Standout Descent of Dragons Decks From Day 1

Descent of Dragons, the third expansion of Year of the Dragon, and finally one worthy of this Standard year's name, has been out for around 24 hours already. The set did not come with a rotation, but its power level is widely considered to be one of the highest in Hearthstone's history, so it's only natural that it completely shuffled the meta. Just after Day 1, we've already seen a bunch of new, interesting builds. But are they any good? And did we already see any huge surprises, or maybe the new Tier 1 decks are yet to be discovered?

Check out our Descent of Dragons decks for every class!

I've spent most of the last 24 hours watching pro players and adding their decks to the site (as well as playing some matches with the most promising builds myself), so I have a quite good idea of what's commonly played, which decks get to high Legend most often and what builds already look solid. Below, I'll list some of the lists that caught my attention. Just like every new expansion, remember that the early meta is very chaotic and it might look completely different in a few days. Decks are chosen based on my ladder experience, watching the steamers & pros, talking with other high ranked players and early statistics from sites like HSReplay.net.

These decks are only example lists - meta is adjusting very quickly and more optimized builds might be out at the time you're reading it! The order of decks below is not indicative of their strength.
