Whats the fasted upped AI3 grinder with a really high EM% ?

[jmdt]

I haven't actually had the chance to try it, but does anyone know how well adrenalined staves would work against AI3?
I've heard good things about that deck

Great when they work.  However, infection and reverse time completely shut the deck down.

Try it with taking out one dragon and adding a long sword. I find that works better. I don't farm AI3 much but i'm 28-0 with 24 EM's so far with this version.

wouldn't two jade staves be better than a staff and a long sword?

Adrenalined staff decks work okay but this deck works much better. This deck virtually can't lose and will EM most of the time. Flying weapon decks have a lot of trouble with rewind and combined with adrenaline that means you won't have many other creatures if any. Also those decks are slower and very susceptible to other CC (infection). This card has so many cheap creatures (15) CC doesn't really affect it at all. Also the healing in the deck can't be blocked or stalled by shields or spells.

I thought of that but the 1 cost for the sword + 2 extra damage probably works better. This deck already has so much healing the extra damage seems better. Also i've had 4 games where i've started off with 1 tower and the long sword. The sword i think makes the deck much smoother in getting out early damage.

I have great success with both of these variants on a theme:

The first is a little quicker but actually EMs less often; the bottom is my main "I don't want to have to think right now" AI3 moneymaker.

I did more testing on speed and EM'ing and came up with this deck.  its pretty much the fastest deck you can make with a high EM chance.  It can win in 4 turns and has a 70% EM rate versus AI3.

Mono life is the best. Its almost like having hax and a cheat code. Though I do get sleepy after playing it for an hour, so I'm farming HBs now
