empty your hand as much as possible and fractal a giant frog, play the frogs. If the enemy is heavy on mass creature control, then save the frogs and play dragons for extra endurance. TU the dragons for tons of damage.

I've seen this in the top 50 as well.  Looks like a solid deck you've got there.  I might drop the TU and a carapace to try and hit 30 cards, but that's just personal preference.

[Kurohami]

TU and dragons is there so if I the enemy is very heavy on creature control(i.e rain of fire, plague, fire shield, carapace), I can still TU the dragons to pound them to death, if I drop TUs I might as well drop the dragons as well, but that's just my opinion.

Maybe add in another Fractal and take out a TU.

[Kurohami]

Yeah, that would also work, the problem is you don't want to have too many fractals stuck in your hand, they take up space and you can't really play that many since frogs are not free and they don't pay for themselves like pests and ROLs. This deck is what I'm using, you can come up with all the variations you want. I take two carapaces so I can get one early, they are the only creature controls in the deck, but then you can take only 1 or none at all.

The reason I would take in another fractal is because of speed. Having only 3 of them in a 30+ deck won't give you a high chance of drawing one early. Having them clutter up in your hand IS pretty annoying, but since this deck is based off fractal, you should take more. Also, the TU's aren't needed, since Fractal is similar to TU.

[Kurohami]

TUs are effective when used on dragons or a good creature from your opponent. And drawing one early isn't as vital as you might think since it would take a few turns to get enough aether to use it and enough life to empty hand and play the frogs that are fractaled. I find this number of fractals to work quite fine, you can usually get one when you had the quanta for it, but as I said you can do it your way, it would work just fine.

For the people who love slim and highly specialized decks, I made this variation that focuses exclusively on frogtal.

Try to always leave 1 frog in your hand, play the at your pleasure. After getting 8 aether and a fractal, empty your hand as much as possible play giant frog and fractal, play the frogs. With a few bonds and tons of frogs, you can mostly out heal your opponents damage. As soon as the spine carapace hit, their creatures won't live for long.

Here's a fight with some guy on PVP
In the end he realized he's far from beating through my healing, so he left.
