GUIDE:
Very good in order to get your big demons out faster against aggro decks. Otherwise you can use it on Voidwalker for cheap healing and to get hand space. Obviously broken against other warlocks. Keep it in your opening hand if you have a Voidcaller and/or Sense Demons against aggro.
Always keep this in your mulligan. Play it whenever you can. It's a free lifetap on legs. Insane card.
Always keep against aggro. Otherwise you can get easy handspace with this in the lategame or you can keep it as a bridge for defile clears.
1x Mortal Coil
Just a cheap cycle. Keep against aggro if you already have a good hand. Against control feel free to even use it on your own minions.
1x Bloodbloom
One of the combo pieces that you need to reduce with Emperor Thaurissan. Otherwise I didn't really find a use for it. For example if you need to use it with Twisting Nether against aggro you are usually too low anyways.
Just a nice tool to have. The spelldamage only matters with Defile and Mortal Coil. Just play it if you have spare mana in order to cycle.
1x Defile
Your main boardclear against aggro. Keep against Paladin, Rogue and Shaman. Against control you can often just play it on an empty board to get handspace.
Very flexible, but never really a powerhouse. You can keep it for secret/weapon removal against mage, or board clears against aggro. Otherwise just play it when you can do something for board control. Sometimes I even played it as a vanilla 3/2, just to fight for the board. Just don't be too greedy with it and always keep Bloodlust in mind when you have a couple Voidwalkers laying around.
1x Dark Skies
Insane new card. Works against wide boards and single minions. At 3 its cheap enough to be played whenever. In combination with Bloodmage Thalnos it clears pretty much every board.
2x Sense Demons
The main draw to get your Voidcaller combos. Definitely keep in slower matchups, against aggro its a bit more difficult, although its probably right when you already have Sacrificial Pact or Voidcaller. The secondary effect (getting the 1/1 imps) is not useless, as you can keep them as blockers for your opponents Dirty Rat. Just be careful to not mess up your demon pool.
Emergency removal for big early game minions, for example a magnetized mech or a Flamewreathed Faceless. If you have 10 mana, the downside doesn't matter, but before that you really have to plan out your curve. I wouldn't replace it with Kazakus, as you can't play that on turn 4.
1x Cataclysm
One of your combo pieces. You don't need to reduce it as it only costs you health (which was never a problem). Otherwise you can't use it, as the cost is just too high.
2x Voidcaller
The most OP card in the deck and your win condition against aggro. Try to get this on Voidlord as Mal'Ganis is quite easy to remove. You can also play this as a bluff and try to draw into your demons later.
Just a nice little healing in the middlegame with a body. It pays back the health you lost for lifetaps.
1x Zilliax
Yes, this card is also in here. Just useful to have a removal/healing combo. Keep in mind that Antique Healbot is a mech.
Against control, you need to reduce Bloodbloom and Mecha'thun with this. Against aggro, you can play this on turn 6 if you are not under pressure. It's often worth it if you reduce a big demon or Bloodreaver Gul'dan.
1x Reno Jackson
There are a couple of matchups where you don't need this. But if you do, it saves you the game. Especially against a mage with Aluneth up or a rogue that played Myra's Unstable Element. Only keep if you have some of the non-searchable duplicates against aggro.
1x Lord Godfrey
Just another boardclear against aggro/midrange.
A lot better that The Soularium as you can play this proactively. Then it helps against overdrawing from coldlights and allows you to hold more Dirty Rat blockers.
Saves you from big boards. You will need this against mech decks and big priest for example.
1x Mal'Ganis
Not as good as Voidlord, but it basically has taunt and puts a lot of pressure on your opponent. And free lifetaps are also not bad.
2x Voidlord
Your main protection. Try to get it out as early as possible. Just don't play it right before your combo, as the deathrattle completely destroys it.
THE powerhouse of the deck. If you play this against aggro, you usually win the game on the spot. Against control its just nice to have, just don't play it too late as you will need to get rid of your Voidlords.
1x Mecha'thun
The reason you play this deck. Reduce it with Emperor Thaurissan and beat all those greedy control decks!
I subbed soularion for coldlight oracle can burn enemy cards good vs priest I don't own the leg that's all :-)
I reached legend for the first time after starting with this deck and making some minor alterations
I don't have The Soularium, and subbed Gnomeferatu instead
Once I hit rank 1, I found myself up against a lot of other renolocks and my Zephyrs and Reno would remain unusable for way to long, plus a lot of aggro mage
I further subbed:
-1 Kobold Librarian
-1 Sacrificial Pact
-1 Defile
for these:
+1Hellfire
+1Dark Pact
+1Eater of Secrets
This made my Reno/Zephyrs a little more reliable, and I found defile would often miss if the opponent's lowest health minion was 2 health. The Eater, while it didn't specifically win me any games against mage because the only game I played after subbing was a control reno mage that managed to mill my Mecha'thun :-P
Ok deck, but you don't show any proof of hitting Legend with it. Unless you get perfect draw, this deck is mathematically terrible vs Secret Mage (looks like you've gotten really lucky...)
I don't have the screenshot, because I disconnected during the last game to get legend. But here is the replay link if you want to see it: https://hsreplay.net/replay/utpyVYJuLCpBnExdfYT63L
That game is also against Secret Mage. And here you can see the winrate of 630 games:

i play 5 games at level 7........
lost all my games :
worst deck again agro....( also quest chaman....
Then you are probably doing something wrong. And if you are only facing aggro, tech against it.
Nice idea! Unfortunally it is not working for me in the current meta. Too aggro. You need a great start hand to survive
Which decks are you losing against? For me this was very good against Secret Mage.
It is working, but need good start hand against aggros. Have changed: 1 Sense Demons to 1 Doomsayer
odd paladin
odd hunter
deathloard/dirt rat control warlock
Dirty Rat is the biggest problem for this deck, so against control you always need to keep some minions in hand. For odd hunter, I have almost never seen any of them. And odd paladin was a very good matchup for me.
Blast 'em into the ABYSS!!!
Thank you very much for the spotlight!
You really shouldn't be thanking him for advertising on your deck page. You are encouraging these leeches to keep doing what they're doing, and trust me, your deck won't get any more popular cuz of this guy.
You must have had a really rough day.
Hi. I don't have The Soularium × 1 and this Bloodmage Thalnos × 1 .
Can i play without this cards? Can i replace for The Soularium to kazakus? . Talnos >brann?
Or can you recommend me what is better to replace these cards?
I would replace Bloodmage Thalnos with loot hoarder, as Kazakus is probably too many singleton cards. For The Soularium you need something that draws cards immediately. Maybe Novice Engineer or Coldlight Oracle?
I could craft it but only without 2 legendaries, are Thalnos and Soularium very necessary? Will am I able to hit at least rank5 without them?
For Bloodmage Thalnos see below. The Soularium gets you the combo three turns quicker. Otherwise it can be used as an emergency button if your singleton cards are not enabled yet. Its one of the lowest drawn/played winrate cards for me, so just give it a try!
any replacement for thalnos?
