A quick and aggressive deck, good for all beginners. There are no epic or legendary cards, so you will build the deck fast and cheap.
Beginning stage: try to draw as many 1 and 2 cost creatures as possible. The more, the better.
Middle stage: maintain an aggressive approach but don't engage into battle with hostile minions, unless it is necessary. If you have Territorial Viper (4), don't play it right away. This unit has Charge and Lethal, and thus will be able to eliminate hostile minions quickly.
Final stage: maintain an aggressive approach but don't engage into battle with hostile minions, unless it is necessary. Use Arrow to the knee(1) + Finish off (2) or Sharpshooter scout(1) + Finish off (2) to eliminate tough creatures.
Advantages | Disadvantages |
+ Fast units + Significant damage + Cheap to build | - Very poor defense - Lack of minions with many HP - The fast pace causes a threat to run out of cards |
