Hourglasses are too costly unupped.

I did play around with CCYB a while ago - at the risk of stating the obvious - it under-utilises (i.e. doesn't) its light, dark and death quanta. So it seems to me the best place to start alterations would be in these areas - maybe a guardian angel to counter opposition CC or swap a SoG for a sanctuary or (I know it defeats the whole object of CCYB but . . . ) perhaps a Bloodsucker\Parasite (CCYnotBalittle perhaps ? ).Guardian Angel is worthless because it will come out way too late and you quint nearly everything anyway.
My bad, forgot about shields... posted that late at night, wasn't thinking right haha...Dimensional shields?You can change 2 Burning towers with 2 explosions,that's always help.You need all those towers to get damage out fast enough... what would you explode anyway?
BTW,good deck.
6 Dimensional Shields seems like too many; that'll be enough to chain you through an entire game, but you can't pay for them. Also, -1 Mind Flayer6 is worth 18 turns not counting PC. You need that many to get 1 early and to also be able to play another if one is stolen/destroyed. You also need them to draw steals from Jezebel.
I prefer Golems over Steamies due to starting attack, lower upkeep and the quanta distribution. The downside is having 1 HP against Fire Buckler, but usually you get a Pulvy to deal with that. Plus, you have more damage sources. Flayer is an amazing card if you don't have Lobo in your deck: it's almost autowin against several FG's and cripple many other ones. Other than that, this is just about as far as an unupped FFQ+Hope FG deck can go, and it's mostly thanks to Dims.Golems are a pretty good choice I just find that with the limited amount of cards in the deck Steam Machine does better because it grows more before you (hopefully don't) Deck out.
Once you start upping it, it pretty much turns into Skittles (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,12134.0.html), which is a solid deck, especially for EM'ing FG's.
