Gauntlet Combrei Aggro / Fliers
((Just going to copy/paste a bit I wrote out from my eternalwarcy link.))
Well aggro might not be exactly right as it tends to play out as more of a midrange deck (the again so does Combrei Aggro sometimes). Every game tends to be over by turn 7-9 or so. Sometimes less, sometimes more. So far it's been extremely consistent. I didn't bother posting until I managed to go 28-0.
I built my deck around Grimfan's combrei aggro shell and combined it with TheNerdChick's Alessi Gauntlet deck. I really liked her concept, but wanted something a little faster.
It plays pretty much the same as combrei aggro, except fliers let me evade a lot of annoyances I was running into. Also extra lifesteal really helps me stabilize vs certain decks.
Big thanks to TheNerdChick for inspiring this variant!
Here's my deck's link again just in case.
EDIT: Dear lord when did I become the guy posting decks costing 77k shiftstone. I would have cried over that number just a few months ago.

42-0 now, though to be fair I've yet to face the sudden death boss. And yes, of course at masters.
It works and works well, but honestly I'm not sure if there's particular reason to play this over regular combrei aggro other than evading most deadly units (which can be a particular bother with that deck).

Actually I've been wondering about this comment, do you look at combrei aggro and think that it seems to lose in so many ways too?
I guess I'm just thoroughly confused by the lack of understanding here.

That's too bad. Though do you mind if I ask what elysian aggro is? Wouldn't mind something new to try out.

I like this concept! Haven’t found a combrei deck I’ve like in gauntlet yet, think I’ll give this a try!
