I climbed with only this deck today post-nerf (May 23th) from Rank 4 to Legend with 65% winrate.
Proof and Stats:
Why Nightmare Amalgam ? Because the +1 HP is a huge deal against some popular board clears right now like Duskbreaker and Hellfire also it help to activate Blazecaller .
Why Plague Scientist ? I want have better chances to deal with early Mountain Giant against Even Warlock and the card has very decent synergy with Southsea Deckhand or Argent Squire for example , although Ironbeak Owl is way more effective play against Doomsayer (especially behind Taunt minion) , Twilight Drake and some taunts like Hooked Reaver etc since you dont need to combo it or have a board to get the effect. I believe Plague Scientist is core in the deck after the nerfs so if you still want play Ironbeak Owl better cut something else for that.
Why Captain Greenskin ? Because he has nice synergy with the upgrade dagger and Deadly Poison and it is often a better play than Cobalt Scalebane in my experience, Against Psychic Scream and Volcano for example.
After make those changes it leads me to a very decent winstreak and i got Legend pretty quickly does not mean it's the most optimal list but it worked for me mainly because of the reasons i mentioned above.
Feel free to comment or upvote if you enjoy it, GL HF.
Hey knightslayeruk, if you want stick with silence i dont think you really need the second copy can drop 1x Ironbeak Owl , Glacial Shard is a very decent card but i dont think it's really needed also Fungalmancer is just better than Cobalt Scalebane in this deck so drop it or Captain Greenskin if you prefer the dragon for another copy of fungal.
NP, hope this will help.
Does this really work with ZERO card draw? feels a lot like if you lose the board, you are done.
Yes,definely work. What you even mean with card draw? Do you want play Sprint in this deck? Because you know that Fan of Knives is not exactly a card draw, right? lol
really like the single plague scientist, can be very clutch. i replaced 1 nightmare amalgam with sonya, because i only have 1 and didn't feel it essential enough to craft, sonya + si:7/southsea deckhand/plague scientist can push you through some sticky situations if the game goes on too long.
not sure about sonya though, as you really need to keep pressure on turn 3, and sonya doesn't do that until later in game normally. didn't see any other 3 drop i prefer though.
Most lists run Blink Fox or Edwin VanCleef tho, other good card you can play is Cobalt Scalebane but i cut him from the list many times it was the most underwhelming card in my experience.
why exactly nightmare amalgan? just bc its a 3/4 for 3mana?
Yes, because it's a good tempo play i found it better than Blink Fox , +1 HP actually is a huge deal especially against Duskbreaker and Hellfire .
Looks really good man. Could you share a brief strategy / mulligan guide?
I dont really make guides man but it's pretty straightforward deck you play for tempo and try to maximize face damage with your minions and hero power. Always keep a good 1 drop (prefebly Dire Mole or Argent Squire) sometimes with Cold Blood , Deadly Poison is a really good keep in some matchups like Priest, Warrior and Druid but it can be clunky in some hands so becareful with that , SI:7 Agent or Vilespine Slayer with the Coin , Hench-Clan Thug is a garanteed good keep, Tar Creeper against other aggressive decks, Vicious Fledgling specially with coin to antecipate this and when you feel really confident it will hit face (Deadly Poison may help you achieve this) , otherwise it's just a 3 mana 3/3. (Taunt is a cheat)
Hope this will help. :)
unfortunately i can not think of a decent one, he is essential ...
Amazing deck mate nice to see new cards that are not the standard copy paste shit u see in other lists. +1 Rep in my books
Cobalt Scalebane is the closest to him, you can play with that.
