more versatile OTK turn, mostly. the innervates aren’t required for the combo, and can be used to shoot through your deck. it feels really flexible compared to the normal combo.

Just so we’re on the same page, you’re convinced a deck that got piloted to #15 legend is terrible?

that’s step one, basically. after that you want to make as much use of either before your opponent has a chance to remove them. in howlfiend’s case you want to try and set up a really strong defile (mecharoo and patron are great for this) to wreck their hand. fel reaver just wants you to play as many cards as possible thaurissan helps with this, obviously.

beyond that, try and control the board as best you can until you’re able to set up your power turn with howlfiend or reaver.

Ah yes here’s the obligatory comment where someone who hasn’t played the deck thinks they know more than the person who piloted it to legend

because fizzles are real

it always amuses the heck out of me how someone can come on here and act like they know what they’re talking about and say a deck that hit #1 legend is a “trash deck” okay guy

Blizzard literally said that the deck got a 63% winrate and made it to legend. I’m more inclined to believe that you don’t understand it.

it looks like a deck someone piloted to legend

It’s 8 mana for a 4/7, a 5/5, 5 armor, 5 damage to a random target, and drawing 5 cards! That’s worth having 2 of imo

Somebody piloted it to legend with a 70% winrate. Don’t take this the wrong way, but have you considered that instead of the deck being rubbish that you might not be playing it right?

Ramp up, draw cards, use spells to kill minions, chaincast jade idol over and over and over and over.

which would only reinforce my point but okay

if you went 0-7 with a deck someone else was able to pilot to legend, how can you not say you’re not as good piloting the deck?

i can unequivocally prove that this is a deck.

“I lose a lot with a deck that made #1 legend, obviously the deck is terrible”

look into the black knight (great against arthas and all the taunts) and a big game hunter (also good against arthas but also against other big bads). if you’re tight on dust then spellbreakers are an excellent choice too.

it’s a really good card right now. kills LK and anything buffed by bonemare.

maybe moat lurker?

this is not a tier 1 deck for starters. however, it is certainly a fun deck. you want to use mukla/coldlight/naturalize/brewmaster to fill up their hand and make them lose important cards. meanwhile, you’re ramping up to 10 and fulfilling your quest so you can draw stupid cards with nourish and UI so you can play rude cards for free.

it’s… beautiful

I’m enjoying this quite a lot so far.
