    Zalader powerhouse

    This is a conceptual deck revolves around the ability damage of Zalader and Aural Battery. We got too many standard Zaldiscard in the current meta so why not try something new?

    Decklist: 41 cards

    Zalader

    4 Ironhide Karash
    3 Rampant Krygon
    3 Death Mage Thaddeus
    3 Brimstone Devourer
    3 Furrion Terror
    4 Shadow Font
    2 Interference
    4 Mind Control
    3 Shadowvein
    4 Aural Battery.
    4 Antimatter
    3 Redux Channel
    2 Soul Reaper

    Gameplan:
    Early game - rush the board with allies. The allies are with haste/ come-into-play abilities/ on-discard-abilities. They are there to eliminate opponent’s allies.
    Middle game - setup your electric powerhouse – Aural Battery. Pump Zalader ability with Shadow Font/Interference. Try to use Zal’s ability every turn. Expect some nice board control combining with MC. Your allies will also benefit from Aural Battery’s boost as they deal ability damages.
    Late game – Go solo. Soul Reaper for life boost and Shadowvein hits hero direct.

    Combo:
    Aural Battery + Redux Channel = Opponents deck manipulation + 4 direct damages
    Antimatter (discard allies) + Soul Reaper = Huge life boost

    Comments and suggestions please.

    Interesting, my only question is do you have enough draw power? With only four draw cards I'd imagine in about 25% of your games you will be card starved.

    Why 4 and not 3 (2 RC +1 AB)?

    Considering the buff in next batch, Stardust Extractor seems a good choice

    I think Redux was dealing 1dmg twice due to a bug in some previous versions. But the right and current effect is 2dmg, thus 3 with Aural Battery.

    Also I would consider Falseblood Cultist for additional draw / Brim discard.
    It looks an interesting deck to try

    Yes, that was a bug in a previous version. It says "takes damage equal to the number of cards moved".

    Sounds right!

    Yes, thanks for clarifying it. Figured I'd hop in to confirm.
