the deck is based on the card advantage given by ferro golem, i think the only card in oetg able to tutor, rather than simply draw cards. For card games, card advantage is mostly everything, drawing a card is the strongest thing u can do: being able to tutor is even more stronger.
Why i picked gladius: 5/5 is decently good, it can be fueled by a single immolation or by a single rol in case i don't draw immo. Water mark + the water quanta given by immo is more than enough to fuel is ability
Why not using a simpler build with lava destroyers? They can't be tutored, the deck is less consistent and they are very weak to early cc. In the worst scenario, lifesmith has 8 health, there isn't a single cc card able to okho/rather than weird things like mutation. If it gets killed, it means 2 cards are wasted and still, i lost lifesmith but i still have +1 on a card. With "normal" aw deck, cc on an animated weapon is almost an autoloss.
The 2 sobs, bb are optional, i like sobs even if preco can still be an option, bb is still the best, cheapest cc card and same for fog shield.
The deck is ofc far from perfect, u can win against champions and nothing more, it can't mantain the card advantage against arena 2 because of double draw and more focused deck on a strategy like pure rush, pure control.

Similarly, using unupped Lifesmiths lets you play a Golem + a Lifesmith with a single Cremation. This is extremely relevant since you have no other fire quanta source.
Basically:
Nice deck by the way.

Arguably Tess. & Whim can be pretty effective search if you have a few of them out. Anyways, I couldn't get you free Nova, but was thinking of you when deciding to put tutor on stormshield
