Deck Description

Sjow briefly held the #1 spot on both NA and EU servers with this Tempo Warrior deck list. The deck has been gaining in popularity, and features a few of the new cards from Whispers of the Old Gods: Ravaging Ghoul, Bloodhoof Brave, and Malkorok. Malkorok was not greeted with a ton of optimism upon it's reveal, but is starting to pick up in popularity due to this deck. A bit of an interesting addition by Sjow is the Arch-Thief Rafaam that can allow you to fill your board or buff a minion!

    What are some good replacements for Ragnaros and Cairne Bloodhoof, only ones i don't have for the deck.
    Would Sylvanas and Nefarian be okay?

    1. Evident

      Yeah, those sound reasonable.

  2. Mallratt

    What would be the best replacement for Malkorok, not ready to commit to crafting him yet?

    1. Evident

      Gorehowl seems like a decent replacement.

  3. stenarn

    Malkorok seems like a great tempo card in this deck. Unfortunately I don't have it. Is gorehowl a good replacement? It's on curve but the deck lacks armor gain so might be a bad card. Any other suggestions?

    1. Evident

      That would probably work.

    2. Vegecrisp

      I use the new hogger which seems to work very well. I also use varian instead of rafaam too because you don't have to worry about losing battle crys as much

  4. xbijohx

    Dont have cairne and malkorok
    Replacement? sylvanas? Hogger terror? or gorehowl?

    1. Evident

      Sylvanas and Gorehowl seem fine.

  5. Phoenix

    What's the mulligan like?

  6. Wraith

    How to beat zoo?

    1. Geo

      Mulligan for the following:

      Fiery war axe, fierce monkey, Armorsmith

      Make sure to execute any councilmen, and survive till late game. Remember that at any time a warlock can play a Leeroy or giant, so play around that too.

    Rep for raafam? I thougt he is rly bad card so i dusted him lol

    1. Evident

      Sylvanas or a second Acolyte of Pain.

  8. kai

    any replace for Cairne Bloodhoof ? i dont have dust animore x.....x

    1. Evident

      Sylvanas would be best, but you could go second Arathi Weaponsmith if you don't have it.

    Hello, any idea what should I remove if i wanna include Harrison? I feel like its essential vs. aggro shamans

    1. Evident

      I'd cut a Kor'kron Elite.

  10. EstusFlakon

    Replacement for Rag?

    Didn´t craft him yet but thought about second Acolyth, Arathi, Elise, Alex?

    Maybe one of them?

    1. Evident

      Second Acolyte might work.

  11. DioBrando

    Obsidian Destroyer is not bad at all, and I would assume it works better than Gorehowl in this deck.

  12. Juanman

    Replacements for Cairne, I don't have him

    1. Evident

      Sylvanas or second Arathi Weaponsmith. This deck is a bit dated now, you might want to run Dragon Warrior instead.
