This was surprisingly an extremely unpopular deck, despite being a rather unique trio that I've never seen done before.  For comparison, I'm pretty sure boring decks like PDials got me better scores, though admittedly this was a small sample size.  Still... sometimes I don't get people :p  Today's card is discord.  I have a weird idea I'm going to try here again... If anyone remembers some of my "extremely low quanta" decks, I'm going to try that, but with entropy.  Minor abominations, flying discords, chaos powers, etc.

I didn't think this deck would make it anywhere near as long as it did.  I can't complain, though...  Today's card is skeleton, so I get to be a newbie again   I think I'll try something with eternity... and I'm not sure what else, yet.

Almost 50% thumbs ups on this one   I'm extremely surprised it got as far as it did, though; it seemed like it would only last a few days.  I've noticed that most of my decks seem to go the full 8 days in recent times, so I think people are playing more casually against platinum arena,  or else I'm getting either luckier or smarter at building decks for platinum.  I even noticed yesterday at least one win at 1hp with this deck somehow :p  Today's card is GREEN NYMPH

LIFE NYMPHS RAAAAAAAR... pretty surprised this silly thing got anywhere at all.   Today's card is steal.  I'm not sure what I'll do with that one... there are a few possibilities.  pest/steal/earthquake... hehe  Maybe a trio of some sort, so I actually get some thumbs ups... but with those two elements at least.

Heh, I didn't think this one would be very popular, and I was right :p  I hoped it would get a few more thumbs ups than the standard monodarkness with pests, but I don't think it did any better in that popularity contest.  Today's card is skull shield.  I think I'm going to do an air/death stall, and use owl's eyes to weaken things that attack into skull shield, and/or kill them when they become skeletons.  It'll probably bomb, but at least it's a new idea.

This is actually the first deck in quite awhile that I can remember not going at least 8 days in the arena.  I thought something this unique would get a ton of thumbs ups, too, but it did really poorly there as well.  Ah, well... today's card is lava golem.  I should punish you all with an immorush or something, lol.  In fact, I think I will :p

I saw this deck take at least one win with 1hp   That, and apparently very few plays in the last few days, kept it going longer than normal.  Today's card is aether pendulum.

Well... that should be pretty much the baseline for people who just thumbs up everything :p  Today's card is freeze, which at least lends itself to quite a few duos or even trios, so I should be able to come up with something more clever.

LOOK AT THE THUMBS UPS!  15/24!! I think that's my best ever for any deck that lasted a reasonable amount of time.  I don't know what I did right on this one, but I'll try to keep it up!  Today's card is basilisk blood.

This deck lasted so long that I'm not even sure exactly what I was going for at the time :p  I think that I wanted something with gargoyles but without pests, and went from there.  I'm not sure why the deck wasn't getting any plays the last several days; I check my arena deck at least once a day when I check the oracle, so I know that less than 24 hours ago it was still active.  Lately I've been getting a lot of decks that just hover on the edge of elimination but never seem to get any plays at the end.

Today's card is emerald pillar.  I think I'll build my favourite monolife deck and see how it does.  I can't recall ever actually using it in the arena before.  It's a 60 card mono with scorpions and nymphs and mitosis and bonds and shards.

Well... I guess I can't expect too many thumbs up from just a mono deck, even if it is a bit unusual like this one.  Today's card is firefly.  Cards like that are always fun to build around, and I'll try to come up with something fun

edit: 27-3 with 9 thumbs ups, rank 28, and gravity mark on the firefly deck.  Not sure how high it will go, but it should've gotten more thumbs ups than that...

I thought this deck was really unique   When do you see a gravity/air deck that isn't catatitans?  My favourite combo, one that even the AI should do, is unstable gas with shards of focus out, to get an extra use out of them.  (on the other hand, it might kill 0/1 shards before using them, too... I don't know, lol)  Today's card is wyrm.  I've got an idea for that one; it's probably been done before, but at worst it will at least give people a lot of shards to farm!

edit: still alive (barely) at 14 days!
