This is a major revision on my Platinum Mind-Reader. Enough so that I think it deserves a new topic.

The best part about this deck is you learn to play so many different decks...even if you don't own the cards. Every game is different and I'm always learning.

Spoiler for STRATEGY:

Main idea behind the deck: Get huge elemental mastery wins. Platinum gives out 300+ Electrum for EM at normal hp, at 180 hp it gives 550+
How to do it:
1. Get Hourglasses up ASAP.
2. Start copying with mindgate (make sure you have enough for shields though!)
3. Play SoDiv to increase hp
4. Play Eternity + Protect Artifact and reverse your photon if you are in danger of decking out
5. Play Miracle + Heal on the turn you win to get EM

Spoiler for ORDER TO UPGRADE:

If you haven't upgraded all these cards yet, do it in this order:
1. All the Hourglasses
2. Lobotomizers
3. Aether Pillars
4. Phase Shields
5. Quantum Pillars
6. Mindgates
7. Miracle
8. Purify (might be helpful upgraded against an early nerotoxin if you get a lucky draw?)(Probably not worth the 1500 electrum required to upgrade!)
(Enchant Artifact, Photon, Eternity, Heal, and Purify don't really need to be upgraded. You should have TONS of extra quanta when you play them)

Spoiler for MAJOR CHANGES from Platinum Mind-Reader:

Removed the SoSes to focus on mindgate
Added Purify to improve odds vs. Poison and SoSac
Added Eternity/Photon/Enchant Artifact to prevent decking out (6 Hourglasses get you moving pretty quickly)

I would add lobotomizers or mindflayers+quints just because of how prevalent sofo is in this format. Also, some form of healing, like Sancs, wouldn't hurt.

Very true. I've been having trouble with them. I'll try adding lobos

[Edit] Added two lobos, so far it's working wonders. I updated the stats and the deck in the original post.

im working an un upped version right now. i like it a lot so far but obviously un upped is not as good... at all... i will keep running poison dials till i save enough gold to up! thanks

Just beat a Platinum Deck ranked #2 (BH & Discord Rainbow) with EM.  4551 thankyou very much.

I also trying adding a couple reflective shields as this deck is BRUTAL vs. SoW, but they didn't seem to help that much...too hard to find them in a deck this big.

I've been trying a bunch of other community recommended platinum decks as well...can't find anything that gets electrum faster yet...though Ralouf's 'The Gold League Killer V2.0' gets more spins (even vs. Platinum)...so depending on how you value a spin, it might be better.

This is really fun and effective at the same time! Works wonders vs SoSaC

I think some salvager and a quint to protect your phase shields from being destroyed might be useful?

I think some salvager and a quint to protect your phase shields from being destroyed might be useful?

Unfortunately, that probably wouldn't be too useful, since getting it destroyed even just for one turn may kill you anyway.

Hm... maybe. I just thought that having them destroyed early and immediately restored leaves the opponent with no PC in mid-to-late game. Also, you'd always be in a card advantage due to "indestructible" Mindgates and Hourglasses. However, I never played the deck and am very inexperienced with big decks So yeah, it was just an idea that came to mind

[Zarathustra1883]

Well, many decks will have Salvagers anyway, so you just copy yourself some of them then. 

[Max Fire]

This deck does NOT works.

[Zarathustra1883]

Erm, not to be crude but don´t you think that you should be a liiiittle bit more specific? Saying this deck does not work without telling how often you used it, what your problem was that had you loose often and maybe even suggest something to make it better is not helping to be honest. I modified the deck when I used it and I made quit some rare spins and  from it in Plat and beat some FG with it.

So I am not saying you are wrong not saying you are right, just that you could at least explain why you think that way.
