United Ythan(d)

Yes the name is a terrible pun but the deck seems to work well enough (probably low 300s if I were to play it enough for my rating to settle but it brought me from 311 - 317)

The idea of this deck is to take early board and than have allies pump each other's damage. One of the few non-rush decks I run 4x Aldon

.

Deck list

Cards: 43

Hero: Ythan

Allies: 34
4x CoI
2x Twighlight Opportunist
1x Layarian Diplomat

(Can be switched for another Opportunist, but I like having a LD in case of Brax)
4x Aldon

3x Spirit Warden

(Can be switched for a different 3 drop of your choice)
3x Seductress
2x SoE
3x Fortified Wisp

2x Erika

(Was Raven

before Halalboy's suggestion)
3x Thunderstike Construct
2x Viska

2x Eriss

(Feel free to run Aeon

or Gunther

here. I chose Eriss

for the 5 attack but the ally buffs the others provide is helpful too)
3x Nathanias

Abilities: 8
3x Hunter's Gambit

3x Treasured Heirloom

2x ALR

For 5cc allies maybe u can consider Erika

. the stealth helps against rouges, warriors and wulven. And more layarian diplomat! some decks with hard to kill allies can kill this deck like Darkrath. Played a ythan with the same idea.

Actually like the idea a lot. I think I will try her over Raven

Regarding LD should I just run it over opportunist altogether? The problem is I can't really afford to not take early board

Nice Video. A lot of Ythans seem to run Surprise Attack

; it has the potential to draw more than 2 cards if your ally survives the opponents turn. Cant decide if I prefer it over Heirloom, cause the attack boost is also nice..

Without bobcat I think surprise attack is more cute than actually helpful because it does little to help your board position. If you run Bobcat then it has a lot of late game value.

If I were to do that than also replace a few 2 drops with snare trap or PA

no u need the 2cc allies. without a t2 drop its hard. maybe drop one of the fatties that u find urself sacrificing most every game. 2 LD is good enuf

That would mean -1 Nath +1 LD. Not sure how comfortable I am with this one. On one hand LD win games when is comes at the right time, but Nath wins games too and I feel like it happens more often.

PS.
I tried Erika

she works really well. So thank you for that suggestion.
