Ozruk is kinda fun in this deck
What you have to do is you have to craft a golden toki so you can get a golden yogg from it.
Wish I waited to craft toki and arugal. This deck gives me the occasional win but gets stomped by most warlocks and aggro decks.
I haven't had much luck with this deck. Here are some of the problems..... not many spells.... you are relying on lesser spell stone and that elemental that gives you a random spell and the elemental that lets you discover a card from your opponent, To me that is too random. Not to mention a slow way to gain cards as all of them have conditions that must be met before you can play them. Also you have very little by way of fast clears or ways to deal with taunts with big health. Sure you have an elemental that does 5 dmg BUT a lot of bigs won't be cleared with that. Voodoo doll is a slow clear. How useful is Toki when your past legends are arugal and pyros. Pyros again is a slow build.
I agree that this deck isn't too good but it was built mainly to be a meme. You seem to have a few things wrong in your post but maybe I'm just reading it wrong. Here goes:
There is no elemental in the game that lets you discover a card from your opponents deck, you are thinking of Drakonid Operative, Servant of Kalimos is the card I'm guessing you are thinking of and it is in there merely to give more value than you already have. The deck is value oriented not really tempo. The tempo comes if you get an elemental chain but that's not overly important most times. All the elementals can be played without a previous elemental to set up a battlecry you really want.
Voodoo Doll is there mainly for Frost Lich Jaina synergy though it is also decent removal if you need it. But yes it is slow. Fortunately Archmage Arugal can give you a lot of these with some lucky draws for a lot of removal. And most of the elementals are cheap enough to be played alongside Voodoo Doll lategame.
Also Toki, Time-Tinker doesn't give you legendaries you have already played this game but a legendary from wild format, completely random from those cards. You can't get Pyros from Toki, Time-Tinker for example, but you can get Kel'Thuzad. Purely there for random memes and value.
This deck is similar but far better from everything I've heard.

Points taken. I think I undervalued voodoo doll and I am starting to see how people are using it.
I had servant confused with drakenoid
I will try it again and see what happens.
Scratch that I will try the one you linked!
I just can’t get this deck to work. It has no board clears unless you luck out with spellstone, and the minions just aren’t strong enough to hold their own in a tempo based matchup. I’ve taken a 2k hit in the legend ranks to try and actually win with it :,(
Its a shame because I have Toki and Arugal from packs but they just aren’t making the cut for me.
Trash tier deck from our friend Brian "Blizzard Shill" Kibler
Destroyed but just about every single deck in the current meta
I tried this deck a lot today, and must admit this deck is awful. Everyone keeps killing me - rogues, hunters, warlocks, priests. It is just too slow to gain tempo, I am ages behind before turn 9 when I finally can play my Jaina DK. I regret I spent some 4k dust to make this deck, thanks god Jaina DK will find her place in some other mage decks I am sure.
Should I construct this deck to climb? I dislike the Dude Paladin, Tempo Rogue and OTK decks. Would much rather prefer a control type deck, Mage, Priest, Warlock. I would love if this deck can help me climb but I need some of your opinions
Its crap
Just tried this deck and it seems fun, but I have one serious problem on ladder - odd face hunters. I just can't live long enough to realize my Jaina DK potential, I keep dying on turn 6-7, and there is nothing I can do with it. 3 damage to the face every turn without any heals just keep killing me.
Btw I tried this (odd hunter deck) by myself, and priests and warlock have some counter to it (heals, cubes etc) but mage have none of those. Are there any advices how this deck can counter odd face hunter? Maybe Mindbreaker can help with it? Thanks for replies!
I think you can try Arcane Artificers? I'm running a deck with 2x Arcane Artificers, less Toki and Pyros, and a few other replacements
Any suggestion to replace pyros?
Maybe Ironbeak Owl, Spellbreaker or Big Game Hunter for giants and stuff ;)
Deck's actually fun and not bad. Getting used to it and when to abuse the immense amount of card generation/draw you have and when to just go for the board and my winrate is improving. Although it might just be a deck we think is good but lacks when the meta establishes completely.
As for single target removal, since you have 2 dolls+2 poly you can afford to just remove whatever minion is pressuring you in the early game and still have some left for late. Coupled with blazecallers you get a lot of board pressure. Tbh it depends pretty much on getting full value out of the spellstones and getting AoE because you run none. I highly recommend going a bit greedy on the leylines for a big swing.
I love this deck, I haven't lost with it yet. It starts out looking a bit weak but that's the best part; when they think they have you, you use Jaina. Extremely fun.
