Strategy

 * Since with her BBS you basically get to play two spells for 1 mana each without the need to have a card, she is well suited to be used with any minions that trigger their effect whenever a spell is cast. Most of such minions belong to arcanyst tribe with the most popular choices being: Chakri Avatar, Owlbeast Sage, Four Winds Magi, Prismatic Illusionist.


 * Another popular archetype is the so-called Mantra Hai. Having almost no minions, the deck aims to chip the opponent with Phoenix Fires and other face damage spells until it is ready to finish the game with massive Firestorm Mantra turn.
 * It's important to know that it can be useful to stack her spellswords in action bar for truly explosive turns.

Balance Changes

 * v. 1.91 - added to the core set.
