Hey guys, that's the first deck I publish here, a Warlock based on self-damages.
The key cards, in the main part of the game, are for sure Diseased Vulture and Darkglare. Honestly the second one is the card that made me think about this deck. Flame Imp, Raise Dead and expecially Neferset Thrasher support our strategy very well: facing a turn3 (4/5) forces our enemies to waste spells or their starting minions, and if they don't, a turn 4 Diseased Vulture or Darkglare could already turn the game. Usually any combination on those cards take us to have a big hand and a good board around tuns 4-5, but we can be even more aggressive if we start with Kanrethad Ebonlocke.
Alongside this strategy, the Soul Fragments mechanic fits perfectly:
-We usually don't want to play Flame Imp on turn 1 so Spirit Jailer is the 1-drop we need
-Fragments give us health helping us staying alive, even cause we draw consistently, and trigger the health-change mechanich too
-Soul Shear and Shadowlight Scholar are good early removals that balances the deck (almos without control-spells) against aggro decks
-Void Drinker imo is a really op card, the cost is perfect to "close" our mana curve in the first part of the game, it protects our key minions from Rush and Weapons, and sometimes take big removals, making our Flesh Giant and Enhanced Dreadlord more elusive
-Soulciologist Malicia is not a must-have in this deck in my opinion, so you can save 1600 dust, but in some match-ups can really turn the game
The mid-late game is usually about dropping big minions at low cost, resurrecting with our Prime, and find the way to close the game. Usually the key is that our opponents has no more solutions, if we had a good value start.
Watching the cardlist this is for sure a midrange deck, but I noticed that the best games I had has been aggressive matches, so I'm wondering if to try to turn it into an aggro, removing cards like Enhanced Dreadlord, Vectus and Brittlebone Destroyer... but honestly I never play aggro decks so if anyone has some idea about how we can twist this deck let me know!
Thanks everybody for reading, as my first time here I ask you to tell me in the comments what do you think about the deck... but mostly about this little guide, I feel like this is quite bad so help me improve :)

Nice deck and concept. :) And yes you were right vectus seems to be out of position :D . Have u tried including matron card ?
Cool deck, thanks MadArthur21
Thank you!
Must be nice being able to copy my list card for card then pass it off as your own.....smh
my original list was what he is copying above without any credit.
Wtf man? Why should i say you in the comments “go watch my deck” if it’s copied from yours?
We just had the same idea, the main cards are quite obvious to choose and than we have some different ones.
Lol you created it after your comment to my deck, let’s not kid ourselves. (It says clearly created 8/7/20 so cut the bullshit would ya).
No I posted this, then I looked for something similar to find new ideas and i found and commented yours.
I think you’re too much into this, i don’t get why i should copy another deck, do you earn something posting here?
Your deck was created on the site today, mine was made before the expansion. And it’s common courtesy to give credit when u copy decks. Don’t beat around the bush.
Omg how long you want to go on? I created this, then today i saw yours (similar). I repeat, why the fuck should i tell you to watch the deck i copied from you? Why should i lie? Answer theese two questions.
and why should i care about all this, i am a fucking lawyer, i don’t give a fuck about this site, i’m just sick at home and posted my deck! You have some problems.
It’s all good, copy my deck. Your just spreading the word for me.
And similar is quite the euphemism here when it’s 29 out of 30 identical cards.
Spread the word... i can’t believe you are 22.. do something in your life please.
Anyway I count 27. And school spirits is the opposite of how i play this deck.
I added the School Spirits after play testing, go check the original version, card for card minus one sense demons. And dw about my life thanks. I’m having a blast.
