May Season Update:
Despite the Bad Luck Albatross and Altruis the Outcast nerfs, the deck, with some changes, was still decent enough to take me reasonably comfortably to Legend within a day. The win-rate has dropped a bit and is now hovering in the low 70s.
Games consisted of mostly quest Mage (still strong, but thankfully a bit slower), a nasty discard Warlock deck and pirate and armor Warrior antics.
April Season:
Despite the quick nerfs to Demon Hunter, I had good results with this Baku version, scoring close to 80% on Legend rank.
Mulligan is pretty straightforward, with many 1-drops to get the momentum going. Glacial Shard works well freezing your opponent or his minions in mirror matches. Consider keeping Bad Luck Albatross in your hand against Warlock, Priest and Mage in case of Reno. A final clever tech is the addition of Cobalt Spellkin. Currently DH only has two 1-mana cost cards; Mana Burn and Consume Magic, the latter of which makes quick work of taunt minions (or cycles).
Good luck grinding to a 1000 wins!
Update 14/04: After the umpteenth Mage broke my 10 game win streak, I wanted to post the latest results.
A good number of games later the win rate has not changed much. Statistically, odd-Paladin has proven most difficult, but the vast majority of "experiences" involve Mage. I've ran the same list and feel quite happy about it. The only cards up for debate are the pirates, as drawing Patches the Pirate before the others feels frustrating.
Gonna try it now
Let me know how it works out for you!
Dude, you're the best, it got me from Diamond 5 to Legend for the first time ever...
Happy to hear! Thanks for the kind words.
@Metalhead: Just wondering, how many hours did you play from Diamond 5 to Legend? And congratulations by the way :-)
went from d5 to legend with this 18-2 thank you very much.
Congratulations. Glad to hear my deck helped!
I am losing an 8th game with this from diamond 2. I feel like I am either unlucky or just bad xD
Sorry to hear. I played a few more games this afternoon and still hovering around 75%. There's not a clear deck it loses against; 3/10 losses are vs Mage, but then again so are 24% of my games. Maybe just some misfortune on your part. Like any aggro deck, starting with a hand full of 5/7 mana cards is not a good thing.
I am so unlucky... I have 36% WR of 14 games... I don't know
Cobalt spellkin is extremely helpful and IMBA on this DH deck.
The draw for mana burn and Consume Magic is drastically game changer
Thanks! No longer is a turn 5 Voidlord game over.
I’m glad you’re putting up good results with this list. I’m working my way through diamond with a similar build. How do you feel about running 2x mana burn?
Yea, that was a mistake on my part. It should have been 2 Glacial Shards there. You can still get Mana Burn off the Cobalt, but I wouldn't run it.
Fixed, thanks! I put in Mana Burn by accident.
I play with Mana Burn instead of glacial shard and it also works well.
At 2nd turn with Mana Burn is nightmare for your opponent.
