The idea behind that deck is to survive until the mid game and then keep on hitting with buffed Scarmother Vrynna, Vladimir and Anivia for lots of damage. Vladimir is very good in buffing during fight, especially if Legion Veteran is out too. Since it's a new game many people also don't seem to use the "Oracles Eye" as often as they should and miss buffs that happen.
How to survive against elusive:
Use Braum + Take Heart to pick them off, Death Lotus them when they attack and if necessary combo it with Noxian Guillotine. Culling Strike them before they get big. Stalking Wolf should also be used more as removal than as preventive unit.
EDIT: Something that's often forgotten: POSITIONING!
You mostly want Vladimir to attack LAST so if he isn't upgraded yet, he could upgrade during the attack when his spell and the attacks of the other units get resolved

Why only 2 copies of most cards? 3 of leads to more consistent game play, right?
For mana costs of ~6+, its dangerous to have more than 2 because they because they're unplayable until late game so getting 3x copies in hand can cost you the game. That said, I can't think of any good reason why for instance you'd have 2x of Blade's Edge, Elixir of Iron, Death Lotus, Culling Strike, Guillotine, AND Take Heart--if any 4 of those are a better fit in general than the remaining 2, then it does make sense to cut the 2 and use those slots to triple up the rest. I suspect that might have more to do with Leberschnitzel's collection limitations than a strategy. ;-)
Both of you are correct: It would increase consistency, but I'm limited in the cards and wildcards I have. I think that will change this tuesday though with the next 3 Diamond chests.
Until then I was also testing what works well and how the meta looks. It's even possible that Braum won't make the cut since he didn't perform very well in the deck...
Braum really needs a damage buff to shine; otherwise he's a nonfactor until he flips. You might want to consider adding Brothers' Bond: unlike most of your other combat tricks, its permanent.
Ok, just checking. I'm looking into building the archetype after Tuesday so I wanted to make sure. Good luck with your games!
I've built a more Value oriented version and it works much better.
The non-temporary buffers give a good boost to the self healing units, early control works very well and Anivia + Vlad have lots of late game damage in store.
I like the looks of this new version very much!
I look forward to trying something similar. I've had three Vladimir for ages, but they've never seen play. (They were all random rewards.)
FYI, here's a version M0gwai has been tinkering with. I admit on paper it looks like it's weaker than the other 3 versions listed on this page, but he's also a very serious player who's been actively experimenting so I can't dismiss his conclusions out-of-hand:

I'm currently climbing a lot with it. It's susceptible to stun decks, but everything else is fair game or just get's owned very quickly. Surprise Overwhelm is very strong!
