If you want to tighten the deck up a bit, you definitely want 2x Lightning Bolt, 2x Stormforged Axe, 2x Feral Spirit, and probably 2x Earth Shock. All are common except for Feral Spirit. Otherwise it looks fine and I can't really make a bunch of suggestions without just saying cram your deck full of more rares, epics, and legendaries. Also Rockbiter is a very commonly played removal spell.

Although you probably want at least one mana tide also since you don't have Pagle.

I wrote a few weeks ago about my dislike of Manatide Totem. I feel as though Acolyte of Pain is going to act as the strictly better card, in practice, more often than not. If Manatide Totem is working as intended, you're already ahead and that's all this deck needs. Acolyte of Pain makes it possible to keep up if you start to slip which I find to be more useful. It's a race for board control.

I think I will try 2x Stormforged Axe though. Been looking for an excuse to. Maybe I'll take out the owl.

7-1 so far with this draw. Those Venture Co. Mercs are carrying me like whoa. They just demand so much attention that i can draw cards and save for the end game. My early game is not great, but the hero ability helps mitigate that somewhat.

Finished 8-3. Early game killed me all 3 losses. Druid, Paladin, and Rogue all with lots of early drops when I was stuck with 7 or more 4+ drops.

How about renaming this the "screenshot of the arena deck I just drafted thread"? Is it too much to ask for some strategy discussion rather than/as well as "oh lol new arena deck!"?

Start some strat discussion then, ask a question.

Only thing I ask is everyone keeps the screenshots in spoilers, it gets obnoxious with the big decklist photos in the posts and then people quote them too half the time.

Talking about arena decks IS strat discussion really. I personally am far more interested in arena strats than the current meta for people trying to grind top ten rank and shit.

11-3 on this Paladin draft. Lost to 2 mages and then lost on my very last game to a Paladin who drew better cards than me. Was so close to the 12th win I could taste it, and it hurt that much more losing in my last win or go home match.

Will have little trouble winning as long as you don't run into something like a Druid with a bunch of fatties.

I actually did run into a deck like that but was able to top deck that Pyroblast at the right time to suck out a win.

3 wins and then ran into another Mage with an even better deck. Plus I mulliganed incorrectly. Mirror Image is a bit more 'meh' than I had in my mind when I drafted it. I'm thinking I need to play it more as a mid or end game speed bump for my opponent and/or as a guard for a good creature rather than as an opener. I need to mulligan it out of an opening hand I think.

Hopefully I can get more wins this time. My second draft ever I got 7 wins and haven't done it again since. Gotten 6 a few times though.
