I came up with this deck based on the prophylactic idea that opposition to Speed Poison in T50 in the form of multiple SoGs, which are heavily featured in both anti FG rainbows and RoL-Hope, could be removed by explosions. Currently using it to farm for SoR--it replaces my fractal elite charger and mono grav T50 grinders.

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
710 710 710 710 710 710 710 710 710 718 718 718 718 718 718 71a 71a 71a 71a 71a 71a 7dm 7dm 7dm 7dm 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 8po


Needless to say, this deck hardly ever EMs as it packs no regen or shields. It stands a better chance against the increasingly popular denial decks, especially fractal pests, than many T50 grinders because of the sheer cheap-ness of arsenics and deadly poisons. However, it utterly fails to decks like rainbow weenies and pillarless cremation lava destroyers. One of the other weaknesses of this deck is that excess  :death quanta often goes to waste, but due to the lack of card slots in the deck it is rather difficult to resolve this, unless one were to steer away from the pure speed poison strat--flesh recluses might be a good alternative, for example.

Quite sure this can be used for PvP as well, only thing is we rarely ever do see no restrictions tournaments these days.

Looks awesome. Flying Arsenics are just plain murder. ;)

Do you ever feel like you have too much :death quanta? I know that more pillars = faster start, but do you find yourself with too much :death quanta and nothing to do with it in mid-game? I would take out 2 Towers for 2 Explosions.

Great deck nevertheless. I find that Flying Arsenics can also hold its own against those annoying Hope Fractal decks that are all the rage in the T50 as well due to its poison damage.

I thought arsenics didn't poison if they didn't hit, though.

Since they deal 4 damage, they'll usually hit.
Would adding a plague do any good?

A plague would probably slow it down, its speed after all. but it also might alleviate some quanta, not so sure on that one
I decided to "drop" back in

Have you tried it with Steal instead of Explosions?

Granted it would be slower, however, you get the shard and the healing which results in a 10 point swing.

I've seen variations of this deck with Mark of Time and Precogs, to increase it's overall speed, though it is more vulnerable to defensive decks if it gets a bad start. I'm currently in the process of upgrading my six Arsenics for a Flying Weapon deck like this, so I'll have to experiment around. I'll definitely try this for sure.
