I personally don’t think Curator is necessary, having seen many builds of Jaina-control mage that don’t run it; however, it does change your deckbuilding calculations a bit: for example, do you still want a coldlight oracle without curator to pull it out? (You might, with how strong the card is against warlock currently.) In general, you probably want some other card draw, whether it’s a second coldlight, a second AI, or an Acolyte of Pain.
(Can you actually dust adventure cards? I’d never tried.)
I think Elise is the perfect 5 drop. Gives you buddy so you don’t have to skip turns in those control match-ups like priest and warlock and in the future it gives you huge value of 5 additional cards. Screw a little bit dragonsfury but that’s it.
Anyway I think Elise is always save way to craft, after rotation I predict more of Elise on meta.
But if you wanna replace I would say:
1) harrison jones – cause you usually wanna destroy warlocks weapon and if you do you also get 3 cards which is pretty nice. Versus aggro you also can draw card which will close you to your Jaina or something. Than you obviously put out Ooze and replace it with anything else on that list
2) Blizzard – the best stalling tool in the game. Also value to dragonsfury. Set up for flamestrike on boards which are huge. Can also go this with 1 mana guy and if it lives can heal multiple times.
3) Firelands – it’s just good cards. Clear + minion.
4) Alena – it’s only good against priest so I wouldn’t be so certain but it definitly can have it’s momment. So you can try.
5) Or one copy of spitefull summoner – even if it hits 3 mana spell, it’s okey.
I mean it’s Elise is just for late-game value, you don’t need this card right now. There is not much games were you need value, warlock will beat you anyway (I don’t know, still waiting to play this deck, today is gonna be my first time) and priest is Dirty Rat strategy and armor gain-up.
This deck is kinda bad, theres better ones
Is there a replacement for dirty rat? Never did open any and don’t want to 2x an epic that’s rotating pretty soon.
Any replacement for the Curator. I had dusted it long back; now don’t want to craft so close to rotation
