So i reached legend https://prnt.sc/lsf5yh with 81% winrate with this deck https://prnt.sc/lsf666 . This deck is insane i went 9/0 against hunter only lost twice to shaman, rogue,some kind of treant druid and once to warlock went 29/7 ez. It doesnt have many new cards but mass hysteria is a huge difference and the main reason i was so good against hunter (fully stacked spellstone 5 , i dont think so hunter).Give this a try and let me know what you think.
If this gets a few upvotes i can make a form of guide for it.
So i didnt check this in a while so i didnt make a guide but ill do it now.Btw i reached rank7 with this deck in legend https://prnt.sc/lu0osc .
So ill start with matchups.
1.I always keep one Shadow visions because i like the flexibility in every matchup
2.Always keep radiant +power word shield(only mulligan the radiant when you have cloning gallery in hand and a rly bad matchup which means you hope to highroll turn 9 kill)
3.Power word shield on its own is decent especially when you have mass dispell
4.Dont be afraid to use holly smite only keep it when you need to otk fast or vs too much armor(druid,warrior maybe mage)
Druid: Generally an tricky matchup you have to be carefull for him milling your cards but what it comes down to is who lands his combo first so you want to keep Spellstone and Gallery almost everytime unless you know its Token druid in which case you prefer other cards such as hysteria or scream.
Hunter. Against hunter the best thing you can do is keep mass hysteria (there is no better card than that) you usually dont want to keep spellstone unless you have mass hysteria already and usually things go down smothly in that matchup.(if you have mass hysteria you can keep any card you like)
Mage:There are 3 Scenarios:1 tempo mage you want shaddow essence ziliax and ressurect if you have zilliax.2:Odd mage you love your scream but you dont keep it you can go for spellsstones and Shadow essense and Gallery but keep in mind that you also need clear that deck has some good tempo.3 Big mage : you want essense and Gallery anything else is worse cause you need atleast 1 minion( Velen or Mallygos to not get polymporphed then you are good)try to keep holy smite because with only one minion you might need it.
Paladin:I wont tell you about odd since its getting nerfed(if its played hysteria and spirit lash are good) Against even you want scream and essense and gallery.Against otk you want same but you keep the spellsstones even Servitude maybe (not always)if you have like vivid nightmare and shadow essense.
Against priest:Turvy priest: you want scream and mass dispell to stop his draw then you should be able to land your combo first(keep spelllstone usually)Control or innerfire you want to land your combo first but have always one board clear in your hand(mass dispell is also rly good against these 2 especially inner fire priest)
Rogue:hardest matchup yet(Gladly kingsbane getting nerfed hardest matchup than any other best hope against it is to just highroll on shadow essense so you keep that and spirit lash)Odd: spirit lash and mass hysteria are your best friends mass dispell also rly good .(also dont be afraid to use holy smite as mentioned above.)
Shaman.Same deal as Big mage try holding on those holly smites they are rly good and you need them with only one minion.Basically keep essense gallery best cards against hex.(maybe need a scream).
Warlock.Aggro : you want to keep holy smite and always search for radiant elemental.Mass hysteria is awesome in this matchup and mass dispell sometimes.Control : you want to go for Shadow Essence And gallery.Similar to Shaman and Big mage he can mess up with your hand so you want your stuff to die.Even:Always search for death and mass hysteria .Without those 2 cards you are bount to lose.(mass dispell and power word shield are good to keep for draw plus silence is rly good against drakes)
Warrior:Odd should be easy just keep spellsstone and you win.Tempo/rush keep mass hysteria and maybe Shadow essense and you should be good.
As for discoveries from visions get what you need.(i rarely go for mind blasts i prefer holy smite if dmg is enough).Eternal servitude is a nice pickup when you arent vs a too aggresive opponent or when you have zilliax in hand or dead when you are facing one.
Tips for secret lethal:Always try to keep one radiant on hand for extra dmg in spellstones.
Radiant +Eternal servitude+vivid nightmare+mindblast+holysmite=28(velen) 27(malygos)
There are more but are too many keep in mind a radiant in hand is extremely important i never play 2 unless i face an aggro matchup.
Keep in mind that galery with 1 radiant in deck + a big minion + spirit last is reno in standard + board clear.
Lastly i use fairly often power word shield on opponent to get draw even in aggro matchups (sometimes sets up better hysterias)
Thats it if i forgot something or got something wrong or weird let me know this was a long list and im a sure ive done a couple of mistakes.
hi i am trying the deck and haven't had any luck i am stuck in rank 5/4 and i am only going against odd rogue and aggro or secret hunter any tips on those matchups and the deck in general?
Hello, I can share my story on how to get to legend with this deck.
I was rank 5 when I started to playing this deck. I won first 10 games and I was totally amazed how good it worked, however then I got stuck in rank 3 for like 25-30 games ( I switched to OTK Paladin, but with the same result), thats where I really learned how to pilot this deck. I finished with 7 win streak to legend. Once you learn your matchups, its easy peasy, because you know what to expect and then you just play accordingly. I ended up with the score 44-22.
Hunter is easy matchup, alwasy mulligan for Mass Hysteria (or Shadow Vision) and play patiently. Zilliax vs aggro is your biggest friend! For the Rogue matchup... just pray that Rogue didnt mulligan well, otherwise you probably loose ( You cant win them all). Malygos + Spirit Lash the best thing you can pull off against aggro, most people immediately surrender when you wipe out whole board and heal to full HP. Interesting thing was that my worst matchup was actually against Priest (1-4). Other classes I either went even, or had positive win ratio.
You can see my matchups here > https://imgur.com/lCPwNfF
Except what do you do against hunters when you don't get Hysteria or Scream even when you hard mulligan for it. The chances aren't actually that high and with luck like mine I pretty much can't even get a Hysteria even after Shadow Visioning twice. And even on scenarios where I do pull off hysteria to wipe like 3-4 minions, and then even Scream on turn 7, Hunters just seem to consistently flood their board turn after turn. Add hunter weapons/hero power into the mix and its like a 15% win rate vs hunter for me. I've been rank 3 in previous seasons, and i'm literally losing to idiot hunters who miss lethal because they used their 5 damage Kill Command on my minion instead of my face.
I have checked my HS tracker and I have 20 W - 10 L aggainst Hunter with this deck, which is 67% win rate. You see the thing aggainst Hunter is that you usually do not pull off the OTK, however all you focus on is to survive.The best combo is either Malygos + Spirit lash or Velen + Spirit lash, it allows you to clear the board and heal to full, this is where most Hunters either equip Deathstalker Rexxar or straight concede. I wish you luck in your climb to legend. Also, using Spell stone on just one minion (Zilliax, or Malygos/Velen if comboe'd with Spirit Lash) is a great option vs Hunter, Odd Rogue and other overly aggresive decks.
Games like this one is pretty much every Hunter game i face, and currently 50% of my matchups are hunters according to the tracker: https://hsreplay.net/replay/Bpppc5eyjX9HVPkDkeLsqk
What could I have done to win that game?
Just a side note: Zilliax on turn 5 + Servitude + coin + Vivid on turn 6 (if Zilliax gets traded off) is really great against Hunter
This deck is basically cheating if you play from 20 to 10... I have about an 85% winrate! (I dont play alduin and replaced it with pain)
Can this work without Zerek?
I'm assuming you mean Zerek's Cloning Gallery and not Zerek, Master Cloner. I would say, no, probably not. You need to get minions on the field without wasting mana on them (so they can die and be resurrected).
Yes it works fine. You just have to play a little more conservative to get you to the late game. Save any and all Mass Hysteria for Hunter Spellstones. Use your life as a resource more, don't be so jumpy with your boardclears; use only when absolutely necessary. I've been 31-19 without Zerek, 11-6 vs. Hunters.
Zerek pulls out minions that are still in your deck so you dont have to wait for them. I think that it is pretty important part of this deck.
playing almost the same deck but using Lyra the Sunshard instead of Zilliax and Shadow Word: Pain instead of Shadowreaper Anduin and Eternal Servitude x2
Lyra the Sunshard is a way to generate extra spells, sometimes you can get extra Mind Blast or Holy Smite what allows to otk earlier, or you can get extra Zerek's Cloning Gallery or Lesser Diamond Spellstone to maintain board presence, or extra board clears, also he helps to charge Lesser Diamond Spellstone faster.
Very interesting deck but I am a little lost how to use Zerek's Cloning Gallery
what the other reply said is true
or with 10 mana, if you have a radiant in hand, and the other, and velen, and maly in deck---play radiant, then gallery for 8. You could end up with 2 radiants so your smites and mind blasts are free and you get maly and velen.
you need to keep in mind with minions have already died, along with which are still in your deck.
be patient and always be calculating lethal each turn. sometimes just res'ing the velen with vivid nightmare is enough to win
OK. Thanks. I try to play it but if the cards does not show in the right way, it’s impossible to win against a deck with rush or strong minions.
yeah, a really fast deck can definitely be a problem especially if you dont draw well.
but his mulligan guide is pretty solid...refer to it until you get the hang of it; and keep in mind that you wont win every game :)
tips against kingsbane? My most hated nemesis and I don't think I've once against them, thinking about ff before even putting up a fight against them
Unfortunately Kingsbane Rogue is the worst matchup for this list.
Try to mulligan for Zilliax, Eternal Servitude.
Shadow Essence if you're lucky enough to summon Malygos can full heal you at 8 mana with Spirit Lash.
Let's see what happens now that Leeching Poison has been nerfed, https://www.hearthpwn.com/forums/hearthstone-general/general-discussion/227961-new-nerfs-confirmed , hopefully things will change :D
kingsbane going nerf so i think we need to see how the nerf is going to affect them....
