This is a top tier Myriam Jank deck. (Thank you Mr Lyons.)
Hero: “Black Ice” Fizzlefreeze
Allies
4 Antikron the Unyielding
2 Korthas Greybeard
4 Marksman Glous
4 Xanata the Lightsworn
4 Instructor Giralo
4 Water Elemental
4 Tinker Bixy Blue
4 Myriam Starcaller
4 Weldon Barov
Abilities
4 Fizzle
4 Nether Fracture
Equipment
3 Belt of Blasting
Quests
4 The Defias Brotherhood
4 Tabards of the Illidari
2 Corki's Ransom
2 Kodo Roundup
2 Finkle Einhorn, At Your Service!
2 Return to the Aldor
Side Deck
1 Belt of Blasting
3 Spellsteal
3 “Scrapper” Ironbane
3 Mystic Denial
This is not a cheap deck, it has a lot of rares, some epics, and crafted cards. The idea behind it is to drop early protectors, followed by a Myriam and allies that inspire.
Something a little more in budget might look like this:
Hero: Fallenstar
Allies
4 Antikron the Unyielding
2 Korthas Greybeard
4 Vindicator Kadel
4 Xanata the Lightsworn
4 Instructor Giralo
4 Warden Tolven
3 Tinker Bixy Blue
4 Myriam Starcaller
3 Weeble
Abilities
4 Sudden Death
4 Puncture
3 Finishing Shout
3 Spell Ricochet
Quests
3 The Defias Brotherhood
4 Tabards of the Illidari
2 Corki's Ransom
2 Outland Sucks
3 Finkle Einhorn, At Your Service!
2 Return to the Aldor
Side Deck
2 Narthadus
4 Wreck
3 Scrapper
1 Spell Ricochet
This version of the deck has no rares in it, which should assist with the limited budget. Tt also has some disruptive elements that can really be tough for you opponent to overcome. To make things even better the hero has a great flip, has 30 health, and has access to some very powerful rare equipment, and allies. It's weak point is that it has no answer to ongoing abilities before Side, but you can swap stuff around to find the balance there if you like.
I am going to resist my typical rant against Myriam Jank as it is somewhat irrational. The bad thing about these decks is that they are rarely fun to play against, and for the most part non interactive.

I guess because you made all sort of Myriam jank decks :P lol
anyway the Fallenstar 1 is kinda the version I used to run, I'd main Narthadus, or run some Vindicator's Brand (I know its rare)
basically with Myriam you just want early low drop (but strong, hard to kill) protectors, and inspire. You can run any combination of Alliance Hero class/race/spec and it'll (most of them at least) do good with Myriam lol

I'm still confused as to why people prefer running Myriam instead of Primalist Naseth though. Myriam's a 5 drop, UnT, exhaust deal 5, while Primalist Naseth is a 6 drop, exhaust heal 4 deal 4. It would have been Epic if Myriam could combo with Darnassus, but noooooo she has to be Untargettable ._.
ConradHex - January 29, 2009 09:17 PM (GMT)
Myriam actually costs 4. Also, has 4 health, and is untargetable. Naseth is a 3/3, not untargetable.
The untargetable bit really makes all the difference in the world. It means she often sticks around to do her thing.

It's easier to kill allies with abilities than with other allies since you can protect against other allies, but can only interrupt abilities.

I am not sure why there is any confusion at all as to why Myriam is better than Primalist. Try Primalist in the same deck as Myriam for about 10 games and then try it with Myriam and you will see the huge difference.
