PRAISE LORD JARAXXUS, THIS DECK IS MY NEW FAVORITE. I'VE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE RAGE QUIT BECAUSE THIS DECK WALLS THEM COMPLETELY. DEFINITELY NOT PERFECT AGAINST ALL MATCH-UPS BUT IT IS A VERY VERY FUN DECK.

I CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS DECK AND THE IDEA OF IT, BUT I FEEL LIKE SOME SORT OF GUIDE IS REALLY NEEDED HERE OUTSIDE OF CONTROLLING THE BOARD.

HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO PLAY AROUND ALL OF THE BURST FROM HAND IN THIS META? WHAT OPPONENTS ARE JUST LETTING YOU SET UP ALL OF THESE CRAZY EXPENSIVE CARDS? EVERYTIME I HAVE PLAYED THE DARK MARROW + RIN COMBO, IT FEELS LIKE IT DIDN'T DO MUCH, MADE THINGS WORSE, OR JUST FLAT OUT BENEFITED MY OPPONENT MORE. NOT TRYING TO CRITICIZE YOUR LIST BECAUSE I THINK IT'S AWESOME, I'M JUST SO LOST.

USING RIN IS THE HARDEST THING ABOUT OPERATING THIS DECK, SHE IS THE DOUBLE EDGED SWORD THAT MAY WIN-LOSE YOU THE GAME ON THE SPOT! FIRST AND FOREMOST IT IS CRUCIAL TO ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE A CARD ADVANTAGE BEFORE PLAYING HER, AND THAT PLAY YOUR MOST IMPORTAND WIN CONDITIONS FIRST - SYMPHONY OF SINS, SANGREAS THE DESTROYER, RENO. 

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PLAY HER IN EACH OF EVERY MATCHUP, AS SHE IS A CARD THAT LOOSES YOU PLENTY OF TEMPO. IN AGROO DECKS, TRY INSTEAD PLAYING SUMMONER DARKMARROW WITH FROSTBITTEN FREEBOOTER. 

RIN SHOULD BE PLAYED IN 3 DIFFERENT SCENARIOS. 

1. WHEN YOU PLAY AGAINST A DECK THAT RELIES ON A SINGLE STRONG CARD, LIKE BRANN OR ZARIMI. 

2. WHEN YOU PLAY AGAINST A COMBO DECK, AND THERE IS STRONG PROBABILITY THAT YOU MAY BURN THEIR KEY CARDS. 

3. WHEN YOU ARE IN THE FINAL STAGES OF THE GAME AND ENEMY IS CLOSE TO FATIGUE! 

IF YOU ARE IN A MATCHUP WHERE RIN IS AN APPEALING  CARD TO PLAY , YOU SHOULD DO IT DIRECTLY AFTER THE RENO TURN, TO ENSURE THAT ENEMY CAN'T DEVELOP TOO MANY STRONG MINIONS. 

THIS IS A PURE CONTROL DECK, NOT THE COMBO DECK! YOUR MOST IMPORTANT OBJECTIVE IS TO HAVE AN ANSWER TO WHATEVER YOUR OPPONENT MAY PLAY, AND SLOWLY WIN WITH PRESSURE PROVIDED WITH SANGREAS AND SIMPHONY OF SINS! RIN SHOULD BE RATHER TREATED AS A DISRUPTION CARD. 

TRULY SPEAKING, RIN IS IN THIS DECK ONLY BECAUSE SHE IS MY FAVOURITE CARD, AND THE CHAOS SHE BRINGS IS MOST PLEASURABLE. IF YOU WANT TO MAKE THIS DECK MORE COMPETETIVE, I WOULD SUGGEST TO INSTEAD PLAY ZOLA, HELLFIRE, HARTH STONEBREW, SYLVANAS OR ETHERNAL FLAME + WATCHER OF THE SUN COMBO FOR BIG STRONG WEAPON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I WISH YOU LUCK, PRAISE OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JARAAXUS1!

PS. WHEN IT TO COMES TO BURN FROM HAND, THERE ISN'T REALLY A BETTER ADVICE THEN WELL TIMED RAT, AS WELL AS STAYING AT LEAST ABOVE 20 HP AT ALL TIMES! IN AN AGROO MATCHUP TO MAKE IT EASIER, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS KEEP POPGAR IN OPENING HAND, AS IF NEEDED YOU CAN TEMPO IT ON TURN 4 AND MAKE ENEMY CHOOSE BETWEEN GOING FACE OR GIVING YOU FREE HEALING TURN AFTER! DON'T FORGET THAT "HEALTH DRINK" IS A FEL SPELL AS WELL AND IS REDUCED TO 1 MANA WHEN POP IS ON BOARD! DON'T UNDERASTIMATE HOW MUCH HEALING YOU GET FROM HEALTHDRINK, IN SOME MATCHUPS IT IS ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT TO COPY IT WITH TIDEPOOL PUPIL!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! THIS IS VERY HELPFUL AND I HAVE A MUCH BETTER IDEA OF HOW TO APPROACH GAMES. I WILL BE SURE TO EXPERIMENT LOTS. PRAISE LORD JARAXXUS!

OH AND ONE MORE QUESTION I HAD IS IF YOU EVER HAVE SCENARIOS WHERE YOU PLAY RIN BY HERSELF?

YES, IN SOME SPECIFIC MATCHUPS LIKE DRAGON PRIESTS OR DRUID YOU CAN PLAY RIN TO MAKE YOUR ENEMY OVER COMMIT SOME UNITS IN THE EARLIER STAGES BY PLAYING HER ON CURVE! PLAYERS WILL WANT TO ENSURE THAT THEY HAVE ENOUGH UNITS TO PLAY ZARIMI BUT AT THE SAME TIME THEY LOSE A LOT OF TEMPO AND ARE MORE SUISAPTABLE TO AOE LIKE DOMINO. YOU CAN ALWAYS USE RIN+REVERB  INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR SUMMONER DARKMARROW, WHICH IS WHY I INCLUDED AN EXTRA COPY IN ETC!

THIS IS AMAZING, I'VE BEEN PLAYING A HOMEBREW RENOLOCK SINCE WHIZBANG WORKSHOP, I'LL GIVE THIS A TRY. THANK YOU!

I've been playing this deck and it's fun, but i wonder, How does Zilliax interact with Darkmarrow? Does it just shuffle the Zilliax into your deck and that's it?

IT SHUFFLES ZILLIAX ONCE, TO COPY ZILLIAX EFFECT YOU MUST  USE REVERBERATION INSTEAD, HOVEWER I SHOULD RECCOMEND LEAVING IT FOR RIN COMBO, OR TRY TO ADD FROSTBITTER FREEBOOTER IF YOU FACE A LOT OF MANA CHEATING DECKS / WEAPON HEAVY DECKS

CAN I REPLACE THOSE 3 CARDS: PHOTOGRAPHER FIZZLE / RIN, ORCHESTRATOR OF DOOM / YOGG SARON, UNLEASHED ? THE ONLY 3 CARDS I DON'T HAVE...

YOU CAN! MY RECOMMENDETION FOR THESE THREE WOULD BE ZOLA, TABLE FLIP/HELLFIRE AND EITHER HARTH STONEBREW, GNOMELIA OR AUDIO AMPLIFIER! YOU CAN ALSO RUN VERSION WITH IGNIS THE ETERNAL FLAME - WATCHER OF THE SUN FOR A LATE GAME WEAPON AND SURVIVABILITY! 

YOU CAN ALSO TRY ADDING IN FROSTBITTEN FREEBOOTER OR EVEN SYLVANAS TO COMBO WITH SUMMONER DARKMARROW!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE RECCOMENDATIONS MAN! WILL TRY THEM OUT ALL AND SEE WHICH FITS THE DECK THE MOST.

I WILL AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE IN WHICH YOU TELL ME WHICH COMBINATION WORKS BEST, AS I AM AS WELL TRYING TO MAKE THIS DECK MORE VIABLE IN THE CURRENT META!

 PS, IF YOU FACE A LOT OF VALUE ORIENTED DECKS LIKE CONTROL PRIEST OR PLAGUE DK- ADD ANNOUNCE DARKNESS + ENCROACHING INSANITY TO YOUR ETC. IF YOU FACE HANDBUFF PALADIN, WELL YOU'RE SCREWED ANYWAY BUT EXTRA COPY OF DEFILE OR SIPHON SOUL MAY JUST SAVE YOUR LIFE 

 I am 7-0 with this deck atm. Only in plat but who cares. Im loving it thanks mate :D

IM GLAD YOU ENJOY IT! WE NEED MORE CONTROL ORIENTED META!
