Information

The 12 Strategize series is back again once more! This time we even removed out namesake card Strategize for its "more distant relatives" we got these few sets.

Deck Tips & Tricks
1. Master Archivist is good, you don't run out of Inscribe fodder to fuel it up and once you reach 2 power you never have to worry about missing power again. Play Master Archivist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2. Wump & Mizo is good, it plays snowballs. Play Wump & Mizo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3. Jarrall Ascending is good, it is a unit. Play Jarrall Ascending!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4. Master Conjurer is mediocre, it never activates. Play Master Conjurer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5. Eilyn, Battle Ready Queen protectss your units, you also draw cards. Play Eilyn, Battle Ready Queen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
6. No other units are good. Avoid playing out other units!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deck Philosophy
1. Master Archivist and Icy Scrying function similarly to Strategize in this deck but much stronger. Embrace the Archivist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2. Recent findings suggest strong 2-drops win the game. Play 2-drops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3. We impose a challenge to play the best faction pair we have out there, the Archivist + X faction pair. Deck power base much be a lot smoother than any 3-faction decks. Embrace the usefulness of Marks in our Elysian deck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4. Classify it as a Tempo Deck to trigger and misinform all EWC users. KIRA IS A TEMPO DECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Torgov is much better than Eilyn in here xD

That could be the case. I don't really want to test it right now but i tend to trust you for that. Or be creative and play Evolving Olzial.

I was always struggling to understand how to play this deck. It wins sometimes, ok, and even in a pretty silly ways. But for every stupid win there are two or more loses to unwinnable counters like lawmage, low amount of interactions and just drawing wrong half of a deck.

First, why do you play the game?
If you want to rank up, then please kindly try other more versatile decks, or those tagged Masters, or even post your own deck up to EWC for constructive criticisms.
In my opinion, I don't believe a deck needs to provide extrinsic rewards for it to be enjoyable. As you stated, the deck is capable of providing "silly and stupid ways" to win, and that is exactly the purpose of the deck. And that is what I ultimately ask for in the deck building and / or playing process.
In all of my decks posted, the serious / half-serious ones usually have [masters] or some sort of deck tech. (though usually incomplete) If you happen to come across more decks with this sarcastic tone in the deck description, please be well reminded that the only guarantee is that the deck functions somewhat sometimes and that the deck would be fun in one way or the other.[/masters]

So, first things first: if I happen to somehow insult or make you sad, my deepest apologies, I didn't mean it. I thank you for the deck like all the authors here, because I personally suck at deckbuilding like crazy. The only mod I consider myself below average is sealed format judging by my winrate at monthly events. So again, sorry if I said something wrong.
Turning to your comment, thx for clarifications. It made somewhat clear what to expect later. I didn't expect this deck to be good for Ranked so I tested it in Casual. My own concern with this deck is that even in case of winning with it I do not know why do I win xD And when losing, I can't understand what did go wrong. This leads to another problems like whether play some core cards like Archivist, Jarrel or Wump or wait for them to be covered with counterspell or Aegis, what hands should I mulligan etc. I see this archetype here on site quite regularly, I'm curious with it but didn't understand strategies or good/bad matchups.

Sorry if the previous comment is a bit too harsh. I would first say this deck is a combination of traditional Elysian Spells and the cardboard abuse decks, but lies a bit closer to the traditional Elysian decks. It can be a good practice to familiarize yourself with the original deck first.
Try to search for gameplay videos of old Ely builds or maybe deck techs. Then netdeck some recent builds.
