try to keep a board and face is the place... it's a race with obstacles, the highlander will put a lot of obstacles, you win the race by ending his life points... it's a very balanced match up for me... the thing is who has the right cards to win the game...
I've made some changes also, but I went in another direction, I felt the deck was lacking some early game board presence, so I decided to give a more agressive look to the deck,
It helps me control the board in the early game without having to trade my minions, helping me to build it to a more advantageous mid game. It also adds some sinergy with Tunnel Trogg, wich in my opinion is one of the greatest 1 drops in HS history.
Besides that, Lightning Bolt is also a great burst to get that last feel damage you need to finish the game earlier.
I gave it a try at rank 11. Very fun indeed, but it's not very consistent, 50% wr in 6 matches. I have just changed 1 x Leyline and 1 x Molten by 2 x Loot hoaders.
Leyline is a combo piece, but if you draw 2 of them, one turns into a average 4 mana minion that does not do anything usefull for the deck at all.
Molten Core is a situational card, that may or may not help you. If you draw both you are most likely to endup with 2 dead cards in hand untill the end of the game
Added loot hoarder because I thought some extra cycle would help me completing the combo.
Did not try the changes yet, but I let you know if it works out.
I really think this deck is interesting. but I simply can't force myself to believe this win-rate... at which rank did you play this deck? In such an agressive meta, can you really stack enough armor for yip to be of any help? I get that the deck has a lot of removals but Hunters for an example fill and refill the board pretty easly currently. I'm thinking about giving it a chance any way, just wanted some more details on the game plan, is yip the only win condition?
I definetelly like it, but by what I have been seeing in the (non existent at the moment) meta Harrison Jones is a dead weight... I'm thinking about replacing him with Cobalt Scalebane or another copy of Bonemare.
There surely will be situations in which I would really like I had not removed harris, but untill now, there have been many more situation in which I am not happy when I waste a draw on him. Maybe when people get more used to the wepons effects he will be of better use.
This is fun!! When you pull out the combo your opponent always kill the first and points at your face, as if he was going to attack your hero, then, the realization comes... he takes a long time thinking, and finally, concedes... In the mean time, you keep wondering what your opponent is thinking!! Thanks dude!
I have played like 15 games with this deck untill now... I didn't lose 1 game against a deck that is not a Rogue. But I lost almost all the games against rogues... what am I doing wrong? Like, I won 1 game against a Rogue... and it was a lucky game...
I know it is a big change, and that Lyra the Sunshard is meant to give you resources for the OTK. I think about the Cabal Shadow Priest as board resource generator. Or Alexstrasza as a OTK enabler on turn 10 with Inner Fire on some other Dragons I may have been able to keep on board.
I have little experience wih Dragon priest, but I have been playing it lattely with some success and it's been very efficient on regarding board control.

I can't see this deck being competitive at all, but man this surely looks like a ton of fun, great idea!

I've made some changes also, but I went in another direction, I felt the deck was lacking some early game board presence, so I decided to give a more agressive look to the deck,
-2 x Fire Fly / +2 x Jade Claws
-2 x Totemic Might / +2 x Lightning Bolt
It helps me control the board in the early game without having to trade my minions, helping me to build it to a more advantageous mid game. It also adds some sinergy with Tunnel Trogg, wich in my opinion is one of the greatest 1 drops in HS history.

Currently 9-1 with my current version.

Looks like fun, at which rank did you play this deck?

I really understand the value of BMT, however, althouth not as good as BMT, TZ do the job when it comes to defile the board or hell fire for the win.
I'm going to craft Oakheart and then I craft BMT as soon as I can.
I'm thinking about replacing Rin with lich king as it can give me some handy tools for the late game.
I wasn't very lucky this season, but I love control lock!

I don't have Master Oakheart, Rin, the First Disciple, and Bloodmage Thalnos [/card]. BmT is easily replaceable by another [card]Tainted Zealot. I don't think MO can be repleaced. Does this deck still work w/o Rin?

Does it work w/o Rin? I don't have her and don't feel like crafting her... What would you put in her place?

forget it, I've just seen the deck has Vulgar Homunculus, and it makes the Prince Keleseth utterly useless

What would you remove for Zola the Gorgon? I know it's a long shot, but... who knows?

What would you suggest for me to put in the place of Lyra the Sunshard, I don't have it. Maybe Cabal Shadow Priest? Or Alexstrasza?
