The AI5 Farming Challenge

[standizzle]

I need some help with this deck its fun to play so if anyone has any ideas to help improve its AI5 performance i would appreciate it.

not the place to do this, but ill do it anyway. so, here it goes.

add 1 steal, take away 1-2 fractal.

take away 3-4 aether pillars.

take away 6-7 darkness pillars.

figure out if you want dusk mantle or phase shield. pick one, and use 2-3 of them.

so, 44 cards, brought down to about 32-35. your deck will run ONE HELL of a lot faster.

Made some of the suggested changes to my deck and ran the challenge again.


This is a section 2 deck with no rares but 13 upgraded cards.  It could be used without the upgrades but would obviously not be as good.

This was a very good run for me.

23 Matches played

15 Wins and 11 EMs

717 Electum won total and 6 cards won including 1 upgraded card

Total Electum gathered was 2014

This is a fun little way to spend an hour and a half and not bad electum gains.

[Terroking]

Xoned, your deck will be much more effective (Except vs. Eternity/RT) with Flesh Recluses instead of Mummies. Same cost, same hp, Recluses have +1 damage.

On the other hand, you could make it a lot simpler and duo with Bloodsuckers (5/2 for 2:darkness with Eclipse) and a few vamps, you'd get mastery more often than not too.

1. chriel 140 EM no spin win decked out
2. aquaeric 238 EM no spin wins

4. Chrsa lost after 3 mins.
5. Aquaiel 229 EM  1 win
6. vitrius 240 EM 0 win
7. Masonos 245 EM 1 elite graviton creature

This isn't my optimum deck as I was playing around with Butterfly Effect and the Mind Flayer. I think it will do better if you swapped 2 Deflagration cards. Maybe I'll try a completely un-upped deck later, using Empathy instead of the Shards.

I'd also like to see its performance if I use 20 Quantum Towers instead of 10 plus Novas.

So here's the deck I used. It's a sort of upgraded version of Scaredgirl's rainbow. Here's the stats:
I won 10 games, EM 4 times, Lost 5 times, won 4 cards one of them upgraded. I also won 529 electrum. And no, I wasn't playing very fast, I probably could have played a few more games.

[verity_blues]

Optimalist asked me to run this test on my current HalfBlood deck. It is kind of late, so I oppted to make a 30 minute run instead of the requested 90 minutes. I will make a 90 minute run soon and update.

In the 30 minute run I played 8 games, I won 6 and lost 2 (1 tower in first 10 turns in one of those losses, ) of the 6 wins 5 were elemental masteries. I won 428 electrons and 3 cards(got lucky), two upped

Heres the deck

Will update later after a 90 minute run

[finkel]

60 minutes of play (20-30 minutes of breaks/recording games). Once I get another SoG (I've got 6+ unupped shards of both kinds) I'll play some more games and get my strategy down pat/tweak my deck, and post again with a solid 90 minute session. I''m going to play around with the number of dragons/immortals. Let me know what you think and what changes you'd make. With just two upgrades and one rare, this deck manages to win 50% of the time with 50% of those being EMs. Enjoy!

Basic strategy (developed while playing this session):
-build up as many creatures as reasonably possible before playing shields to maximize probability of being able to chain them for the remainder of the game. Play shards whenever possible except against half-bloods with steals/deflags. If you're low on health and are healing a good amount each turn, do the math. if you can win without playing more creatures, don't, try to heal up to get the EM.
-if the enemy plays spine/thorn carapace, don't play any creatures. They will die within a few turns. Instead, wait until your opponent plays another shield in place of it. If necessary, hide behind shards/shields until it's safe for your creatures to come out and play.

Win/Elemental Mastery/Loss: 13/5/7
**at least 2 if not more of the games should have been EMs, but it took me a few games to get the hang of this deck.**

cards won: upgraded lightning bolt on the very first game, and unupped deja vu later.

coins (without selling cards): 805

aethial: elemental mastery. Upped lightning bolt.
aethrius: win
masiel: loss (momentumed+blessed massive dragon+titan second turn+lots of black holes
discord: loss (early discord)
pyrow: elemental mastery
shadal: loss (only drew two shields)
moral: elemental mastery
masrius: win (barely – lob saved me from chargers, but the early titan made it a close game)
chrow: only had one immortal for the first 10 turns. Won despite procrastination shield
masofuze: elemental mastery. Unupped graviton firemaster.
Chrchord: elemental mastery
lumcard: win
mascord: lost at the last second to butterfly effect on my shields
aricord: unstable gasses+fog shield robbed me off EM by 4 health >.<
chrrius: elemental mastery. Unupped Deja vu.
Massa: he got early gravity shield+titan. I got two early shards but only one shield (terrible luck). Loss.
Aritis: win with 99 health because he got arsenic out when I had no shields and did one poison damage.
Arieric: loss. NO shields or shards.
Masofuze: win (no elemental mastery b/c of titan
lumrius: win (no elemental mastery b/c of last-turn icebolt)

hrmm - seems like any deck seems to only have a max of ~70% win rates
don't think I've seen one better than that ever!

[Kakugane]

This deck is a modification of Black Soul's deck.

Unlike most of the suggestions that rely heavily on rares and upgrades, this deck only has
1 weapon
3 Quantum towers (upgraded quantum pillar)

Here are my wins with coins and if a card was won

Half Blood Name	Coins won/Loss	Cards won
Pyrtis	47	1
Masonos	loss	=(
(Fire Element)	loss	=(
Vites	44	1
Moral	38	none
Terow	23	1
Moral	20	none
Aethcord	29	none

Aethcord was tough in the beginning. He used a quinted Purple dragon, but the Dim shields showed up in time
Also versus either Vites or Pyrtis, I was brought down to about 2 hp at one point, and came back to win.

The Deck
Black Soul did not mention his mark, so I kept mine as fire since that was the mark of the deck I was running.
(Saved myself 100 coins.)
For this deck Life or Death would be very useful, as queen and elf need it, and death is required for bonewall.
Never really needed much Time quanta, and my hourglasses usually showed up late anyway
Mind Flayer was added to replace Lobotomizer
