My serendepity silver/platinum grinder

[Elvago]

I started with this deck: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/rainbow-decks/loufoquebow-(descendant-of-tha-gold-league-killer)(arena)/ and I've been adding / removing cards within games until I reach this:

I'm upgrading it as I win money grinding on silver. Is not the fastest deck i've played for grinding silver, but it have a high win rate. 13 wins 1 lose so far. Since I started adding and removing I can't say but I've spinned the wheel a lot =p. I don't think that this idea of deck can survive gold/platinum, maybe with other shards. I would maybe get in a few shards of braviness when I got em, not sure what to take out.

Also 4 wins and 1 lose in pvp2, but that is too slow for my taste right now.

I'm kinda new to the game, so any advices of how to improve it/balance are appreciated.

---- after a day of nonstop playing it I upped and modify it to this:

I've been upping it and modifying it, and now I'm grinding platinum with it =D with the final form I have 12 wins and 11 loses 2 skips. Not enough games to say that its 50%, but I've played it like 100 times on platinum while upping it and I can say It have more than 40%. I didnt actually thought it could but i've discovered that the card advantage that serendipity gives you normally let you stall the oponent until you get the card that defeat their strategy, purify agaisnt sacrificers, pulverizer against shielders and shard of freedom abusers, jade shield agaisnt mono aether. Sanct agaisnt nightmare decks if I'm lucky enough, but so far nightmare decks are my biggest weakness, normally the first 2 or 3 turns decide the game.

Also you get to know and use lot of synergies if you get lucky enough to drop em =p. I'd like to make this a 50 card deck, but i'm afraid to break the balance as it works in its current form.

Looks pretty cool...do you think you could do some official tests with platinum, and maybe do more like 50-100 games.    A lot of work, but if your deck is as good as you say it is (and it looks like a good deck) this could go be one of the top decks for platinum (top 5) if there is a 40% or higher percentage...

How do I make official tests? there is a way to record the results or something?

Tests aren't really "official", you just play 50-100 matches and note the ttw and the win rate, don't embellish, be truthful, post the results.

Similar to what inthisroom said, you should play 50-200 games, and you can record those games using this:
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/farming-studies-and-statistics/(1-32)-the-dictators-arena-statsheet

That spreadsheet not only makes the task easier, but gives a way to copy+paste in a pretty way to the forums. This is about as official as you get right now.
