AI3
My first mono darkness
Suggested Area of Play: AI3

This was my very first deck, my first 100 games were all wins thanks to this common mono darkness.  I thought I stumbled onto some great secret, only to find it was a common mono darkness deck.  Still I hold it as part of my own, since I didn't even visit the forums back in the day.

SoSa EpiVuBow
Suggested Area of Play: PVP2, Silver

This is a variant of the original EpiVuBow.  It's updated for 1.32 and is faster.  It's also running a couple sosa's for late game to win more against FG and Gold Arena.  In general it ends as a good PVP2 and Silver deck.  But can from time to time be used at the next level up.

THE BRAVE SERIES

About: 'The Brave' series it features where shards of bravery can be used in decks to make them much more power, especially for grinding AI purposes. 
Most decks are to feature 6 Nova, 6 Upped Shard of Bravery, 6 Upped Sundials, and 2 Upped Shards of Patience. But a few elements that combination does not work as well for, and so at least feature a 6 Upped Shards of Bravery variant of a common combo made faster.  As the 'The Brave' series' goal is to make unusable combos or those that die out in higher levels more usable because of the speed they come out at.

I've been happy with the results.
Starting with the strongest FG grinder:

The Brave Malignant Ball That Could
An awesome AI killer the EM's oftens  It takes advantage the AI does not target cells except to Plague or Firestorm.  The best FG ginder I've seen and something everyone should try.  It's been verified as having a 64% WR from CuCN, mine is still around 70%.  Currently around 3rd in efficiency tests and highest FG WR for 1.32

The Brave Damselfly Blitz That Could 

A very solid FG killer, also usable in Gold and Plat.  Achieves 200 OTK often by turn 7 if not before, make it faster than any of the others I've made of this series so far to achieve that.  A very fun deck as well.

The Brave Undead Cat That Could
Another good FG killer that EM's often.  It doesn't get away with the AI ignoring the cards, However, with the cat starting 1/3 and 3/5 by the end of a patients turn and the cheapness of them, often before enough CC gets out it's too late.  It can be faster than Cells and is close to matching Damselfly's version it easily has 200 OTK ability.

The Brave Old Times That Could
A faster version of New Old Times, usable against the same FGs and periodically others.  It Can have 200 OTK if played slower; it easily gets 100+ OTK.  I like it over the mainstay new old times of 1.32.

The Brave Big Ball That Could
The one that started this series, I've always wanted to build a fractal ball deck that could work against FGs, This is a highspeed FG killer that TTWs usually in 7 turns with a 30 to 40% win rate against FGs.  It can achieve a 200 OTK in 10 turns (and you deck out around turn 11 to 12)  It easily gets 100+ OTK in 4 to 5 turns.

The Brave Speed Vu That Could
Another speed deck, doesn't have a great win rate against FGs, it does beat some once and a while though, games over by turn 5, you either did 200 or you didn't.
None the less it's lot of fun and should be useful in other areas

The Brave Pest That Could
I ended up taking out the original vamp design and went with Fractal Pest based version as the stronger version. It's a bit hard to run denial against FGs though and it takes 3 to 4 turns to get the fractal out which some FGs can kill you buy then.  Still this is a fun little deck that makes fractal pests a bit easier to grind with if you like denial.

The Brave Small Creatures  (Originally Posted by RavingRabbid as Speedy Standards)
I mentioned in a comment below that I was playing with something very similar to the Speedy Standards for the  theme and then RavingRabbid beat me to the punch.  Regardless it is about the best you can do with life and bravery, just speed up the rush a bit more.

The Brave Suicidal Titan That Could
It doesn't do the sundial nova thing like the others or the PoS, but it was the one combination in gravity land that could benefit from the speed up that I could think of.
Consistently, this deck produces over 200 damage is 6 turns, but not as OTK.  and over 100 in 3 to 4 turns.  It still beats some of the FGs at that rate, but it's more of a shits and giggles deck

The Brave Gnome Pack That Could
Nothing particular to write home about, although capable of beating many FGs, not as many as Oldtimes or Damselfly variants let alone Malignant, also takes just as long if not longer than malignant.  Nor does it ever build to 200 OTK.  I want to come back and relook at this element, but this is what's coming to me right now.

You mean "Theme  "?

[treebeard xiii]

surely now this would be better transferred to deck compilations which mean you need to pm the deck helper and have it moved which i believe is inthisroom. Other than that nice decks sop fg killing 101

[Calindu]

Yes, moving to Deck Compilations.

[TribalTrouble]

Brave Damselfly is annoying to play against [when are you going to edit in those Ball Lightnings of yours? ]

Very nice decks though. Creative!
edit: Just made a variant Brave Old Times w/ Morning Glory + AW as my plat arena deck.
edit2: Above went 15-6 http://tinyurl.com/q6954sz

[Blacksmith]

Interesting even if some decks are kind the same. Would be interesting if you continued with this work. For example antlion asheter.

[Keeps]

First to TT, thanks for trying the brave new old times as an arena deck.  However, I doubt the AI will know how to play these well.  Still that one it could do ok with.
Not certain what you are asking for about editing the ball lightnings.
Ahh, you mean the 100 OTK,  well I built this thread based on building the 'most powerful' of each mono theme I could based on SoBr+SoPa+Dial combo, but accepting the SoPa and/or Dial drop if necessary.  The Brave Balls that Could, beats a ton of FGs, and can deal up to 200 in 6 Turns, it can be a 3 turn win in a PvP2 game sometimes.   Versus the 100 OTK pillar-less variant was just an idea at a 100 OTK deck, that has no where near the speed of the brave balls. 
Out of this series, the ones that are really worth while are malignant balls, damsel flies, brave balls, speed vu, and new old times.  These decks can win in only a couple of turns awesome for PVP or can beat with a very solid win rates FGs or Plat decks.

Then to Blacksmith. 
I tried antlion's over gnomes for  when I first approached  thinking the burrow SoP unburrow effect to double it to a +4/+2 in effect gained is cool however, it couldn't achieve anything great by themselves.  For the fractal portion which could be cool, I needed a lot more  quanta however, adding pillars or gnomes made the deck to fragile or too slow as I tweaked I found the gnomes staying and the ant lions leaving oddly enough.  Sadly, it becomes like so many of the other decks, but none of the umph.  The cells work against AI because of targeting, the damsley flys and balls work because of the damage per speed, old times because it gives the shield a boost, etc, gnomes just didn't cut it, it's a weak deck and  just didn't lend itself to the theme well as a mono.

I was play testing a version a while ago, but was still gathering stats for suggested play areas when I started getting board with the theme and realized I had played 1000 games in the trainer which I could have played malignant balls in the real game and actually have all the cards now instead of only half of the upped cards.  Oh well.   

Regardless, the best to this theme I found was fractal phoenix, like an eternal phoenix rush deck. 

For  , the SoP theme would have been dropped and I was testing something like 'The Standards' upped green AI3 rush deck I saw someone else post.  In fact, after I posted this collection I saw so many new decks using bravery almost all the rest of this sort of theme seemed to have been posted.  So I don't quite think Keep's Bravery Series is much of Keep's series if it wasn't created by Keeps you know.  So I stopped updated this collection since then.

[fruglemonkey]

Maaan, so many good decks using sop... Arena hates me and has only given me 2

I wanna try these decks out!

[Chapuz]

Are 10 towers enough for the catatitans? Playing unupped sometimes I get short on quanta with 14...

[Keeps]

Chapuz,
It's why the recommended area for the speed catatitans is PVP2 and Silver and the decks are presented upgraded.

Think of it like this to do >=100 damage, you need two titans flying a round of damage then catapulted.  That's 22 quanta.  That's pretty much achievable in 2 to 3 turns with upped towers.  However for >= 200 damage you need around 42 quanta, that's gonna take a while like 6 turns.

Bravery is not so useful if you do not have quick sources to quanta.   It would not work, nor does regular catatitans work as well, with unupped quanta sources.  So don't play with unupped towers.  Because unupped that 200 damage is now 7 to 8 turns and your decked out.

[Keeps]

Added some of the others of this theme.

[Leodip]

I had everything for it, so I decided to build the Brave Damselfy that Could. BTW, I'm not sure I understood how that works. Someone has a little guide, explanation, tips or something?
