Information

Credit to Imzebob for the Dumping Ground + Eilyn, the Rising Storm + Ancient Excavator infinite combo Eilyn's Ground part 3.
Can be activated at 10 power but Ideally at 14 so you can play Dumping Ground and use the ultimate on the same turn.


Early game you discard any 8 drops, echo spells and relics if you have Ancient Excavator in hand, using any of the discard options available (including Torgov, Icecap Trader + Savagery.)


Midgame Use Grasping at Shadows to get any of the Big Threats on board. Can be combo'd at six power with Savagery for instant and future value when recurred.

Late Game use Dark Return's to return the Big Threats, and look for the Dumping Ground combo to close out the game. (Savagery on Eilyn is Best for the combo but any card will do)

Did you play the original deck? and if so what makes cheating out power easier with relics over mask plus lifegain?
BillCosbatron Eternal Version: 1.43
I played it for a while but the only life gain was if a minion stuck on the board for a turn, it didn't happen very often which led to me changing the minions for ones that work better with mask, E.g Temple scribe, Ayan the abductor etc. The deck was still too slow at cheating out big minions for it to be relevant so I cut lifegain completely and it helped a lot.

Mask of Torment is much better for hitting the 14 power for the combo but Eternity Core and Power stone get the 8 drops much more reliably on turn 5 which is more important in most matchups in my opinion.

Working on a deck that mixes the eilyn + dumping ground concept with a revised Going infinite
concept and i wondered if youd be interested in being part of my madness, after all second opinion dont hurt...

How does this deck do on the ladder ??
I still need all Eilyn, and dont want to craft them before i find a deck for them.
BillCosbatron Eternal Version: 1.43
Decent on ladder, wouldn't craft Eilyn specifically for this list though.
