Help my anti-mage Amber deck!

By the way, if you are reading this, also play a anti-mage deck, because the more people play anti-mage decks, more mage players will change their decks

replace longsword with DR.
DR is the anti-mage weapon

btw i don't think eladwen dominate the meta, in fact majiya is stronger in my opinion. (because of SOV)

Yesterday you were telling people to play Eladwen

.

For my anti-mage decks I have 4x Dimension Rippers, 4x Reserve weapons, and 4x Jewlers Dreams, depending on the deck i would lower it down to 3 each.
Dimension Rippers- Take those pesky mage burn cards.
Jewlers Dreams- Resource acceleration and when pumped up with Reserve weapon also does 4 damage.
Reserve Weapons- Bring those weapons back plus it's add's extra damage. who can argue with that.

The only downside to adding DR is that they get your cards, but plus side usually they just resource the card they get anyways because it doesn't fit into their normally stradegy, also I typically scrap the card they give me/ Depending on what it is, and what I need.

I'm going to be posting my Amber Rain

deck within the week and it works well for killing those pesky mages.
Also the very first deck I bought with shadowcrystals was a shadow mage deck because I thought Gravebone

was awesome!and that was back in 1.25.

I would switch Enrage

for Rampage for one, especially if you go to Dimension Ripper, which I would also recommend although you don't need to remove all Rusty Longsword. Fewer weapons and more Reserve Weapon and Lily

can also work.

3x Smashing Blow

2x Enrage

4x Crippling Blow

4x Blood Frenzy

4x Retreat!

4x Jeweler's Dream

3x Rusty Longsword

Please help me counter Eladwen

, it is dominating the meta and it's very boring to always play against the same hero. My rating is 270 and 30% of matches I play are against Eladwen

, 15% against Majiya

.

Ehm... Dominating the meta my ass.

Bad:

Rusty Longsword

4x Aldon

No PoL
Smashing Blow

No other draw than BF - Seriously, it's an aggro deck, you need to get cards.

If you want to build an aggro deck, you shouldn't give half a fuck about any equipment Elad may throw at you. Snow Sapphire

might screw you over but if the Elad uses that, it's a bad deck in most cases(unless it's a stall).

Dimension Ripper

isn't necessary and it probably will only slow you down as you prefer JD in 100% of the cases(unless you RW a 5 attack DR).

PoL screws Elad over completely if you time the casts right. It heals you and delays the freeze. PoL is probably one of the best aggro cards in the game.

4x Aldon

is too much. If you draw a double, you are pretty screwed and dependant on topdecks. Go 3 max.

I personally don't like Enrage

when I play fast decks. I intend on killing them, not outlasting them. However it is a counter-Elad deck so eh.

Sandworms are always nice to use since they survive a lot of mage abilities(even Supernova!). You would have to capitilize on their defense and bolster their offense though.
