Has been building and testing fun decks and one of them turned out to be pretty good in standard. Started from plat 8 and just climbed to legend in few days.
This deck's main combo is Mosh Pit + Masked Reveler . Always keep them in mulligan stage, aim for them, keep your coin for them. Obsidian Revenant is another option, usually stronger against aggressive decks. Make sure to have corpses for turn 5-6 and in most matchups drop these guys even on an empty board. Manage Mosh Pit and Death Growl in your own way throughout the game to preserve the dominance.
There are three main ways to win:
1) Board pressure (early dropping strong nasty minions, copying their deathrattles and applying reborn while deactivating reno with plagues)
2) Surprise 18 dmg Cage Head + Death Growl combo
3) The four horsemen (Won this way pretty often. Keep some of your reborn or death growl for Flesh Behemoth. Unholy Frenzy might help with killing last horsemen or Rivendare from hand.
All three ways might be tried in the one same match, but first one is most important. Don't rely on plagues too much, they are used here mostly for disrupting Reno cards and keeping tempo. There is no need to coin Helya or something like that.
Unholy Frenzy is the most replaceable card.
This is a very fun and apparently strong deck, so I thought I'd share it with you. Hope you have as much fun with it as I did.
This deck is a lot of fun. I just came back to Hearthstone after falling off around 2019 and wanted to try DK and this is the best way to do it and get re-introduced to some of the new meta
Funny but terrible, has a bad curve, you need too much luck with draws and some rattles are too random
That could be said to every big minion deck, however this one has more fun and randomness. Strong and stable decks you’re looking for are formed and consolidated very fast, they are literally every deck you see in ladder the most. I often took the legend with homemade decks and this time decided to share a strong and unstable one.
Thank you very much, you described exactly thing I felt over and over again while climbing! Completely agree, I thought that Northern Navigation would be a likely-replacement card, but it turned out to be a great fit for the deck. However, Unholy Frenzy probably is the weakest one. I should mention this in the description
Unholy Frenzy with Reska has been amazing for me, FYI
It combines great with almost everything for me, even Mining Casualties and Crop Rotation in some situations. However it's very hard to part with other cards. I see this one can be replaced with something like Construct Quarter for someone.
trash only enemy on steam cleaners and Silence.
Mentioned below bout steamcleaner. If you mean priests who run 2 shards of naaru, they weren't a problem either. Requires slightly different playstyle like keeping moshpit activations, respecting amanthul and bringing out plagues. Did not face new priest deck with crazy card draw and steals though.
Really fun deck. 3-1 so far. Lost against a Brann rEno Warrior who managed to Reno me when I didn't have duplicate plagues in his deck.
This is so much fun and creatively original!
Reno Warrior had been so annoying to play against. Thanks for sharing :-)
at least a dk deck without the excavate pack. I see its fun if drawn well but Rivendare is so easily played around and interrupted. And until Rivendare died its pretty weak. Maybe I'd prefer a Nerubian for spelldisc. in there. The masked combo is also very late and random
Rivendare was added as perfect fodder for Flesh Behemoth but made me win most games against Warriors and Druids. Many decks run steamcleaner, but won't have time to spend mana for casual minions like ETC and cleaner once you cheat out some of your strong minions. I treat him like fodder in most matchups and still often win thanks to him. Do not copy his deathrattle or reborn him, he is just one of 30 cards here with some potential and cool synergy with behemoth.
I tried many variations of rattle decks including Boneshredder and 4-mana double-deathrattle activation minion but masked reveler-oriented deck performed much better
I see, so Helya needs to be out before playing the Masked combo obviously. And Rivendare needs to die, so maybe I would add another frenzy or nother location? Because either the Warr/druids have enough time to find the steamcleaner or just their reno before one can pollute their deck
Location is great idea! Not sure about second frenzy. There were games with like 2 growls and frenzy resting in hand for a better day
Best way to treat rivendare is just drop him from behemoth. If he is in hand, might not even play him in fast matchups.
I was always going for masked combo even with Helya in deck. Turn 5-6 she will have about 14% to pop up but we usually have bonus attempt . As you see the cost of having multiple win conditions is roughness in some combinations
