I'm winning quite some special spins in silver arena; my tactic is pretty easy:
- wait for quanta to be >7 and use the nymph's tear on my water pillar
- use the nymph queen to make green nymph
- green nymph become OP casting on themselves adrenaline
- profit!

Usually at 3th round i already have my queen out ready to start the army!
The fire mark is for deflagration that saved me a ton of times... especially being deflagration ready when my queen is usually out is great!
Usually when i get a aether enemy that spam the shield i take some damage till i have a big green army and then destroy the shield and obliterate the enemy in 2 round.

When i lose is for two main reason:
Plain bad luck... well it's a card game!
My queen nymph get freezed, destroyed, stoned, timed back...etc. either too soon or in a cycle where i can't do anything but wait to die.. Many times i wait a bit to have my nymph queen cast a companion when i fear any of the above!

Quakes are a pain too but since i have a ton of pillars i still can manage to win... also quanta draining enemy are annoying but nothing you can't win.

I'm waitin for any suggestion and idea to make this deck better!

and I hope that my english was readable enough!!

By casting adrenalin on nymph queen, it only takes her one turn to get out of freeze, and two turns to get out of congeal or basilisk blood.-->So they shouldn't be that much of a problem (as long as your opponent hasn't a earth nymph or arcitc squid...)

For the deck, I would replace emerald shield for ice shield, because it helps more in most cases. Also, I would probably switch 2 pillars for more nymph tears to draw them as fast as possible.

And the empathic bond isn't that useful (in my oppinion) and I would switch it for another deflagration.

thanks for suggestion!
well the problem is when they freeze or whatever my queen nymph when it's just out (between 3 and 4 round usually) ... that's when it really get dangerous! otherwise it's over in 6 round!

the empathic bond actually sucks your right... i just used as a replacement for a double staff (i just have one)... but it's a good idea to drop it for a deflagration!

i'm really dubbious about the shield... i like ice shield more but i'm usually short on water supply so wasting more water for a expensive shield seems a bad choice, but i'll give a try!

[dawn to dusk]

For tactics, I usually get 2 nymph queens out and then be able to produce nymph after nymph. I also sometimes put in a couple dry spells for some burst quanta.

[surfhero]

hummm i actually never though about using dry spell... but i can see it working... i'm putting a couple in thanks for the suggestion!

Unupped this loses a lot versus a lot of different things in silver. Any additions to remove these losses often suffer to quanta restrictions. For some examples of counter decks I saw in arena with my alt when I tried testing this as a starter deck:

Arena deck focusing on Freeze, you never get a chance to adrenaline. (SpeedPoison w/ Freeze. Squids.)
RoL/Hope, you do 0 damage No Fire Storm to save you from this.
Mono Aether Fractal Psion w/ Dims. It can often just be faster than you with upgrades like double mark.
Air Rush. Nuf' Said.
Devtal. Quanta is at Dev's mercy.
I got 20 losses in a row against these. Not 1 win.

Note that I tried different variations, including ones mentioned here as well as my own. None proved to really help.
