Information

This is my take on the current berserk metagame. This carried me from Diamond 2 into Masters this month. As the name implies, Momentum Builder is the centerpiece of this deck, and is one of the harder cards to deal with especially since it maintains its previous bonuses when brought back with Haunting Scream.

This deck generally wins by either setting up a large berserk combo with Rilgon's Disciple or by applying pressure with Kosul Battlemage or Momentum Builder. Any of these options can be brought back for a surprise finish with Haunting Scream. You also have lifesteal to keep you alive long enough to win and evasion in the form of Levitate and Thief's Pick to get your combos through.

This deck has been a blast to play and I hope it does well for you!

Did you test some other cards like Rapid Shot?

I included some cards that also might fit the deck and made this 7u-kEw5gkiI

Can u say anything to those card choices, wether they are good or not?

I have many 2-of's, cause I cant decide on many of them yet :D

No Rindra?

How much do you think the levitate nerf will impact this deck?
Glowstick Eternal Version: 1.37
I still think Levitate is a decent deal for the price, but in my current build I have removed Levitate for Strategize which digs a bit deeper in the deck and still triggers Rilgon's double damage ability.

Why not put a momentum in the market? And what's the usecase of hooru pacifier in it?

Great deck, really fun to play!
Glowstick Eternal Version: 1.37
As noted above you can't grab momentum from the market. I added hooru pacifier because I sometimes would find myself stuck with spell enhancers and no body. Pacifier is an efficient body, hoses certain strategies and the flying and overwhelm make it a good vehicle for pushing damage through.

Momentum has no faction, so can't be grabbed from the market by any of the merchants

why so much power? is there a reason?
Sisano Eternal Version: 1.37
If i have to guess the power is cuz you want to keep the crownwatch standart as a spell to combo with momentum builder. So in the end you still have like 26 power
Glowstick Eternal Version: 1.37
As Sisano mentioned, you would really prefer to keep crownwatch as a spell if possible. Extra power also can be used to fuel market discards. I don't usually find myself power flooded with this deck.
