I've been tinkering around with the deck trying to make it better since it was considerably weak against some matchups, and I came up with this new version. It is the same concept although it is a bit more expensive.

What do you mean by Situational Cards and Key Cards?
Key Cards play a major role in the combo and cannot be spared from being drawn from the deck or from being removed from the deck.
Situational Cards play a minor role in the combo and can be spared from being drawn from the deck but not from being removed from the deck.
Replaceable Situational Cards play an intermediate role in the combo, they can be spared from being drawn from the deck and can also be replaced by a different card if you wish, but I highly recommend keeping them on the deck.
Why no Sanctum Chandler instead of Gadgetzan Auctioneer
Because sadly Sanctum Chandler only works with Fire Spells unlike Gadgetzan Auctioneer, there would simply not be enough synergy with it.
The idea is good, but the actual performance of this deck is horrible given how fast the meta is, and the freeze is basically useless against questline warlock and hunter. I even took 2 tries to beat the innkeeper.
It takes some time getting used to, the deck is not as straightforward as it looks, you should give it a second chance. Also, I don't know if you are referring to the old version of the deck, but if that's the case you should try the newer version. I decided to get rid of the old one completely since it was really weak. I also updated the description with more useful information and with some of my replays. Hope it helps! :)
How good is it against Questlock?
It’s useless against Questlocks
I will post my stats and some match replays soon but it's not useless. It is possible to win against them, although as everyone knows Questlock it's pretty busted right now, even after the nerf.
I'm curious to try it and comoare it to the Fire Elemental OTK and see which one is the easier to pull off. I'll use Molten Reflection instead of Simulacrum (mainly because I don't want to craft it)
Reason i chose to put Simulacrum over Molten Reflection in the deck is because of Secrets, in particular Explosive Runes, Potion of Polymorph, Snipe and Pressure Plate, but Molten Reflection is definitely a good substitution.
After around 30 games I can say that it actually feels pretty good, although yes dead draws are very bad vs Questlock and whatsoever it's definitely smoother than the Fire/Elemental one. I see what you mean with Simulacrum being good against those secrets but I was lucky enough to not play against them.
Happy to hear that, any feedback is always welcomed! :)
