^^ The all important proof ^^
Hello, everybody this is the zoo list I used to climb to legend for the first time. Basically it's classic zoo with Imp Gang Boss in place of harvest golem. The deck is favored against Druids and other aggro decks (including the dreaded face hunter) because you can more or less out tempo em'.
Standard Mull is one drops and 2 drops minus Owl and egg unless you have abusive with it . Imp gang is okay to keep if you curve into it.
Warriors: Standard mull keep. don't keep egg even with abusive. Keep Imp gang
Shaman: Keep imp Gang
Rouge: Don't keep egg or abusive
Paladin: Standard Mull. Haunted creeper and abusive are extra important in this match up.
Hunter: Standard mull + Keep Owl, Impgang, and keep egg even if you do not have abusive. Keep argus if you have coin and like the rest of your hand. Creeper and Void walker is extra important.
Druid: Standard mull
Warlock: Standard Mull keep owl, Egg + abusive combo is extra potent in the mirror
Mage: Standard Mull
Priest: Standard mull + Power overwhelming to deal with Deathlord and buffed creatures/ Your 3/2s are extra important to deal with Cleric.
Amazing, I love that this deck can play in any role, good job!
"Social Justice Paladin" "Midget Hunter" "Sexy Hunter" "Motherfucker Run". +1 added to fav
At first, I thought Imp Gang Boss was just gonna be another one of the more useless cards from BRM, but after using it in Zoo, I feel like it actually has a lot of potential. When it's not summoning 1 or more 1/1 buff targets, it's being a target for a silence, making it easier for your bigger targets to not be silenced.
Vs face hunter you want to focus on clearing their board. You won't out damage them if you are just hitting face and letting their minions survive.
Vs control with AoE it a tricky matchup. You need to keep in mind when their AoEs come down. Don't overcommit to the board before the AoE comes down and make sure to mull for things with more than 1 HP vs Warrior. Drop more threats after they clear. The only exception to this is if you have a really fast hand in which case you might be able to race.
And how exactly is this working for you?
Nice deck. Do you stream or do you know any pros that have used this deck on stream? Thank you.
Cancer is in the eye of the beholder I suppose. If the good people wish to play Cancer than that is their choice. I am just providing them the tools.
Oh please. These decks are popular for a reason. It let's new comers and/or people with bad legendaries have a shot at climbing the ranks and making gold quickly.
Replaced Clockwork Gnome and Loatheb With Stalagg and Feugen. Gives that much needed late game "Oh F-" factor <3
Yeaah if that works for you then that's awesome. But mostly when someone sees you drop one of those cards they're going to be preparing to kill Thaddius the moment he spawns. IF he spawns.
gang up Stalagg
lmao y
Would a second owl instead of clockwork gnome be legit?
If you think you're facing off against enough stuff to warrant two silences then yea, it's probably fine.
Every mirror match I lose. Is there any recommendations for tech cards against mirror?
Sacrificial Pact can be hilarious.
Don't actually run pact unless you're facing like 70% Warlocks
imp gang is good but .... following trumps words...its not that good... just saying and i kind of agree.
Have you played with the card? Its insanely good. And a 3 drop that was really needed for zoo. 1/1s are very good with all the buffs and a 2/4 body is also very very good with a dire wolf or an argus.
I love this deck (I've never been more comfortable with an archetype than Warlock Zoo) and I'm glad to see post-GvG Zoo coming back.
I do, however, feel like Clockwork Gnome is awkward in this deck. It's the only card that feels like filler. I'm wondering if anyone has a great substitution for it? I've tried Harvest Golem and Void Terror and a second Ironbeak Owl
The Void Terror is nice, but still doesn't feel like it gives this deck much more power.
Thoughts?
