Information

Elysian Flyers utilizing The Throne Room card from Whispers of the Throne. Once The Room Room is played. Yeti Gryffyn Rider's and Acquisitive Crow's berserk ability makes Daraka, Queensguard easier to summon. Precision Plunge and Permafrost are for dealing with troublesome enemy units.

Thanks to APoorPerson for suggesting Cloudsnake Saddle. It accelerates dealing damage and also for Stormtamer's Mount to get that Aegis out to flyers faster. It's also effective when used on units with berserk like Yeti Gryffyn Rider and Acquisitive Crow. I removed Alluring Qirins because of that. It also has an upside that spells like Precision Plunge and Humbug Nest can be played faster because Alluring Qirin won't be increasing their power cost.

Hi there. Really liked this deck. Since the new cards came out, i had a go at editing the deck based on the new card Mother of Skies. Here's my list, still testing it. I'm pretty new to the game (only been playing over a month) but its doing well.

Hello, I'm glad you liked the deck. I haven't yet tested Mother of Skies yet, but sometime I will for sure. Nice deck you got there :) I see that you added Pteriax Hatchling because of it's synergy with Mother of Skies.

I've been playing the game a little bit longer than you (December last year). I've spent some to support the developers, but for sure it's one of the most free-to-play friendly games I've ever played. A player can even grind out a campaign, costing 25,000 gold, in Gauntlet if he/she wants to. So keep on enjoying the game :)

I've been running a more draw on hit deck with Linrei's Codex, Sodi's Spellshaper, and [SodiWingbreaker[/card]. I've really been enjoying the curve of Entrancer into Majestic Skies into Humbug Nest end of turn into Uelo,Sky Tactician. I'm surprised you're not running Daring Gryffyn. it protects your board reasonably well and I love putting the exalted weapon on an Acquisitive Crow.

My version of the deck is slower and grindier, but I can see how yours hits the ground running and blows the opponent out. I'm not sure which is better.

I've used Sodi's Spellshaper and Daring Gryffyn in the past and they work well. But I noticed that a lot of Elysian decks has removed them ever since the nerf. Sodi's Spellshaper used to be the primary removal of Elysian decks. I found that Precision Plunge and Permafost works enough in most cases. One of my favorite tactics is letting out Stormtamer's Mount that is invincible on the turn it's played, then applying Precision Plunge. That combo can take out almost almost any enemy unit.

For protection I tend to hasten the aegis by applying Cloudsnake Saddle on Stormtamer's Mount. If it was used on an ambush, then applying Cloudsnake Saddle on your turn, you can get the aegis very quickly.

How about calibrate?
gomiko Eternal Version: 1.51.2
I used Calibrate in the past with varying degrees of success. Sometimes it's a hit or miss. But given this deck has eight relics it might just work. Feel free to adjust it to your preference :)

I started playing expedition recently and liked how cheap ely flyers is to make. Since then, I've done pretty well with it. I cant tell you how many times I've used majestic skies to grab an ice sprite to secure a victory. I only run 2 sprites but I feel like it's an important card against other flying decks and dragons.
I also used edict of linrei as many many people are playing dragons and it helps slow the sacrifice deck.
Just a few suggestions
gomiko Edited Eternal Version: 1.51.2
Thanks for your suggestion! I also played quite a few vesions of Elysian Flyers and Ice Sprite can indeed be a game changer. Also tried out Edict of Linrei, though, it was on Dragon decks. That said I'll try to replace one or two Precision Plunges with Ice Sprites and see how it goes. This deck is listed as Throne, but I've been really testing decks on Gauntlet. It's downside is that we won't be likely adjusting it to the current meta that we'll be playing against. That's why suggestions like your are valuable :)
APoorPerson Eternal Version: 1.51.2
I love this deck already! I changed a few things though, you NEED saddle in there to buff your units early game and aggro them out I think.

Throne is a win more & flex card i think
gomiko Edited Eternal Version: 1.51.2
Thanks! I'm glad you appreciate it. Do you mean Cloudsnake Saddle? I'll try experimenting using it then. Feel free to post your own version :)

Credit goes to LocoPojo too. While I was watching his review of the new cards, he mentioned the synergy between berserk units and the new The Threonr card. The link to the video is:

Yeah I meant that I just couldnt think of the full name off the top of my head!
gomiko Edited Eternal Version: 1.51.2
Thanks for your suggestion. I now incorporated Cloudsnake Saddle into the deck :)
