Ahh cool idea! Yeah all that card draw made Ysera tempting for me too, just not with Ysiel as I'm trying to go for. Sacrifices combo speed for some late game dragons.
Imo Ysera is way more fun in the regular Spell Druid, as Overflow and Fungal Fortunes really get those portals out.
eah I agree, and the meta just got worse for the deck honestly, with hunters taking over. As dogdog mentioned recently in a stream, if you don't like a meta, don't play it. Do whatever you find fun!
I'm glad you think so too! Low key was nervous when I read how ppl are crafting Ysiel Windsinger so much , but honestly she is pretty good and has potential for growth depending on how future expansions go.
Heavy decks feel so satisfying... when they work lol
Step 2: Play Elise and 2x Malygos (either copying goose or using Germination) and 4x Moonfire face = 44 damage
Now, this might not always be possible. Maybe the second Imprisoned Satyr is taking too long, or you discounted Ysiel Windsinger already. In THAT case you gotta do more set up, including using an extra turn for Elise OR settling for a 24 damage OTK (only one Malygos). You need to find your win condition. Good luck :)
I think this is a great question. The rank system represents the only in-game measure of progress. The higher you rank, the more rewards you receive (pre-legend), so that could play a role.
I feel like there is more to it than that. Might play into some reward response ingrained in our minds.
Demon hunter has actually been my second highest wr matchup (first being priest, which this deck can farm). Having Crystal Power and Wrath for early game, having a taunt that can heal out burst range with Hidden Oasis, and saving Oasis Surger for Priestess of Fury is satisfying and not impossible to draw.
Hunters have been even 50/50, thanks to some Ysiel saves. We can discuss Quest Warlock when I find one haha, but their draw seems insane.
I am interested in updating the guide with stats and replays soon, when I have more free time. My school semester isn't quite over, but within the next week. Stay tuned!
I think that would make her OP. So many druid spells draw cards, meaning you can cycle through your whole deck in one turn.
A more appropriate indirect buff is to introduce another card like Nourish. She needs another big spell that gives mana, perhaps a cheaper spell that Choose One spell that both gains 1 mana or does another effect. Make her synergy with quested spells more consistent.
Ahh wow! Elise the Enlightened is a good idea! And it looks like she was used with Malygos since Saviors of Uldum. I like how it simplifies the combo to 4 cards, and makes the deck much easier to play, with less pieces to manage.
While the Ysiel combo is complicated, there is value in the interchangeability of the pieces. Sometimes the Moonfire needs to be used, such as combo'ing with Starfall to kill Dragonqueen Alexstrasza. Having additional combo options, made available through the Ysiel discount, is strong imo.
I also find discounting Ysiel to be phenomenal, and can pull more clutches compared to Elise. When games go south against highrolls like Dragonqueen Alexstrasza and Edwin VanCleef, being able to get a Nourish chain has saved me games. I want to make a video in the future to show it off.

I guess I should say "easier" to get to legend.

I'll elaborate this more in the upcoming "Elise" section. The Elise OTK revolves around playing 2x Malygos. Here is an example:
Step 1: For the Elise "OTK," or one turn kill, you need two discounts on Malygos and/or Elise the Enlightened.
Step 2: Play Elise and 2x Malygos (either copying goose or using Germination) and 4x Moonfire face = 44 damage
Now, this might not always be possible. Maybe the second Imprisoned Satyr is taking too long, or you discounted Ysiel Windsinger already.

I'm glad to hear that learning is happening!

I didn't realize Maly had such a fanbase! Hope he never gets Hall of Fame'd!
Are you saying you put Ysiel and Elsie in the same deck? If so I need to try this! Maybe its the middle ground i am looking for!
Good luck with the legend climb! Hopefully I encounter you in dumpster legend as I am play-testing this deck :)

I need to test Steel Beetle and Anubisath Defender in the Ysiel deck! They look like strong replacements for Claw and Crystal Power. Thanks for the idea!

Any Malygos deck, honestly

I just added a guide for the deck, including explanations of the combo and each individual! Check it out!!
