I really don't get when you play Evolve in this deck. Can anyone shed some light?
Do you just look to Evolve your Thing and Jade Golems?
Tazz
Cards like Jade Spirit and Jade Chieftain by themselves are pretty weak stats for the respective mana, and are also good targets for Evolve. It can help in the mirror matchup with a little luck also :)
Even getting a 4 mana minion from an 0/3 3 mana totem is, in some situations, a good target for Evolve.
Mr Stinkbug
Kibler's using two Doppelgangsters in this deck now. (He took out a Spirit Claws and a Lightning Storm.) Much more effective.

I'm watching his live stream right now. Unless his deck list is incorrect...I haven't seen him using Dopplegangsters. Only watched 3 matches and I haven't seen the card come up either.
Mr Stinkbug
Yeah—he got rid of the Doppelgangsters on 1/25, after using them the previous day. Seems a strange choice to me. But hopefully I'll get to see him play the gangster-free deck later today and see the wisdom in removing them.

@Evident could you make it so that importing decks to HDT works again? :)
Evident
Hopefully will be fixed soon.

Replacement for thalnos and blackclaw?
Gavin
You can do loothoarder instead of thanalnos. It blacpaw is necessary
Darkbru
As a replacement for Thalnos, loot hoarder does okay. But in all truth, crafting Thalnos should be at the top of four to-do list. He's a classic card so he should be around for a while and he's included in just about every deck that needs a little extra spell damage. I crafted him and have not once regretted it, unlike when I crafted a couple other legendaries that are now rotated out of standard.

this is not his evolve/devolve deck. he used dopplegangers i know for sure. they're not on this list.
Trotticus
He took them out cause they're pretty terrible without Evolve.
phead80
nevermind he's edited to this deck, my mistake.
Yugi
Any replacement for Aya? i know she's very important, but i don't have dust

H1GH FYVE
Not really. Its able to create two jade golems and contest the board by itself. If you want to play a jade deck shes really the best card in every one. For this deck though you might want to try putting in dopplegangers. If you slam them down with an evolve on turn 6 on average your getting three 5/5s. Its very hard for an aggro deck to deal with a board like that.

No replace for aya! Craft it or die tryin'

Tried it for a few games. Have to say it's OK, but definitely not as powerful as N'Zoth Jade Shaman.
Good budget deck. Needs more Master of Evolution.
As a side note, removing a 5 star card like Lightning Bolt is EXTREMELY debilitating. Elitists like Kibler and Kripp have all the cards, so they forget the high value cards when slapping their decks together for youtube.
Mr. Stinkbug
Really? You think Kibler "slaps a deck together" to play live, eight hours a day, in front of tens of thousands of people? And that in the process he "forgets" which cards have value? How's that work, again?
hugo martel
this deck is trash i cant beat a single aggro deck and thats like 95% of the ladder lol
BasstiR
This Deck is simply awesome. You can also win against aggro pretty easily by keeping the right cards.
For example the AOE spells and the weapons can win these matchups very good.
You have to get the board filled relatively fast and then chain the evolves and BOOOOOM XD
Bazzerg
Nice deck. Any idea to replace brann? Is him mandatory?
Evident
Totem Golem would work.
Nagash
What about barnes in this deck list ?
