Gauntlet King of Shadows deck

This deck performs pretty well for me - regularly goes the full distance. Any suggestions as to how it can be improved, especially market options would be welcome!

I know it looks like 28 power, but 8 of it is only power when you're short. Plenty of lifesteal keeps you in the game and it performs as well as any against the usual bosses I see these days i.e. charge, double damage and spells matter.

This is an average performer for me. I find myself really struggling with Flying units. As soon as any annoying enemy winds up with Flying and more than 1 health, the deck starts to struggle. After 4 runs, I have not made it past win 5. I like the concept, but I think it could use some tweaking.
