After about three years of no luck, this deck finally got me over the hump to Legend for the first time.

It relies mostly on the Glowfly/Arbor Up token generators, but runs a package of Gibberlings for early pressure and Goru as its only minions. Goru helps the tokens to survive things like Consecration, Holy Nova, Immolation Aura if you're in for a longer game, Gibberlings on Coin with Nature Studies, etc. can create that frustrating early board.

I'm a big fan of Guidance here. Most of the time I end up using it with the overload to increase hand size for Glowfly Swarm, or simply for value because both options are great. Several times I ended up picking up the 10-cost spell early to use it as a surprise finisher.

Two days of playing got me from Diamond 5 to Legend. I think I needed 55 wins to get from D5 no stars to legend, which would put the winrate at about 57%.

I didn't track my matchups, but I saw a lot of Stealth/Weapon Rogues, which mostly went in my favour, a lot of Murloc Paladins (lost more than I won to that), several OTK Demon Hunters (about even), several other Druids (I *think* I came out on top more often than not here), other classes only what felt like 1-3 games each, I think.
