Proven Top Tier Decks from the Hearthstone Pros
We've got four great decks to share with you that various pros of the game have been playing up in Legend with great success. If you aren't already seeing these decks, expect them real soon!
Apxvoid's Fungalmancer Secret Mage
Apxvoid initially took the deck from Rank 5 up to Rank 1 but then made it all the way to top 100 Legend in a second play session. He thinks this style of mage may be optimal though is considering cutting Sorcerer's Apprentice. Zoo gets destroyed by the deck with other flavors of Warlock you'll see out there the matchup is closer to 50-50.

Zorkthar's Dragon / Big Spell Priest
I've personally been playing this list though I've subbed in Harrison Jones over Acidic Swamp Ooze. It's clear that people hate me when they drag their turns out or just get up and leave. If you want a nice guide to the deck, you should check out a similar list from Hyeri.

Right. A couple weeks ago I heard someone saying that once Corridor Creeper and Bonemare were nerfed that Fungalmancer would take over as the tempo card of choice. At first I thought it was a joke. But now that I'm thinking about it, it creates a lot of tempo. The fact that you are buffing other minions means it's an immediate 4 damage on board if you have minions for it. Right now you could make some key surprise trades with it since the card isn't popular at the moment. If it does get popular it won't have quite the same impact. Once turn 7 became the "bonemare turn" it wasn't quite as good since players would try to clear the board on the turn prior.
OTK Paly actually counters aggro, so if they do it is actually good for Thisjs' deck... pyro-equality, Consecration, Spikeridged Steed and Righteous Protector are as good against aggro as ever, and then you have 15 healing in DK...
Finally DudePally. I was waiting for so long...
What do you mean "finally" before nerfs they were already showing up... Muzzy's list seems to be more optimized, but still not like it is something new... I played Dude Paly at 3-5 rank most of the January myself... I especially like how Equality, Sunkeeper Tarim, Level Up! and Lightfused Stegodon can counter Voidlord or 4...
Wait a minute! Is OTK paladin top tier deck? This must be a dream!
Yep a solid tier 2 deck. Kripp even cut Burgly Bully for some memes and still reached rank 4 with it... (like it is hard to pull of exodia without coins, but memes like Yogg-Saron, Hope's End sometimes randomly won him the games that are 100% lost otherwise)
I really need to try out OTK Paladin... feels bad spending 1600 dust for Auctionmaster Beardo but fuck it
Sames. F it looks like a fun deck
I really want to try it too but I'm missing 2 call to arms and tirion, I have plenty of dust though and crafting those cards is probably worth it anyway since they're so strong on their own. Plus I'll finally get some use out of my beardo!
Tyrion will forever be a must in Paladin and the same goes for Call to Arms until it rotates probably, let's do this!
I Spend it and I love it :D
WHERE IS NOOBLOCK?
Zoolock and Cubelock are mediocre tier 2 decks... Control lock is so much countered in meta that it is below 50% winrate already...
I am still matched against warlock for 25% exactly..
surely there were more interesting decks by the pros that easily reached legend than this. this more looks like a 'things you already see on ladder in casual matchup for some reason' rather than something worth writing home about.
