I don't know if it works better in arena, but I think it's always better to have CC and PC when playing against gold.
So I'd try something like this:

You can replace Soulcatcher with towers if you want. You can use rage elixir to kill an enemy creature to boost soulcatcher or to increase the atk of pharao or scarabs.
(So it's kind of a replacement of lava destroyers). In not so optimal draws, you may have to cremate a mummy to play another one to use rewind on. I also was thinking to
add another bone wall (or imp fog) replacing a SoR because imo defense is often more important than speed in arena. Now the Gemfinders are replaceable with any zero cost creature.

The idea is good, but 4 zero cost creatures only?! It's really hard to power up the soul catchers.
From my own experience, soul catches are bad most of the time unless you can have a heavy CC cremation deck.

You can still make it a 31 card deck adding another zero cost creature. Other possibility I see is the following though I'm not sure how reliable it is.

Towers instead, this way less CC is needed and the combo can be played with Nova+Rewind. Also Nova can help for a faster start sometimes.

Well, one thing I don't like about rage elixirs is that they can't exist independently without pharaohs out. That way it turns them into mere bonus-adders instead of critical game-changers.

For no apparent reason I seem to have a special bond with the Mummy+RT+SoR combo... so here it is.

First, I'd like to say "Hello" to all users of this forum. I've been playing this game for about 2 weeks and it's great.

Second, I'd like to thank the author of this topic for his brilliant combo idea. I've made another deck based on the combo and I'm testing it right now in trainer. First 3 games with false gods: Morte done in 11 turns, Incarnate - fail, Hermes done in 8 turns . Jeez, it feels like fighting AI3 with unupped lava golem rush. You rules man! Thanks again.

P.S. More tests tomorrow.

Definitely a well thought out deck. It really shows off the synergy between the cards. Awesome job!
I bet its gonna be a nightmare if I run into it in the arenas.

This looks like an extremely fun deck to play with.  I can't wait to try this out

In that case I don't see other CC possibilities than Fire Bolt or Rain of Fire. Using Novas you may also use Gravity Force/Lightning/Shockwave/Freeze.
And now I ran out of ideas xD
Maybe someone else has more and better ideas.
By the way, rage elixier were also meant as CC not only to boost the pharao.

Maybe a halfway split between Golems and rage elixir if you need more control?

Maybe not. This deck has already got build-in CC: scarabs.
A bit PC would be nice, though.

Scarabs are a bit slow but still OK. I would agree that it needs more PC though. I often lose to mono-

Pack Deflag instead of Ragepot then. For 2 Ragepot you could get 3 Deflag in. (you only really need 2, though)
