The ShiftstonedEternal Power Calculator is a deck-building tool that visualizes your odds of drawing enough Influence and Power based specifically on the cards found in your deck.
Reunite is way cheaper than farm, and in this deck your ability to overpower your opponent is greatly dependant on how fast you ramp into the strangers. Furthermore, you defend the farm very poorly so the additional value only happens against very reactive decks
I find a xenan obelisk in the market a good thing, since we have so many small units, it can be good at 8 power to be overwhelming them. Just a thought.
Plus, reducing Makkar Stranger to 4/3 doesn't really hurt it that much. The ability it offers to kill a non stranger unit before it deals any damage is just awesome.
The killer cards seem like they make this archetype go from mopey mid-range to awesome. To me, the 1cc on instinct made me quickly move to a 4/1 split with initiation. Especially since Grodov's let's you cast it off its summon trigger. Any changes you would make?
For sure that's an understandable change, the reasoning of the 3/2 split was that Instinct is a really bad card without the strangers, so I wanted some killer effects that does something on the early game
The ramp it provides is random and needs him to attack, so it both can be stonewalled by a 3/3 and doesn't let you plan ahead, so in my opinion it's much worse than 2-mana dork.
