But if you don't want to use the effect of ogre, he is just a stand-alone card and therefore the only situation in which you have an advantage is with an open center and without counter. And since he has the highest crit in the entire deck, he is most likely to be bloced. Fairy has similar stats and only 1 crit less, but has penetrate, which makes her way more usefull in battle.

I admit that asura fits the deck better, but 2 cards are quite heavy for a mere extra 2crit-atk and more some kind of last resort.

What's wrong with earthshaker? 6/2/4 with optional penetrate or double atk is something i wouldn't rule out from the start. If the effects were switched i would kick out asura so fast, the card would get burn marks.
