Golden Air Elemental	400	50

Strategy

As an Elusive 2/1 for 1 mana, Air Elemental can be played on turn one to threaten early 2 health 2 mana minions, without the drawback of being vulnerable to single damage pings such as Fireblast or Mortal Coil. However, keep in mind that its Elusive ability doesn't protect it from Shapeshift or Dagger Mastery.

If not drawn early, Air Elemental can serve a secondary function as a cheap way to trigger Elemental synergy throughout the game.

Lore

This section uses content from Wowpedia.

Air elementals are elemental creatures made of air, wind, storms, and weather. Their domain on the Elemental Plane is known as Skywall and they were formerly led by Al'Akir the Windlord. Not all air elementals are minions of the elemental lords and princes, some are minions of the elemental spirits of Outland.

-Unlike other 2/1 minions, Air Elemental is a safe turn 1 play against [[Mage]]s. This can help it trade with 2 mana minions. However, keep in mind that its [[Elusive]] ability doesn't protect it from [[Shapeshift]] or [[Dagger Mastery]]. Being a cheap Elemental, this card is good for triggering [[Elemental]] synergy throughout the game.
