Information

So..this deck got me to masters. Feel free to tamper with anything you feel like it.Rain of frog is an MVP in this deck as it wins the mirror if you hit Icaria but also reduces the fuel some decks have(Sword of Unity,Sandstorm Titan,Merchants etc).
Yes,only 1 Auric Runehammer,mostly used with Rise to the Challenge

Generally positive W/R vs agro,Great vs Control,Pretty equal vs Tempo,but usually beats greed piles.

Rain and the big amount of choices in general might make the deck quite hard to pilot,so expect an even harder learning curve with this version.GLHF

Edit 1: So i added a "sideboard" with cards that i experimented with and kinda raised my WR a bit but it could be because of current meta. So,the idea was to make the deck a bit more resilient to Suffocateand Torch and less prone to Vanquish and In Cold Blood

The change was -3Valkyrie Enforcer +3 Crimson Firemaw aswell as Nostrix, Lord of Visions for an actual threat in the Market for Eilyn's Choice (although honestly in this meta Vision of Austerity is bad because Kennadins will wait till they can play 2 together,where Rain of Frogs is better and the only problems are sky sword and obelisk but it CAN autowin you games so i did keep it in).

Also,i saw some people pilot this list,please consider Rise to the Challenge into Jennev Merchant as a play vs Control for rain ( or even Nostrix if you think its valuable)

Edit 2: So turns out feln berserker is a deck,and it seems a matchup even worse than Xenan Killers. Decided to add 2 Shelterwing Rider and remove the Crimson Firemaw to increase our survivability while still pushing some tempo,the card is infinitely better vs agro,and since the whole torch-proof setup is gone,i decided to add some Whirling Duo. Added a Wanted Poster to increase consistency in the deck. I cut 3 Vanquishfor that and the reasoning is...well you need to do your plays in turn 6-7 and wasting 2 mana vs a deck that probably has a lot of gas in hand makes it pointless(especially vs Dawnwalker)...plus the card is pretty much dead vs Agro,feel free to remove the 4th for another copy of Whirling Duo. Am currently testing with a copy of End of the Storyinstead of 1 Rise to the Challengebut i would say this is the most meta reliant card in the deck. Feel free to replace it with anything you think is important to have in the meta you are facing.
The result is a deck with significantly higher win rate and turns the feln berserk matchup into one you actually win most of the time.
I strongly recommend updating to the final version.
