My Eladwen. 30 cards cookie cutter. It's basically Majiya with less draw and better allies. It's pretty good in quickmatch, but I haven't played Eladwen very much against good players. I wouldn't recommend it for 40 cards though, as it really hurts your chances of drawing burn. I haven't play tested against many good players yet though. I have beaten GondorianDotCom (GDC) once in 1.26. I have also beaten Jiminee once (it was a surprise because he is using Gwen). This deck is very fun to play, and a lot more interesting than Majiya. Well, my deck list is:
Eladwen
3 Puwen
3 Jasmine
3 Aldon
2 Aeon/Raven
4 Fireball
4 Lightning Strike
3 Supernova
3 Research
1 Poison Gas
1 Engulfing Flames
2 Snow Sapphire
30 cards
Tested and proven. If you don't have a good win rate, you're playing it wrong. It does have trouble with Majiya though.
Fire Snakes are high in Vitamin D.

I'm testing this:
Eladwen
4x Blake
4x Puwen
3x Aldon
2x Jasmine
4x Fireball
4x Lightning Strike
3x Supernova
3x Bazaar
2x Snow Sapphire
Strategy: go as fast as you can for early damage, control the board with Strike/Fireball and don't waste cards for too many resources because you can't draw a lot so treat your spells like gold.
Why Bazaar and not Research? Because you don't have to pay every turn so you need less resources to play the same cards. DON'T PLAY IT EARLY. When you run out of cards and your opponent is low with life it helps a lot to draw the final burn spells. It can be gold even after a Tidal Wave when you need allies to establish board control again.
I'm not really sure about Supernova: 5 damage is a lot and can be a great finisher, but most of the time I sac it because it is counterproductive to deck strategy. I'd need another burn spell, but Special Delivery looks too weak.
An option could be -3 supernova +2 Jasmine +1 Snow Sapphire... I'll try as soon as I have gold to buy these missing cards
My ally-less Eladwen that lost me round 2 of the T1 tournament to a Boris:
Damage Dealers (13):
4 Fireball
4 Lightning Strike
1 Poison Gas
1 Engulfing Flames
2 Supernova
1 Special Delivery
Defenders (15):
4 Retreat
4 Rain Delay
3 Snow Sapphire
4 Voice of Winter
Draw (2):
2 Research
I think this needs a few more damage dealing cards. Not sure why I only put 2 Nova in the end.
If I added 1 more Nova, 1 more Research and 1 more Special Delivery then it might do better. However, I am going to secumb to the dark side and try a Majiya variant of this deck.

Yes, I think Nishaven would have been a better choice! The reason for Eladwen as hero is that I started off with some allies in the deck and only removed them after i'd already declared my hero for the T1 tournament.
BTW, I don't think a Majiya version of my deck is possible because Retreat is a key card for early game. I will try Nishaven and the extra Supernova. Cheers.

Damn. Nobody talking about how great and undefeatable my Eladwen is? GDC hogging the spotlight? Great.
