    3.52 Haste Zhanna

    Hero: Zhanna Mist

    Allies (22):
    2x Kristoffer Wyld
    3x Aldon the Brave
    4x Fleet-footed Messenger
    4x Devoted Knight
    3x Tainted Oracle
    2x Viska, The Scarlet Blade
    3x Darklight Timelord
    1x Kion the Magnificent

    Abilities (11):
    3x Retreat!
    1x Sinkhole
    3x Focused Prayer
    4x Tidal Wave

    Items (7):
    4x Wizent's Staff
    3x The King's Pride

    = 41 cards ~ 18130g

    3.52 gave us an awesome addition to haste decks: Timelord. Not only does he have haste but he solves one of previous problems human haste based deck had: their allies are kinda weak without attack buffers already on board. Now with clever sacrificing choices you can plan your turns much more strategically. For example: Got a Kris in opening hand? a 1/1 does very little for this deck, but a 4/2 becomes 1cc fireball with a body. So you sac it early on, planning to get it back via Timelord once you have The King's Pride and Aldon set up. Since this set up is very important to win the game I prefer to go as low as possible with card count to draw these key cards as soon as possible.
    Gameplan is pretty straightforward for the most part. Ramp with Devoted Knight. Set up draw. Control the board with Waves and Retreats until you play The Kings Pride and/or Aldon and then you switch into beatdown style deck with 4+attack allies with haste. As mentioned with Kris example early, sacrifices are very important. Always sacrifice a card having in mind that you will get that card back later on with Timelord.
    Sinkhole and Kion are tech card for QM. Sinkhole deals with annoying location and helps with early game. Kion for occasional Moonstalker, Stallvox and ITF Gwen.

    Gotta try it at qm, but dont you think that your draw is poor, by having options only from t4 on?

    4 Wizents, 3 TO in 40 card is too few? And later on Timelord and even FFM as pseudo draw.

    Not really. If I draw Wizent's Staff by t4 I feel pretty good. If you are wondering why no Chalice which is the only early draw option, I opted not to run it since I would not have SE for Timelord later on. Devoted Knight goes onto resources so he kinda counts as extra draw since it makes sacrificing easier. From T4 onward Wizent's Staff can draw you twice as much cards as Chalice.

    Because I want to save SE for Timelord and chalice uses up all your SE before Timelord turns. Early sacrifices are very important for this deck as you can sac Kings Pride and other late game cards you then want to retrieve late game via Timelord.
