tbh, with average hands from both of us, he would still win. I said rng because i needed to be a bit luckier, especially with the skull shield, and he replaced with another shield every single time i deflaged. Never got to a point where sudden deflag-fractal-kill could be possible, his stoneskins didn't allow that. I did expect his deck, only without 6 of everything. I, indeed, thought between fractix and a 40ish card deck. But "what if he brings poisons ?" made me choose fractix.
Too be fair I play tested it quite a bit against fractix, and made sure we had 6 EQs and extra shields (5) when I tested taking out fire quantum really hurt esp with plagues for bringing them back, but really with a large deck you can always get bad draws so not like its guarentee'd
