Reached Top 50 with Mecha'thun Warrior with 78% win-rate (21-6). By far the best deck in game for ladder. It just beats everything.
Your general combo and win condition is draw your whole deck and have in your hand Mecha'thun Malygos Whirlwind The Boomship and 2x Inner Rage (You can also have one more minion in your hand that has 6 or less health so it can die to whirlwind). You play The Boomship that summons Malygos and Mecha'thun. You Inner Rage Mecha'thun for 6 damage and Malygos for another 6 damage. That allows you to kill both minions with Whirlwind because with Malygos +5 spell power it does 6 damage aoe and that's how you do the combo and you win the game.
Not all your games will be this your condition tough. For example lets assume you play vs warrior and their Hecklebot hits your Malygos. You can still win pretty easily. To do that you do your combo with The Boomship that summons your Mecha'thun and you Shield Slam your Mecha'thun. Another trick you need to do vs warriors because some of them run Unseen Saboteur is if you are on coin always keep The Coin and Shield Slam so you have more chances of not hit your The Boomship and if it hits one of your combo pieces you do your combo with Shield Slam if it hits Shield Slam you do your full combo. If tough Hecklebot hits your Mecha'thun just go next this happens rarely and its the same thing like playing control warrior mirrors and one Hecklebot hits anothers Archivist Elysiana you just go next game.
Against aggro decks most of the times you don't win with your combo so use Inner Rage and Whirlwind alone or in combination with Malygos as extra removal and aoe. Always try to remove enemy minions with the removal you have first and use them if needed , because there is always a small chance you need your full combo to win the game. That's why i believe this deck is better against aggro and people don't tend to understand that , because they think it's a combo deck , but vs aggro is just a control deck with extra removal.
Mulligan:
Against rogue your priority is to find weapon removals and aoe. Weapons Project is always a keep. Harrison Jones if you dont have Weapons Project or if you are on coin is always a keep even if you have Weapons Project. Warpath is always a keep. Town Crier is always a keep. Brawl is almost always a keep. Dr. Boom, Mad Genius is a keep if you are on coin and you have weapon removal and aoe. Slam is rarely a keep. Shield Slam is sometimes a keep. If you have the coin Dyn-o-matic is most of times a keep.
Against aggro decks that aren't rogue mulligan is the same as rogue but you don't need weapon removals so give more priority to Slam and Dyn-o-matic in these mashups.
Against priest keep Brawl and Malygos Whirlwind. Most of priest play Chef Nomi and they bounce him back with Seance so they can play triple Chef Nomi. Brawl clears first 2 and Malygos Whirlwind the last one so they can actually win. Other than that always keep Dr. Boom, Mad Genius Town Crier and sometimes Acolyte of Pain.
Against mage always keep Shield Slam for their big threats. Dr. Boom, Mad Genius is always a keep as well. Town Crier is always a keep.
Against warrior always keep Mecha'thun so they cant hit him with Hecklebot , unless you know they don't play Hecklebot. Always keep Dr. Boom, Mad Genius and Town Crier. Always keep The Coin untill you do your combo , if you have it , so their Unseen Saboteur has less chances to hit The Boomship.
**Omega Devastator at 4 is a good play most of the times unless maybe if you play against mage. Don't wait to get the full value of your cards your main priority is to dumb your hand and draw your deck so you can win. Use Harrison Jones in combination with Weapons Project so you can draw 3 cards , use Acolyte of Pain in combination with Warpath so you can draw 3 cards again. If you have all your combo in your hand you can overdraw so you don't need to waste turns and mana in cards you need to dump anyway**
Changes:
22/4/2019 : - Eternium Rover + Acolyte of Pain
11/5/2019 : - 2 Omega Devastator + 2 Eternium Rover - Town Crier + Dyn-o-matic
SPECIALIST FORMAT :
This is your Primary deck. It can beat almost anything (except mages). You play this against rogues and aggro decks.
This is your secondary deck. Even tough the first deck can beat easily warriors this is used because most of warriors play combo disruptions cards at their side decks so they can deal with combo decks , but they cant win this unless their Hecklebot hit your Mecha'thun (which you should keep in mulligan if you have it).
This is your tertiary deck. It is used to have a chance against mages. Double Big Game Hunter Omega Devastator and double Supercollider should be enough.
If you believe or you know you gonna face almost 0 mages and lots of hunters this the the other tertiary deck that beats hunters.
In my opinion the anti-mage tertiary deck is better because you can beat hunters with your primary deck but against mages you don't have a chance.
Against zoo deck the match up is what you gonna mulligan. Try to master the mulligan against this match up and you gonna win much more. Warpath and Brawl are your best friends hard mulligan for them.
Awesome deck explanation mate,great job.
Just wanted to ask your opinion guys,i always wanted to play a solid mecha'thun version deck and wondering if the warrior is the one i'm looking for.Is it worth to craft The Boomship ?or is there any other way to replace it ?That's the only card i'm missing
Thank you so much!
If you looking for Mecha'thun deck i believe , at least for this expansion , there will not be another class , except warrior , that can play it and not be a meme deck. If you don't have the dust tough for crafting The Boomship i suggest you try this control warrior version that uses Mecha'thun Galvanizer as a win condition instead of Baleful Banker Archivist Elysiana. The combo is Galvanizer your Mecha'thun and then you play Mecha'thun and Shield Slam it to win. The only problem is that this deck is worst against disrupting cards and mages. Feel fry to try out yourself so you can make a choice if you like it or not.
Here is the list :
this list, though, not really great. there aree multiple better snd cheaper ones.
yes, instead of using the Boomship, one could also reduce the cost of all mechs in your hand, by uising the 2-mana mihose name I've forgootten... ;) But, that wouldn't make the combo easier to use.
this list has reached top 1 in eu server multiple times so it's just good
I'm using this iteration of the same mech tech in a controll shell idea with great success:
I feel it has less dead cards against aggro compared to the boomship version.
Just got to legend using this list, thank you so much for sharing!
Needed a few games to learn how to pilot the deck properly against the different matchups, but it was worth it.
I got a winrate of around 70% from rank 4 to legend.
Thanks Again!
I'm glad you like it good job for your legend :)
What's a good replacement for Omega Devastator?
you can put execute or second dynomatic but in my opinion omega devestator will be there for the next 2 years and will always be played in control warrior so it is worth to craft it
none, just craft them, as they are a staple in any warrior goiing the distance!
Tough deck to be consistent.Thought the guys execute idea was good then remebered you can't execute your own minion.
I think you havent undestand the combo. Boomship inner malygos for 6 damage inner Mechathun for 6 Damage then whirlwind for another 6 damage and they are both dead.
Hecklebot is as a counter is to control warriors. If it hits your malygos you do your combo with Boomship and shieldslam. If hecklebot hits your Mechathun just go next , its the same like playing control warriors mirrors and their heckebot hits your elysiana you just lose (vs warriors). You activate acolyte be yourself and never play it on turn 3 cause you want to warpath him so he can always draw you 3 cards.Draw take you faster to your win condition so never tempo acolyte vs control decks. If you have all your combo pieces and full hand use acolyte to overdraw cards so you don't have to pay the mana to play them.
Res priest is a non existence deck have only faced one first days of the expansion where people just trying things (so its about 1 in 700 games i have played since then). Only priest deck that is viable atm is the nomi priest.
Execute doesn't target your minions. Only way you would consider playing 1 galvanizer 1 Mechathun is in a control warrior instead of banker elysiana to win mirrors more times and avoid 40 min games draw (thats how control warrior is these days they play mechat'hun or hakkar the best lists not elysiana banker).
From what i understand you haven't get how the combo is done , check what i wrote and go try it your self. This is the best warrior list imo because is better all around against the meta decks , and i still play it with lot of success (same list picked top 20).
As a side note, its way easier to play 2x Galvanizer and cut boomship, inner rage x1, malygos and whirlwind for something more useful. Just reduce the mecha'thun to 8 and execute it.
Thats far worst build for this even against warriors. If the play saboteur its almost 100% they will hit your win condition wich is shildslam. Vs mages tough its where you MUST have shieldslams to have a chance against them its auto lose. Vs aggro decks its better because you actually dont win with combo so you have extra removals with inner fires and malygos. Vs nomi priest 2x brawl and malygos whirlwind is auto win. So this deck is far better all around.
You just need to practice. The deck is pretty good. Specially vs Control.
0-6 - I deeply regret crafting a legendary for this! Even dusted my duplicates.-
You need to get used to the deck to perform pretty well with it its not as autopilot as control warrior. Keep practicing and wins will come :)
Went from rank 5 to currently 3 with 2 stars. Deck is great because it counters aggro or control
