> 8/11 mana fill on a 3 blue gem match with 2 empowered for blue spam. Daughter of Ice creates the first Blue Storm. Overflow is easy in this team, so Jar fills, so you have a second source for Blue Storm and can explode the board to reset it if you end up casting TGK on Blue Gems.

Worth noting, its quite good at shutting down Grave Seer, Life and Death - Orbweaver, Arach Weaver, King Avelorn variants.

Very easy to get a turn 1 empowered fill on TGK, then you can target Purple to silence L&D and take 10 mana away from Arach Weaver.

At the very worst, you can use Scurvy Seadog to turn Green to Blue to blank Grave Seer.
