Being somewhat of a n00b myself, I started with a Fire w Lava Golem rush deck which worked really well but had limited success on T50 & higher. I came across ScaredGirl's (almost) unupped rainbow (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,1615.0.html) and thought it looked great.

The problem for n00bs, as you know, is that it can take a long time to grind up to be able to upgrade several cards. I decided to try a few mods of her deck and found this one to work great so far for me on T50 (limited success on HBs) need more upped cards for HB/FG.

One other issue for me was that I didn't have Eternity which would be required for a deck like this that can deck out so I swapped in a couple reverse times which has helped me avoid decking out so far. Would still recommend u get Eternity.

Extra steal and deflag added to help remove shields, etc... and is handy if they happen to have an Eternity themselves

I don't have any stats to share so you'll have to take my word for it, but it is working great for me so far. I have scored several EMs as well because the deck heals you so well w the Empathic Bonds.

Strategy:

Use Sundials and Hourglasses early and often to get your best cards playable.
Depending on the opponent, choose which of your three "attackers" to protect with Quint. and only play the cards when you can use Quint on them.
Get the boneyard out and protect it so you get lots of Skeletons to mutate.
Save your rain of fire until necessary (don't waste on one or two cards).
Kill/Mutate anything that can give immortality immediately. (Anubis)
Steal/kill/destroy anything that can "destroy" ASAP.
If they have a dragon or other strong creature, mutate it (will likely become abomination) then eat with Otyugh.
Do not use your Reverse Times on their cards unless you ABSOLUTELY have to. Use them to put Skeletons or fireflies back into deck.

Embarrassing loss for T50 "theonlyrealbeef"


Near deck out:

this deck is WAY to big, t50 is most of the time about speed....
btw not cool to kill beef that way .

[3RIFECI]

I'll certainly agree on speed as this deck is weak against a fully upped Shrieker rush deck but haven't had many other issues with it.

almost every rush can kill this...

[3RIFECI]

That may be, but I haven't had issue yet on T50 aside from Shrieker rush. I'm 0/2 against that one. I just can't handle burrowed cards w this deck.

Wow, this beat a farm 

How could you get in T50 with such crappy decks TORB? 

[3RIFECI]

wow... You're a critical bunch here. lol

1. I said I'm a n00b (<-- disclaimer)
2. If there are farm decks, then ok this deck works w T50 (as stated)
3. I'm just posting what deck is working for me.
4. As for speed: creature control, steals, sundials and hourglasses seem to make up for it for me by both speeding me up and slowing them down.
5. Never said this deck was good for anything but T50 (not pvp, HB, FG, etc... as I haven't tested it there yet.)

Another EM win on Phenix0013:

You sure those you won against aren't farms? Also...you want speed and a little control. Not control and a little speed.

[3RIFECI]

Not saying they aren't farms, I'm not even an expert on the matter, just saying this deck is winning and earning $/cards. I wasn't having much success on T50 until I tried this.

This is just meant as info for any new ppl looking to earn on T50. Are there betters decks? I'm sure there are.

You Pros are likely farming FGs not T50s so this info wouldn't really be for you anyway I'm trying to build this into a FG deck based on ScaredGirl's deck by earning on T50.

Most "Pro's" come back at the AI3/T50 as it will give you the more score and more rarezyes.

[3RIFECI]

cool didn't know that, thanks!

Anyway, I'm sorry if my deck offends ppl lol... I thought sharing a deck you had success with was the point. I've yet to lose on T50 with it aside from that one shrieker rush deck (twice).

The deck itself is nice, the problem is that you shouldn't count win from farms, as most of them were made for you to lose. Also, most of the decks in T50 are Rush/EM, or both combined, which > this deck.
