And now I'm going for the  gold challenge. I assumed that all elements of the pack must be used.

@Chapuz that scarab deck is sick

Classic, just came to my mind. More than once I faced scarabtals while testing stuff in PVP 1.

Let's see if we can make decks such that it's partially upped and more ups would make the deck fall over or be no more effective than it already is.

Also, modified the OP. Reread that for our new objectives.

Hope-bow is a deck I've used in the past. I believe 5|3 Luci|Hope is the ideal number.

This deck is pretty fast, in 20 Games against AI3 I managed three 4 Turn Wins.
So, in fact, it already works pretty well.

I was just wondering if there's a way to make it more stable, because starting hand can still be annoying (no SC, no Dragons, no Immos etc.)
The SoB can counter this problem pretty well, since with Immo + BL I got enough quanta to play it. But I still need to draw it in opening hand...
Another thing is that with only one Immo I still need to have waited at least two turns so that
I can play a Crimson Dragon. The Brimston Eater can surpass this but actually he's a better Immo Fodder than BL...

However, my first idea was to remove a Crimson (or something else?) for another SoB. Not sure though how clever that would be.
I also was thinking to swap the Brimstons with SoFr since the Dragons have a great Atk.
---My other idea was to exchange the Crimsons with Golems and the Brimstons with Gemfinders. This would allow me to play 3 Golems with just 2 Immos. This way I could remove one Immo for maybe a SoB. Also, Gemfinders have 0 cost and would allow me 2 more First turn Immo Fodders. ---

So, what would you guys change on this deck?

Edit: the change between the '---' is my favorite as for now.

It requieres tones of things you only have 6 of each to work. Just to start, you are needing a BL and 2 cremations. I would replace a crimson for another ivory and a cremation for a 3rd eater to have another non-BL bait (and more  gain)

I'm gonna try your change (-1 Crimson, -1 Immo, +1 Eater, +1 Ivory), thanks!

 In fact I also noticed that I'm very tight on that's why I'm trying the following modification:

what do you think of it?

You will want to cremate the baits to get the ivorys, so you won't have enough  and  at the same time.
Try to avoid messing with 2 strategies that overlay with each other. Immorushes work because you won't cremate all the gemfinders, so they have enough  quanta anyways.

I have been messing HERE some time ago with what you wanna do, using gemfinders as cremation baits and virus (or retros) as auto dying creatures (or emergency immo baits). Of course, the walls can be replaced for recluses/dragons for a rushy rush.

I don't want quanta. I think Golems are strong enough with 7 atk. Currently I'm thinking of removing another Immo, not sure what replace it for atm.

In fact I was inspired by this deck! It's pure awesomness. Do you think the Retros are still needed if I replace the Bone Walls for recluses/dragons? Or in other words, is there a better choice? hm... i already got some ideas. Gonna play around with it a little
