This is the deck I used this month to get to Legend. It's pretty usual Ramp Druid with some slight changes.
One Zombie Chow because 2 is too much and I even considered removing him completely but then I get him in Mulligan against aggro and it wins me game. Mind Control Tech is the best! Like Chow, he alone won me some games that I should've lose. Kezan Mystic is the card that I introduced in deck when I was at rank 1 so she didn't see much play. You can switch her up for Piloted Shredder if you want. Azure Drake is here for additional card draw and that sweet Swipe combo. Loatheb to have at least some chance against Oil Rogues and it's good to limit opponent's response when you manage to build some board. Ragnaros the Firelord. Unsung hero. When I started playing with this deck, I didn't have Cenarius so I decided to replace him with Rag because I desperately needed some finisher beside combo. That's madness, meta is full of BGHs, some people would say, but not me. Rag won me quite a few games. People think that Dr. Boom is the only card they need to worry about so they waste their removals on Belchers and Slyvanas leaving Rag to have fun with his fireballs.
Regarding mulligan:
I guess I don't have to mention to keep Wild Growth and Innervate whenever you can.
Against aggro you would want Zombie Chow and Wrath. If you mulligan Wild Growth or Innervate you can keep Keeper of the Grove or Piloted Shredder.
Against control it's all about those Wild Growths so try to get them, Innervates and Shade of Naxxramas.
Paladin is a special matchup in regard that keeping Swipe is a smart idea.
If you are wondering about winrate, I don't have exact number, but it took me around 150 wins to get to Legend from Rank 16.
EDIT:
I was a fool for removing Ragnaros the Firelord, he is a beast and can work together with Cenarius. I would dare to say he is even better. Sorry demigod. The Black Knight is here because taunt Druid is popular again and I also really hate handlocks.
why is he not included in this deck :D?
ok thanks :)
It looks like your struggling a little bit with this deck. I'll offer some notes.
Match one. 1) You should've thrown back savage roar in the mulligan. 2)You didn't need to coin wild growth against a slower class such as rogue 3) definitely should have inervated ancient of lore for card draw or even slammed boom on to the board.
match two. 1) wild growth on turn two with no opposing minions is a boss move you shouldn't have to think about that one. That's your dream. 2) Others may disagree but I would have played keeper on turn 5 to develop your board presence. 3) Slam Boom turn 7. There is no turn 7 there is only turn dr. boom. 4) should have played ragnaros when he only had miesha on the board.
match 3. 1) Always throw minons larger than 3 Unless they are keeper or you have inervate in which case you should keep one. 2) turn five you should've swiped that spell damage asshole and cleared the senjin. 3) turn 7 drop lore and draw cards. 4) should've attacked with your shade when he was a 4/4 but you're not losing this game and I'm going to stop here.
I would scan Lykans mulligan guide again. <- following that will be the single biggest improvement to your game.
No prob. Hope my infos help you with your fast druid game play.
Hey nice deck. Still don't have Harrison plan on crafting it next so I added an azure drake.
please don't take any offense here, but changing 1 card from savjz' s11 midrange druid, doesn't make it your deck
For those who are curious Savjz's deck (compared to this deck) uses:
-1 Sludge Belcher +1 Azure Drake
-1 Loatheb +1Savage Roar
Black knight. It has saved me many games
You said you used kezan + 2x belchers to handle mech mages. Based on your current decklist theres 2x belchers now, what would you replace to put kezan?
Was wondering about why no ancient of wars? and is there anything they could replace
lol 12 games lost at rank 10? maybe you're just trash
hi im the queen of england, nice to meet you mr legend
what do you think about replacing the shades with spider tanks? you only run 1 combo, so shades are less effectiv. but i just started to try this deck ;)
"but I don't see that many Mages and Hunters anymore" this MUST be the reason you even got legendary, otherwise I don't see any chances of this deck against current mech mages or especially face hunters
What do I trade out for Harrison? I have all the cards including Harrison, but at my low rank I don't see alot of weapon wielders.
I would recommend an other Sludge Belcher since it destroys your opponends tempo.
What do you think about substituting cenarius for sneeds ? At the moment i dont have him.
I don't have cenarius or rag either. How about another force of nature or kel thuzad?
This is quite similar to Lifecoach's deck from the KfC Spring. However, I dropped an Azure for Cenarius.
But, I am currently debating if I should add The Black Knight or Cairne Bloodhoof
