Speedy Lockeheart, Mission 204, dozens of failed ideas, and Fear?

[Hunter Hogan]

As of today, the best deck for this Achievement is extremely predictable.

 

The above deck is the best deck for many speedy missions, especially the later ones and especially when you must win by turn 9 (as opposed to 11, 13, or 15). I tried a ton of different ideas to improve it and none of them worked. If you want to try to improve this deck, I strongly recommend you look at the attached spreadsheet so that you don't waste your time repeating what I already tried.

I just earned the Achievement, so I will not be working on it anymore. I think I had six wins and two losses before I finally won and earned the Achievement. Walls are a major problem. 

Fear?

Another deck theme that often works in speedy Achievements is Tactical Infiltrator, but the posted versions for Speedy Lockeheart are terrible. I didn't spend any time working on this idea, but it might be possible to make a good deck by modifying the standard deck by leading with one of these cards.

1. Wasteland Skimmer
   
2. Stormrunner
   
3. Necrogeddon
   

This is the normal version:

 

Fear and Siege?

Next, since Walls often prevented me from winning within nine turns, it is logical that Siege could be useful. The following deck works on older speedy Achievements, but it has zero wins on this Achievement.

 

Nevertheless, the combination of Fear and Siege looks good to me, and it might have potential. I have not thought of any cards that would improve this deck, so if you attempt it, I wish you good luck!

Well, would an augment 1 commander be better than Tabitha?  Didn't investigate, just asking =)  Don't remember when augment was added, so it might not have been relevant for this achievement.
