I've honestly had terrible terrible luck. I've had 3/4 gold so many times and 2/3 platinum to only lose each time due to a terrible draw or just one of those unbelievably terrible decks.

I agree with majority of people that it is tough, consider most of deaths critters get taken out by firestorm screw you firestall, but hey I will always accept a challegne to be oringal!
Whenever you feel alone and nobody is there, you can't feel more alive.

Dieing is easy, living is hard.

It's not "tough."  It would be fine if it was just "tough."  It's largely luck-based, which is worse.

i wish we were at least able to change decks between leagues, not doing that is killing me

Yes, that would help greatly - you finish one league only to find out you're screwed in the next one.  So you have to start over completely or just trust to blind luck.

I still have yet to complete any league for Task I, despite having designed about 10-15 decks, all solid decks that can perform in PvP.  Even anti-stalls.  No luck.

That's why I built a deck to DESTROY Silver and Bronze nearly 90% of the time, and I hoped to get lucky vs Gold. It took me a total of over 10 hours of playing against Gold but I did it....

I went with the opposite plan.  I figured Platinum decks are generally the most difficult so I kept trying decks on there until I found something that seemed to work.  After that Gold and Silver weren't too difficult.
Carpe Diem!!

Try building a deck that will do that with at least half Light cards.  The best I've been able to come up with so far has been a 3-win chain.  Looking at the Light trial thread, it looks like someone's already used RoL-Hope, which I thought was verboten, so maybe I should just give up and run a Vader Sader?

Hmm question time.  Rules state 25% of the deck has to be within Element.  So I'm assuming threads like this would be off limits completely since there's no way to tell how much of the OP's deck idea was within Element, right?  http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,29074.0.html

http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,29103.0.html < at the bottom kev made a ruling against other elements not mentioned using it. So 927 might wanna check with him too since he added gravity. That being said I don't know if Kev made a ruling about life since the guy asked for life scorps.

Yeah I noticed that.  I just figured that if it was addressed in a thread that is more frequently visited by all Trials participants that less people would make that mistake :>
