I had a quest to use one of Marin's treasures, so I made a new deck and put all the excavate cards in there, also threw in Zola the Gorgon and used it on the Azerite Hawk for two 1 cost titans! I ended up getting Khaz'goroth and Aggramar, the Avenger. Those two cards ended up synergizing very well together and It was great!
Great explanation and my pet deck of this expansion is an excavate mage with the five cost clown because we use so many good six drops and now Marin is another great way to activate the clown for kill potential.
I'm having a really great time with this deck. I'm even beating Highlander Warriors. I lost my first 3 games getting a feeling for the deck. Then it's been Win after Win. So far I've won 6 games in a row. Been a while since I've had this much fun.
I actually got my first legend this winter with an excavate rainbow mage deck, it was very good during that time. But now I'm sorry I don't believe in this deck in this paladin meta
It seems unnecessary. You’d really only want to hit siff. The burn is all 1 mana spells. I guess molten rune at 3 mana is kinda expensive, but you’re really only going to have time to play Marin on 7 and wand on 8 against control matchups.
