Check out this Video for some hot Gunspire Action
KiwiiNbacon here. For those who don't know me, I'm a multiple time legendary player on the NA server. I also do deck showcase videos on youtube once in a while.
The Witchwoods expansion is finally upon us and for us to celebrate, I created a fantastic control warrior deck that may or may not change the way we think of warrior as a whole. Overall I would classify this as a major meme, but the capability of the deck to shred your opponent to pieces with a broadside of oversize cannonballs seems like its completely worth it.
The point of the deck is to survive until late game and overrun the board with big minions. Plenty of removal including a few rush minions and taunts are included to slow down the aggression which helps this deck get into the late game. I personally think that this deck has the potential to go absolutely bonkers if your opponent lets it go and will be a ton of fun to pilot in the upcoming weeks.
Deck Goal
What you want to achieve with this deck is quite simple. Get Blackhowl Gunspire to stick on the board by any mean possible. The following turn, play a Carnivorous Cube on the gunspire and duplicate it with Sudden Genesis, Faceless Manipulator or Prince Taldaram. Finally, kill your cubes and unleash swift blows to your opponent with Warpath and other board damaging effect and watch your opponent's defenses crumble in a beautiful pyrotechnic show.
MULLIGANS
no coin: you will be looking for Town Crier, Woodcutter's Axe Redband Wasp and Slam which would be the most efficient way to start the game
With coin: you can also keep Militia Commander and Saronite Chain Gang if you already have a one or two drop and either Slam or the Woodcutter's Axe
Interchangeable cards
Since this is major theorycraft, everything is currently on the table, if you have good ideas for the deck and if there are tech cards required I will add them here later but for the moment, many spots are up for grabs.
Card Choices
Town Crier: Most likely one of the best card in the expansion, also happens to have a bell.
Battle Rage: We are playing a self damaging deck you fool!
Dead Man's Hand: More Shooty = More wins
Execute: Tis a good card in a whirlwind packed deck
Redband Wasp: Float like a Glitter Moth, sting like a Redband Wasp.
Slam: You hurt AND draw, what more could you want.
Warpath: Didn't anyone ever tell you -- never bring a gun to a knife fight ~ Warpath
Woodcutter's Axe: Fiery war axe died for this!
Blood Razor: Quite sharp, much good at beating paladins.
Militia Commander: Quite skilled at stabbing people, just not in the face.
Brawl: Do I really have to explain why brawl is good in a control deck ?
Sudden Genesis: I hear you like Blackhowl Gunspire.
Blackhowl Gunspire: Refer to Sudden Genesis above.
Rotface: He likes it when it hurts.
Scourgelord Garrosh: For when you run out of warpath.
Vicious Scalehide: He Protec but He Also Attac. also quite good with the Woodcutter's Axe
Prince Taldaram: You must construct additional Blackhowl Gunspire.
Saronite Chain Gang: I mean you do need a way to survive until late game.
Carnivorous Cube: Apparently cubes can eat buildings too.
Faceless Manipulator: YOU MUST!
Primordial Drake: Rawr.
Match-ups
seems like we have to wait a couple of days before I can put any interesting data in here.
Thanks for all the support I will make more decks in the future :D

this deck looks so memey, and i absolutely love it. looks like so much fun to play. i want to build a wild version of this with some bouncing blade action
If it is in wild, should have Emperor Thaurissian to make the combo easier~

Hi! I am really happy to see new warrior post (as you know, we have no love from blizzard .-. )
The cube gunsprie is a new idea to how to use it and I am really appreciate it! However, the core mission is the same as other Gunspire decks in the forum, which is "How to make the tower effect before it is removed", while others try to OTK to ignore this problem, I would like to know how can we save our tower for 1 turn.
For instance, some ways to increase the spell cost of your opponents (ah we are not paladin...), or any other means...if there are any.
Apologize for my poor English :D
you do not have to let is survive as you just need to play dead man's hand prior and if it dies, you can play another one later.
So have to make sure we have:
1. dead man's hand
2. Gunspire
3. Cube
4. Sudden Genesis / Faceless / Prince
before we play out the combo, and if our opponents removed our tower, we have to wait for the tower again for the combo.
Actually it seems fine for a control warrior!
that is why you have brawls, slam execute, drake another warpath and garrosh to clear the path !!
What should I replace to put in countess ??
Maybe a cube? I don't really trust the consistency of being able to proc your own cube as a warrior unless you're throwing an execute at your own guy
Lol, this looks crazy. Have you considered a Master Oakheart variant?
not currently, tho I might play around that later on :P
I the name based on Slay the Spire?
yep the whole deck description is full of references
Who knew cubes could eat buildings?
Nice
Looks like great fun - will definitely give it a whirl! Excited for Warrior to make a comeback - fingers crossed!
I am super excited for it as well!
Deck seems like a blast, great job! If any1 is interested, I've made many theorycrafts on what I think may be the new meta & interesting arcchetypes of the expansion. I'd really appreciate any feedback
I would really appreciate any feedbacks & comments. These are my best & most optimised theorycrafts for the new expansion.
Dude... really? Not only promoting urself in someone elses deckbuild but also making it like the longest and most uninteresting post ever! Bravo!
Now delete this post or atleast size it down to the one deck you are most proud of and put a lil explanation about the wincondition so we don't have to think ourselves :)
omg dude - even if this only has a 20% win rate it'll be so fun to play!
