i started off with a similar deck to SG almost unupped timebow (my own creation before i found out about the forum) then went on to testing puppychow's 34-card entbow
yaladilae's buttefly angel(-bow?) intrigued me so i tested that and fell in love with it and made it my #1 anti-FG grinder until i saw amilir's CCYB
then i tried jmdt's silver buckler, kuross's hopebow, can haz moar drawz (CHMD) etc...basically every rainbow-based anti-FG there is and i can say for certain modified CCYB is by far the best and most fun to use (not to discredit CB! but he was one of many of us who brainstorm together on how to improve the deck)
butterfly angel is close second due to its consistency and simplicity (dont knock it before you try it, and if you havent, you should)
i actually prefer timebow which is why right now i'm testing CHMD with slight tweaks but if you want the best result, modified CCYB is the one

Interesting. Why do you think CCYB's deck needs aflatoxin? (and maybe jade shield)

I could go with a shield, then filling the screen with malignent cells...But with only 1 death in the field does it do anything? The deck has nothing else that kills. That means the creatures drawn before the screen fills all stay and do their damage...

Ideally, those are creatures you antimatter. Rarely does enough damage slip through once you're set up with Afla.

i could spampost tons of screenshot showing just how awesome aflatoxin is in CCYB
the main thing is, aflatoxin - the card is powerful on its own
it does more than just kill a creature
the only reason you dont see it much more in a typical rainbow setup is because of one card in particular, bonewall

jade shield is added as the 3rd shield because it works well with aflatoxin
but jade shield itself is also great against decay, octane and dream catcher (not that great against osiris though)
increasing the win % against them tremendously due to built-in PA and reflect damage ability

just to prove a point :-

Ah thanks, I guess I'll have to try some more games. I was assuming you'd draw the afla quite late and that it would take quite some time to fill the screen... Too late maybe to prevent much damage. I guess that would be bad luck.

Funny stuff.. I drew the afla early and was tanking an FG. (decay?) He had no damage out. EM and upgraded devourer and upgraded fractal.

Good design guys. :P

Though I also like the 2 golems/FFq one.

The only thing that makes the almost un-upped rainbow good is the fact it has so few upgrades, of course the upped ones are better :-\

I think Can Haz Moar Drawz is the best, but that might be because I just LOVE timebows :) Also, I don't have enough money to upgrade a rainbow fully yet.
