Just to clear things up: I did not copy Elementalicious his sig. I convinced him of this as well, and he apologized for his somewhat rude PM. I also believe he did not copy mine, that's just what you get for using proverbs as a sig.
OT: about the Halfblood version I was trying to make: you need some control against AI5 to get a decent win-percentage. However, this deck, as much as I like it, just isn't the right starting point for AI5. It's not what the deck is about, as you point out.
