Hearthstone- Heroes of Warcraft (Enter Your ID!)

8 health taunt is great, especially since against agro, they're likely to wind up with something like Leper Gnome if they kill it, which probably isn't of huge consequence. Against control, they might get something bigger, but most control priests run 2 SW:D anyway.

[BROseidon]

I guess against more aggressive aggro it's pretty good. It does fuckall vs mech-shell shaman in my experience.

[AngryPidgeon]

Deathlord -> Hunters Mark -> Savannah Highmane -> My Apologies

[BROseidon]

Does FaceHunter run Highmane?

[AngryPidgeon]

sort of.
There are "hybrid" variants of face hunter. The 'hybrid' variant is what got me to legend the last two times I pushed for it.

Im not sure what is in a typical hybrid list, but I run 1 highmane in it. I was also running Snake trap and flare. I think I had 0 Wolfriders and 1 Arcane Golem in that, so thats probably what I cut for it.

Okay, I'm back with a (hopefully) better decklist. (I'm not a very good deckbuilder)
This time it's Reno Hunter.
It's been doing really well. Like, 70-90% winrate well. I've only played like 10 games, though, so more extensive testing is needed.
IDK if Jeweled Scarab/Tomb Spider/Knife Juggler have a place in this deck.
I like juggler even though it has little to no synergy because it's a 2 drop I can play on curve that draws out removal
Thoughts?

Webspinner
Bear Trap

I don't like deathlord in this deck since you're not doing anything to abuse it.

you're right. i thought it worked well with velen's but it seems like in most of my games it's more of a hindrance.

[BROseidon]

Do you hard mull for Scientist?

[BROseidon]

Also, I would run Sir Finley.

[AngryPidgeon]

^ Finley or riot.

[BROseidon]

Finley is the best card in the game from a design perspective.

[Thestatusquo]

How has flare been for you? I feel like I'm seeing way less of both hunter and secret paladin than I used to, as well as freeze mage never being a huge percentage of the field. How frequently is that card just 2 mana: draw a card?

[Thestatusquo]

I'm also lukewarm on explosive trap in this build. Since you're not overly aggressive, the effect isn't that great for you.

[BROseidon]

Hunter is generally pretty weak right now, but secret pally is still pretty common. It's a pretty clearly T1 deck (part of why I love mech-shell shaman is that it has a good matchup there)

[Thestatusquo]

I don't know, I've been seeing almost none of it. Like maybe once every 15-20 matches.

[BROseidon]

What are you seeing right now?

[Thestatusquo]

Shaman, druid (midrange) and reno decks(warlock being the most common) almost exclusively. I would say those archetypes make up roughly 50% of the meta I'm seeing. The rest is in order of frequency: midrange(reno) pali, Rogue, mech/tempo mage, hunter and secret pali.

Guess Im going to try this in ranked blind and see whats up; definitely a bit different from my previous list.

I've found Flare to be useful, but it really is a call based on what you are seeing played.

Paladin, Hunter, Mage, and a little bit druid (it reveals shade of Naxx) make it worth it. I havent seen that many of any of these around so I didnt put it in the list here.

[AngryPidgeon]

EBWODP: And it now has a 100% winrate at 1-0.

Back to work for now

[Thestatusquo]

This is just 100% unacceptable.

[Venmar]

This is my current Mid-rangey Beast Hunter list:

Spoiler:

I love the Beast theme and have been thinking of making a Mid-range styled deck of them work to some success. This deck originally had a lot more beasts (I liked the new Huge Toad, a webspinner, and a stranglethorn tiger just as a few examples) but I cut a bunch in favour or making the deck a bit more competitive and better in general. I'm personally not sold Sir Finley, the idea is that I might value a value power like Warrior or Priest or a ping ability (Mage/Druid/Rogue) more than the face since this is a deck more focused on board control than going face, but I think I might want an Owl instead. I also like Freezing and Bear Trap more than Explosives, I might drop a bear trap for explosive for the aggro matchup though. Kodo is really good in my experience.

[Thestatusquo]

What the fuck is wrong with you people.

[AngryPidgeon]

Fiiine I'll craft another golden exploding and UTH : P

[Thestatusquo]

[Thestatusquo]

does anyone have a good reno freeze mage list?
