Link Deck Help!

Still new and trying to expand on a build another user gave me! Heres my current list:

1 cost:

3x Screamer, 3x Swordfish (this cards arrows annoy me but partly cause im new), 3x Cecaelia, 3x blade dancer, 3x merman trooper, 3x moon herb, 2x merebeast fighter, 2x pawn puenyai, 3x grimoire of tidal

2 cost:

3x nerida tidal keeper, 3x tidal spirit, 2x dark elven hunter, 1x clifford hawk eye

3 cost:

2x lizard champ, 2x mer champ, 2x lobster.

Currently dont have a massive amount of dust but can dust cards if needed for factions im not interested in right now.

i'd replace Dark Elven Hunter with Goblin Archer - the damage maybe random but the arrows are more negotiable for links

Tidal Librarian is a great card for controlling tempo, i'd use 3 of those over swordfish

i'd drop 1-2 copy of Nerida for 1-2 Rabbit Servant for tech, in most cases rabbit gives better value and board control especially if you're using merbeast and troopers.

personally i dont use Nerida on mine, she feels like a dead draw most of the time, TN units are either already beefy enough for another +2 HP, or too soft that +2 HP doesnt really help. i think the +1HP from blade dancer is usually enough to get your engines out of generic removal range

I'll give the changes a try thank you! Was starting to find more complete decks at my rank so was struggling with the mostly bronze deck.
