I'm pretty new at this and here is the deck I have come up with so far:

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
4vj 4vj 4vj 58u 58u 58u 58u 5f5 5f6 5f9 5f9 5f9 5f9 5f9 5f9 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fb 5if 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5ur 8po


So far it's working great on level 3s and occasionally level 5s, but it falls far short of being able to take on false gods.  I also suffer pretty badly if my opponent has decent crowd control.  I was just wondering if any of you veterans have any advice on improving this deck to be able to at least take on level 5s consistently?  I'm very poor and farming level 3s is slow slow money.

I've changed it up a bit.  dropped a lava golem and put in a fire eater because I have been short on fire Qs.  Threw a heal in there so I can get the 100 HP bonus a little more often.

Edit: Forgot to mention I dropped the fire shield in favor of fog shield.

Fire.  I don't know why it isn't showing.  It works when I import the deck.

Nvm, I figured it out.

with the extra earth from the gnome riders chuck in a graboid or two, as the nova's and the immolations will get your time quanta, and take out the rage potion because it really is only good for the smaller creatures unless you use it on yourself but the chance of drawing it is very little. the big creatures are the ones you have to worry about, and if your deck is faster it can win before the AI even get them out.
For T50 it is hard to win as most of the decks in there are those that they farm AI 3 or AI 6 (false gods).  And the false god decks normally have antimatter or some other creature control. The AI 3 will generally be upped so they will have an advantage over you.

Thanks for the tip.  You are definitely right about the rage potion.  I have been beating half-bloods pretty consistently now as long as they don't destroy my initial rush when they are still weak. 

What do you think I should upgrade first?  I was thinking the gnome riders so I don't have to worry about having the stone Qs to be able to play them when they are available.  Sometimes I have to defer growth on my golems to the next turn so I can get a rider out, so being able to play them for free would increase my damage output and survivability of the golems.

Either the gnome riders or immolations as they will give extra fire quanta, but considering your deck i would go the gnomes. Another thing you could upgrade would be the lava golems as that way you get extra attack for the same quanta. What you dont want to upgrade with this deck is the nova's as they will cost  :entropy :entropy which means you have to get 2 immolations out first which can be a pain.
