Tarms Edited Eternal Version: 1.31.6
I love your deck! I just hit d1 with it ty!! What cards r u gunna cut for the 4 svets?
Werewolf Eternal Version: 1.31.6
77 cards?
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31.6
Yeah I like to live dangerously :P
Tarms Eternal Version: 1.31.6
With the 77 cards though it says u r no longer playing 1/3 min power, did u add to the power base?
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31.6
I already changed it to 75 cards, it's really hard to cut stuff but I got rid of 1 Amilli and 1 Hailstorm for now.
JohnY Eternal Version: 1.31.6
Any idea about replacing Siraf? I only have two.. or what can be the other two cards?
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31.6
Maybe Copperhall Elite or Nostrix if you're greedy. But with Copperhall you'd want a 3rd copy of Evolution because he's kinda useless without flying.
AirHater Edited Eternal Version: 1.31.6
seems rly good, but what the point about Find the Way? looks like having second Infinite Hourglass or 3rd Xenan Obelisk just better and why no Copperhall Elite?
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31.6
Find the way guarantees you get all the power you need and it helps enable Kothon, Siraf and tier 2 Obelisk. You can try 2nd hourglass I guess. I don't like Elites because they just do nothing most of the time and Stand Together is a bit wasted on them. 3rd obelisk is good if you don't face a lot of aggro but I had to remove it.

My Thanks to the author of this deck, been having no luck with ladder with the current meta, so far this deck had 80% win rate for me, I did swap the hailstorm for permafrost instead, and had save me a lot of games against mid range like praxis, had not made master yet but on my way already, from gold 4 to diamond 2.
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31
Glad you like it. The core is really consistent and swapping a few cards here and there is always advisable to counter whatever you face the most. I'll keep hailstorm, it's won me a lot of games, it's great in mirror too.

Err gold 3 lol
BadBug Eternal Version: 1.31
Thanks for sharing !
The deck is great but can you please add short guide/tips to use it in the best way possible ? :)
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31
It's pretty straightfoward. You want Kothon, Pacifier, Commando, Siraf, Valkyrie and lightning in your opening hand and at least 3 power. Next step is to have at least 2 of them stick on board. Then bait removal, counter with Stand together and kill them in 3 turns. It's important to check at the end of turn if they hold torch. If they do you can't play Kothon or Commando because it's a waste unless you have another one. And if you have obelisk in hand it's better to skip turn 3, play obelisk and then turn 5 Commando for example. Also depending on what decks you face you might need a 4th lightning and even 2 hailstorms.
BadBug Eternal Version: 1.31
Thanks for the tips !
BTW why you choose lightning storm and not hail storm ?
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31
Lightning is cheaper and needs 1 less influence. Also your 2/3s can survive it. But if I face more opponents like this I'll definitely put in hailstorms.

Just for you :)

Although I made some changes to improve aggro matchups, I dropped to rank 55 before winning 6 in a row.
Wok Eternal Version: 1.31
Good job! 😉
Gaze73 Eternal Version: 1.31
Wow really? I got 2 losses since posting, sue me. One was a disconnect and the other was a guy with 2 gearcrunchers. Grenadins are a pretty tough since we have zero sweepers. Also tomorrow I'll be testing 4 Sirafs for more late game steam and as solid early blockers. Students are just torch magnets 80% of the time which diminishes their value greatly.

I for one appreciate you sharing what looks to be a fun deck, regardless of where you happen to be in the rankings at the moment. :P As if that was in any way relevant... yikes.
