Nana here to showcase his anti-aggro deck. This is not the first time I've tried to make taunt druid work. The other time I did I got to top 200 legend with it quite easily. proof
Just coached my brother to legend with this updated list. He got there with a 61% winrate. So if you are struggling to get there this final week this is the deck to go for :) hf
Let me show you how this would work:
Core cards;
I'm sure you can see the synergies without me pointing them out.
Here's a simple mulligan
Note: Don't keep Master Oakheart unless you have the needed ramp in your mulligan phase
A little in-depth mulligan against aggro or control decks, these are of the highest priority
Against Control: Keep, Master Oakheart, Nourish, Oaken Summons and Wild Growth
Against Aggro: Keep, Lesser Jasper Spellstone, Oaken Summons, Wrath, Swipe and Wild Growth
Gameplan;
Ramp up quickly with Wild Growth and Nourish, get your taunts out there and whittle your opponent down.
Later in the game look for combos like;
Hadronox now summons;
Tips Section
Against Aggro, ramp as quickly as possible and put your taunts down.
You can Drop your Hadronox into a Doomsayer if you have enough dead Taunts to deny your opponent setup time
Hadronox + Naturalize is going to win you a lot of games, you should not throw your Hadronox into a silence because you're impatient. Also don't waste your Naturalize every time you need something to disappear, you have a lot of armor for a reason
Branching Paths can give you a lethal you might not realize afterHadronox Vomits
You can put Hadronox down without naturalize if you're playing against a non-mage/non-shaman deck and cube it later. If they silence and kill it just play your Witching Hour and Cube that
That's all for now
Leave your suggestions/thoughts/questions in the comments below. Thanks
Malfurion the Pestilent summons either 2 Frost Widows or 2 Scarab Beetles which are all beasts and so will most certainly dilute the pool. Do you really want to spend 3 mana playing Witching Hour only to get a Scarab Beetle or a Frost Widow ?
Rotten Applebaum exists mostly as an aggro counter or to play into a mages Explosive Runes and not feel bad about it..I chose not to go for Druid of the Claw as another taunt because then I would not be maximizing the full potential of Witching Hour so instead I went for another good taunt which is Rotten Applebaumnvm Just changed it for Primordial Drake. Getting to resummon a card like Witchwood Grizzly twice against an aggro paladin will most likely win you the game out right.Call me crazy but I think this deck has cube/control lock levels of potential. Insane amount of taunt here.
