What are people's opinions on playing fire elemental over a flamewreathed faceless? It seems like there is really only room for one of the two and I'm wondering which to run. I'm leaning toward the fire elemental for the potential tempo swing on turn 6, but getting a 7/7 out on turn 4 is never bad.
Flamewreathed is really only good when you need to borrow the mana from your next turn.
After turn 6 Fire Elemental not only provides a big body, he also throws out that 3 damage for removal. A big body is nice, but having an immediate impact will always be more reliable.

I would run
ONE Flamewreathed Faceless
TWO Fire Elemental

No question. If it isn't an aggro deck, then Fire Elemental.
