no im not on crack. I found I was winning 50+ per match. and most matches didn't last long :) maybe I just got lucky lol
You know there is one other important aspect to grinding besides money, and that is TIME. I'm guessing you have never grinded level 3's with a speed deck, right? Do that for an hour, then do PvP for an hour, count how much money you made, and then come back here to talk.

By the way, do you realise that quite often your posts are rather rude abrupt and confrontational?
I don't really care about that. What I said was true and what you said was false. It's not a matter of opinion, it's a mathematical fact. If you find that to be "rude" then I suggest you stop coming to public forums.

I'm glad it helps. After posting it, though, I realized that it might be better to run 6 Freezes and only 5 Dragons, but I guess it's up to you, lol.

Absolutely. Hourglasses are critical in a deck that size. The cheaper cost to use the ability really helps, especially in the early game when you're short on quantums. I find- even in my fully upgraded deck- if I don't have an hourglass in the first 10 turns or so I am nearly guaranteed to lose. Sundials can help but don't lats long enough from a card drawing perspective.

I'm talking about fighting against FGs, BTW. If you're playing lv3 or possibly top-50 then hourglasses might not be as critical.

I was thinking more along the line "Scaredgirl vs. Mr. Jellyfish cage match special only on PPV"

I would dump maxwells demon for a fallen druid- then you can mutate your skeletons or dangerous enemies.

Dump the graboid for a protect artifact.

Dump purify.

Add 1-3 more quantum pillars. I use 17 upgraded and still it's sometimes not enough for a good start in a deck that size. Unupgraded you will want a couple extras.

Mr. Jellyfish/scaredgirl-

I know this is a discussion forum, and sometimes discussions do sidetrack. However if you want to continue this discussion, please start a new thread- probably in off-topic. I'm sure I've seen similar comments in other threads as well.

Yeah I often find myself off to a great start only to run out of cards at the end. I would love to not have to stop drawing multiple cards just because I'm running out.

And do you mean ancient artifact?
I meant Enchant..

Sometimes forget the unupgraded names!

are you guys sure, as the guide states that I should be upgrading my hourglasses first? they don't see that useful. in a bind when i need some cards yes. but long term i need better attack

No I could have taken the time to point out the obvious points in my other posts to show you I never in fact disagreed with you at all. But really if you can't see it for yourself, I doubt myself pointing them out clear as day is going to help at all and in fact would probably only spur your negative attitude.

And I was being brutally honest I guess you could say. There was nothing spiteful or insulting in what I said.

Anyway jellyfish, with my post further up, where I posted my rainbow deck, can you think of any reason why I might be continually loosing and only able to beat the miracle set once so far?

Yeah fair enough I have 3 upgraded ones now and it does help IF you get them near the start of the game lol.

You gotta love it when you win a upgraded card from a FC that you can just put straight into your deck :P

I've got 9 upgraded cards now. And I've only upgraded 4 :D
