How many top500 plays are people getting? In two days my deck has been faced three times total by the community. (1 win 2 loss, level 59 gold) I was expecting a lot more plays, but maybe people aren't playing top500 much? I'm playing it a lot (mostly in the platinum league) because the electrum rewards are so huge.
I was also expecting a bit more electrum per win, but I don't know what's normal. I got 4 electrum for my deck's arena win :p
The top500 is a great place to farm score, though
Since arena came out, I've made 7k score, and in that amount of time, I'd have made about 2k on false gods. The money rewards are more stable in arena, as you just get electrum (and unupgraded junk) whereas false gods have a chance to drop upgraded cards, so I'm not sure which is better for cash, but it's pretty obvious to me that platinum (or gold) is the best for getting score. I've made one level so far and am close to another one, which will put me in platinum league. Yay!
Also, if zanzarino sees this, I just want to say that so far arena kicks ass! (and so does getting red nymph from oracle for my first arena spin /bragging)
edit: woo my deck got another win, and it was 4 electrum again :p Maybe that is a typical amount, then.
