How to play the deck:
- First of all, thanks everyone for upvoting. I didn't really expected that much of views and I was overwhelmed with work, so I hadn't time to write the guide.
- The idea behind this deck is kinda simple - you play mostly Mid-Range/Tempo deck, with the advantage of handbuffing your minions therefore going very wide on the board.
- As of now the deck could use some replacements as I feel it, as it is performing kinda bad against aggro-to-mid decks and cube lock (Aggro Paladin is worst matchup with 26 % WR on Rank 3 - Legend).
-
The idea behind Drygulch: As it is very weak tempo minion in a tempo deck in a most important 2 slot spot in it, you must definitely be asking this question. The Drygulch reasons are following: 1, It makes your Handbuffs MUCH better; 2, It makes your Tarim better; 3, It makes your Corridor Creeper more likely to activate earlier; 4, It can help finding target for ValAnyr and Dinosizes).
- The idea behind ValAnyr + Copy: Now this is kinda cool and fun :) There is already plenty great targets for ValAnyr, sometimes you will success in landing your ValAnyr buff on either Saronite Chain Gang or Dopellgangster, which will make your ValAnyr Deathrattle bounce to all copied minions, which is obviously ridicolously strong, as the ValAnyr will keep buffin your hand, if opponent will AoE the board and you will dont get silence on it :) (take care of Mass Dispel).
- Young Dragonfury and Corpsetakers: The reason behind Dragonfuries instead of Grook Fu or other Windfury minions is mostly because of handbuff archetype. That is rewarding mostly from small minions, but also as sweet target to land Dinosize or ValAnyr on.
- Spiteful Summoner + Dinosizes: This combo is nothing new to this meta. It was tried out in Murloc Paladin and some more Paladin archetypes. It works as a charm. I dont like adding the 3rd spell as there is no ideal candidate among the Paladin spells, but if you keep to draw Dinosize before Spiteful, you can add Stampridge Steed - I would say instead for one Aldor/Stonehill or Drygulch.
Mulligan:
Keep:
- Drygulch Jailor
- Grimestreet Outfitter
- Righteous Protector (against Aggro)
- Aldor Peacekeeper (against Rogue)
- Spiteful Summoner (against Control)
- ValAnyr (if ideal curve on hand already)
Situational:
- Aldor Peacekeeper (against Druid, Paladin)
- Stonehill Defender
- Grimestreet Enforcer
- Spiteful Summoner
- ValAnyr
- Corridor Creeper
- Corpsetaker
Replacements:
Against aggro:
-2x Drygulch Jailor
+2x Golakka Crawler
---
-2x Stonehill Defender
+2x Tar Creeper
Additional Tips:
Already here and will try to add more :)
I would think Wickerflame would be useful for Corpsetaker synergy. Maybe post nerf replacements for Creepers include Wickerflame and Spellbreaker? Handbuff pally is my favorite archetype but I don't have Dinosize..
Only replacement for Dinosize is probably Lay on Hands
I see your point but with Righteous Protector and Chillblade Champion, you get all the synergy with Corpsetaker that Wickerflame Burnbristle would give you.
I run one Chillblade and one Wickerflame in my deck, no Creepers as I'm testing post-nerf decks. Regardless, it looks like handbuff pally should be pretty strong post-nerf!
Wickerflame tho not weak card, its somehow underperforming, as playing "only" 2/2 for 3 mana is weak against control and some tempo decks, as Mage or Rogue.
Cant tell about úost-nerf replacements, but looking forward - i think this deck will be quite strong :)
Any possible cuts? Want to run a healing hands to replenish hand and heal since aggro decks are killing me despite the taunts
Added the replacements - will try to add more over time.
The only flaw is see is there's only 2 spells in the deck period, so if you draw them your spitefuls are worthless. :-/
that happens in spiteful priest too, just gotta accept it sometimes
Yep, that's one of the reasons why spiteful priest works but not spiteful druid or paladin
You can always put a third spell in place of a card you don't have or you'd think doesn't belong in the deck. Like Spikeridged Steed.
i think put more a Lay on Hands is good against aggro deck
I made a spiteful recruit warrior that actually works pretty well. ;) Needs a little work and wish i had a higher mana spell over 7 but i win 90% of my games anyways. lol http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1031725-updated-spiteful-recruit-warrior
This deck looks fun .
What does 20 upvotes earn you? Do you get Hearthpwn bucks or something?
