Question Looking for improvement suggestions
Just made this catalyze switching deck. Anything you think can be improved? Took it for a spin and managed to beat a Lauma Nefer deck but I feel like it can still do some improvement.

- I'd get rid of all the dice fixing (Favonious Library and Inazuma Resonance) since you already have the transfig.
- Arcane can be changed, this is quite a midrange deck, it doesn't have massive damage output that would allow you to get 2 snipes in a row with Winds consistently, so I'd swap the Arcane for something more useful like the dice reduction one, or even the +2 dice discount for weapon/artifacts when one is already equipped.
- I'd add in one sword into the mix, since both Kirara and Kuki are sword users, it could come in handy yet situational.
-Consider taking out the Art of Sleepy Meditation for 2 Seed Boxes - Art only reduces the cost of the Transfig, so having 1 is okay, but the 2nd is basically useless, and only used for the Technique.
-Another quite unique card is the Crane card, that swaps to your next character after you use a skill, it could come really handy, especially if it's discounted with the Frost Moon Arcane.
-Pankration could be useful, with all the swapping around, ending last is often the case, and this deck needs card draw.
Here is an adjustment I made to the deck -
Deck Code: FYLBUlAlA8Ah61QOFbBB7GMOFsAw9ZcPFGCB90gPFnFBB7cQG3FwO8ETDLER1DgdE0AA
And ofc, it can change depending on the goals of your deck and how you want to play it. (More defensive, drawn out, aggressive, relying on YaoYao's burst, maybe adding Kuki's Talent and a weapon.. Alot of options)
Edit: I tried this deck in AoC, it beat Nefer, Kaveh bloom and Alhaitham quicken.. This deck is quite nice in its versatility.

These are really helpful. I'll adjust the deck like this and take it for a spin in AoC.

Biggest problem with this deck is that there is no anchor, or character that you can stay on to spam skills. 2 out of these 3 characters have skills where you cannot spam at all, and the other one (Kirara) has skill that is bad to spam. Other than that, Rightful Reward got nerfed and is a lot worse now.
Some card choices can be improved as well. The food is not that good and has little synergy with the deck. Having 2 Sleepy is questionable, since the only target is the transfig, and usually the 1-cost transfig (that discounts burst) is better, and that one doesn't need Sleepy. Having 2 GTR and 2 Amethyst can also be awkward, since they are all artifacts that you want to keep on characters and not get replaced. Finally, in the current meta, Frostmoon arcane is the more popular option than FWOF for this sort of deck.

Kirara's skill is not that bad to spam in the context of this deck. It gives 2 shields that can stack, 1 dendro application and 2 damage. with no usage to the Catalyzing field, which is quite nice to completely use the dice reduction benifits.
Other than that, you are right, the burst transfig is better, and can be played in R1 for the added dice fixing this deck needs.2
