Just reach Legend from last season and this is my very first time sharing my deck in HearthPwn.
So after the season reset, I've made a pretty fun deck, it seems OP for me, and there is also so much value in this deck.
Many board clear, many big disgusting early minion from The Dark Portal. The synergy between The Dark Portal and Abyssal Summoner is awesome! Turn 5, 1 mana Abyssal Summoner with a giant with Taunt and you still can resurrect it with the Warlock Prime!
And also the synergy between Fel Lord Betrug and Plot Twist, imagine having some Deathrattle and Reborn minions with rush at 10 mana for board clear and still stay on board for board pressure, etc. after the Fel Plot combo, you shuffle a Warlock Prime that revive your big demons into your deck, Enhanced Dreadlord with Deathrattle, summon its 5 5 Dreadlord with Lifesteal on board, Khartut Defender with Taunt, Heal and Reborn, Colossus of the Moon with Reborn and Divine Shield.
Zephrys the Great and Dragonqueen Alexstrasza are nice as you always draw cards. You will have no duplicates sooner or later.
Keli'dan the Breaker is situational, sometime you can have a 'Destroy a minion ' at 6 or you can just Plot Twist it back to the deck and wait for the perfect timing.
And that's all for my deck analysis, try to comment your opinions about this deck below and let's discuss about it together. It's time to make HandLock great again!
BTW, hope you guys like the deck! <3
UPDATE 6th May :
Credits to samiwinch and TheFit .
I added 2x Doomsayer and 2x Questing Explorer against Aggro.
Removed 2x The Dark Portal and Keli'dan the Breaker. Also replaced Colossus of the Moon with Scrapyard Colossus.
Then, after some struggle between Dragonqueen Alexstrasza and Zephrys the Great. I took out this two and added a Siamat for board control at 7 mana.
It works really fine. You can just filter your deck faster with Questing Explorer and having a 2 mana 2 3 on board. Doomsayer can easily prevent face damage and Aggro in early game, such fine replacement.
Still, I will keep updating this fun deck for you guys.
Thank you for the feedback! much love <3
always loved handlock, gave the deck a couple of spins, and once it takes control it is unstoppable, however i fear aggro might still be an issue, really dont like those summoners, how about replacing them with two fellbolt to be able to clean untill your healing/hitters come online?
after extensive trying the deck just sucks, fun to play, but horribly sucks, 15% winrat is what i get, loose against almost all aggro, combo creams you priest just slaps you around... fun but no good at all
Are you sure you made to legend with this deck? Because you're dead so face decks, and have less value than control decks. Many times I have no cards left and my opponent generates many. It lacks punching power and finishing moves, removal destroys your own board state, no silence or single target removal, and the big combo is having drawn 1 card and costs 10 mana...
this deck is shit lose against anything , post prove with your win rate ,
if you like handlock try this: https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1347681-jaraxxus-knowledge-handlock
I don't know how you're not just dead on turn 5 vs DH? The deck does nothing for the first 5 turns and by then it's dead? Even if you draw something with dark portal to play on turn 5 if its not a taunt you just lose the game (and even if it is a taunt you might still lose since DH ignores taunts).
Try to add Doomsayer and Questing Explorer who will help in the first 5 turns.
50/50 winrate against DH with the right muligan . In my opinion, this deck has better survival than the HL mage.
Don't forget, this handlock is more fun deck :)
Hello there,
Very interesting deck to play, mate. I had it tested in 4 matches till now in Diamond 5 ranking and I am on a 3-1 run.
Though, I would like to propose some card replacements that could strengthen the deck a bit more maybe.
- Zephrys the Great
- Dragonqueen Alexstrasza
------------------------------------------
+ 2x Twisted Knowledge
I think that Highlander ability in this deck will usually be late to be activated, so having two "useless" cards in our -usually full- hand (maybe from early game sometimes) is probably not the best option in the current meta.
In addition, Twisted Knowledge can generate cards that could save/help you in certain situations (alternative Zephrys the Great maybe to some extent). Plus, they have nice synergy with The Dark Portal and Twilight Drake, especially if drawn early enough.
Furthermore, I would like to propose two more card replacements, mainly due to the fact that I do not possess them, but also because their chosen replacements seem, at least, equally powerful to me.
- Keli'dan the Breaker
- Colossus of the Moon
------------------------------------
+ Siamat
+ Scrapyard Colossus
Siamat can be proven an equally or in some occasions better defensive tool than Keli'dan the Breaker, since it has no draw conditions plus does not kill your other minions, like Keli'dan the Breaker in case you need to play it when you draw it. In case you do not possess neither of these two cards, you could try Siphon Soul instead, but this does not provide a minion body or a chance for multiple minions elimination. :)
Regarding Scrapyard Colossus, I think it is a fair replacement to Colossus of the Moon since a strong double taunt minion is always welcome, especially in the current meta. Plus it has a probable great synergy with Fel Lord Betrug + Plot Twist combo.
Any comments, objections or alternatives on my proposals, are more than welcome! :)
Cheers
Thanks for your feedback! I just updated the deck. Cheers
Hi, man. Like this deck.
I play - Keli'dan the Breaker, - Colossus of the Moon, - 2x The Dark Portal,
+ 2x Doomsayer against tempo/agro and +Archivist Elysiana, Siamat for more control.
But I will try to play with your deck. Thanks.
Thanks for your feedback man! Much appreciate! <3
