    Feedback requested on my planned deck (Gwenneth)

    Hello,

    I've been playing for a few days and plan to buy some shadow crystals to improve my gwen deck. This deck is based on my ideas from the game in those few days and a bit of reading/thinking about stuff on the forum. Please give some advice.

    Gwenneth
    4x Puwen
    3x Aldon
    4x Jasmine
    3x Lily
    3x Tainted oracle
    2x aeon
    2x armored sandworm

    4x retreat
    2x bad santa
    3x in to the forest

    4x soul seeker
    2x katar
    3x rapid fire
    3x wrath of the forest
    42 cards +gwen

    Am I adding too much drawing power I don't have a lot in it now, and seems like I need more, but this much?
    Should I also add Priests of the Lights to delay that first enemy hero ability by a turn? I'm now leaning to 4 jasmine since I now get beaten a lot by people running sandworms, which are rather hard to kill with my bows, so I'd just like to keep those occupied.

    I've decided not to add traps since that will require a lot more careful planning to ensure lily returns a weapon, not a trap.
    I plan to add the sandworms and eaon to also have some strong cards if all my bows get destroyed or to just spend resources while I still have a bow in play and I don't need to play another one, since most other cards are low in resources.

    I'm adding wrath of the forest as a turn four option, since I plan to drop a bow + gwen's abilty the fifth turn, giving him only one turn to whack at it freely, while if he starts whacking it later, atleast his creatures take quite a bit of damage due to the 5th turn ability use, does this sound reasonable? And if it gets destroyed, one less removal for weapons.

    Would 6 weapons be enough? Or is adding another katar a good option? One more rapid fire, not sure how much attachment removal is played.

    All feedback/comments appreciated.

    Hey , I don't think you need 3 TO , enjoy using WOTF and BS , it's enough .

    Katar is a very fun card to use with gwenneth !

    Overall your deck looks fine

    I would probably get rid of BS and stick with the 40 cards you have left. Or you can add 2 death traps if you like 42 cards.

    Care to summarize if you could? Now we're all curious

    What time are you guys on IRC anyway? Whenever I hop online in the CET evenings I mostly see Keith and a bunch of folks I don't know

    I have forgotten. I remember he said to with this deck is wasting time tho, and lily is a waste also.

    Keiths always on irc!

    Good deck. I would lose the TO's and Lilys as mentioned. Add 1 more katar and wotf.

    Just a thought, I know taking out the TO is good, but wouldn't having maybe even 2x Lilly be good to help bring the soul seekers back from graveyard or is it by adding katar x3 you wouldn't necessarily need to bring it back?

    Question: why not use the TOs and drop the Bad Santas? In my opinion, TO is better, especially in inexperienced hands.

    Funny, I'd recommend going the other way, dropping WotF entirely and maxing Bad Santa and TO.

    That's just how I run my Gwen and it works VERY well. I used to use WotF instead of BS and I found I was always running out of cards.
