A Collection of Five Fantastic Hearthstone Pro Decks - January 8, 2018
We've got five decks from Hearthstone's pros that are performing well in the meta and can be found at the top of the ladder. If you're looking for something new to give a shot, try one of these five decks! If you haven't yet crafted yourself some Corridor Creepers, Monsanto's Aggro Druid doesn't make use of them as he says it never helped him out if his minions all died.
If you're heading on up to Legend, keep us posted in our Headed to Legend threads so we can follow your journey and share tips with each other.

I'm gonna test the druid one
I just mean, da hell this game design when each new meta 4 out of 9 classes are either unplayable or need some weird 15+k decks (which are actually unplayable). And there is exactly rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spok win dependency between remaining viable 5, with very few options for versatility in your tech choices vs opponents.
And atm, only Warlock can have some tech options in meta, but again only because Bloodreaver Gul'dan can grant survivability+tempo+value in one card. So I can't give current Warlock decks much 'versatility' points because of that.
The only good thing - a bit less of an aggro. May be Just a bit in fact, but feels like a lot.
Good decks
So much snore. When's the next xpac?
I miss playing warrior.

Im so bored of cubelock already. You either roll them quickly, or you lose.
IDK, cubelock can be really easily countered by silence and ooze, so they are forced now to play n`zoth to have any changes to win against good teched slow deck. As for me, highlander priest is way more retarded, cause among slow decks only druid can survive the combo (or quest mage can kill priest with great amount of luck, but quest mage in general is meh in this meta) and you can counter priest only by pulling out raza or velen (and even velen is not always enough to win), darkness not that good against priest as it looks, because this is 4 mana do nothing and this is not full garant of destroying combo, just delaying. After destroying warlocks weapon you can be sure, that he will not have super insane burst in one turn with empty board. Priest not relies on board at all and this is really frustrating as for me.
Reading your comment makes my eyes hurt.
Or did it make your nose bleed? Ohoooo
Haha yeah, that too. That is actually where I got my alias
Monsanto's list is the only "original-ish" list here... I would probably keep the Corridor Creepers though.
Then they shouldn't staple player names to the decks. Most pro players hit legend in the first couple days each month, and most of them with these exact lists. 3 out of 5 of these are strongly considered "standard lists" at this point. What makes these 5 players more special than the other hundreds of top legend players? If you are going to showcase a player with a specific deck, at least make it an original list...
It's silly that a few players take credit for the ''meta'' decks that have been perfected in the first week after the new expansion.
So... what do you consider a tier one "honorable" deck, or a skill-testing one? It seems like you're more angry at the basic mechanics of this game than these specific decks, which is perfectly valid but... why play it then?
No one cares who gets "credit" for a deck. No matter who posted it first, hundreds or thousands of other people had the exact same idea at the exact same time. In many cases, the set of cards released will lead deckbuilders most of the way toward the end result anyway.
When a prominent player's name gets attached to a certain deck, I see it more as this person endorsing this particular list and preferring to use it over other, similar lists. I doubt any of these people gives half a shit whether you believe they actually came up with the deck in question.
Less than 20 new cards in these decks. Guess that's what happens when you push releasing a bunch of xpacs and need filler cards.
