Speedbowj33 - SBJ33 - AI3 Speed Grinder

[kirchj33]

As a person who gained street cred in this game from posting solid decks, I became known mostly for being able to develop good rainbows under the tutelage of jmdt.  From the looks of the ttw study (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,17173.0.html), the archives are lacking a real fast non-immo speedbow, or at least one without a few dead cards for the purposes of that study.  As a newly appointed master, I felt it was my duty to develop a rainbow that goes hard.  The goal was to make one which posted at sub-6 ttw.  I also worked on making an earth rush and light rush (one to celebrate my new mastership, one to honor my former team).  I found that earth was already covered, as I couldn't make anything that was quicker than - this (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=10968.0) by BloodlinE213.  I did post a mono light, which is just a modification of Terro's previously posted mono, and it can be found - here (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,30707.0.html).
I figured I've posted enough solid decks now that I should make one with a lulzy egotistical name by now.  Also, it's probably about the 33rd solid speedbow posted on these forums, so it's aptly named.
TL;DR version: I made a QT-based speedbow, and its fast.

4 ttw's are possible and expected, I just didn't get any in the 50 games I tested.

How many games exactly would you estimate that you found yourself coming up 1-10 damage short of winning by the end of the turn?

2 or 3 if I had to guess.  I messed around with several different builds/tests before settling on this one.  What's your suggestion?

-1 QT, +1...something.  Another Frog and another Precog came to my mind first, but hell, something as abstract as Nightmare might work as well.  I won't recommend PC since it's not going to be very useful unless you have at least 2 sources.

-1 QT, +1 Precog was 6.0273 through 50 games.

-1 QT, +1 Nightmare was 6.0408 through 50 games.

It seemed to leave the deck JUST quanta starved enough that the 6th QT was beneficial.  I also tried dual LS versions which were slower regardless of 5 or 6 QTs, kind of surprising to me.  Hadn't thought of trying a 3rd frog though.  It might be worth looking into.

i would go -1 destroyer +2 MP, just cause i like mah 31 carders

Just got a 4 ttw with the OP deck with turn 2 :  LD + graboid + charger + CP > +5 attack  then I drew pegasi and crawler

[mrtwigie01]

i find this deck better with +1 black hole and -1 pegasus for +1 crusader

[AnimationX]

Seems you need a lot of air quanta in order to dive wrym and pegasus...maybe swap in a UG for wrym?

It's not very common that both of those cards will be drawn simultaneously, so I've never considered it that prominent of an issue.  And then there's the fact that Wyrms deal insane amounts of damage depending on the amount of attack Chaos Powers give you, meaning that UG would slow the deck down on some occasions.

how would -1 cp +1werewolf be? it's a consistent 6 damage if you get it out compared to the 1-6 randomness

[ralouf]

It's slower and lycan can't boost wyrm or pegasus. Moreover the bonus is between 1-5 but if you play this on a diving creature it become 2-10. way more interesting no ?
