@BP
Good point with the  :electrum /turn calculation. Turns don't necessarily last the same amount of time with different decks, but I think it's close enough for all intents and purposes.

As to worrying about people min/maxing to get the most out of the bonuses: as long as rush decks are still the most efficient way to get :electrum I really don't see this being much of a problem.

On a more general note, so far I've only really been considering AI3 (at least primarily), but Essence does bring something to light: matches against AI5 or FGs tend to be longer.

Should we discuss different bonuses for different AIs? (could get too complicated?)

I have been purposely avoiding that lol. Although, i think this would be good added insentive for grinding half bloods, and even make the fgs more worth fighting again. I never did think the risk/reward ratio was good enough for those.

If worst comes to worst, we could even create a formula for EACH level.

For FGs, since the reward of upped cards is so much larger than the bonus we're proposing anyway, you can probably just apply the bonus for ai3 and not worry about it. I don't really ever do HBs, so I don't know what that would mean for them, but I suspect that again it wouldn't matter too much.

I dont think adding it to just ai3s would be good. Ir should at least be for 1-5

I wasn't quite clear with what I meant. What I meant was that applying the same bonus to HBs and FGs as ai3 would probably be fine.

I read somewhere that not everyone in this world gets the priviledge to receive good education. I think the same article also talked about how cultural sensivity was needed rather than referring those people with words like "can't dos."
I'm just mumbling lol.

But, wow, BluePriest sure can do math! :)
