Aha! It took me several minutes to spot the problem.

For the challenge, while you are using an EDH-like deck, you are NOT actually supposed to include the EDH card or 5 of a general. You do that once you unlock the EDH card (by beating this challenge!) and want to play EDH games, which occur outside challenge mode by using the EDH card and 5 of your general as you tried to do here. So the reason your deck isn't working is because you have 5x Sliver Queen and a locked EDH card :p

Also, I'm not 100% sure, but I don't know if you can use duplicates of basic land for this challenge (I see you have 2 of each) but that one's easy to fix with alpha duals or other ones if you used them all up.

edit: oh, seems I didn't read your post properly... says you tried that. I have to ask... are you sure? If you are, maybe your deck got too small after cutting them?

[t0xica]

Thanks, i re-edited the deck taking out the duals, and setting the cards to 101 instead of 100 like i did before (not sure if that was the problem) and its working!

[porphyre]

Ok, I beat this one and now have the Archenemy card for all my Challenge games. Great. However, all I can do is click it for a random scheme (practically worthless b/c it's random). I don't have 40 lives. What gives?

[stassy]

This supposed to be like that so it is not overpowered, like the scorpion for the enchanted challenge, it just help you a bit.
