Deckbuilding:Pros:- Destroys firestall
- Out damages most midrange decks
- effectively immune to any damage based cc
- 4 deflags for strong permanent control
- 1 dry spell and 1 NT tech cards to help deal with phoenix either through killing them, outracing them with nymph queens, or generating a red nymph
- shard of patience tech to win firestall match up even more and to beat out other types of stalls that such as immortal, rol hope, or decks running basilisk blood or freeze
- off meta and hard to predict
Cons:- destroyed by reverse time
- no cc and too slow to stop fast rushes such as crema golems
- somewhat heavy quanta cost can make certain pillar starts an automatic loss
- weak to certain shields such as bonewall or hope
- weak to quanta denial (albeit not a common archetype in fire trials)
- only 8 cards that can cause damage, meaning that the opponent can easily win if they shut down the first couple creatures and draws are only average
Why is this deck so cool?Steam machines are the firestall vaccine.
