Since Patch 1.0.9 traits become much more effectiv.  
So i was woundering are they some well working teams without traits or maybe only first trait.  
The only one comes to my mind is something with Alch/Valk/Banshee

Greetings Moonyson

Lol, most decks are good without traits, traits just helps the team being better most of the time.  
Except for Armored / Stoneskin / Some legendary traits that are way above the others and make a big change in the worthiness of a card.

And the troop would be comparably weaker if the the opponent had traits active. Big disadvantage.

I think the Crimson Bat deck will do well even without traits. Traits will speed it up, but it’s pretty solid.

The Yasmin’s Chalice / Rowan combination doesn’t need traits.

An early stoneskin Golem, as the cheapest stoneskin to trait, can help out if your just starting to get to traits.
