Scorpion Control

[Duffy]

This is the deck i use for grinding arena gold. It's a pretty big deck, but one of the most common ways of losing with it is still drawing yourself out, as you can draw a lot of cards with sundials and hourglasses.

The only decks i have big problems with are the mono aether with shard of wisdom and to some extent the shard of freedom decks (if i can't draw into the pulverizer quickly).

The basic idea is to win with the Dune Scorpion poison applied with Unstoppable, meaning you can ignore all shields and creature removal, as you only need to hit them once.

The deck is quite slow, but it will consistently win 3 matches in a row, netting you an upgraded weapon/shard spin. And it often wins with full hp giving about 250 electrum.

I think that the stall with Sundial + SoSac in SPlat is more effective than dimensional shields. Also, the SoD makes you win with much higher HP, what gives you a bunch more of  per win.

So, do you use it in Gold arena?

[Duffy]

SoSac drains all my non-death quanta, so that's a no go.

And yeah i farm gold arena with it. And sometimes platinum
