For some reason this list has two (2) copies of Raid the Sky Temple listed (an amusing error, to be sure). I have replaced one copy with Questing Explorer, giving us the deck code:

The third expansion will be titled "The Rise of Starseeker", in which Elise Starseeker protects the rebellion against the First Order, but in a plot twist, tragically becomes the next Sith Lord.
+1 for the Dorsey/Devo title reference. Lord, I am so tired!
Another very thoughtful, very timely, and very relevant article from our friends at Out of Cards. Wash yer durned hands!
+1 for the Tom Sawyer reference.
Come and play with us.
We really need a "like" button for these articles. Someone pester Flux.
Meanwhile: +1; it was fun to recall those times, just four years ago.
[Edit] Oh hey, there's a rating feature at the top of the article! 5/5! Great work, SoS!
The Internet: We wonder if Joe Magdalena's departure from Blizzard is significant.
Blizzard: We’ve temporarily disabled this week's tavern brawl due to technical issues.
Wow, this is an efficient deck. Thumbs up!

I wasn't able to quite get a turn one win, but I was still able to win nonetheless!
Great summary, Flux! It makes perfect sense for the Descent of Dragons expansion to close out the Year of the Dragon.
Tom Scott? :>
I managed to beat a control warrior with this deck in overtime (he conceded). Fun deck!
Meme-tastic!
Nice deck! I am missing a few of the key cards, but substitutes like Reckless Rocketeer and Unleash the Beast get the job done.
The third expansion will be titled "The Rise of Starseeker", in which Elise Starseeker protects the rebellion against the First Order, but in a plot twist, tragically becomes the next Sith Lord.
... waitaminute, that all sounds so familiar.
Just adding my voice to the praise. Great article; very informative. Kudos.
I played an opponent who had a variant of this deck, having Blade Flurry and Togwaggle's Scheme. Fun deck!
Good card choices. Once you get poison minions in the center line, you pretty much control the board.
I detect a theme.
BEEEES!
