Wanted to share my Standard Menagerie Highlander Warlock deck.
I didn't expect much of it in competitive play. Turns out, it works very well on the ladder. So far, 83% win rate.
Give it a shot in Standard and tell me what you think!

I've been playing this between 300 - 100 legend and it seems like the best version may be somewhere in between this and your "new version". Losing Backfire and Frozen Shadoweaver were both good calls, but not so sure about adding Albatross instead of Pearltusk.
I kept the Pearltusk, added C'thun and Fishy Flier. Fishy Flier is definitely not winning prizes for efficiency, but it manages to fill some really important niche rolls, such as the incredibly scary 7/7 Questing Aventurer on turn 3-4 answer.
I don't really see where Vol'jin fits in this deck, so I took him out for DQ Alex. I realize this deck is not supposed to be the most serious of serious competitive deck, but it's not terrible, either.
Thank you for the feedback. It truly means a lot to me.
Nice to hear that the deck is doing fine in High Legend. Well, the story behind the deck is a classic Reno story you can hear almost anywhere: Took a pile of cards and made it into a deck. I piled up what I had. So, no DQA, no Siamat, no Harrison Jones and whatnot.
I've put Bad Luck Albatross in because I see it as a 3+/5 disruption card, especially with some Highlander Priests and Druids hanging around. Pearltusk was fine, but corrupting it had me waiting a while more than a few times. Fishy was considered, but didn't make my cut because I didn't want to flood the deck with too much 4-drops. Perhaps I should reconsider him.
If you update the deck some more and do fantastic with it - let us all know, at HearthPwn. Have a good one!
You know it’s good when you get rage friended on your second game with a deck. Super fun! Made a few swaps (Siamat and dragon queen) and am loving it.
Glad to hear it. I hope Siamat and Dragonqueen Alexstrasza work out for you!
Very interesting deck, I've had sime fun games wating for the next expansion with it.
I've tried to replace Runaway Blackwing with Dragonqueen Alexstrasza for the dragon tribe, what do you think about this change?
Firstly, thanks for the comment. :) Dragonqueen Alexstrasza is alright, but it doesn't provide what I was aiming at with Runaway Blackwing, and that is a strong removal. Once it hits the board, at the end of the turn, you've got a certain removal of minimum one creature. Then, once you revive it with N'zoth, the effect will take place again, which isn't going to happen with Alex. If you want to try Alex, I suggest you go down the dragon road - and play Nether Breath, Crazed Netherwing and such. Or, if you desire just a small change, play Classic Alexstrasza. Again, it won't grant you battlecry once you ress it with N'zoth, but will help you out at least once, either as a finisher or a lifesaver.
Nice to hear. I've chosen Frozen Shadoweawer just for the sake of Rogues. She proved to be useful, but - you're right. There certainly are better replacements. I'd try out Siamat and/or Dragonqueen Alexstrazsa but, unfortunately, I do not have them in my collection. If you do, give them a try, too.
Great deck thx for idea!
I am experimenting with some modifications to make it even better. So far I removed Frozen Shadoweawer as it is just a weak card and replaced it with Felosophy as copying a Demon of your choice is very good and depending on match up you can choose which one is the best.
