I love this deck, fast and evil...
I hate it nothing to think on, it s a one-way (stupid) deck. I prefer deck when the success is rather depends on the good decisions of the player instead of the draw.

On the other hand: it is very (maybe too much) effective. A started toplay with it, and my record is 48:4 - each defeats from very similar rush decks. You should develop cards for better anti-rush strategies.
rush/speed strategy relies on cheap damage output and quick win with little or no defense at all
in a game between 2 rushes, it is whos the better beatdown (and topdeck obviously) that will win
anti-rush is NOT the direction this deck should be taking or rather, if you find this deck to be too linear for your taste, you might want to look at other strategies, namely control or stall

This is exactly what I do. :)
I did not want to say to change this deck in a direction of anti-rush, I only was surprised that this stupid (=linear/simple) deck is that effective, no  decks can counter it (maybe directly against anti-rush decks, but hard to imagine a good one).

So develping an anti-rush card is a general idea, this deck is perfect at the moment. If there would be strategies against it, it could give some depth for this concept.

black hole kills this deck as well as any other rainbows especially if they rely on SN's

I'm testing the T50 version of this deck in my KOTH version vs. Mono-Earth shrieker rush, it's doing pretty good so far, but there is this nasty BB/Gravity Shield deck that keeps slowing me down by like 5 turns. Nice deck!

No it is not. Maybe other deck yes, but in case of this deck it is not the quanta is the most important problem, but the creatures. After supernova I drop 2-3 monsters so you can slow me down with blackhole, but you cant stop the rush.

Sorry if it's already posted somewhere in the thread (it's a large one, haven't read it all), but could you provide a link to the BB/Gravity Shield deck?

The Antimatter/PurpleNymph/Maxwell's Demon Entropy mono deck w/ Shards fairs quite well against this one.  The mass antimatter and paradox practically destroy everything played.
