This taunt warrior deck is obviously based on playing as many taunt minions as possible to complete Fire Plume's Heart and equip Sulfuras, so you can start slamming your opponent with as many 8-damage fireballs as you can!
-After you end up completing your quest, Blackwald Pixie can help out tremendously, either killing an extra enemy minion, or by destroying your opponent's face with an extra 8-damage fireball, and Clockwork Automaton can provide fireballs which deal a whopping 16 damage ! (which doesn't kill The Darkness, but who runs that anymore)
-I've always found Cornered Sentry is a decent taunt, but the 3 raptors it summons works extremely well with Drywhisker Armorer. That in addition to Shield Block and Unidentified Shield allows Geosculptor Yip to provide huge tempo swings, especially now that all of the Old Gods have rotated to wild :)
-This deck also contains Execute, Blood Razor and Brawl, which help control the board while you pour out your taunts.
-From the WitchWood, Quest Warrior gets buffed even further with powerful taunts such as Rotten Applebaum, Witchwood Grizzly, and Phantom Militia, which if played on turn 9 can easily add 3 ticks to your quest with 1 card!
-The rest of the deck is basically the best quality taunts I could find, such as Primordial Drake, Stonehill Defender (which is especially good because it gives you 2 taunts), Tar Lord, and The Lich King :)
EDIT: -2 Sleepy Dragon, +2 Tar Lord (Sleepy Dragons most often just sleep in your hand)
Waaaay too slow, too many counters in the meta atm
well it is warrior after all.... Also, do you have any statistical proof to back up your statement?
This deck is obviously not tier 1 (warrior in 2018, lul) but it does ok. 80% WR in unranked, 60% in ranked (legend). Not bad. It’s really satisfying when you turn a game around at less than 5hp and go on to win.
I just did that vs a argo druid and boy did it feel good.
After trying this in casual and losing more than winning I definitely agree with PhantomNato's suggestion with Ravaging Ghoul and Sleep with the fishes. It would help greatly vs aggro decks. It's hard to keep up as it is now. If you play a big taunt, they can just silence it and go face.
Hmm I'm going to start a poll, many people prefer Tar Lord over Sleepy Dragon in this deck: Should I edit and make the switch?
(up vote the comment for yes, down vote for no)
Just played against something very similar to this.. too slow. Looks pretty fun though
This deck is by no means the best deck, it's a warrior deck after all. However as someone who would like to main warrior if it was better, i love how it works. I personally think Geosculptor Yip is an excellent addition and I prefer Tar Lord over Sleepy Dragon. Super fun, and it's decent. Worth the little bit of dust I had to spend on it.
This deck is definitely not viable on ladder. Way to slow. Don't craft if you want to climb. Some games are fun though
Why are the sleepy dragons in this deck? They pretty much end up sleeping in your hand.
Lol
I've found that I never summon Sleepy Dragon since during the late game, when I would have enough mana to play it, I can't use my hero power in the same turn since it costs 9. Any ideas for replacements? Tar Lord?
Yeah, Tar Lord would be a viable replacement for Sleepy Dragon
WORST DECK
Well Met! If you are interested in watching a video where i explain my thought process of every move that im doing you can check this out. I hope that you will learn something new! This is slightly different version but rules are the same BUILD THE WALL ;)
Nice video, it was interesting to see how you justified your plays :) However, I found that more taunts is usually better, because it makes more of a wall and it gets the quest done quicker (but that's more of a personal preference than anything)
not ladder!
Could you elaborate on that? Do you think it's not viable for ladder? why?
Very Cool! I'm not much of a control player but I enjoy playing Warrior quest. I also swapped TheThe Lich King, for Geosculptor Yip
And a 2 more cards I didn't have.
Thx for the deck, I'm enjoying playing taunt warrior again. One thing I did was switch out 1 Bloodhoof Brave and The Lich King, for Dead Man's Handx2. Reason being, more draws, more taunts and personally I hate the RNG draws from Lich King. I also threw Geosculptor Yip since u have all the armor draws and the taunts to keep your armor in place.
Keep posting :D
