Aviana is a legendary druid minion card, from the Grand Tournament set.
How to get
Aviana can be obtained through The Grand Tournament card packs, or through crafting.
| Card | Crafting cost | Disenchanting |
|---|---|---|
| Aviana | 1600 | 400 |
| Golden Aviana | 3200 | 1600 |
Notes
- Aviana's effect functions as an ongoing effect. If she is removed, the effect will also be removed from all affected minions.
- Aviana's effect grants a cost modification effect to all eligible cards, upon coming into play. This works like multiple enchantments - cost modifications which were in place before Aviana's effect will have higher priority, while those which come into effect after Aviana's will have lower priority.
- Example:
Emperor Thaurissan's effect triggers, reducing the cost of an in-hand 
War Golem to 6. Aviana then comes into play; her effect immediately reduces the War Golem card's cost to 1. At the end of that turn, Emperor Thaurissan triggers again, reducing the War Golem's cost to 0.
- Example:
- Cost-modifying effects of cards such as Molten Giant cannot reduce their cost after having it set to 1 by Aviana.
Strategy
Possible (and obvious) combinations with Innervate, in the event you have drawn them at the end of the game, when they are not that useful besides Combo / double Combo decks. Innervate will be more applicable in control oriented druid decks even in the late game, due to Aviana's ability. Synergy with Emperor Thaurissan, especially as Emperor already sees play in druid decks; excellent synergy with big Taunts and 
Kel'Thuzad.
One of the combos you can pull is an OTK with Aviana, Malygos, Innervate, 2x Faceless Manipulator and 2x Moonfire for a whooping 32 damage in a single turn, usually enough to end the game. However, this requires a perfect hand, and since Aviana is a soft taunt, she will probably not last another turn if you are missing one of the cards.
Quotes
- Summon
- My winged children fill the skies.
