I was really excited to see if I had finally found a deck that could consistently use Pilfered Power to ramp into its very powerful late game. AND IT WORKS! Every time I have drawn Pilfered Power before turn 6 or so, I've gotten at least 2 crystals off of it, which has given me a decent edge over my opponent.
One problem. It doesn't give Excess Mana! I'm not sure how many people are aware of this because I don't imagine many people use the card. This makes NO sense. The reason why Jade Blossom doesn't grant Excess Mana is because it isn't useless on turn 10+. Pilfered Power is literally a dead card once you have maximum mana.
Blizzard please. The deck WORKS, I just need Excess Mana. I love Pilfered Power and I love this deck and really hope they fix this issue.
EDIT: According to feedback here, I am incorrect and it will grant Excess Mana if you have a minion on board. But still, enjoy the decklist!
I recently made this deck for use on Wild ladder:

Well we wouldn't want to give Druid a playable epic now, would we?
Edit: Well it seems to give Excess Mana if you have a minion, which I guess makes it fair, but the card is still pretty hard to justify.
Thanks for the feedback guys. I didn't know you needed a minion, but I suppose that makes sense.
Anyway, I'd still like to share the list. It's a fun deck.
