Scourge Illusionist has single-handedly infused the existing Mine Rogue deck with Ungoro Quest Rogue. You can flood the board fairly early with lots of 0- or 1-mana 4/4s, threatening lethal either by attacking face or exploding for even more damage. So it plays a lot differently and has a bit of a learning curve, but it's strong (may end up as a Diamond+ type deck). ### MLK Mine # Class: Rogue # Format: Standard # Year of the Hydra # # 2x (0) Preparation # 1x (0) Shadow of Demise # 2x (1) Blackwater Cutlass # 1x (1) Door of Shadows # 2x (1) Ghostly Strike # 2x (1) Gone Fishin' # 2x (1) Shattershambler # 2x (2) Forsaken Lieutenant # 2x (2) Naval Mine # 2x (3) Sketchy Information # 2x (3) Snowfall Graveyard # 2x (4) Counterfeit Blade # 2x (4) Scourge Illusionist # 2x (4) Swiftscale Trickster # 2x (5) Burning Blade Acolyte # 2x (8) Smokescreen # AAECAaIHAvTdBMygBQ716APT8wON9AO9gAT3nwT8pQT9rASIsAS3swTVtgSJ0gTj0wShkwXBoQUA # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone # Generated by HDT - https://hsreplay.net

My Rager Priest just folds against Miracle Rogue. Turn 3 I drop a Scourge Rager, coin Animate Dead. Turn 4 my enemy creates 2 12/12s and equips a 11/2 dagger. I imitate Scourge Rager's battlecry and die.

Also the game puts 3 DK decks in your collection to use that are probably not optimised and people will be using them to try out the class.

It's basic but I've been on a tear with Imp Warlock today - I went 15-3 climbing up from the bottom of Silver to Gold 10. Sylvanas is there to remove or steal Gnome Munchers from DKs. Denathrius just got nerfed so he might get replaced with another Impfestation to add another board clear, but we'll see. I took out the Dreadlich Tamsin that appears in most of these decks because I found it just led to me taking fatigue damage more often than not. ### Implock # Class: Warlock # Format: Standard # Year of the Hydra # # 2x (1) Flame Imp # 2x (1) Flustered Librarian # 2x (1) Grimoire of Sacrifice # 2x (1) Voidwalker # 2x (1) Wicked Shipment # 2x (2) Imp Swarm (Rank 1) # 2x (2) Impending Catastrophe # 2x (2) Vile Library # 2x (3) Fiendish Circle # 2x (3) Imp Gang Boss # 2x (4) Mischievous Imp # 2x (4) Murlocula # 2x (5) Shady Bartender # 1x (6) Imp King Rafaam # 1x (6) Impfestation # 1x (6) Sylvanas, the Accused # 1x (10) Sire Denathrius # AAECAc++BQSukQTp0ASb5ASk7wQN1+0D9O0D//oDxYAEhKAE5qAE+dME+tME/9kEgNoEgdoEy+IEq+oEAA== # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone

Update: I just finished a ~25 minute game of 3x Blood DK mirror, and it definitely counted all the undeads that time. Finally knocked out my opponent with a 24x Denathrius on turn 22.

Non-troll question. I played this game again for the first time in a while and like any returners was blown away by how many stats every deck could put on the board while refilling their hand and staying at 40 (!) life. When you play the game, is it even possible to play around opponents' cards outside of a few outliers? Or are you mostly focused on advancing your own board state?

Theotar, Mutanius, and Patchwerk are pretty important right now mostly for attempting to stop your opponent's combos.

Yeah recent hand disruption mechanics make playaroud super important. Also the infuse mechanic encourages you to keep some cards in hand for a long time increasing the chance of disruption. Eg the main demon hunter deck right now only has 3 minions. One of them (xymox) you need to keep in hand while 5 of your generated minions die. The most common opponent deck I've faced with it this week (control demon knight) has potentially 3 different ways to ruin your hand (mutanis, theotar and patchwork). Or any deck using denathrius as a finisher (or any combo gimmick really) is super vulnerable to the same stuff. Mage also has a counter minion as well as counter spell. Hunter has really disruptive powerful secrets. avantgardener fucked around with this message at 23:03 on Dec 9, 2022 |

Am I crazy for thinking about cutting Xymox from Relic DH? It seems like he's too slow for the faster matchups and in the slower ones he needs to hang out in your hand as the only possible minion to get snyped by Mutanus or Patchwork.
