Full Creature is a specification for decks that consists of a heavy amount of creatures (usually the entire deck).

However without spells to support your creatures, the stability of your deck will go down. While cards such as Faerie Life or Energy Stream can seem slow or initially low impact, they allow you to gain advantage for later turns. This type of full creature deck also can't use the flexibility of creature options from Hyperspatial spells.
