Classic Dresden (Fatigue C’Thun Warrior) – (Standard, May 2016, Season 26)

Heh, Greetings.

This is my take on Fatigue Warrior in Standard. I’m having a lot of fun playing this deck and it creates some great moments and long games. I hope you enjoy it too.

A lot of the stuff here (Fiery War Axe, Armorsmith, Sen'jin Shieldmasta, Brawl, Justicar Trueheart, etc.) is not new to Fatigue Warrior, so I won’t worry about explaining those. The same goes for the C’Thun cards (Disciple of C'Thun, Twilight Elder, C'Thun's Chosen and the bad boy himself, C'Thun). Some other choices though, need some explaining.

Nat, the Darkfisher is going to be the first card you look at and scream in genuine terror, so I’ll start there. You’re playing to get to the end of the game and this card will empty your opponents deck. This immediately sounds great, then, until you play it against an aggro deck and you realise you’re just refilling their hand whilst they empty it. Therefore, you probably shouldn’t do that. Against aggro, use this card as early removal and get it off the board quickly. Against control, use it to force your opponent to play cards and maybe get a cheeky mill. Basically, just be very careful with this card, and it will be your friend.

The Black Knight is just very useful given what is going on in Hearthstone right now. C’Thun decks are everywhere, meaning the twins (Twin Emperor Vek'lor) are everywhere, even in this deck. I haven’t had a game yet where I’ve regretted this choice.

Doomcaller isn’t typically included in C’Thun decks, because why would you ever want to play C’Thun twice? When you’re playing fatigue, that’s when.

Frost Giant. You’ll want to be armouring up a lot, so why not bang in a nice big giant that you’ll probably get to play for cheap? Nice.
