ahh, thanks, that finally explains things somewhat.

except of course, that unupgraded does same thing, except that there is much less chance to get anything so big that oty can't eat it right away.
and originally my idea was to use unupgraded elf instead of demon or mind flayer (not instead of upgraded elf) -, which both are very situational, while elf is more general, but scaredgirl likes to use ulitharid everywhere, searched for logical reasoning (not "play 2 weeks more" , but that's scaredgirl :P)

Ulitharid everywhere? Hevent seen then in many FG decks.
Ulith isnt a good card for FG: quite useful in the beginning, will became more and more useless in advanced match: an otyugh will do truly better, and will be needed even if you have an ulith on field: lobotomizing dragons isnt so useful :D
I personally like Ulitharid. He's an interesting character that can really turn the game around in some situations. And most importantly, I like to have many different kinds of characters in my False Gods deck because otherwise grinding gets boring really fast. Arctic Squid is also a good choice but most players don't have it.

And cdgx.. one thing you always have to take into consideration is quantum usage balance. You can't just keep taking characters at random. I personally would never take more than one elf/druid because he uses LIFE QUANTUM that is already in heavy use by FFQ's and Feral Bonds.

Thoughts on using Pharaohs instead of Scarabs? Curious if it would work,even tho pharaohs cost a lot of  :time

This deck was made way before Pharaohs came out.

That's the main problem. This deck already relies a lot on :time with Hourglasses, Dials, and Scarabs; even one Pharaoh would overstress the :time element.

So is anyone still trying to use this deck?  I was really excited when I saw this but realized the OP claims were still during the good days of the sun dials :).  I'm still excited to try this but what should I be expecting?

What if you took out, say a quantum pillar or 3 and threw in 3 time pillars? might help

You would only have about a 7.5% chance to draw the pillars (btw i'm assuming we mean towers) in your opening hand and less than 10% chance to draw it in your first 4 turns or so. 

Meaning how useful would it really be if you didn't get at least 1 tower out in your first 4 turns?  You would probably need to remove more than just 1 and by then it wouldn't be worth it.

I made this deck about 8 months ago. Cards have changed and new ones have been added since. I don't recommend anyone to use this deck without making some drastic changes.
