Right now I have liquid antimatter to farm FG, but it's win ratio is simply too low for me for keep farming. It really hurts to watch my electrum and score being wasted

I think I need a more efficient FG deck but what should be my next FG deck ? I have checked the FG deck thread, but I don't know which one is more cost-effective

What I want is a semi-upped FG deck. Getting a fully upped deck is too difficult for me at this moment

Besides, I have only a limited number of rares and it's frustrating to farm Bronze League, even with the mono-darkness Arena deck.

Can any one tells me which FG deck should I pick ?

And what should I do when I can't get rares ? Farm FG for upgrades first, or farm Arena for rares first ?

And I'm sick with my mono-darkness deck, should I spend electrum, which is quite important for me right now, on another deck I really want to use ?

Flay 'em or RoL/Hope for semi-unupped. I suggest farming Arena first for rares, using Grabbow or that Monodark.
But if you really don't want a monodark, switch to Grabbow. Also try to farm PvP, as people will generally have rares there you can farm.

Before you try to gain wealth, it's more important to broaden your card library, farming AI3 and don't sell the cards. Then, after you have a fairly solid library, you can build many decks. Then farm FG.

go for Limitless speed FG OTK (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,31572.0.html) as a rareless deck with few upgrades to be able to work, plus you should try to beat the daily False Gods the oracle predicts using a counter deck, most of them have a fully unnuped counter so its a good way to get some upped cards in the long run

Well for me I only grinded ai3 for around 2 days before switching to liquid antimatter for 1 day (got 6 upped cards, lost 2k electrum). I then switched to limitless speed (because I already had upped 1 rage elixir and 1 light dragon). In my experience, limitless speed nearly unupped is not much better than liquid antimatter and probably not worth upping 3 non-instosis cards for. Rol/Hope suxx sorry. It required 3 rares and has a very low win rate and it's really difficult to re-use Rols in any other deck a newbie might want to make.

I just would just recommend you to rush to instosis as fast as possible. I managed to do it within 2 weeks of starting due to luckiness getting 2 SoR in 1 hour. You only need 3 SoR for instosis, replace the 4th with a parallel universe. I recomend you start with 6 upped supernova, 1 siluarian dragon and 4 electrum hourglasses. I did that and upped my whole deck in just 1 day.

So yeah, in the meantime, liquid antimatter is probably the best thing to do, unless you have enough money/cards already to get half upped instosis. I also farmed the bronze arena with monodark to get my initial 3 SoR.

I cant believe you are still using liquid antimatter btw. I started almost 2 months ago, around the same time you joined the forums and I am already in the plat league with lots of upped cards. As I said, rush to instosis as fast as possible and everything will just be easier after that.

Instosis ------> tons of money ---> better upped decks ----> more efficient bronze farming ------> rares for plat farming ------> get score really quick.

Go for instosi from the start.

The hardest part is the 4X SoR.
After that, you can make the deck with 6x upped sundials only, and upgrade as the cash flows in.

You can farm FGs for rares and gold for money with that. Don't go for plat before fully upped.

Pretty sure you need the novas and dragon upped only.... then towers and hourglasses.

I agree: work towards Instosis. Also now that you (presumably) have a solid card base, keep an eye on PvP Events and tourneys. They're really a lot of fun.

Instosis is a great deck, but just to say, it will be less effective after the SN nerf. I have tried to play avoiding SN chains, but a lot of times is the way to have hand slots to more draws.

And I admit, getting rares nowadays sucks. I have tried (not too much, but still...) lower leagues to get rare spins for a few days already. Got 3 of the useless water shard, and a lot of weapons I dont need :P

If you want one NOW, you could use limitless speed FG OTK. Not as good a rate as others in its semi-upped for, though.
My 3 game-modification principles:
1. If it ain't broke, don't wreck it.
2. Simple fixes for simple problems.
3. Remember to fill in the holes.
