@vivimancer: what does the pvp1 meta look like currently, you seem to favor that playground. any hints for entreprising newbies?
In pvp1, this week I have been mostly seeing fire fly queen + ruslter decks, bull frog + green adrenal spam, a lot of mono aethers, steam machines, phase spider rush, and recently its evil twin psion spam. A lot of darkness devourer minor vampire decks. Cats + boneshield decks, there are a few really nice flying weapons decks out there, my personal favourite lava golem rush, scarb/pharoah spam, light dragon + miracle decks. the rainbows lots and lots of rainbows favouring pop-up critters like werewolves, forest sprits. It all so seems to be a test bed for players seeing if decks are practical, I keep seeing one guy with a new deck every time.
At the moment Shard of Focus is definately an 'in' card as is Ghost / nightmare combo. Going out of style earthquake + pulvy decks, and 60 card time rainbows.
In conclusion use Mono-aether or mono-fire for best results 
so, basically the entire contents of bronze and gold league. thanks for taking the time to write that up.
Silver, AI3, and maybe even PvP1 net more electrum than AI4. Even if you choose to farm AI4, adrenavamps is a pretty slow (compared to rushes) and fragile (compared to Mono-Aether). Maybe you're just farming on the wrong things, or with the wrong decks?
Interesting, my card collection got a boost with the introduction of AI4. Getting upgraded cards directly from subpar AI decks seemed the fastest way for me.
my cash flow got a boost with the introduction of AI4. i can't say i've gotten upped cards consistently, but em'ing 6/10 matches at 80
each really helps.
@pineapple: it was a question to see if fikraxtein's and my earnings were an isolated incident or a trend. i see now it's a trend, so be it. the question for changing the situation is moot in this thread (heck, all points are valid, but i don't want to open that can of worms).
