So, how does this build deal with astral nations?- Mind hunt for example?- Stellar cascades spam?

On the battlefield fire and light. damage seem like Achilles heal of the build. Fire storm?- Wrath. skies?

Oh, sorry missed this.

Firestorm isn't gonna do squat to most of what you're fielding so long as you're dropping marble warriors instead of mass protection. You've got a bunch of high hitpoint, 20+ protection, potentially regenerating guys, firestorm just doesn't do enough damage. Plus, as I mentioned above you're guys can move *fast* and hit *hard* so your opponent better not be planning on firestorm to carry the day by itself.

Stellar cascades - you do have a harpy strat and a bunch of maenads, get swarm very early and howl a bit later, plus hopefully have lifelong protections. Stellar cascade isn't too scary when it can't be concentrated and your opponent closes appallingly fast.
