Hello everybody, I'm back, plot twist i never went away ZEHAHAHHAHAHAA.
This time with another deck i used to get legend.
This version was originally created by fateos, make sure to check out his stream at:
http://www.twitch.tv/fateos
Win ratio from rank 3 to legend was 85%.
First i will give you a quick explanation of the deck.
So you can play very aggresively since you willl usually draw into Force of Nature + Savage Roar within turn 9, sometimes if you can Innervate you can even have lethal on turn 7. But more to come in the video.
DECK SPOTLIGHT
Proof to TOP 50
You usually mulligan for cards like Wild Growth, Innervate against every class.
But let's be a bit more specific.
AGGRO
This deck is pretty good against aggro, if you stabilize it's almost impossible to lose.
You want cards like Innervate and Wild Growth but Wrath, Piloted Shredder and Sen'jin Shieldmasta.
In late game you can always heal yourself up with cards like Ancient of Lore and Alexstrasza.
Swipe is really important against Paladin, because there are cards like Muster for Battle, against Hunter because you can target an Undertaker while killing other minions like Leper Gnome, Clockwork Gnome, Webspinner and so on, and also against Zoo, because Implosion is sick.
Also! if you Innervate a Keeper of the Groove on turn two, and killing a minion is probaly a game winning scenario.
CONTROL
Against control every card is important esepcially Shade of Naxxramas and Azure Drake, against Warrior you also keep Ancient of Lore.
So those were the the mulligans, now lets go to some matchups.
Every match is pretty easy, the worst are probably aggro like Hunter and Zoo (if you have a bad hand) and also Handlock, against Handlock you have to keep them at around 14-17 Hp so he cant spam Molten Giants and you could kill him anytime with Savage Roar + some minions, if you have Big Game Hunter and Double Swipe you push for damage.
When playing against control this deck is amazing! Priest and Warrior are basically free wins (100 % win ratio against them).
If you have any suggestions or if you want to learn more about the deck make sure to watch the youtube video!
Until next time, bye bye.

Update this BRO!
I just had to replace sylvanas for harrison jones, because the amount of miracle rogue in my rank is just crazy
Neat deck.
I'd say that its standard 2 Combos Druid version.
Cant imagine what card to sub to make this archetype better.
Subbed in Cenarius for Alexstrasza since i dont have her but the deck still works greats. Awesome deck thanks.
I replaced Black Knight with ragnaros and its doing pretty fine
Got Alexstrasza the other day and was looking for a druid deck to play it in over Cenarius since I don't have it and most decks run him. Thanks for this! climbed from rank 20 to rank 13 in a couple hours of play! very fun :) +1
Any suggestion on how to replace [card]Alexstrasza[/card] and the The Black Knight? I added +1 Piloted Shredded and +1 MCT
>> This deck is pretty good against aggro
Absolutely the worst against aggro. No wrath, swipe in hand for first 4 turns ? - sry you're dead
Always kill control with this deck
Always lose to agro with this deck
;)
Way too often is my cheapest card 5 mana ; P
Any changes in the new meta Brodos?
I was thinking of replacing BGH for a MCT, and Alex for Cent
I'm still running this deck over newer post nerf ramp druids because double combo is so awesome. However, I've been considering swapping Alexstrasza for Cenarius because it could help play defense later on and since you can double savage you don't really always need the opponent at 15hp. Just my experience though. Still a very good list for laddering this season!
I litteraly went from rank 19 to 9 today, only thing i changed was one Piloted Shredder for one MC Tech.
Mech Tech wins so many games in this stupid Dr.Boom meta.
Still testing it out, but I find big game hunter to be all but useless
Almost everyone runs Dr Boom, seems to come in handy quite often. There's been plenty of games where I lose because my boom gets Bgh'd and I can't find my own BGH for their boom.
There is something wrong with the matchmaking system. When I play Hunter, i face nothing but control decks and get stalled at 4/5. So, I decide to try this deck, and guess what, I face nothing but hunters.
edit: realizing I'm not doing justice to this deck, which seems fun and versatile and pretty good. But, against hunter, if you can't do much for turn 1-3 it seems like game over already.
Going to try the Sludge Belcher as suggested below by Starkloyal.
Hey Brodos, im really having troubles with hunters, any replacement to improve the matchup?
Brodos: i did some testing and currently running this
The farseers are really nice since they mitigate damage. Bomb Lobber is a nice card that can help you regain tempo. I often found that taunts are too unreliable when you're behind, since the aggro decks can silence them and keep smashing your face.
Tell me what you think about it if you can test it. It's mainly until the Undertaker nerf and see if i can make the final push to legend (rank 4 2 stars now), then we'll see what happens
Just made it legend with this awesome deck!
I ran Cenarius because I don't have Alex and a swapped one drake for a sludge belcher as it slightly improved chances vs hunters.
The deck easily beats warrior, priest, shaman, mages and handlock but obviously needs to get lucky to beat aggro.

Ancient of Lore is an absolute necessity for most Druid decks. The 2 cards or 5 health help me in every single game.
About Harrison Jones, if you have a bad matchup vs. Warrior then yeah, it's usually good. He can cripple hunters for a bit too (and does so better than Loatheb) but then Loatheb allows for such amazing setups if you already have combo in hand.. Harrison Jones couldn't possibly compete with that.
Be hard pressed to run a druid deck without the ancient of lores, they are too essential.
I'd say your matchup versus warrior is already a good one and loatheb is great for the mirror to prevent the combo or protect your board for the combo next turn. I didn't miss Harrison.
