Hi everyone, I hope everything's good for y'all. First of all, I must say that, firstly, english is my second languages and it is the first time I ever write a thread on ANY forum, EVER, so forgive me if I make any mistakes with my words or with the rules of this forum by misgard. This is my deck (see screenshot) and I need your help. It's doing pretty good, sometimes it's doing ok and I'd like to improve it. I know I should get Aya and that's the card I'm saving for but I only have 595 dust for now. I'm wondering if I should remove ''The forest's aid'' into ''Savage roar'', Power of the wild'' , ''Mark of the wild'' combo for something else? Or are there any cards you know that could help me improve my deck? I need more draw, and I could use armor I guess. Thanks in advance,
Well, it seems like you have a pretty decent deck for a budget already. A second Auctioneer would be really good to help with card draw, but I'm guessing that since it's not in the deck you don't have it. It would be a solid craft though and you could use it in other decks. I think you should cut the Youthful Brewmasters and probably at least one Starfire regardless of what direction you take the deck. Another relatively inexpensive card that fits well regardless is Spreading Plague.
Depending on the play style, Ferocious Howl, could be a good card if you want to go with a more defensive deck that focuses on mid to late game pressure with Jades. If you go this direction you can cut The Forest's Aid, the Savage Roars, and most of your buff cards for more draw, removal, and taunts. Playing cheap spells as removal such as Lesser Emerald Spellstone or Naturalize can help you cycle with your Auctioneers to really get your Jades going sooner. you can even play Raven Idol for some flexibility.
The other option would be to play a more token style of deck with Jades. You could add Mark of the Lotus with a few more early game minions to buff. One card I noticed could be good is Mire Keeper since it gives you the option to play more aggressively on board or ramp to get to cycling Jades quicker. I see you have Enchanted Raven and Acornbearer, which both would work really well. Then you can also play Mark of Y'Shaarj and few more cheap beasts to help cycle. Even with this direction, keep the Auctioneer since he synergizes well with the cheap buff cards in the late game.
Starfire is doing good for me actually, it's a pretty good surprise finisher if you ask me. And the brewmaster is helping me get more golem out by replaying jade spirit or jade behemoth. Forest aid and savage roar I agree with you and I just removed them. But why the ''mark of the wild''? What should I put to replace them? Thanks for your help
So Mark of the Wild is in a weird spot in that it's split between being an offensive card with the stat buff that you can use to make tokens dangerous and a defensive card since it gives minions taunt. I don't think it's horrible since you can have the need for either use in both an offensive or defensive Jade build, but I don't think it's optimal in either. If you go with tokens, replace it with Mark of Y'Shaarj for the buff and card draw, and you can rely on some early token taunts instead like Druid of the Swarm or Crypt Lord to protect your other minions. Otherwise, Earthen Scales would be the better option for the defensive build since you can gain tons of armor with it late game and it cycles well with Auctioneer. A few cheap taunts would cover you during the early game.
Another option for the defensive build I should mention is cutting the Jade Spirits and your small minions costing 4 or less to run Oaken Summons, Ironwood Golem, and Archmage Vargoth. Vargoth already works really well in Jade Druid and is pretty standard I think in most top lists. Since you should have him he's a nice inclusion regardless of if you play Oaken Summons.
Thanks a lot for all these advices, i wrote all these cards down and I aim to craft them ASAP. It's gonna take a little while but I'll get there eventually. For now, I looked at the cards I have and this is the result. What do you think?
Ok so for the curious, this is the updated deck and it's simply rampaging!! Did not lost 1 game from rank 24 to rank 18. It's pretty good and it's really cheap. Try it!
Nice! Now just get deck tracker to see how you do against which matchups.
Maybe you get stuck against control, in which case you might want to take out the Power of the Wild over either more cycle to get to your jades. Or 2 x Poison Seeds, which goes very well with Starfall. 2 x Naturalize would be great and cheap substitute if you face a lot of early big minions. Though control decks with Skulking Geist wrecks your jades. This also destroys your Raven Idols.
I would consider changing Loot Hoarders for Novice Engineers. Imagine drawing a loot hoarder on turn 10+ with 10 mana and nothing in hand. It's a waste of 8 mana. Engineer at least cycles. I'm guessing you had token aspect as an alternative win condition or was that coincidence? It might not be a bad idea to have if you are in fact facing a lot of geists, but going all-in on jades is probably cheaper :)

Sidenote, Poison Seeds is another inexpensive good card to include in a defensive build.

Does Raven Idol makes me discover a card in MY deck or in the whole cards pool?
It discovers cards from the entire druid card pool
