Strategy:

Get a Devourer out ASAP, Adrenaline/Mitosis it, and spam until you lock the board.  Horned Frogs are for CC baiting, save your Steals for pesky shields.  When you've denied the AI all quanta, place an Adrenaline on an HF.

Profit.

Weak Against:

Sanctuary, sometimes Pharoah (depends on draw - getting hit with Neurotoxin early sucks), sometimes FfQ if the AI gets out too many flies too quickly.

Lots of fun so far!  When it wins, it's often an EM, due to Empathic Bonds and Vampiric Dagger/Jade Staff.

Thoughts, comments, or advice would be appreciated!

Cange the staff for a dusk shield and u r done. It looks good.

Change the staff for a dusk shield and you are done.  It looks good.

Thanks, I'll try that.  I was using Thorn Carapace at first, but it wrecked the Quantum curve.  Dusk Mantle makes more sense to use, since I'm rolling in Darkness Quanta once the combo starts working.

A lot of time with these types of decks devtal and devtosis, the win condition is a larger darkness creature. So you mitosis a black dragon after lock down to win. So -3 frogs -staff, 2 mitosis and 2 black dragons.

Main problems with your deck: It'll take at least two turns to get out the first devourer. You might want to use darkness pendulums instead, so you can get out devourers faster. Mitosis devourer is generally pretty slow, since you need a devourer, and mitosis for it to start splitting. Thirdly, your deck seems to lack offense. Perhaps add some dragons for more damage. Also, take out the staff. The vampire stiletto is way better.

This.
Also nightfall+minor vampire+adrenaline might work too, as mitosis vampire with nightfall is quite brutal.

So, you'd suggest switching marks to Life, then?

Thanks for the tips, guys!
