This is an itteration of dog's deck. I would advise importing tech cards, as dog does, according to the current shift in the meta.
Let me know if you 're interested...
I ll write a full tactics guide if this gets above 100 upvotes :)
Card Replacements:
- 1 Mimic Pod
+1 Zola the Gorgon
Here as promised and sorry for the delay, is the mulligan guide:
General Mulligan:
We are just searching for Pogo-Hopper and then any kind of bouncer with this order Zola the Gorgon, Lab Recruiter, Shadowstep, Cheat Death.
Always keep Elven Minstrel if you have the coin, and Sprint if you have Fal'dorei Strider in hand.
Against Aggro:
Always keep Backstab, Doomsayer and Zilliax if you already have one of the above.
Against Control:
Keep Pogo-Hopper, Fal'dorei Strider and Sprint.
Tips against specific Match-ups:
- EvenLock: Keep Doomsayer to counter his turn 3 Mountain Giant
- ZooLock: Backstab and Doomsayer is a must. Punish big board with Preparation + Vanish to get the Tempo back. Keep in mind the Pogo-Hopper + Zilliax synergy heal in order to get out of their finishing range.
- SpellHunter: Avoid playing minions or let them on the board betweent 3-5 mana as you don't want to make targets for their Flanking Strike or Baited Arrow. Play Doomsayer on turn 4 to negate their early Lesser Emerald Spellstone.
- Kingsbane Rogue: Do not waste your second Lab Recruiter and try to go infinite with Pogo-Hopper + Lab Recruiter + Lab Recruiter from Valeera the Hollow. The only way to beat it in the long run is to make Pogo-Hopper big enough to take them down in 1 turn.
- Shudderwock: If it is the Ice-Cream deck you just go infinite with the previous combo, otherwise try to play as aggresive as you can with Fal'dorei Strider + Spirit of the Shark.
- OTK Shirvallah: I didn't have any problem vs this particular deck but if somehow you get out of tempo you can always keep Valeera the Hollow to obscure yourself and ruin their combo at the last turn.
- Odd Control Warrior: Nothing further, slow control decks cannot touch your value...
zola replacement? (any bouncer? )
You can play baleful banker but it's less effective and slower than Zola :)
Some warrior destruction :)

Really cool deck, guide would be usefull.
I also watched Dog playing it in top legend, but with a bit different cards.

I am glad it worked for you! :)
Yeah I got inspired by dog for sure! But, the thing is that he mainly runs tech cards, which are great. I assume that many itterations should happen if you start climbing with this, according to the meta of your current rank :D
Any further feedback is more than welcome!! <3
