i just ran a deck that decked him out, so i got teh em, but it did use 6 ups(sogs) and 5 rares(eternity)
It was simple, just 5 reflective shields, 6 sogs, 5 eternities(in case he blows them) 2 photons(explained soon) and enough time pillars to round it out to 30. mark of light
Strategy is not exactly what you might think, just play cards till you run out, and then RT your photon ftw. You want to start RTing your photon as soon as you have all your SOGs out, so you can take turns to RT his flying EE's, and in case he blows up an eternity and you have to play another
