If by 'this silliness' you refer to this even then I quit by the same realization that you came to - there was no point in trying to compete. These events are for those who have nothing more to achieve and resources to burn. My deck is in the mid 2K... but growing. Actually, I have two decks (accounts). I started the second, my current, to make up for the mistakes I made the first time around. Now I progress methodically using spreadsheeds to keep track of my resources and anticipate how much I need to win the (normal) daily tournament. Today may be the day I get my 1-star temptress! I keep the first deck (account) active to 'test the waters' of these events. The rules don't reveal the details of gameplay so you just have to find out by doing. Very early I recognized that my weak deck could not hope to complete and I would do more long term harm to it. I'm still dabbling with my test deck. I have been trying to collect 40 common duplicates for over 24 hours (I'm 62.5% of the way there!) and I am hoping to complete the task before phase 3 takes everything far beyond my reach. I should mention that the challenge I have set for my own play is not to spend any real money.
