      That's one of the cards that ended up getting cut to make room for the new cards. It's certainly a consideration for this deck as there are lots of great options to choose from. In a meta where you expect a lot of hand disruption and removal I prefer including more cards that are individually powerful and Dwynen's Elite tends to be one of the weaker cards when the game doesn't entirely go according to plan.
