 What is the point of Candleshot here?

It's so good against any agro for killing 2/1s and 1/1s. Otherwise, it's just good to have something like that through the game cause very often you're missing 1 dmg to kill a minion.

Another cool deck. I've been trying Reno hunter for months w DK rexxar but it's always so niche. Will try this list out. I was using Ursatron, Claw Machine, and Darkmoon Tonk as well. Thoughts? Also tried out Teron Gorefiend which was an amazing combo w Sylvannas (targeted mind control then another Sylvannas) but can be slow and clunky other times

Also the secret that gives a 3/3 copy of a minion when it's attacked is great for getting a second copy of a good deathrattle minion. Would swap freezing trap for that

Deathrattle package is very flexible so yes, these changes are very good, especially if you don't have something like The Rat King. If you decide to play mechs u can also add Zilliax.

Sylvanas is very slow by herself now so any combo with her is way to slow, but after some balance change who knows, who knows.

I'm not sure about the secret. I guess there will be many situations when the secret keeps being useless against aggro, but the idea for copying deathrattle minions is very good, unfortunately- to slow.

I don't have Kazakus, Golem Sharper and Zola the Gorgon, replaced it with Loatheb and Darkmoon Tonk, and tbf. the deck is actually playable at legend (800-2000). I guess people don't hardtry there as much as on lower ranks

Definitely gonna try out more cards like Zixor, Apex Predator, I love the fact that this is not a play quest, stop brain deck.

If you don't have Kazakus, you can put that weapon with secrets. If you don't have problem with early game, then those changes are pretty fine.

Unplayble in this meta.

Unfortunately yes. You can be successful for a while but after that you will meet 5 warlocks in a row...

Same shit with mages. They killed me on turn 6 insta. Fucking Sorcerer's Apprentice annoying as hell. All spells in face, very interesting and enjoyable gameplay vs yourself. But your deck is good on paper. So sad about dumb meta...

Play tested this a bit, I would add:

• Scavenger's Ingenuity
• Powershot
• Zixor, Apex Predator

And remove:

• Freezing Trap
• Mankrik
• Dragonqueen Alexstrasza

Very interesting changes. I think i will try Zixxor for Dragonqueen, cause i think Mankrik is just to good with Barak Kodobane. But tell me, what with additional copies of Zixxor. Is this risk small enough?

Yeah, Dragonqueen Alexstrasza doesn't help with aggro matchups. Freezing Trap is in a similar situation. If you want to keep Mankrik, you could take out one of the 6 or 5 drops. I would still switch in Bola Shot instead of Powershot if you want to keep that combo consistent.

Something else you could try is switching out Zola the Gorgon for Brann Bronzebeard, I think it synergizes with the deck better (except for Reno Jackson). But honestly, most of the aggro decks can race out turn 9 (to guarantee a copy).

One more thing, N'Zoth, the Corruptor could be cut since it cost so much. Jewel of N'Zoth effectively does the same thing.

The version I used to play ran Zixxor. The issue is if you get a second copy of Zixxor (Jewel of N'Zoth, N'Zoth himself, etc.), And end up with two Zixxor Prime in deck, then it messes up the singleton synergy with Reno and Zephrys. Doesn't happen often but has happened to me before

Possible replacement for the king of rats?

I think Teacher's Pet would be good enough.
