Buff Lovers — A Poem

Won't you lay your resurrections to rest?
For Galakrond grows weary.
Let us join hands in prayer
That this deck may be good
Aside from mere theory.

Post-Theorycraft Testing:

Alright, so we might have to bring back Galakrond after all. This deck's taken a quite a bit of departure from the greedier version it originally was but with the upside that it just got a whole lot more affordable. I built on the Galakrond package by adding in Shield of Galakrond, Time Rip, and Kronx Dragonhoof for some utility and much needed card generation. Shield of Galakrond and Kronx provide the deck with high-end on-curve plays while Time Rip gives this deck another way to deal with the myriad of big minions. The Galakrond package is pretty budget-friendly, and you don't need Kronx to make it work, so don't feel as if you have to craft it. I had a hard time figuring out whether I should keep Kul Tiran Chaplain or Imprisoned Vilefiend, but both work well as two-drops, so it's ultimately up to you which one your prefer. I also added back in Wretched Tutor to give the deck a chance against aggressive decks that tend to go wide, but if you're able to, I recommend slotting in Soul Mirror since it has the advantage of being able to deal with bigger minions on board. For those of you who want combo interruption alongside a hand refill, Mindrender Illucia is a solid consideration. Of course, Archmage Vargoth is still a decent choice, and you're more than welcome to run him if you're set on achieving insane amounts of value that Galakrond would approve of.

If this deck isn't your cup of chaos, you might want to give the Deathrattle variant a try:
