I was playing Snake-Eyes initially but did not particularly enjoy that deck in a hand trap heavy meta so I made the switch. I think Kash is very strong right now for two reasons. Hand traps are either low impact or trade very poorly against this deck, and Ariseheart is insane into the current meta. Another bonus is that Shifter, although at 1, is absolutely cracked. I won every single game that I resolved Shifter.

Nothing special about the build. 25% of my losses were due to bricking so I tweaked the deck twice to try to increase consistency by adding Tear Kash and also keeping the deck count at 40 by dropping Designator. Playing Tear Kash over Scareclaw because you can theoretically play off a Tear Kash + Birth combination if you hit off the mill. I've always ran Preparations before but I'm trying Big Bang now because I think it's first effect is quite strong, and you can see it in my replay. I've always overlooked it because I thought of the card as an unecessary combo piece.

If you're struggling to climb with combo decks, give this a try. It's by no means an autopilot deck because there are a lot of nuances that you can only realize after you start playing with it, but you go through your games really fast and it doesn't feel like much of a grind.
