GLAKROND NERF DECK UPDATE! IT S WORKING AWSOME EXCEPT ZOO AND HYBRID ZOO-HANDLOCK

So,i had the ideea in mind that Untapped potential had much more potential to be exploited,this is how i came up with the ideea of this deck.It`s crazy fun to play it,do it and you`ll see:)

Small advice: don`t always have in your mind the ideea to complete the quest fast,sometimes it`s better not to complete it till turn 7-8.

I`ll make a full guide if this gets enough upvotes and also stream on: www.twitch.tv/shadowe12

 

Guide!!

 

 

1. Quest Priest

One of the most interesting matchups

Gameplay and mulligan: Usually you want to double first of all Dragonqueen alextraza,oasis surger zephyr and gloop( in this order or alextraza,zephir,oasis,gloop, both are good options) with elise,so you`ll have to mulligan for these and also for nourish which is a great way to find those cards.

2. you basically have not to play anything till turn 4-5(depending on your hand). you just easily complete the quest then profit

3. Prepare your lethal: just don t atack his face unless you have 15+ dmg on board and try to remove anything he plays

4.Keep in mind mass histerya,early game( turn 4-5-6 eventually 7 sometimes) try keeping your board strong so you can remove anything( or deal 15+ dmg) while also not leaving him the chance to fully remove it with mass histerya, just force him to use them on a board where 1 of your minions will probably survive.

5. Turn 9(or 8 with coin) Keep in mind that he has plague on 9 which can remove your whole board,also he can use zereph on 9 so it`s good to have a swipe or starfall by that time or just to keep the board pressure even if he s probably going to remove

6.If you want more board pressure don`t forget about gloop,he can be played in more ways- a. you play oasis on whichever turn,he removes it,you can play gloop to have 2 5/6 oasis(which are immune to histerya,you`ll still have 2 5-1 oasis on board) b. Dragonqueen alextraza- you just play dragonqueen and you don`t play the dragon she gives you(unless they re rly good and you can profit from the battlecry,or ofc,another alextraza) then you play gloop alextraza to get extra value,also,unless he used all removals DO NOT play all the free dragons,keep 1-2-3 in your hand,he s gonna be forced to remove the board anyway. 

7. Alextraza

This card is always a nice finisher,if you have 15 dmg on board and alex in hand while having 9-10 mana you win the game,tadaam.

 

Highlander Rogue

We just hate this deck,we are tilted every time we see it because you don`t know if they re playing this or non highlander,you don t know which version they play.

Well, for this matchup i recomend you to mulligan for all the silences you can so you can stay safe from that turn 4 apothecary.

In case you re unlucky and you don t have them by the time they play apothecary,try to have some board presence and remove anything he plays(except apothecary) while also not giving him the chance to kill the apothecary,till you draw silence and finally end this anoying guy ( P.S, Zephir usually doesn t give you silence, 1 case where it may give is if he doesn t have anything else threatening on board and you leave apothecary with 1 hp,you`ll get earth shock)

After you dealt with the apothecary just be as aggresive as possible and FINISH HIM

3.Face hunter

Just DON`T atack him when he has secrets,you don`t want to trigger them,you just help him kill you

Mulligan: Mulligan for healing cards,ferocious howl,alextraza,zephyr and worthy expedition

How to win? easy,easy,easy,this is the easyest matchup( unless you`re living in Kafkas universe). play minions( preferably no more than 3 at a time on board,maybe 4 is ok sometimes,heal yourself and when he s out of resources and you`re prepared for it FINISH HIM

4. Galakrond warrior

This matchup kinda sucks,you want to apply early pressure but you also need the quest completed fast in order to do it so the best would be to remove whatever he plays and try to stay at over 17 hp till turn 7. Unless he plays the version with barista and has perfect luck to be able to play turn 8 scions and barista so he gets 3 more scions in his hand you kinda win after he plays galakrond(if you have over 17 hp turn 7). Also it`ll be good to have ooze when he plays galakrond and it would be good if he doesn t have perfect curve for invoking every turn till 7 then galakrond on 7,you can t do anything in this situation.

 

5. Galakrond Shaman

If he plays with quest and plays galakrond on 9 and you don`t have zephyr you kinda lost(unless you play mc tech and you have some board)

If he doesn`t and he just plays the usual version of shaman it`s your lucky day!
The cards you`re looking for in mulligan are: Loti,starfall,silences,albatros,mc tech,warth,zephyr,elise,swipe,all those are good.

Gameplan: 1.Zephyr is your key to victory,your key to deal with shudderwock. Keep him till then.

2.Except this situation,when can i play zephyr? Well,you can play him if you have an extra copy from elise which is ideal,also it s ideal to copy starfall/oasis surger/loti with elise in this matchup.

3.Maintain board pressure,try to have everything cleaned up on turn 5(unless he plays those wolves on 5,if he does you can usually remove 1 and deal some dmg to the other)

 

5. Aggro/treant or however it s called druid

Is anoying,the obvious cards are swipe,starfall and your gameplan is to keep removing whatever he plays,forget about the quest,just survive and you`ll beat him later

6.Dragon embiggen druid

Keep board pressure and you win,just complete the quest fast while maintaining board control

7.Control warrior(the one with boom)

You just FINISH HIM,it s easy,you`ll see( don t forget about positioning for collider)

8. Singleton mage

Obviously,albatros is a beast here( pun intended)

Board pressure and you win,this matchup is also pretty easy, just try playing dragonqueen before him or make sure you can remove her and whatever she gets from it on turn 9 when she plays it

9.Zoo warlock

Worst matchup( in my opinion,others told me it`s not so hard,maybe they just highrool me very time,feelsbadman)
Mulligan: Swipe,zephyr,starfall,wrath,mc tech,crystal power but you may lose even if you get all of these sometimes:)

 

If there`s any deck i didn t talk about notify me.
P.s. I know i didn t say anything about singleton hunter but i met only 3 of them in 200+ games so when you see hunter assume it s face because,as they say, FACE IS THE PLACE!

Cheers guys!:)
