Veiled Worshipper - how and when to use this card?

Veiled Worshipper is one of the new units that has been added in the Descent of Dragons - Hearthstone expansion set. For 4 mana crystals you get a solid 5/4 stat minion on the board and a very useful Battlecry.

1. Invoke - In this deck you will find many cards with Invoke that can be used on Galakrond and let you build the Battlecry of Veiled Worshipper.
2. Battlecry - Before you play Veiled Worshipper, make sure you've managed use Invoke on Galakrond at least two times. This way, you will be able to draw up to 3 additional cards!

Sea Giant - how and when to play this card?

Sea Giant is a unique minion, which initially costs as much as 10 mana crystals! Fortunately, it is very easy to reduce the cost of this minion to just a few crystals. What should I pay attention to while using this card?

1. Mathematics - Before you play the Sea Giant you have to properly calculate its cost. Remember that its cost is reduced by 1 mana crystal for each remaining card on the board. In some situations you will be able to play the combination of Scarab Egg + EVIL Genius and thus reduce the cost of the Sea Giant by up to 4 mana crystals!
2. Plan your move carefully - If you want to use Sea Giant and play additional cards in the same turn, then make all necessary moves in the correct order. If you miscalculate the cost of the Sea Giant, you may run out of mana crystals.

Mulligan - appropriate card selection

Each duel begins with the so-called Mulligan phase, that is, the selection of cards. During this time, you can decide which cards to leave in your hand and which ones to discard in order to find others. Card shuffling always involves some risk, but sometimes it is necessary to take it in order to have a chance to win.

1. High priority - Blazing Battlemage, Flame Imp or/and Voidwalker. Your goal is to put a lot of pressure on your opponent as quickly as possible.
2. Medium priority - Consider saving Knife Juggler or Egg Scarab in your hand if you already have EVIL Genius in hand.

Defensive Play

Defensive is not the strongest suit of the Zoo deck. Among the selected cards you will find only two units with Taunt and one with Rush. Your major goal is to damage your opponent's portrait in the first place.

1. Shield of Galakrond - Minion with 4/5 statistics which has a Taunt ability. Moreover, it's useful after playing Invoke which upgrades Galakrond.
2. Faceless Corruptor - a minion which has 4/4 stats that transforms one of your minions into a copy of this. So you can use it to transform a 1/1 unit into a 4/4 unit.

Offensive Play

Thanks to units with low mana cost, you will be able to attack your opponent's portrait from the very beginning of the duel. Remember not to overcrowd the board, because your opponent can eliminate all your units with one spell, such as Brawl or Flamestrike.
