Hearthpwn

RenoLock is probably the strongest of the Reno decks out there, and this is my take on it. The reason why it is very strong is due to Bloodreaver Gul'dan and now with Expired Merchant you can get two of him.

The deck is fairly simple to pilot as we are not trying to be super fancy or greedy, we just want to grind out the match. The game plan is fairly simple, keep removing boards and surviving till the late game, and for that you have plenty of survival tools.

But what I mainly like is that you can crush other greedy Control decks with a very powerful combo as the following:

1. Discount Brann Bronzebeard (B) + Zola the Gorgon (Z)+ Gnomeferatu (G) with Emperor Thaurissan.
2.  Play B+G,
3. Copy G with Z
4. Play two more Gs,

All that for 9 mana while burning 6 cards (20%) of the opponents deck. You can simply swap Gnomeferatu with Dirty Rat against Combo decks to wreck them.

From my testing the toughest match-up is Mill decks or Academic Espionage Rogue as their deck and high-roll can out value your game-plan, which is why Rin, the First Disciple can be an interesting (but slow) inclusion.

For any suggestions please leave a comment below, thanks!
