Also lobo and lightnings are severely handicapped, you can only have 6 lightnings and a lobo is limited to 1 effect per turn.

Still don't get it yet? Mono-Aether can't beat Fractal spam decks. This means that you've encountered a weakness in your deck. AoE creature control can decimate the Hope-RoL deck instantly. Don't expect your deck to be able to counter all deck types.

I realize that, i just feel that a new Aether card that weakens aether mono itself is quite ironic. as for the lightning and lob, I was replying to G1itch.The card itself pretty much weakens any mono deck not packing creature control , not just with Hope combos but with Pests,etc. While I realize that Fractal brings new tactics and strategies to the table, it is pretty much the most controversial card, with Icybraker himself saying that he partly regrets supporting that Fractal be implemented. The main problem is that I find it unusable in mono without Recluse rushes, while  rainbow, dual, and trio decks can spend the small amount of aether quanta they get to gain a massive advantage. Take Life, it already uses cheap creatures and adrenaline for rushes, now add some aether pillars and fractal. They literally could have 20 5/5 creatures mauling you in a few turns and that's the overkill approach.

your name is pretty fitting.

Also like Gl1tch said, cards can be broken, combos cannot.

Im surprised you came crying tot he forums because of one lose.

First off, yes I'm a newbie here and to Elements. And the combo is an extension of Fractal, which I think needs a rework. As stated by someone else, I've gone up against Fractal + Pests and no doubt more combos will follow. I do realize that synergy is a powerful element in this game, however the situation is not 1+1=3, its 1+1=20. Also lobo and lightnings are severely handicapped, you can only have 6 lightnings and a lobo is limited to 1 effect per turn.

Today while T50 farming, I ran into quite an interesting deck....
This guy had Rays of Light, No big deal I thought, however, then he pulled Fractile and Hope on me, he ended up with around 23 defense which was untouchable for my mono Aether! 
Notes:
He Fractiled the ray of light then abused(?) their free summon cost to pretty much play 6-8 a turn.
I run with Mono Aether, so the best I have is the 10/6 Elite Phase Dragon.(became obsolete fast)
Even if I had permanent control, it wouldn't work because of Hope's automatic Immateriality.

So I'm thinking this is pretty broken/OP ... You guys?
