Best deck for grinding t50?

[Essence]

I've been trying to farm t50 with speed poison for a few hours now, and IDK if it's the AI, or just the sudden proliferation of SoGs across all of the t50, but speed poison just doesn't cut it anymore.  There's just too much healing and immortal Otys going around.

I was doing fine with an unupped poison deck (and I only have 1 arsenic to boot) vs top50 yesterday.  Made sure it was 31 cards so I wouldn't deck out with a bad draw vs shard farms.

Immortal Oty just means you play out the rest of your Chyrsaoras that you left in your hand so they didn't get Fire Storm'd.  Chances are you have enough damage on the board to outrace the Oty anyway.  The real problem is an immortal Queen, since she outraces your poison handily.

every1 always talks about the upgraded versions for this deck? i made one with only what i could buy with what i sold right off the shute. it is epic since its free.
 here it is.

x6 bone pillar
x6 poison
x6 sapphire pillar
x6 chrysaora
x1 alfatoxin (i found if i poison one of my chrys early the 1/1 spam is a nice additive and a fail safe vs time decks)
x5 freeze

all this and i still have about 150gold b4 any quests or games! this is a build any1 can use iv beat all quests and AI3 with zero losses so far. life has come and vs t50 and Ai5 i really need a weapon. but im holding my own 70%ish.. not bad for a free deck

plz add comments or advice.
sincerely

I'm using this deck for farming t50 , and it's pretty good , the only occasional lost ( once in a blue moon ) are due to very bad draw on my side and perfect draw on the opponent .
3 pulv it's a little overkill , even 1 may work and 2 are perfect .

I have done a lot of testing vs. Top50. All my testing was done after Wed so the Top50 wasn't full of new decks.

Played 180 games. 148 Wins, 32 Losses. 83% win rate. Games typically last 1-2 minutes unless the opponent drags it out with dim shields.

Note: The Earth Mark card is basically just another upped earth tower.

This one is my favourite against top 50 at the moment. It runs fast and usually wins quickly. Mark is gravity. (http://www.screenshotdumpster.com/view/m7Gbd48102/New_Bitmap_Image_2)

The optimal T50 deck is the optimal L3 deck. Yours is a terrible earth deck.

Excuse me, Differ. Koranuso knows what he's doing. Although his deck may not be as good as a standard shrieker spam, it is by no means "terrible". Antlions are often underlooked in favor of Shriekers; in actuality, they are very fast and cheap creatures (only *2* quanta for a 4/4 creature!? AND you can make it invincible?!) His deck is, as a matter of fact, very sound, and you would probably agree if you actually tried it instead of calling it "Terrible" just because it doesn't look like the standard Shrieker deck.

Thanks for the backup Icy.

I am always up for finding Top50 decks with better win rates than mine. A fully upped standard Shreiker deck though is not one of them. A good chunk of the Top50 use bonewall and having lots of lil guys works far better than a few big hitters. Plus like Icy said, Ant Lions are hella quanta efficient and have the same survival ability as the big guys.

I was hoping for some random speed rainbow. At least something creative. Who hasn't heard of the Shrieker Rush deck. The Antlions are kind of original I guess. Poison rush, neh, heard of it. Saw a speed rainbow, got excited, saw that it wasn't speedy, sadified.

Here is a link to my old Top50 deck which was a speed rainbow. It works good. Just doesn't have the win-rate or speed of the antlion/graboid deck.

Instead of bashing the deck perhaps you should try it out. I personally will never... quote "NEVER" use my upgraded shrieker deck again for T50 in lieu of this deck. This deck fills in some of the gaps vs. certain decks/cards with the gnome riders and ant lions (lightning, quicksands, bone walls). I always thought of both of those units as useless and am glad to find myself in the wrong . The majority of the time my shriekers don't even make it to the field or if they do the game is already in hand.

Now for the obvious: the upgraded shrieker deck is better for those who's cash is limited because it works unupgraded as well. But for those who can spend the money might think about trying this deck out and comparing it for yourself. 

Nice deck Koranuso, my speed poison and upgraded shrieker decks are now shelved.

Edit: Record is at 127-21 (85.8%). The deck that i have the most trouble with are the life decks. Those are just as fast and if they use Jade Staffs with adrenaline, game over.
