I'd do something like this (taken from jmizzle's post here:

FireThis is one of the most inexpensive builds you can make in the Fire element for farming Level 3. Here's the fastest way to build it.
First, take out and sell the following:
- 2x Fire Spirit
- 1x Fire Shield
- 2x Deflagration
- 1x Rain of Fire
- 1x Immolation
- 1x Freeze
- 1x Blue Crawler
Now buy 2 Crimson Dragon and 2 Burning Pillar. Put them in the deck and take out all the Water cards, but make sure you keep one Rain of Fire and one Purify in your reserves for later. Complete the first battle against Level 0 and get the reward for the first three quests. Buy 2 Burning Pillar to replace 2 Quantum Pillar (don't sell the QP), then beat the Level 1 quest and get the reward. Complete the Level 2 AI quest and finish building the deck by fighting against Level 3.
Strategy is simple: play your Dragons early and often, use Immolation on your Ash Eaters to accelerate into more quanta for earlier dragons or bigger Fire Bolts. Use the Fire Bolts on your opponent after accumulating a lot of Fire quanta.
That's it! You now have a deck that is fun to use and can grind Level 3 quite effectively. Your next step should be to gain electrum towards building a deck to beat Level 5 AI (
