Hey, thanks for the vid. Always appreciate more infect content. Sam Dams recorded a 4:1 league with the Nadu built. That said, both in his video and yours the bird got very limited screen time, so I'm not a 100% sold. I guess time will tell. I think boarding out glistener elf so aggressively is debatable. While the deck doesn't depend on the T2 kills and can play longer games, the fact that you can threaten it so early is huge and severly restricts your opponents play choices during the first couple of turns. This is also why I'm not a fan of the berserk-less versions - If you have two berserks and 6+ cantrips to find them, the opponent gumming up the ground is not as big of an issue. In this list, I'd probably shave the Hedge Maze (entering tapped is too much of a drawback with this deck) and maybe an Embiggen to make room for them.
It makes sense that my frustration with Glistener Elf is releated to the lack of Berserk to push damage through. Good overall analysis and input for how to rebuild the deck going forward.

1:09:23 you could have tapped inkmoth to animate itself, then untap with the reflexes and swing to still ping welder
You're right! Good shout and a thing I'll keep in mind in the future for overall mana efficiency with Inkmoth Nexus + Legolas' Quick Reflexes.
Someone similarly got me with a Dryad Arbour + reflexes not too long ago, so it's on my radar haha
Nothing cements an unconventional play into your knowledge base like getting blown out by it!
