[LEGEND] Gul'dan's Demon-Handlock
Synergy
Gul'dan's hero power, Life Tap, takes a small sacrifice of his own life and turns it into card drawing power, wich synergies with Molten Giant, Mountain Giant and Twilight Drake.
Sense Demons also synergies with Mountain Giant and Twilight Drake.
Voidcaller is an extremely usefull and powerfull card (as others of Curse of Naxxramas).
It is just the core of the deck. You can get Lord Jaraxxus or even Mal'Ganis on turn 4 (if you played The Coin + Voidcaller on turn 3).
Use Sense Demons for draw Lord Jaraxxus, Mal'Ganis, Doomguard or Voidcaller.
Sunfury Protector and Defender of Argus are used for taunt your minions and keep your health safe.
Ancient Watcher depends a lot of these minions, but can also be usefull with Ironbeak Owl or Shadowflame.
Hellfire and Shadowflame are used for board clear.
Power Overwhelming does a really good combo with Voidcaller and Shadowflame. Hellfire also synergies with Molten Giant, and if some enemy minion keeps alive with 1 health, you can just use Mortal Coil that consequently synergies with Mountain Giant and Twilight Drake.

Note: The originally idea from the Demonhand was mine and one of the first Demonhand decks in Hearthpwn is this.
I am wirting this because I don't see my work being recognized as it deserves. To give you an idea, this deck: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/252689-s14-sigmas-demonhand-bulldozer is being more popular and receives more upvotes, when it is just a bad copy (in my opinion) of this and moreover the owner didn't recognized my credits.
And, it isn't just the deck I mentioned, there are a lot of other copies! Just see the "Similiar Decks".
Anyways, thank you for all the support you gave me since today!
It's fullfilled dream!
Peace, health, love and very hapinness.
Thanks, Henriquexpro.
Yes, replace him with Fearsome Doomguard. :)
I have never written a review. I am not kidding, this is the most have fun I have had playing a deck. I encourage you to give it a try!
Mulligan guide please?
I was in the bottom of the lower ranks.i was really depressed,cause i am grinding my last wins for my golden Gul'dan and i thought that playing with zoo,would be easy.NO.No way.it doesn't work for me.After 6-7 seasons playing only handlock,i suck at fast decks.
And then,searching for a deck to try,i saw this one.At first sight i thought it was gimmick,but after a big win streak,i saw the power of the deck.To be honest,i made some changes to stop the aggro wave of the very low ranks and i can say that is running great now.
In this meta,that everyone plays fast zoo or midrange demon zoo,you have the element of suprise,cause everyone believes that Handlock is dead and they mulligan wrong.Also,noone excpects a Doomguard as a finisher from a handlock.
So yeah,try it!you will have fun and wins.
The changes i made are
-1 Sense Demons for Kezan Mystic
-1Doomguard for healbot
-1 Hellfire for healbot too
one of the greatest moments was double voidacaller on board,i suicide them and had after that Mal'Ganis and Doomguard
Thx for sharing! Best warlock deck. And i tried a lot. Big thumbs up!
Thanks! :)
Hunter destroys you?
I would love to try this deck out, but any suggestion for a Malganus replacement? Maybe a demon heart?
funny deck. but you must be very lucky againts hunter/aggro. i like it!
replaced 1 Hellfire for Demonheart
Nice deck. Switched one Doomguard for one Antique Healbot for more aggro consistancy
Fun variation, but no dark bombs or heals so aggro can be tough if you don't taunt up or clear soon enough, and no belchers. Against control, you have no BGH or siphon, so you have to rely on board clears or trades for removal. Overall it's greedy, but fun when it works.
Yes, I'm working on it.
So this variation on the handlock is pretty interesting. It's actually very simplistic in design since it's all in pairs, leaving it easier for you to keep track of what you've drawn/played and what you still have left in the deck. It also has some insane burst combo potential going with it if you are getting something down and need to double Power Overwhelming. (I even got a 17/17 molten combo off for a suprise lethal on a freeze mage)
Now on to the cons...
The reason why this deck is so unconventional is the lack of heals from stuff like Earthen Ring and Healbots. Because of this, you need to lay down some serious control with your Hellfires/Shadowfuegos and try to keep that board control as best as you can. You can't afford to take any excess damage ESPECIALLY against super aggros like face hunts and whatnot. This deck also struggles against Priest a bit.. At least from my luck anyway. You may have better success.
Just play it smart; take as much time as Lifecoach if you have to. This deck is pretty legit.. May make some changes as I play in the current meta, but so far I am really enjoying the complicated simplicity to this handlock archetype.
Please post below with any changes you've made with your rank climb - I'm currently using at ranks 8-7
