    GG Narziss. Your deck is powerful indeed, that Aeon almost got me. Good thing I could dig for that extra Lightning Strike with Majiya. <3

    Honestly, since in the same update that nerfs Eladwen we will also be seeing the introduction of weapons and armors, I am currently fantasizing about what an Amber Rain deck might be like.

    Except for a handful of games each night, I've nearly stopped playing because facing so much of the same thing (Eladwen or Darkclaw) has gotten a little tiring (even if I nearly always win my mirror match against Eladwen, whether or not I play first). It was refreshing to lose to Ice's Majiya deck tonight. I'll probably try to kick up to the top 20 again after the update comes out, but for now, I'm going to go do homework and sleep.

    Now, if the new weapon and armor wasn't coming out and all we were getting with the new update was the nerf to Eladwen, then I would think that Majiya and Gravebone decks would begin to dominate, and Darkclaw would stay where it is. However, considering so much is changing in this new update, it is hard to say what the game will even be like once our heroes are wearing armor and wielding weapons.

    Isn't 4 Aldon a bit much, considering you can only have one of him on the field at a time? I suggest 3, but I probably don't know best, I've only just started this game recently.

    Some play 2-3. I'm in the 4 camp, though if you have to cut to 30 you can go less.

    Been going up in the ranks super fast with this build, going from mid 200's to 350's:

    1 Eladwen Frostmire

    Allies:
    4 Blake Windrunner
    4 Aldon the Brave
    2 Jasmine Rosecult
    4 Sandra Trueblade
    2 Aeon Stormcaller

    Spells:
    4 Research
    3 Fireball
    3 Lightning Strike
    3 Portal

    Some analyses on choices I made here:

    2 Jasmine Rosecult: While she's usually resource food early game, she fills in a great niche that the deck needs in order to maintain field dominance. Late game, she's pretty much a straight up better Blake. Just like the better 3-drop Aldon, 3/4 stats survive Lightning Strike and unboosted Blake. With Aldon, she becomes a 4/4, letting her two-shot Aeon with Eladwen's special and Fireball. Finally, though very rarely, distracting can potentially save you.

    3 Fireball: Against shadow allies, Fireball is almost essential for instantly getting rid of pretty much anything. The majority of the stronger shadow allies have 4 life, preventing Lightning Strike from doing its thing. It kills Bad Wolf, Keldor, and lets Sandra kill Infernal Gargoyle with the fireball damage. Against other human decks, it kills Jasmine, Aldon, and two-shots Aeon with Eladwen's special. Also, it costs 1 less than Lightning Strike, making it a potential follow up to Sandra or Portal, while accompanying Eladwen's ability.

    3 Portal: Far too many times when I playtest with 4 Portal I end up having 2 of them in the opening hand as well as being a normal draw early game. The first Portal you cast will make the other potential 3 dead draws, unless Ter Adun is around. Playtesting with 3 gave the deck a perfect balance on when I get my Portal and when I need it the most. 4 Portal tends to give me too many too early.

    I think your changes make the deck better. I think fireball could be the missing card I am looking for just to get rid of those high hp targets.

    I think 3 x Aeon Stormcaller is to many, they cost so much get get out anyway.

    Puwen Bloodhelm or Jasmine Rosecult is the tricky one, although Jasmine has a nice ability Puwen only costs 2 resource to play.
