Won pretty handily, he didn't have much quanta and seemed to be a mirror of my deck except playing
just to get 5/1 Lava Golems for 5
. That plan didn't work out too well.

Almost 100% same as above, except I took out the Eternities having seen a Deflag and expecting more.

Basically I knew that he'd either replay his previous deck and probably lose, or change it up, in which case Eternity was probably good. My plan B was to make minor changes to plan A anyway, so I had nothing else to do. It turns out he was pretty much a mirror (Though he didn't have the 1 Dragon I don't think, not that it matters. It just lets you beat 6x Lightning decks or similar) and he drew more quanta, which meant I ran out of stuff to play first and he easily took the game.

Typically whoever has more quanta in this mirror wins, so I went back up to 16. Played fewer Eternities because you generally can't take time off to use it unless you're already winning handily. As it happened we both had Eternities active by turn 3, however, he had 6+ quanta coming in every turn and multiple RTs, while I could never play creatures effectively thanks to getting low quanta.

I went for the classic play-18-pillars trick, and it failed, I still didn't get 4 sources out turn 1 and while we were even on quanta for a turn he began to topdeck it, while having Ghosts and RTs in hand, compared to my 4x GotP.
