Good Day Everyone,
I have recently got a Kutyr and I am having some trouble in arena: the deck doesn't seem to be stable.
Very often I find myself in a situation where cards are late by 1-2 turns.
Deck got me up to top50, but just doesn't seem to run in a reliable way:
Kutyr Lv. 30 - 39/39 **(is it too many cards???)**
Equips - 2x Crushing Stones
1 ELDER ERISTAR
3 ASTAROTH (E)
2 CRUSHER OF SHIELDS (E)
1 WREN MOONDANCER (E)
1 ODYSSEUS (E)
1 BLOODBATH
2 GROTESQUE (E)
1 WREN MOONDANCER (L)
1 BERITH (E)
2 QUEEN HULOTH (E)
3 CONSTRUCTOR ALARA (E)
1 BRAINSTORM
2 MANAVORE
2 NIVEN STOUTBOW (E)
4 PRINCE SEVAL (E)
1 CAUSTIC SPIDER
1 HYPNOTIC MAGE
2 EXPEDITER
1 BOUNCE
1 PRINCE SEVAL (L)
3 HIPPOTOXOTE
1 WALL OF ACID
2 COUNTERSPELL
My logic would be that a balanced time curve would allow survival until the big boys come to play, therefore:
4xT9 4XT8 4XT7 6XT6 5XT5 8XT4 6XT3 2XT2
I would love your suggestions on how to improve stability, or any change that should be done.
Thank you all.

Main issue is using the same deck to fight all: Kutyr is anti rush and should be used mainly vs those. For example, in chat you mentioned mirror matches: vs Kutyr i personally use Myrrhi and it's working pretty good

I am quite new to the game (1 and 1/2 months), so, the only p2w hero I have is Kutyr.
I use also Malik and Myrrhine (vs glasha).
So out of need, I must try to recycle a deck that can fight me all these other heroes...
The majority of decks in arena are Maliks as u know, the problem is that there are several Malik builds, and vs some (Dragon, Singularity as example), my Kutyr is powerless...

eq seems good although summoning equipment would be better. i understand not everyone has it, i just have one copy of cave eggs myself.
huloths, nivens and bounces are strong as heck, that's the right sort of thing to be including. crusher ain't that hot - takes longer than huloth to come out and doesn't have the hp to deserve the increased wait. check out stuff like sela stormcaller and more copies of berith, always more beriths!
that's just my approach to kutyr though
i think there is a strong way of building Imps with her too

Yes 39 is too many. Especially weak cards as you use.
Drop both Crushers, Manavore, Caustic Spider, both Expediters, all Hippotoxotes and Wall.
It will make your deck much better.
Usually theres one important rule: dont use shitty cards just to have many cards in deck.
20 good cards deck is milion times better than 39 cards deck where half cards suck.

Thank you for the suggestion, I choose not to put many beriths because they really suck vs dragons, but maybe I could try 1 more.
I might then remove crushers and add 1 berith and 1 huloth. (but I am sure berith will target dragons 100% of times :D)

Sure, 39 are way too many for me as well, but, following your idea, don't I risk to do nothing until turn 6/7?
That would be death vs Malik... I'll think it out :)

Came out with this other way of Kutyr:
CARDS 33/39
EQ: FLASHFIRE - BARD'S LUTE
2X QUEEN HULOTH (E)
3X AMBUSHER
2X NIVEN STOUTBOW (E)
1X BRAINSTORM
4X MARKSMAN
4X PRINCE SEVAL (E)
1X MARILITH
1X SUBTERFUGE
10X HYPPOTOXOTE
1X PRINCE SEVAL (L)
2X BOUNCE
2X COUNTERSPELL
Seems to be a much more reliable archetype vs Malik.
I still suffer a lot from 2x Flashfires, but once I have 3 creatures on the field is quite probably gg.
Thoughts?

Yes theres always risk vs Malik. But dont forget that Kutyr stuns oponent for the first turn wich helps a lot and also deal 3-4 damage per turn.
+ damage from equips.
