:air HYDROGEN BOMBS A-COMIN'! (Unstable Gas Deck) :air

 :air Introduction:
Yes, this deck has probably been posted a trillion the the power of million times before I did, but I feel it's worth bringing up some classical decks. This deck uses Unstable Gases to deplete the opponent's HP, while using Wings to minimize the damage dealt to you as you detonate the Unstable Gases. The cards that this deck is weak against is: Shard of Divinity, Shard of Gratitude, Shard of Sacrifice, Shard of Focus, (Armagio and Gravity Pull?), Earthquake, Heal, and any other card that heals the opponent's HP, redirects the damage of the Unstable Gases to something else (although, I'm pretty sure there's no such card yet), or destroys permanents. That's why there is an Owl's Eye in this deck (if you have three or more Owl's Eyes, I recommend you to replace the Wind Pillars with three Owl's Eyes).

I would suggest replacing one of the Wings and maybe a Pend for two flying weapons for the OEs. More CC, More Defense, AND allows you to soak up any excess air quanta.
Are you tired of those old boring rushes? Well look no further!

I am HORRIBLE with abbreviations. Translation: what does CC mean? And yes, I suppose it makes sense to put two flying weapons in there, as it makes sure all the Owl's Eyes are not wasted, either.

That is so much more fire quanta than you need.  Why do you have all of those fire pendulums if you'll only need 6 fire quanta the entire game?

One word: fun. Besides, if you replace most of the Fire Pendulums with Wind Pillars, your going to have so much more Air quanta than you need. However, if you decide to use this deck, go ahead and replace some of the Fire Pendulums with Wind Pillars.

CC is Creature control. Basically any ability/card used to hinder creatures.

I agree. I'd say make the change with the Flying Weapons then change Pends to Air pillars and mark to fire. With the flying weapons, any excess air quanta would be used by the Owl eyes. And besides, in a Air reliant deck, I'd rather have excess air than excess fire.

- a few pends
- all but one Owl Eye
+ Fire Lances

My suggestion to make use of fire quanta. Fire shield is also a good option

I don't think quanta issues are fun.  You could throw in some more Owl's Eyes and Flying Weapon if you have extra quanta.

I'm sure most veteran players will already know this mirror shield and emerald shield render unstable gas useless by reflecting all the damage back at you so get the flying weapons in so you have an alternate win method with your owl eyes
love makin my decks unusual if able. Chaos and luck are widely regarded as different i beg to differ just refer to :entropy but for those in the know also refer to :time and :death.

You only need mark of fire, this only slows down the deck
If you're weak, then run, but toward your enemy

Wow. Some nice suggestions. I'll go take a look at your advices, test them out, and re-post the new, better deck complete with your suggestions when I can. (At the moment, I have a friend at school who will NOT leave me alone about powerful his deck is. His IGN is LightDragon, and if you're winning in a PvP Duel against him, before you defeat him, I'd appreciate it if you sent him a message saying something like, "HA HA HA HA HA! YOU LOSE! PWNED!". I also all of a sudden have a ton of my friends now playing Elements: The Game and begging me for help on deck ideas; and I hope you don't mind if I post a reply on here that asks for help on improving a deck.  ;D)
