Last on our list—but certainly not least—we have Zetalot with a Gilded Dragon Control deck. Zetalot, who’s earned a reputation as a guiding light for Priest players, piloted this deck to an impressive 66% win rate over 123 games. Nearly reaching the pinnacle of the EU ranked ladder, Zetalot’s list initially appears to be an unassuming dragon/control hybrid. However, opponents quickly discovered out that this deck hides a deadly finishing option. Using the Coin from the single Gilded Gargoyle to help set up the finishing combo, this Priest pilot can combine the spell-pumping power of Prophet Velen with the burst of double Mind Blast to deliver 20 damage in a single turn!

What an awesome deck dude. Seriously was getting bored out of my mind.
Hi, i am currently 22-4 with this deck. Went from Rank 11 to 5 in ~ 4 hours. Average game time is 8.5 minutes.
I dont often use the Gilded Gargoyle Coin to win with the Combo, maybe in 2 games. But its nice to test Secrets with it. Alexstrasza is pretty good. Its crazy how good this deck is against every type of aggro. Always keep Duskbreaker. All cards feeling well in this deck. The only consideration i am thinking about is to cut 1 Greater Healing Potion and add 1 Silence. After i hit Legend i will post new stats and tell you guys how the games went.
BTW: Skulking Geist was *da real MVP* in some games as well.
Somehow my picture doesnt work !!! >.<
EDIT: I am now 29-5, Rank 4 4 Stars. I made the change -1 Greater Healing Potion and added 1 Silence. It was helpful in 3 out of 5 games so far, love the change.
First time legend with this deck. thx... but ... - 1 primordial Drake + 1 Swamp Ooze.... the only way to fight cubelocks
Hahahahaha having the Mind Blast against an aggro deck is hilarious because they totally don't expect you to finish them off with burst! Really nice to have though for aggro and control though it's more for control still funny to catch people off guard on ladder XD !
I've been finding most opponents don't play around the reach of mind blast. Paladin's are quite easy, you have enough AOE to stall until end game. They appear to do themselves chip damage with there own weapons on your minions that mind blast is a finisher.
Problem matchups are secret mage and control warlock. Duskbreaker seems key against mage, and geist and psy scream is needed for warlock.
Very fun deck thou. Found the grind to rank 2 relatively easy so far.
Wow great job! Yeah that's what I was realizing was if I could just hang on and overpower him with medium sized beefy minions just poppin' him in the face that eventually mind blast was just gonna finish him off. He went face a lot too but my healing and value trades were just enough he got close but not close enough ;P !
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! ;)
Great run through. You explained the instance where we all stand at some point. Cheers.
A super fun deck - I managed to climb from ranks 10 to 6 very quickly. This deck has also rekindled my appreciation for Netherspite Historian... especially when it gives you Temporus in a useful context!!
That was probably the best commentary I have ever heard and I watch a lot of streamers. Nice job. Do you stream often? I just noticed your channel in your profile.
wow! what a great video! I'm not elite when it comes to games, i just can't seem to follow a lot of the vids posted around here, but your commentary made everything so accessible, thank you! MORE PLEASE!! =) big ups from Los Angeles!!!
@bevil77Thanks for the kind words :-) I don't stream much. Currently, any free time I got goes into making Youtube videos :-)
@ilmattius Thanks for the feedback :-) I aim to publish at least 1 or 2 videos per week. I'm really happy you find them useful :D
It is interesting to compare the Zetalot deck to other 'Big Priest' decks which run Malygos and resurrection effects. I tried to do a brief comparison... in the end, I found the Zetalot deck to be far more consistent.
I've lost 5 out of 5 with this at the moment, 4 of those games against regular Spiteful Priest, one against Thief Priest. It's so weak and I find myself running out of resources to deal with their board before I can even think about using the combo.
That being said, I am on my worst month ever in Hearthstone, deranking all month so maybe it's me.
People using Zeta's own deck against him... zetaFeels
Btw, Temporus is amazing off of Netherspite Historian in match ups where you know they can't kill you in two turns. Between Alexstrasza, Prophet Velen, Shadowreaper Anduin and Mind Blast ofc there are an incredible amount of various OTKs
Same here, but I put in Mass Dispel and a second Gilded Gargoyle just in case I needed to use a coin.
i dont have Alex and i am not going to craft her before next expansion...any ideas?
Alex is a solid craft, can be a pretty flex Legendary. Are you just saving dust for the next expac?
