UPDATE: We've made it to front page! Thanks for the support everyone. I am starting to work on an updated matchup guide and will go much more in depth. I am continuing to test a couple tech cards to get the optimal list.

Greetings everyone! I have been playing this on the ladder and have had some solid success so far.

General Gameplan

Initially we want to mulligan for our low cost minions such as Fire Fly and Pyros. Glacial Shardcan be kept, but we generally want to keep this card as a combo piece for Shatter or Coldwraith. Ice Walker should be played in a similar combo manner but can be kept in the opening hand. Frostbolt is also a great early removal to keep. This deck relies on tempo and the elemental synergy to create board control so try to play your elementals in a way you can activate their Battlecrys. We also have some great freeze synergy and a lot of cards to play around with in this mechanic so try to combo these. In most cases we want to drop Frost Lich Jaina as soon as possible to seal out the game by pinging enemies to summon our Water Elemental from her hero power. This deck is quite powerful if we are able to draw and play our Death Knight ASAP. 

Replacements

Baron Geddon > Blazecaller (if lacking a second copy play around with other elementals in this spot

Pyros > Shimmering Tempest

The Lich King > Ysera (for control matchups to generate value late game)

Conclusions

This deck can be weak late game if we don't draw our Death Knight soon enough but we have many pieces of removal and freeze mechanics to survive until we draw her. Hearthpwn is a COMMUNITY so give the deck a few play throughs and please leave any comments, questions, thoughts, or suggestions to make the deck better. Thanks and good luck :)

UPDATE 8/14

-1 Arcane Intellect +1 Elise the Trailblazer

-2 Fire Fly +1 Tar Creeper + 1 Ice Block

I feel Elise is absolutely key right now. Can't tell you how many games have gone to fatigue with myself running out of steam. Ice Block and Tar will help with any aggro matchups we face.
