Just hit legend again today  Completely accidentally. Climbed the ladder almost entirely with eureka shaman (but I switched to secret mage for the last 3 games). Literally 100 games with this version of eureka shaman, actual 66-34 record. Super fun deck to play. I should do a writeup at some point because the deck is awesome ### Eureka Shaman # Class: Shaman # Format: Wild # Year of the Phoenix # # 2x (0) Lightning Bloom # 1x (1) Devolving Missiles # 2x (1) Lightning Bolt # 2x (2) Ancestral Spirit # 2x (2) Devolve # 2x (3) Far Sight # 2x (3) Lightning Storm # 2x (4) Ancestor's Call # 2x (4) Torrent # 2x (5) Hagatha's Scheme # 2x (5) Muckmorpher # 2x (6) Eureka! # 2x (8) Walking Fountain # 2x (9) Runaway Blackwing # 2x (10) Scrapyard Colossus # 1x (10) Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound # AAEBAaoIAqirAuDMAw6UA/kD9QSyBs4P9r0Cn/0CrZEDipQDj5QDk7kD87sD8NQDlOQDAA== # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone # Generated by HDT - https://hsreplay.net

Anyone playing quest rogue in wild: Try pen flinger out, it's an absolutely fantastic way to activate quest on turn 2-3 if you draw any of your cheap spells.

So wild has a new Play Every Giant celestial alignment deck. I've hit it 5 times so far. Just alignment then play 1-3 giants a turn til the game is over. I have beaten them with even mage 4 of those 5 times by heropowering down every single giant even after getting my Mana reset to 0. Deck is insanely fun. This is my current list: ### even Mage v2 # Class: Mage # Format: Wild # # 2x (2) Book of Specters # 2x (2) Explosive Sheep # 2x (2) Fallen Hero # 2x (2) Garrison Commander # 2x (2) Ice Walker # 2x (2) Manafeeder Panthara # 2x (2) Spirit of the Dragonhawk # 2x (2) Starscryer # 2x (2) Wildfire # 2x (4) Bone Wraith # 2x (4) Reckless Apprentice # 2x (4) Tournament Medic # 1x (4) Varden Dawngrasp # 1x (6) Coldarra Drake # 1x (6) Genn Greymane # 2x (10) Frost Giant # 1x (10) Mordresh Fire Eye # AAEBAaXDAwTN9ALY7AOd7gPBoAQN0BPVE48U3M0Czu8CrYcD8qUD97gD+84D0+wD1uwDwKAE1aAEAA== # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone It's about 50/50 with the bullshit paladin deck and just about even with secret mage, but roflstomps most other things I hit. You wanna mulligan for wildfire, fallen hero, and ice walker mostly. If you're against a dude deck you want spirit, explosive sheep, and garrison commander. If you're vs secret mage Tournament Medic and Garrison Commander are critical. Medic to check for explosive runes then heal a bit, then if it lives you drop commander and gain a bunch of life, or they burn 8 damage on it that otherwise would go to your face. If you're vs control mull for book of specters and starscryer. Your endgame is to get Coldarra drake down with 2x buffed hero power to 12 them on 10 mana for your burst damage finish. The worst cards in the deck are Manafeeder Panthera and Bone wraith, but I don't know what to replace them with yet.

Jolly Jumbuck posted:This is a powerful and fun deck, thanks! I've since cut the 2 wraiths for 2 secret hate minions. Right now it's split between the one that kills all secrets and buffs itself and the one that steals a secret. The paladin bullshit deck and secret mage are the hardest matchups and both are full of secrets. and you get the side benefit of now being to kill all the memers trying to mozaki mage win with a single ice block. Still haven't found something for Panthera though.

obi_ant posted:If I'm a dirty net-decker and I only plan to play standard, would it make sense for me to dust all of my older sets? I have some cards from Goblins vs Gnomes, The Grand Tournament and Whispers of the Old Gods that I would love to get rid of and get some dust to build some other net-decks. I only noticed I had these cards when I was dusting my gold cards that I don't use. Also noticed that I have a bunch of Legacy cards, which used to be Core, I'm assuming I can dust these bad boys as well? You could so that, but 2 years from now when you're sick of standard changing and you want to play wild you'll regret it. (I did exactly what you're saying you want to do and have recrafted most of what I dusted in the first place).

I keep getting to diamond 1 3 stars and then tanking back to diamond 2  (in wild because standard is a miserable dumpster fire right now)Last night I was riding a 5 game winstreak and the stupid renolock opponent managed to roll a ~1/10 odds twice in a row to raise dead zephrys twice and nuke my board and he killed me while at 1 life.

If you want shaman decks for the quest this is the deck I've played the most of any deck in this dumb bad game ever: ### Eureka Shaman # Class: Shaman # Format: Wild # # 2x (0) Lightning Bloom # 1x (1) Devolving Missiles # 2x (1) Lightning Bolt # 2x (2) Ancestral Spirit # 2x (2) Devolve # 2x (3) Far Sight # 2x (3) Lightning Storm # 2x (4) Ancestor's Call # 2x (4) Torrent # 2x (5) Hagatha's Scheme # 2x (5) Muckmorpher # 2x (6) Eureka! # 2x (8) Walking Fountain # 2x (9) Runaway Blackwing # 2x (10) Scrapyard Colossus # 1x (10) Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound # AAEBAZyrBAKoqwLgzAMOlAP5A/UEsgbOD/a9Ap/9Aq2RA4qUA4+UA5O5A/O7A/DUA5TkAwA= # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone It has insane high rolls, and you can play a mediocre control deck til you start slamming threat after threat in the lategame. Always mulligan for y'shaarj, a muckmorpher, ancestors call and lightning bloom. A single fatty on turn 1/2 just ends most games against anyone but priest.

Toshimo posted:The Darkmoon prizes are stupid and bad and shouldn't have been brought back, even in a limited form. New Recruit is still the head-and-shoulders best one on T1, with the Gold and refresh ones being ok, and the rest rear end. The T2 ones are way more situational, so it doesn't even matter what your opponent took, because their board/level/shop/gameplan aren't yours, so you probably weren't offered/don't want the same one they do. T3 and T4 are super swingy and, again, situational, so there's no clear answer. Counterpoint: the Darkmoon prizes make the game 10x more fun because every hero gets a second neat thing they can do every 4 turns to make the games different.

BIG HEADLINE posted:poo poo you can't defend against, like a 20+ whack to the face (or two) from a Silas/Switch/Shield Slam play. Or spell mage having tons of clears and a 10 damage Arcane Missiles card and ALL THE DRAW IN THE loving UNIVERSE. I feel like a lot of these issues would be fixed if there was more hand or deck interaction. Only being able to impact the board for the most part is obnoxious. Pretty much only demon hunter has the tools to interact with the hand in standard and they never do because their other cards are just so much better.

orangelex44 posted:I think most of the quests are a bit overtuned. Nearly every one can be consistently completed by turn 7 (except for Priest, because of course not). That's too early IMO; I understand that aggro decks can get under that curve and win anyway but it's loving annihilating any semblance of a control deck. The closest I've seen to a reasonable winrate "control" deck is... handbuff pally? Maybe quest warrior because it doesn't technically kill you within one turn of completion? Even then it's an absurd meta, since handbuff paladin would easily be considered a midrange deck at basically any other time in the game's history. I think you're ignoring the best control deck in the format: Quest Mage. It's the definition of a combo-control list. Contests the board, deals with the enemy until you resolve your threat (quest reward) then turn the corner and quickly win the game. It's exactly what you're asking for I think.

orangelex44 posted:Quest Mage isn't really control IMO. …….If you're routinely killing the opponent before you have full mana crystals, I don't think I can consider it a control deck. It is definitely a hybrid combo/control. But I would say it’s more a control deck than a combo deck. The entire list is built around not dying until you get your win con online. Flame walker OTK mage is just a pure combo deck because you dont really contest the board or delay the opponent at all, you just combo yourself. With quest mage you’re often winning at 20-30 health rather than 2 because you have much better tools for fighting aggro decks. I disagree that a requirement of control decks being you must be slow/get to 10 mana crystals. You play the control role for the first 3/4 of the game then kill them as a combo deck. I also love durdley control decks, but they’re not the only way to play a control deck.

orangelex44 posted:Combo decks are built around not dying until you get you win con online. Control decks are built around value generation. Warrior Quest having an endless supply of weapons/minions/poke damage is controlling, whereas Mage Quest turning your burn damage into more burn damage is still combo. I strongly disagree. I said it's a hybrid combo/control deck with imo a strong leaning towards the control side. Unlike most combo decks quest mage interacts with the opponent at every turn and I'd argue the definition of "control decks finish with big mana finishers" is a bad definition. Control decks win via inevitability, which sometimes comes from out-valuing your opponent every turn, but this deck has virtually infinite removal and eventually just cycles ignites til the opponent dies. Just because you *can* win before turn 20 doesn't mean you're not a control deck with inevitability. This thread (not specifically you) has been bitching they control decks didn't have a fast win condition for as long as I've been reading it and we finally have a control deck capable of ending the game once it stabilizes and everyone hates it lol.

Y'all are just fundamentally misunderstanding what a "control" deck is. Control decks are just that, designed to control the game and board until they can land a threat that goes over the top of whatever the opponent does and use that to kill them, typically with some sort of inevitability. Whether that comes in the form of just bigger threats, or recursive boards etc. Quest mage is the single best control deck ever in the history of the game. It plays 1 card to win the game with and the rest of the deck is interaction with the opponents board, then eventually the face, and it has inevitability via ignites to win the long game if you end up in a topdeck vs topdeck situation. This is the most fun to play in best standard metagame ever. For once it's more fun than wild. There's just so many fun powerful decks available to play across all classes. One thing kibler got right in his video though is theres basically 0 interaction with the opponents hand possible at all and that sucks for everyone. Only demon hunter has any at all I think besides mutanus which is too slow.

Tuxedo Gin posted:Look up literally every definition of control deck on the first page of search results. Those decks are not control decks. Literally the first result from googling control deck: https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Control_deck quote:A control deck is a term for a deck of (usually sixty) cards that aims to control the opponent's cards and progression with, ideally, the end result where one has full control of everything that is done during the game. Control decks typically get their edge through card advantage. They are very powerful and present in virtually every format in the game.[1][2][3][4][5] Quest mage meets every single part of this definition of a control deck. Yes it has combo elements too as the finisher. I pointed that out like day 2 of the expansion in this thread. Yes, this is from an MTG resource, but hearthstone terminology is all stolen from MTG anyways and the principles are the same.

The rustrot viper is just sorta there, it could probably be anything though. I'm considering swapping it for secret hate given the prevalence of secret mage. Mulligan for crystallizer, runed mithril rod and hand of guldan vs everyone else. Essentially you want to get to a point where you have 3-4 hand of guldan in hand and an empty library, typically around turn 6-7 then cataclysm and deal between 50 and 100 fatigue damage to your opponent in a single turn. With cost discounts on backfires and soularium you can even hit 20-25 overdraws sometimes in a single turn.
