Budget Elemental Excavation Mage (Badlands Budget Theorycraft)

This is a tempo Elemental deck sidling into a slight Excavation theme with Kobold Miner, Cryopreservation and Blastmage Miner (with Saloon Brewmaster for extra excavating) to gain access to powerful tools in a Budget build. The plan is to control the board with early tempo/cheap removal while gaining value from Excavation and various Elementals with Discover effects.

Three favorite cards:

3. Eroded Sediment: The Wild pool of Elementals is massive, but there's quite a few good hits - and whatever you find, the opponent isn't going to expect it.

2. Saloon Brewmaster: She can bounce cards with Excavate, or bring back an Elemental in a pinch.

1. Blastmage Miner: 21 of the cards that start in our deck put at least one card in hand when you play them (assuming various triggers are activated), keeping your hand fat for a big Blastmage turn and the Excavate is a delicious cherry on top.
