The Ultimate Speed EM Deck

[Bootsza]

What Higurashi says is true, however, I have had some succes with this Mitosis version:

Code: [Select]

6rk 6rk 7ac 7ac 7ac 7ac 7ac 7ae 7ae 7ae 7ae 7ae 7ag 7ag 7ag 7ag 7ag 7ai 7ai 7ai 7ai 7ai 7ai 7ap 7ap 7bu 7bu 7bu 7bu 7bu
Blank cards being mitosis.

I dropped one frog and one cockatrice to fit in the mitosis.  The problems with shields and CC remain but mitosis does seem to even out some bad draws and damage production.

I chose to drop one of each creature type thinking to play mitosis on a frog for a AI3 without CC and on a cockatrice for those with rain of fire, eagle's eye, etc...

I also experimented with two staves instead of long swords but, once again, I found the speed increase with swords to be undeniable.

When I get the electrum, I'll up some mitosis and try this.

Mitosis is also cutely useful against that Time mark with an early dune scorpion

That might just be the easiest Elder around though for USEM.

[Bootsza]

Yeah, it is completely a "cute-ness" rather than a serious application

Okay, big, big news.  I ran 200 test games on the version above, which has been dubbed "USEMosis" for simplicity's sake.  I will compare the stats of both decks side by side with each other, so that everyone can see the difference clearly.  *USEM=Green, USEMosis=Orange

Games: 200	Avg. TTW: 7.223	Avg. sec/game: 62.135	Avg. Score/Min: 28.44290657	Wins: 193	Losses: 7	Ems: 148	Win %: 96.5	EM%: 77%
Games: 200	Avg ttw: 7.157	Avg. sec/game: 61.335	Avg. Score/Min: 29.01442896	Wins: 197	Losses: 3	Ems:  145	Win %: 98.5	EM%: 74%

More importantly...
USEM Score/Hour:  1707
USEMosis Score/Hour:  1741

Time required to obtain 1k score:
USEM:  35.1 minutes
USEMosis:  34.5 minutes.

USEM Electrum/Hour (without spins):  1921
USEMosis Electrum/Hour (without spins):  1954

Time required to upgrade 1 card:
USEM:  46.9 minutes
USEMosis:  46.1 minutes

Now then...
After test running the "improved" variation of USEM, I have one thing to add.  Even though I managed to provide stats which support the fact that USEMosis makes more score/electrum per hour over the original USEM, I would still suggest using the older variation unless you are extremely experienced with AI3 grinding.  In order to obtain these stats I had to make decisions with practically lightning fast speed; such choices are NOT made when dealing with a deck which does not run Mitosis.  Because you have to think (yes, think) when playing Mitosis, the mindless grinding aspect is essentially removed from the equation completely, which means you could potentially take much more time considering your next move and this as a result would cause the score/min value to decrease as a result.  Plus, the fact that the values are already super, super close to each other means that with enough luck USEM could actually overtake USEMosis yet again (The first 50 games I did with USEMosis were actually lower in terms of TTW than USEM, and by the 150th game the difference between the two was 0.005TTW.  Score/Min remained in USEMosis's favor the entire time, however).
I hope this was helpful to clear up the debate between USEM with Mitosis over the same old, same old.  I'm 90% sure that the variation with 2 Mitosis is as efficient as any USEM variation running Mitosis will get.  3 in this deck requires too much quanta and reduces reliability by a greater factor, and 1 would make the difference negligible; this is as good as it gets...for now.

How do you grind that fast???

[thatnewguy]

He's a robot, don't ask. Just look at the pretty stats and enjoy.

Anyway, now that mitosis + USEM makes the new line of EM mono life *stares at wolfunit* This peaks my interest of a new series of mono life featuring cockatrices + heals + bonds for a new kind of EM deck. Or maybe just a variation of speed heal + mitosis, it will need work.

Good job will, glad you took the time for this.

[willng3]

How do you grind that fast???

Experience and unbroken concentration.  Plus the High Speed AI setting makes things much, much easier now.  So...yes, I essentially am a robot when I grind.

[Bootsza]

Nice work!  Impressive stuff and it is great to see them side by side like that.

You are indeed a robot but mitosis is kinda fun is't it? 

(I also love that name - USEMosis!)

Everyone send bootsza karma for his awesome improvement to USEM and AI3 farming.

Bootsza you rock.  I didn't think making a more efficient deck was possible.

[Bootsza]

Many thanks for the Kudos

It really is much appreciated but I was just messing about with your original deck and Willng3 did the hard yards.

It does feel good though to have my idea validated
