Information

CURRENT RANK: Diamond III

This is a budget ladder deck.

The main game play is to draw as many cards as possible with Gorgon Fanatic and Wisdom of the Elders, while using Haunting Scream and Dark Return to combat removals. If your units are targeted by any kind of Silence effect, use Devour on them to prevent them being silenced, then draw them back with Sleeping Draught.

Fill your board with beasts summoned by Direwood Beastcaller and remove all the opponent units to win.

Normal removals actually help you populate your void, and board wipe like Harsh Rule can't keep you down for more than a single turn.

Special trick with Madness: use madness on the big unit like Tavrod, Auric Broker or Inquisitor Makto, then sacrifice them with Devour and draw them back from your void

Pros:
- Extremely good against control type decks
- Good against mid range deck (Argenport)
- Good sustain and removals
- Many kinds of plays

Cons:
- Can be mana screwed, careful with opening hand, aim for at least 3 power
- Weak against aegis aggro decks that can dodge removal
- Weak against heavy revenge deck due to no silence, but manageable unless opponent has god draw

UPDATE:
- Removed Herald's Song and Sporefolk. I understand that many can play on their discards, but most of the time those are just dead cards on my hand. Thanks to recent rank up I am able to add more Madness and Piercing Grief instead
- Removed Vara, Fate-Touched and West-Wind Herald, too slow for my taste. Added Vara's Favor to ensure sigil consistency as well as popping those annoying aegis

I happened to have 2 Champion of Cunnings and 1 Impending Doom. Should I replace them with piercing griefs or wisdom of the elders?
thailehuy Eternal Version: 1.29
You can keep Champion of Cunning because it is resistant to removal. I wouldn't keep Impending Doom. Piercing Grief is very important as it provides you health as well as a delayed extra card

Good Cheap Deck, very few creatures tough, but what's the deal with the last change? 3 Vara's Favor for 3 good cards? (The only flying creature too)
i'll skip that change and also i remove 1 Wisdom of the Elders for 1 Shadowlands Feaster.

Vara is only good to use with Sporefolk and Grasp, without those Vara is very slow. I don't have Grasp yet. Westwind Herald is too situational, I want something a bit more consistent. Same for Shadowland

Flying isn't necessary because Haunting scream give your creatures flying. If anything I would use Blacksky Harbinger, but then again, don't have it yet
