Hi I'm Talaria, a HS player from Portugal. I just wanted to share the list I've hit legend with this season (March), in just 120 games, a Dragon Warrior deck.
I also happen to be up for voting for HGG so if you're Portuguese and you don't mind, you would have my gratitude :)
Follow me on TWITTER for stats, decklists and more. And follow me on TWITCH for streams (starting next week).
Legend proof - check twitter for stats
Its what Xerah81 said, you could add Gromash because you want to be able to finish your games if you don't have Deathwing to fall onto, but you also need to keep the dragon count up and add another enabler for Gromash and thus it would change the deck more than it is desirable. I'm not saying its not doable, I'm just saying I don't see a good way to do it.
You can try running only 7 dragons and dropping ghoul for 2nd ichor but the deck will be less consistent.
I tried a few alternatives, as I don't have Deathwing. I haven't played enough games yet to know if it's working, but the best for me so far has been replacing Deathwing with one Faerie Dragon. I know it sounds crazy because the little one doesn't do the same thing at all. However, it does give you an alternate early game approach against Jade druid, who often don't have many minions early and cannot Wrath it. It's also an activator.
Obviously, it's not at all an ideal replacement, but it might be better than Gromm plus an activator. That just seems to change the deck a bit too much.
Very similar (and working before nerf) deck was here:
That is a deck made with a different version of the game. There are so many decks out there that making exact new ones is impossible.
This is a good view because now we know that this dragon warrior version can work with a new meta.
Don't you think that maybe someone who actually played from R16 to legend early in the season would know better than just what you "think"?
Just a curious question.... Was wondering why you were running patches with just 2 pirates in the deck.... Also with those 2 pirates, is the 1 attack weapon they give even warrant having them in the deck? Wouldn't having something like ooze and faerie dragons be more consistent?
1. We don't have enough 1-drops without them and a First Mate pulling Patches and giving you a 1/3 weapon is currently the best 1-drop in the game.
2. Even 1 atk weapons are strong because they bridge the gap between the damage you need and the damage you have access too, and 4 weapons isn't too many weapons.
You should be able to see that a single charge of my 1/3 weapon and a trade with Patches kills your Faerie Dragon.
Just tried it out for an hour and a half, went 8-2, lost only to Renolock who played Dirty rat on 2 and had every single card he needed, and Jade Druid who quickly grew their golems up to 6 health. Not a big data span but I think that now, after nerf, the meta could be returning back to Old Gods meta where Midrange ruled and Dragon warrior was very powerful Tier 1 deck.
Thanks!
// btw, if you're playing on EU, could you add me to friends? Would love to see you play this deck. My BattleTag is awkee#21488
Sure thing, glad its working for you!
About adding you, I really shouldn't because I keep having to delete people over tournament requests. If you want to watch me play try to catch a stream but I can't promise regular streams yet...
Great deck. 26-10 with this list so far over the past 2 nights. Amazing to see win percentages of the entire climb rather than just 10 games from rank 16 to 10.
Most trouble decks are dragon priest and getting high rolled by T5 finja is tough.
I'm glad its working for you! Thanks for the support :)
i see gold in your future
I believe that it's just a coincidence, but it really looks like this deck http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/719699-legend-draggro-seerdoo
congrats, btw
I don't know how to reply to this, maybe you believe that this guy created the dragon warrior archetype? I am sharing a list that works atm, because meta changes and this has value in itself, I am not even sure why I am wasting 1 minute replying to your ignorant comment.
I didn't mean to offend you and to be rude or smth, just said that this list is already posted. There is no doubt that deck is doing well and there was't any sarcasm in my congratulations, fast legend is really great achievement.
