In an era where oppression and great army wins the war, a defeated leader comes to term that defense is the key to win. A product of his own tyranny, he armed himself with a gigantic weapon that will break through any shield, a special shield that will keep him safe from big attackers, and most importantly a mechanical device to win the war. Continuing his reign of terror, he calls upon a horde of massive defenders who has no fear to make their last stand. Assisted by rows of his new cruel devices; sacrificing his own defenders to cause massive damage focused on the enemy's leader.

"It matters not whether you have an untouchable army, a plethora of foul magic arts or an indestructible shield.
For I have the best defense; and best defense makes the best offense!"

Trying to put a mechanical-only theme where big machines and dictatorship comes in mind. Though Fractal is a spell, but I rather to look at it as a siren to summon the army horde. Basic strategy is Armagio as defense and Trebuchet to deal damage. Fractal Armagio for chain defense and unlimited supply for Trebuchet. Dragons and Titan as an added damage. Its lack of PC and CC is a good balance. Counter deck needs to rely on PC, constant healing or both. Mutation and dune deck with healing should also work. The game with this FG should be fast - either you'll win or lose fast.

I think 'Army of Fate' would somehow fit, since it's an invading army with trebuchets and backup ;)

I like the concept. Should work like a charm, and even better, since CCYB cannot rely on their Antimatters, because the AI will just launch the traitor. I'd add a Gravity Shield or two, though.

I just don't get why you don't want the Firemasters to grow?

For some reason, Army of Fate seems too Light-ish. Thanks anyway. I decided to stick with Dark Aegis since it's good in defense = Aegis, and Dark because he sacrifice his own creature. :)

About the Graviton, I don't want it to be similar to the FG Graviton itself. And because it's cheap, I'm thinking an unblockable 6X damage on a early game is balanced enough. However, with that said I'm afraid that the AI will prioritize to fractal this over Armagio in mid game. So, I removed the graviton and added Titan, Dragon and shield instead.
