Yeah, why not? It's a fun card. A lot of cool OTK decks can be built around it. Will stay for a year+. Worth it if you have extra dust or just looking to have fun.
jade druid got mad when his board full of op jaded minions got wrecked by my army of spell power dragons that showed up in 1 turn, not to mention a 4/6 bear taunt that protected me from lethal.
The build is strong but the issue is
1. how to ramp crystals fast enough
- well not as much an issue as i've been using innervate to rush the last crystals needed for 10 so i can aviana, kun. But this will leave not as much mana for enough spell casting, so normally you'd try to unlock all crystals first, and innervate after kun is used once you've up spells.
2. how to card cycle fast enough ?
- one part of the strategy figured out is making good use of auctioneer. But you need to innervate, coin and preferably small cost spells in order to really max out his card draw. Your banking on being able to pull out aviana, kun at minimum, and possibly malygos so that next turn you can win the game. Hopefully you also have a bunch of spells maly can use otherwise even if you do pull him out, he would have nothing to nuke with making that turn dangerous as they can do a brawl without u achieving anything :X
I was a bit sceptical about this card when it was revealed, but after playing him for a few hours I have to change my opinion on this guy. He's pretty good!
Turn 10, Aviana + Fandral Staghelm + Innervate. Into Kun the Forgotten King + Malygos + 2 Faceless Manipulator + a finishing spell.
welcome back aviana :)
Need this guy for my Jade Druid deck! Draw to the end of my deck and then...
Aviana + Kun the Forgotten King + Jade Idol + Jade Idol + Jade Idol + Jade Idol + Jade Idol + Jade Idol + Jade Idol + Jade Idol
On an empty board, that means a 5/5, a 7/7, five Jade Golems and nine more Jade Idols in my deck.
Kudos to any opponent who would not concede at this point.
i tested aviana and kun interaction in my video
I was thinking that adding malygos might be good becauz there is ample crystals for casting in a single turn. Alex for bringing enemy hp down to 15 for lethal. Some taunts (maybe shoggoth?) as well as bears for charging would be good for burst damage.
Jade is nice but i wonder whether it's the right fight? because your deck will be flooded with jade idols, slowing down pulls for setting up aviana and kun. Isn't it better to just ramp crystals and draws for those 2 cards?
So i'm wondering if a jadeless build would work better, or at least that doesn't use cards like jade idol which slows down card draw for other cards :X in this case aviana + kun.
Twisting Nether
4 mana 7/7 cries.
So lore-wise this guy is responsible for all the jade golems summoned by Aya Blackpaw?
pretty sure there's a really high armor combo in here....aviana, fandral, innervate, Kun, brewmaster, kun, brewmaster,etc.
Damn, I never thought of that. Will be fun to mess with. With the other new cards from the expansion, who knows what is possible? I can already see a Druid combo meta with this card in one deck and the gadgetzan/Jade Idol combo in another.
Druid is going to have an even easier time ramping this meta, and this card is going to make a LOT of cool combo's work.
Excellent card! Unfortunately, I can see everyone is more excited to play Aviana minion spam decks, which is a real gamble and would be annoying to face, not fun. I see this playing well in more thoughtful decks.
Made a deck centered around this card and Aviana
Oh goodies, make my Lightbomb even more valuable :) Perfect counter against these decks.
i used your deck as reference and tweaked it. i feel alexstraza is a very good addition since it's a 15 dmg guaranteed. however it's an extra card i need to draw though, but it really benefits from avianna's 1 cost effect, so why not.
So much fails. Alexstraza after swipe and starfall instead of mark of the wild. Druid of the claw (5) + raven idol (1) + mark of the wild (2) + hero power (2) = 10 mana and exactly 7 damage.
no wonder ur rank 19
