I made this its own thread simply because I think it warrants it. I think this is a gem of a deck, and I'm proud of the build, even if it can be improved.
Alright. So, I think the deck is pretty strong due to one simple factor: You don't need to use your combo pieces in the exact way they're meant to be used due to how the nature of the deck is. Let's go over that. There are also multiple possible combos, so unless Malygos or Emperor Thaurissan or Drakkari Enchanter get Dirty Ratted, you should be fine.
The Second Combo: Turn 1: Play Emperor Thaurissan and Drakkari Enchanter with burn, Malygos, and 2 Eureka! in hand (Electra Stormsurge optional). Make sure you have at least enough burn to kill your opponent. Turn 2: Play Electra Stormsurge if available, then 1-2 Eureka!/Ancestor's Call (AC Last). Then, cast your burn! Only one Lava Burst is usable if you play Electra, but you get more damage dealt with Electra.
Third Win Condition: Pressure. You can generate enough pressure simply with your burn to outright kill your opponent - no need to do the combo at all times, the combos are just two of a few win conditions.
Far Sight: This card allows us to potentially negate parts of the combo. See, due to its cost reduction and use with Electra Stormsurge, it can singlehandedly enable your combos!
-2 Omega Mind + 2 Ancestor's Call: Im not a big fan of Omega mind in this deck, its a long way until t10, and at that point you want to have all the combo pieces. You have a limited time to stall compared to control lock/priest/warrior. And the call is just a key card in a deck like this.
Im also not sure about Hagatha since you have so few minions. I would suggest Hallazeal the Ascended instead.
Fair enough - though, removing more cards might be necessary with Ancestor’s Call. I’ll look and see what fits better.

Turn 2: Play Malygos, then Electra Stormsurge - Play your burn (if you played Electra Stormsurge, use Lava Burst FIRST)!

Turn 1: Play Emperor Thaurissan and Drakkari Enchanter with burn, Malygos, and 2 Eureka! in hand (Electra Stormsurge optional). Make sure you have at least enough burn to kill your opponent.

Witch's Apprentice and Hagatha the Witch: Both of these cards can generate burn or Eureka! which is very beneficial.
Fair enough - though, removing more cards might be necessary with Ancestor’s Call. I’ll look and see what fits better.
Alright. So, now, we have 2 Fire Plume Harbingers to not only counter Dirty Rat and Deathlord, but help enable Electra Stormsurge - in addition to 2 Frost Shock cards for freeze and/or burn.
There we go - decklist wasn't updating for some reason.
