Price (Normal/Gold)

Comment
Thaddius Brood
$87.00/$89.28 ★4 Summoner is a very special card, without a high level summoner, high level monsters are useless. Maximizing the summoner to ★4 will allow you to use a ★5 Common, ★4 Rare, ★3 Epic and ★2 Legendary which is the maximum level in the silver league. Thaddius Brood is the anti magic specifically to Obsidian nullyfying magic buff and decreasing opponent's health by 1.

Verdict: Must have in your deck. Owning a summoner is expensive. Suggest to rent but owning it is a good decision. The -1 to health is very useful. Gold foil 4x$22.32 vs Normal foil 25x$3.47 only have a small difference in price.
Carrion Shade
$0.81/$0.73 ★3 or ★5 Carrion Shade is a good filler in some situation as this card ony consume 1 mana. I recommended to have a ★3 for the flying ability, if you think that additional 1 speed is a big benefit then go for ★5. Best to use in equalizer ruleset as an additional protection and a chance to dodge incoming attack because of the flying ability.

Verdict: Cheap card that you can buy, a Gold foil has the same price with a normal foil ★3.
Riftwing
$7.80/$7.85 ★5 Even Riftwing does not have any attack, I think Riftwing is an important common card in death element. Because of flying and backfire ability, Riftwing can provide damage to enemy if it successfully dodge the incoming attack. Imagine spreading fury ruleset which can further increase Riftwing's speed. Riftwing is immune as well to earthquake ruleset and can survive longer in noxious fumes ruleset.

Verdict: Must be a ★5 for the backfire ability. Riftwing is a must in your deck.
Shadow Snitch
$5.16/$4.40 ★4 to ★5 Shadow Snitch can be a good option for little league ruleset as it can attack on the second position dealing 2 melee damage. Also a decent amount of health which can temporarily absorb some damage. I rarely see Shadow Snitch in the battlefield as there might be better cards that can attack in the second position.

Verdict: I don't see most of the player use Shadow Snitch but this card may comes in handy some special case.
Crypt Beetle
$2.31/$2.04 ★3 to ★4 Crypt Beetle main job is to defend and not to attack that is why I recommended for a ★3 or ★4. I don't think that a 2 melee attack will have a big impact. Crypt Beetle is most suitable in equalizer and little league ruleset. For more details refer to this post.

Verdict: An extra card that is readily available in your deck waiting to be pick on special scenario.
Silent Shavi
$7.80/$9.50 ★5 Lurking like a snake. Silent Sha-vi is one of the most important common card in the death element providing a 3 melee damage sneak attack.

Verdict: A must in your death deck which can turn the tide of the battle. I recommend the ★5 for the additional speed which really comes in handy.
Soul Strangler
$3.50/$18.64 ★3 to ★4 Soul Strangler dealing a 3 range damage and only cost 3 mana is a really great card especially with the fog of war ruleset.

Verdict: If you are contented with a 2 speed then go for ★3 but ★4 will give you additional speed. Soul Strangler is a must in the deck which specialized in dealing great damage.
Life Sapper
$5.75/$13.16 ★4 Life Sapper can be compare to Venari Bonesmith but these 2 cards have different use. Life Sapper cost less than 1 mana comparing to the latter but deals 1 more magic damage. Life Sapper is great for back to basic ruleset compare to Bonesmith

Verdict: Another important card even with a low health. It may be expensive for a rare card but you have the option to rent it.
Dhampir Stalker
$3.50/$14.96 ★4 The Marksman. Dhampir Stalker is a surehit marksman dealing 4 range damage but cost a 7 mana. This card is suggested to use in a high mana matchup.

Verdict: Renting this card is quite a cheap one and is very helpful especially for those matchup that needs a large firepower.
Cursed Windeku
$21.25/$49.80 ★3 to ★4 Cursed Windeku is probably the most important cards in the death element in the Chaos Legion Edition becaue of it's thorn ability m a high health and a decent speed and melee attack.

Verdict: There is no debate on this. Cursed Windeku is a must in your deck.
Magi Necrosi
$20.00/$38.44 ★3 Magi Necrosi can freely attack without worrying an incoming attack due to camouflage skill. A ★3 provides a direct 3 damage.

Verdict: A good epic card that focus on attack damage. Somehow expensive.
Weirding Warrior
$12.80/$28.50 ★3 Weirding Warrior is rarely seen in the battlefield as the main purpose of this card is to break armor. This card may soon be important especially that Ever-Hungry Skull reward card has been reveal which do have a thick armor.

Verdict: Can easily break thick armor and only cost 2 mana. This card may provide some benefit in special cases.
Insidious Warlock
$5.8/$23.88 ★3 Another card that can be rarely seen in the battlefield due to the recharge ability which will take time to attack.

Verdict: In silver league, I don't think this card have a big advantage. I do not recommend this card.
Djinn Muirat
$20.22/$78.00 ★2 Djinn Muirat is a good legendary monsters that deals with magic damage. The void armor ability provides a great benefit against snipe magic attack.

Verdict: Rent this card as part of your arsenal.
Lira the Dark
$21.27/$69.00 ★2 Lira the Dark range opportunity attack is her best asset because of her high speed. She can target the lowest health enemy.

Verdict: A great card that specialize in killing low health enemies which are usually providing good support or giving a high damage.Lira the Dark is a must in the deck.

Summary

In summary, Thaddius Brood is a must in your deck which can nullify Obsidian and Mother Khala. Riftwing and Silent Sha-vi are the most important in the common cards. All of the rare cards are important especially Cursed Windeku. Magi Necrosi is the most important in the epic cards, Weirding Warrior will have it use and will play it's role.The 2 legendary cards Djinn Muirat and Lira the Dark are important as well.

But of course having all those cards available in your deck is a big advantage. The more arsenal you have, the better.

The next post would be for Neutral Monsters and Dragon Element which will conclude this series! Stay tuned and keep on playing.
