criticalhitgames.myfreeforum.org :: Deck Tech Question

So with Morningtide making its release I am going to modify my Elemental deck. My question has to do with the new card Brightearth Banneret:

Brighthearth Banneret:
1 R
Rules Text: Elemental spells and Warrior spells you play cost 1 Mana less to play.

So here's the question, do you think it would need to be put in a deck that already has the playset of Smokebraiders?

Any response will be appreciated.

It's a technical difference.

Smokebraider ADDS two mana of ANY color towards elementals.

Brighthearth LOWERS by one mana AND isn't an activated ability.

these differences are subtle but extremely important. If I'm running Horde of Notions I'll take Smkebraider. If I'm running an elemental weenie deck I'll take Brighthearth.
