Yeah, Crusader-Titan-Hole has the best stats so far. Only
deck could have been close to it I think. But, you know, I guess that stats gives only half the truth about deck, the other factors are decks other people use agains them and just luck. I don't belive that my other
deck is so much "worse" compared with Titan deck (as stats says), in testing they both gave me the same result against Rainbows (Rainbows didn't have any chance), but perhaps it says that people have started to use more Immo and rush decks against Platinum. Or may be that the other deck had just less luck.
Anyway, my massive brutal fat feroxian life spam gained 44-5; now if the Oracle has given me another
card - Flying Weapon - I decided to use something classical. Ferox is replaced by Divine Glory. Double intelligence (mark), full health.

. This means an Entropy deck and I can't submit that right now (and too lazy to use trainer too). Basically this was a deck that had 100 cards and 5 of everything: 5 Maxwells, 5 Pandemoniums, 5 Butterflies, 5 Purple Nymphs, 5 Micro Abominations, 5 Dragons; and in addition 2 Discords and 9 Pendulums and Towers. It went 10-1. Today I got Nymphs Tears and those are the cards that almost forced me to make something Rainbow-like, because other formats are far too weak imo (or they are overused like Bs-s, which are almost in every second deck now). This is my first Rainbow in Arena. I just threw some weak stuff there, didn't use growers, because they use quanta constantly, but Tears tend to take that quanta away. Triple mark helps to use purple Dragons as hitters and to make this Rainbow a bit sharper.
Edit: after 3-1 result I finally realized that there is no point to use Supernovas and and
mark in Tears deck. Embarrassing... Ok, I put my growers back and finally my deck looks like this:

Now I got the Poison, I got the remedy. Not really...no remedies except Purify or just very quick deck that could outrush this. I'm still in the mood of Rainbows, sorry. And I noticed if AI has a joice, then it Blesses Stalkers (not Arsenics and Physalias); also, it Blesses different Stalkes, not the same one many times. So its not totally hopeless that this could work. A dissappeared guy, called Malduk, made something similar some time ago.

Today I won a Pest from Oracle, but by previous deck is still 12-1.
Finally, after 6 days it got 64-4, but yesterday (1 day ago) it was 60-2 and the 9th rank. So I thought it is no point to keep it up, because health is too low already and it will start to get more losses. Now a Solar Buckler from the Oracle and a deck:

Now I'm kinda bored: too many lamebows are in the Arena (sometimes these are called also Oraclebows) and really too many people just copy each other's decks. And I also just finished some uneventful and kinda strange events in the forum. Now I guess this is really time for me to make another break. So far,
Lopic Tocked! And Untocked!
Now I have a bit more time to write. Lately it's have been better times in Arena. The reason may be that Arena just added some excitement and people play more and can afford more different kind of decks. And Arena awards are so high that there have been really busy under "I am awesome! I have 12 of every card" thread.
No doubt that overall
is the strongest element, followed by
.
is ridiculously quick in the Arena context- just put all Lances, Explosions, 12 Towers, triple mark and some damage (whatever it is, Flying Fahrenheits, Dragons, Golems) and you will most likely have a potential rank 10 deck at least. At least agains my anti-Platinum deck Fire Stalls are considerably weaker, I win agains those quite often. I have no idea what poeple use in Arena if they are afraid of those Stalls too much. Entropy is the second very strong element because it can afford Rainbows. When
is quick, then
is flexible.
Meanwhile I also tried to put into words how I think a good (Arena) deck looks like. Some simple rules (that could have some exceptions):
1. When you have upgraded cards, do not expect that Tower should give you much more than 6 quanta (unupped 5 quanta). Control decks can count for more. Pendulums are semi-Towers; quanta producing non-cost critters are Towers ; critters that produce quanta but cost something are Towers minus how much they cost. Mark is a Tower or slightly more (actually now I'm thinking that a mark is 2 Towers). When there are 6 critters that 1 use quanta every turn, add 2 towers (in 30-card deck); if that ability costs 2, then add 4 Towers.
2. The amount of overall quanta producers (Towers, Novas, Cremations) shouldn't be less than 1/3 in the deck (mark is not in the deck). If there are less, then make sure that you most likely can play something (quanta producing critter that is feeded by mark, cheap attacker etc) out in the next turn. And that "something" plus quanta producers shouldn't still take less than 1/3 of the deck.
3. In whatever kind of deck the amount of whatever specific quanta producers shouldn't be less than 1/6 of the deck. No matter how much that specific quanta is used.
4. In Rainbows all those rules apply but there in practice 1 Quantum Tower is only something like 1/6 or less than a mono-Tower. Like if you want to feed a Ghost of the Past for example (it costs 6), then you need either 1 Time Tower or at least 6 QT-s. When there is a Speedbow that has only few Towers, then you even can't assume than just each 1 of the QT gives you 1 quanta for each critter for sure; you should count as if every Tower gives you only 0,5 (then QT is even 1/14 of the mono-Tower) quanta from each element. In case of Supernovas and Cremations you can count on from 1/3 to 1/5 quanta they overall give.
There are always exceptions. For example, this deck's cost is 100 (acording to QI calcultor), but since it is a control deck and it doesn't have to rush, it is complitely ok that 14 Towers (or rather 13, but 14 with the mark) there have to produce slightly more quanta than 6.

You just can't count double cards there as it does and therefore this deck's cost is quite less than calculator says. Basically this deck has 14 quanta sources (mark is 2 towers) and that's enough.
Here is an opposite case when that calculator says that a deck has too many fire Towers:

Pendulums and
mark, then I got 2 losses pretty quickly. Feeding Physalias with the
mark was probably essential against some sort of quanta denials. This deck seems also to violate my second rule - there must be at least 1/3 quanta sources in the deck, but luckily there is a possibility to play Physalias out in the next turn, so there is not a big problem with that.
Today I won a
Pendulum again from the Oracle and put a weirdness up -

duo with the Parasites. I just thought that I almost never play them and therefore I gave a chance them too. I know it won't win much but I really don't care. What should I do with those wins anyway? There is more than enough electrum in my account. And it is much more important to know know which decks are winning and how to build those decks (if needed).
Previously I forgot one deck which was without losses too. Don't remember very exactly, but I believe this one was correct:

quanta, it is probably not so, because you should have enough time to gain quanta and there is no need to have quanta for all 6 Phase Shields asap. Its a bit that kind of joice-deck like previously showed
deck was: you can choose between Pandemonium, ButterFly Effect and Antimatter for example, but most likely you don't need quanta for all of them at th same time. Here AI can choose between
Dragons and Shields. (Of course it doesn't choose anything, it just plays Dragons first).

duo, but I thought that this time it wouldn't make that so EQ-oriented (I remember having also a deck with Poisedons and EQ-s, it was quite successful in that time). And it would be also nice to use my kind of new
Nymph; so looks so sad if I don't use her at all.

The minuses of this deck were that (1) it wasn't very quick, (2) it didn't have permanent control and (3) and compared with the similar deck with the EQ-s it gave some time to build defense. This decks wasn't probably outrushed, but killed slowly. Let's say if a Novabow has a Permafrost with the few Shards up, it would be already hard to do anything. Or if a Poseidon comes too late, there is no EQ-s to compensate late Poseidons. Or even worse - if a Poisedon was stolen early, then this deck would have had quanta problems itself. And quanta denial decks could kill that deck too. Not to mention decks that have PA-s, like I used to have agains Platinum:

But against Arena, it depends more from the concrete day, sometimes it is good to have few Sanctuaries instead of Sundials there).
Ok, back to the topic.
Towers from the Oracle and a type of deck that was very popular among the control freaks
some time ago. It was mostly used along with the Phase Shields. Now this decks has lost a bit of its previous popularity.

Disspiation Shields, Antimatters, Pandemoniums, Butterfly Effects, Maxwell's abilities, Purple Nymphs - all of them may be basically useful or useless. And there are many copies of those. Making this deck I basically counted only 1 Dissipation Shield, 1 Pandemonium, 1 Antimatter in as quanta needers, since they are situational, but on the other hand I counted all Butterfly Effects (AI plays them immidiately if it can), Maxwells and Purple Nyphs in as quanta needers. The quanta calculator would say that this deck is heavily short of quanta. That might be true, but only a bit.
6-0 and
strikes again. But with smaller deck this time - Purple Dragons from the Oracle.

First 100 games gave me quite different result (overall and against each god as well) from the next 100 games. And then, surprisingly, results started to change pretty sharply again. After that I just abandoned that task. The only thing I noticed is that statistics go up if you play in the good mood
. Enough said about the "objectivity" of the statistics.
Today I won an
Dragon and I just made a simple deck with them.

In order to make a balanced deck with them, the deck must be big. To make a good deck, the deck must have the best cards
has and 6 of them: 6 Lances and 6 Explosions. But a big deck needs a bit more creature control just in case, Fire Strom controls only masses. So, let's put Rage Elixirs in. Fahrenheits are very good cards in the context of triple draw - they are in too. But what about Immortals? How we kill those? Of course, the Fire Shield! But those Immortals can kill you before Fire Shield has finished it's job. What about some healing then? We have some overpowered Shards too! Let's put these in! Ok, enough of sarcasm. But the truth is that if the Oracle gives Fire Storm, then there are not too much choices to make a balanced decks. To differ at least a little from the other fire stalls, I added 3 Dragons there, although in the practilcal sense they are not necessary at all.

But there is also an additional moment: Fireflies are basically Fire Pillars and there are only 6 of them. If the deck would be bigger, like 40 cards for example, then it would violate my third rule of deckbuilding - there shouldn't be less than 1/6 specific quanta producers in the deck.
7-0 for such a slow deck and even without the permanent control!? What you guys are using there? Today I won a Firefly. It's already 100 time I win this card and now it's really an omen that I'm gonna be in the

That was similiral to that, what I tried to make with Scorpios previously, but sadly Scorpio decks lacked some Shards (and I still don't have them). Now Nightmares. Just a simple deck with them:

Thanks anyway
. As far I have seen this thumbs up and down thing is complitely random and has nothing to do with the deck's "originality" (not sure what it exactly is, some oldies here have probably seen pretty much everything; "original" may be called only some crazy stuff, but those decks usually don't win often and my votes are based just on subjective feeling and I must say that most decks seem unoriginal to me, but maybe I'm just bored).
30-2 after few days and now green Towers. A deck:
