    Suggestions for Ghostmaker deck?

    I'm thinking of making a Ghostmaker deck and wanted to get some thoughts from you folks.

    I was thinking I could negate the disadvantage of ghostmaker a bit by choosing allies that would still be decent even with 1 health. Here is what I came up with...

    Magma Jackal - This guy kills opposing creature when he dies. So, low health isn't much of a drawback. He dies to most everthing anyway.
    Cobra Demon - You'll at least get one damage and poison in before he dies to an opponent ally.
    Dark Flayer - He all ready had 1 health. And his defender works pretty well.
    Rust Weevil - The counterpart to Magma Jackal. Should be in because weapons will be your biggest pita.
    Wulven Savage - Decks that struggle to deal with his ability at 2 health will still struggle with him at 1 health. Will give extra punch against weapon decks along with Weevil.

    (Death Bone and Molten Demon are possibilities but, didnt' seem to have the bang for the buck of the rest)

    Then I was thinking you could go one of two ways

    1 - Shard of Power and just try to be offensive
    or
    2 - Breastplate of Vitality and try to negate more of the downside of Ghostmaker.

    Seems to me that either or maybe even both in combination might be good. Not sure of the interaction. I think I prefer just using Shard of Power But, open to opinions.

    Then some draw. You could go a few different ways here. I hate giving my opponent cards so I'd probably choose antimatter. And since Ghostmaker is so vital to my strategy I might include a couple Master Smiths.

    Oh, and no elemental deck is complete without 4 mind control.

    So...

    1 - Zaldar

    Allies
    ----------------
    4 Rust Weevil (anti - weapon/armor)
    4 - Wulven Savage (anti-weapon/armor)
    4 - Dark Flayer (combo's well with Shard of power)
    4 - Magma Jackal (anti-creature)
    4 - Cobra Demon (combo's well with Shard of Power)

    Draw
    --------------
    4 - Antimatter
    2 - Sacrificial Lamb

    Utility
    ---------------
    4 - Mind Control
    4 - Shard of Power
    4 - Ghostmaker
    2 - Master Smith


    Well, what do you think? Any good?

    So you mentioned Magma Jackal but why not Deathbone for it? I know it's a little weaker but also does damage to a hero if he is killed

    As the dude said above, Deathbone should do it well in this deck.

    I think I may have to run 4 Shrieks just because how hosed I am from Evil Ascendant. Also finding that Karash and Shard of Power work well together. I'd like to squeeze 2 of them in there to give me 6 chances at a turn 2 drop.

    I've made something different with elementalis ghostmaker. Using Breastplate of Vitality and Bloodstained Marauder there.

    He must have meant zhanna?

    But, even so, I can't think of a cadre of human allies that would work as well at one health as the shadow ones.

    Elementalis works a little better with Ghostmaker than Zhanna, the only problem is that it looks more like a "fun" deck and not really competitive.

    Tried a few diffrent ways early in dp for a elementlis ghostmaker deck. Best bet is to add in some life infusions as well, survivability once ghost maker brings them back is the key.
