Bronze is the way to go if you hunting for shards and other rares

Nossir. If you have a deck that beats bronze with around 90% efficiency, try it in silver and if you reach 83% there (5/6) then silver is better.
Plus, factor in the enormous (as of now, 14.5 times) differene in score/ electrum gain per win.

So, the odds  the spins are better in silver -> Gold -> Plat

well... if you can beat all leagues with the same efficiency, then the odds of spinning a rare are  plat>gold>silver>bronze. (since you need fewer and fewer consecutive wins in each league to spin)
Of course, the difficulty of the decks are bronze<silver<gold<plat.

so you must figure out your winning percentage vs. the frequency of rarespins vs. the time it takes to spin for each league and choose the best one.

for example, if you have a deck that wins 90% in gold, and it can win 85% in plat as well, then plat is better for you.

same for all the other leagues.

My personal experience is that if you have a deck that wins 90% in bronze (meaning that, in 100 games you'll win 90 and thus will have 90/6=16 spins) then you might be able to win 80% in silver with the deck (winning 80 in 100 will earn you 80/5=16 spins) then you should play silver.

Of course this is not this easy to determine, since you'll need consecutive wins, deck tweaking etc etc. But you get the idea.

Thanks

with a basic, mostly unupped arenagrinder, go for bronze.
with a deck like this (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,32901.0.html) or this (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,32189.0.html), I'd go for silver.

be in mind that all the leagues are constatly changing, as their metagaming, so those percentages can be far from accurate some of the times. in the end, not counting score and electrum, bronze is always a better a safer choice to go for the special spin

safer=/= more efficient

False on long run, & rare grinding is a LONG run.

Is there a time limit between two post on forums? If so, how big is it?

Switched to farming silver and with good results so far.  Thanks guys.
