The AI5 Farming Challenge

[Ant-n-ero]

The Deck
Black Soul did not mention his mark, so I kept mine as fire since that was the mark of the deck I was running.
(Saved myself 100 coins.)
For this deck Life or Death would be very useful, as queen and elf need it, and death is required for bonewall.
Never really needed much Time quanta, and my hourglasses usually showed up late anyway
Mind Flayer was added to replace Lobotomizer

Mark Changes are now free to do so
To change it go on 'My Deck' and click the mark picture to get a dropdown list of all the elements...

Fully unupped scarab-fractal deck:

To tweak it, try adding a phase dragon. Its possibly uneeded, but I play one in my half-upped deck.

88 minutes (last fight was really long)
Vitonos            lost to 2nd turn thorn carapace/empathic bond
Aririus                           won 42|145    28 no cards
Chrtis          lost to rush and not enough aether quanta- bad pillar draw
Mases           lost to titan
viteric                          won 59|458    27 no cards
Arial                                   won 0|0       30 no cards
Ariiel                                won 47|403    33 no cards
Pyrrius                         won 0|0       21 no cards
Aquacord              won 0|0       22 blue crawler
^ won on my very last possible turn. AI had permafrost shield on 3rd turn, mutated my 38|299 chimera into a dragonfly (lol -.-) and tsunami'd my pillars into dust. should have lost, really.

9 fights 5 wins 4 losses 55% victories 0 masteries 161 electrum 1 card
Biggest chimera: 59|458

Strategy: Chain dim. shields until you have enough quanta to play a scarab, fractal it and play 5-6 on the field at once. Eat everything. priority: anubis, butterfly effect, FFQ/Phaoroah. Play additional shields if being rushed. Play chimera if you have a decent field of scarabs and opponent has annoying shields up.
Chimera is vulnerable to rewind and mutate. Deck is vulnerable to permanents (weapons) and permanent-removal.

not having played much AI5 myself i could be totally wrong. but i decided randomly to take the proven best AI3 deck http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11389.0.html and do some AI5. 5 games later i havent lost, and the games have been pretty quick. somebody should test it or another really good AI3 deck.

Half upgraded deck. Don't have Obsidian towers yet : (  I guess i'd have far better results with them.
I only have a RoL - Hope deck fully upgraded, so i decided to utilise the already upgraded Aether cards. I didn't bother with tester, as i could earn real electrum for that time spent.
Vampire spam. Some offense against shields with steals and little cc with electrocutor. Two eclipses to increase chances its layed. Fast and good chances for elemental mastery but it seems like weak against fire. Some of the losses were really all about bad luck with card draw.
