Looks exactly like the Creation of Life. You don't need 12 pillars anyways, rustlers generate 2 for 1 . Plus, you only need one rustler to convert everything so I suggest only 4. This deck needs some testing, it's pretty bad.
No need to stomp his idea down like that, you'll need 5-6 rustlers to ensure early draws and backup rustlers if they get killed. 12 light pillars are fine, you'll need at least 3 in your starting hand to get 6 light quanta on the second turn. You could replace heals with frogs or cockatrices for speed if you prefer that over heals (EM)
Creation of life is based on getting quick quanta using light generating creatures (in this case fireflies) and using adrenaline on them. Creation of life is dangerous to use since it's risky to use, such as rustlers dying, quanta denial, shields etc.
