One thing I did was replace Jotun Hurler with Hailstorm definitely helped against aggro
Fistofsteal Eternal Version: 21.06.09
If aggro is your problem Hailstorm will help. I would personally cut two icaria, one flicker for 3 hailstorm. Huler has play against aggro with the snowball and the cards to pitch to your discard effects is key.
Osidan Edited Eternal Version: 21.06.09
Why no Xo(s)? Why no Know When to Hold 'Em? Mistveil Drake for face Aegis? Broken Contract? Lieutenant Relia? Savior of the Meekl?

Why no Eclipse Dragon? Why no Dragon Forge? Why Torch over Flash Fry / Vicious Overgrowth? No Pyrotech Explosion?

Why no Dazzle? At least you have Obstructive Flicker, like, finally. Long Live the Queen (warped from Garden of Omen?). Argo's Technique? I heard Mana Leak was good in Magic...

Very light on threats - Warcry 5 on what exactly? And then wait 10 turns to draw it? How about Celestial Omen? Linrei's Kiss? Finally, more Second Sight with Fate cards, card's busted in such decks! Draw 2, put back a Xo... Wisdom of the Elders is so 2016. I run 3-4 Re-Reads. it's no Turn Back Time, but that's what you do in a deck outisde of Time. TBT can get Sites, too... and there's no Regrowth in this game, in Justice. So yeah, I'd run Korovyat Palace, and probably Gates of Hope, too. (Rizhan likes spells, right? And Re-Read gets more option select!). I always run at least one Howling Peak and I like Inferno Den a lot, just as I like Hellfire Valkyrie (with Blitz Stone out? Blitz Stone probably my favourite card from Revelations! Also From Within, underrated). I'd run Tarra, Ever Loyal, I'd run Milos, Rebel Bomber. Hell, I'd run 4 Hojans with Bubble Shield. What about baby Icaria? Decent threat and best ramp option in these colors... turn 4 Harsh Rule? Also, Priviledge of Rank? With Forbidden Alchemy? Card's potentially much better than Honor of Claws when you discard like a Hurler and a Priviledge of Rank, that's a dfraw 5 for 4 netting you JJ and card selection. I would run more Relic Weapons, Stormhalt Knife (off Dragon Forge)? Auric Runehammer, anyone? Miner's Musket for an easy reduction on a high cost card and deal 2 for 2 is a good rate. Rakano Artisan? Relic Weapons with +5/+5 are brutal. Greatsword? Like Jawbone Greatsword and the other one. Massive Greatsword? Why no End of Hostilities / End of the Story (from the Tutor off Garden of Omens? Innate Conviction, very strong burn spell when warped for 3). Why no Tota Pioneer, one of the best ramp tools in Fire? Because, if you draw a Fate card, you instantly gain 2 power. If you tutor for something, it costs 2 less. Play it, leave Bubble Shield open (absolute must play 4 of in Justice/Primal, for me)... 1 cost Face Aegis (Azihdels' Gift, Exploit, Restrained Action, Royal Decree), save a guy? Very strong! You don't run Avigraft (also punished by Bubble Shield Face Aegis or Transpose). Punish 4 of ;Midrange players, like TTS does. Why no Ezuzi? 6/6 DD Invoke after Warcry 5 is no joke!) - or Blitrok (again absolutely busted with the Warcry 5, 6/8 Invoke with the option to ping and Invoke again?).

Finally, I'd totally run at least 1 of each Symbols and many more utility powers, like both Shugo Standard and Crownwatch Standard, as well as Granite Monument and Granite Waystone (card^s just way way too good) and tjhen Granite Coin, which is probably my favourite Onslaught Power... deal the final point of damage is HUGE, pop a face Aegis, a creature Aegis. Ankle Cutter likes Granite Coin, play a depleted power, ping a SST / baby Vara? Jawbone Greatsword deal 5, finish a SST with a Granite Coin? How do you like Combustion Brawler? Why do you not run Touch of Force for DD spells / units? As I usually do. I'd probably run Jarral and Kira, as well as Clodagh, although, yes, Kira and Jarral are probably the safe bet.

Solar Blast is a secret weapon for me... deal 7 to units and Sites? Potentially with Double Damage? Did you know that Solar Blast is good with Geminion? And then your stuff with Warcry 5 on it survives it? Easiest way to reach Mastery 100 ;-) That does it.

Last, but not least, I'd run Rime Conclave Smuggler, if you decide to up the creature count. 3/2 Aegis with Face Aegis and Market access for 3 is just... hard to beat in value. I also like Red Canyon Smuggler because, again, Double Damage is good with Warcry 5, but you do run a Primal Market at the moment. And yes, Skyward Seer is a good card to tutor for fliers (Icaria? Baby Icaria? Rizhan? - and then... maybe Westwind Herald?). I also like both Whispering Wind and Lightning Sprite, but I know, I'm taking this too far. I usually run a Winchest Merchant, because... it flies. So you can tutor for it with Skyward Seer. And I like Molot and Nakova... ;-) OK, have fun.

These are some suggestions. Looking for a response. Good day, Osidan

So I'll be honest here. I'm not sure where i'd start to reply to so many questions. Why don't you link you're list and I can compare the differences?
Splee Eternal Version: 21.06.09
All those why not add up to a completely different deck. They don't even have power in common.

It´s like a walk in the park climb ladder with this awsome deck.
Fistofsteal Eternal Version: 21.06.09
Glad you enjoyed the climb!
Ryuzaki Eternal Version: 21.06.09
Ah yes return of the classic "Rise up or be cut down!!!"
