    Eladwen deck need criticism/suggestions

    This is my first deck since playing shadow era when playing MTG i use RDW (red deck wins) so eladwen rush comes second nature to me but after reading forums and experimenting a bit i've come up with this

    HERO
    1x eladwen frostmire

    CREATURES
    3x aldon the brave
    4x birgette skullborn
    4x puwen bloodhelm
    4x kristoffer wyld
    3x jasmine rosecult

    ABILITIES
    4x fireball
    4x lightning strike
    3x supernova
    4x retreat
    2x ley line nexus

    ARTIFACTS
    3x tome of knowlege
    2x dagger of unmaking


    this deck is not heavily reliable on card draw and runs out of gas about turn 7 or 8 so therefor i've been thinking on replacing tomes with bad santas

    also been thinking of adding sever ties somewhere in there

    If you want to replace Tome of knowledge because you run out of gaz around t7, why not play 4 Tome of knowledge AND 2-4 Bad santa ?

    Like I said the deck isn't reliant on card draw but I could try 3 bad santas and 2 tomes replacing the daggers or taking out 2 creatures thus giving that deck a little longevity in a match

    You have definitely overdone it with the 1 cost allies, I wouldn't put more then 6 of kris/birg. Mage decks thrive on lots of draw as it allows them to put the smack down on later turns with multiple burn cards. Pretty much you are going for early weenie rush into burn finisher which is most effective when using bad santas. I would up your research to 4 and put 3 bad santas in, taking out some one cost allies and either daggers/LLN or other allies.

    Birgette isn't really conducive to the RDW style of play.

    -4 birgette

    +1 tome of research
    +1 jasmine
    +2 aeon stormcaller
