Hey guys,
I'm happy to share my Druid list that took me easily from Legend 3000 to Legend 8 on EU today. It's a nice aggro deck that uses new TGT cards. If you lack the twin sisters you can try replacing them with Harvest Golems, or Silver Hand Reagent, but it will obviously weaken the deck.
Here is a youtube guide I've made with deck explanation and some sample games.
Main points are:
- mulligan for low drops, keep innervate
- cast innervate early to gain the advantage
- fight for initiative and be aggressive
- don't be afraid to trade, if a good one presents itself
- count damage and possible burst in case of topdecks. Know your outs and make correct assumption based on them.
Have fun with the deck! Happy laddering ^^
P.S. Big shutout to my friend TPLWater for refining the list with me.
Cheers,
Gnimsh
Went on a win-streak from rank 11 to rank 6 with this deck in 16 matches, with a 100% win-rate against paladins (they feel so slow and hopeless against this deck) and 80% against face-hunters !
Oh, and I don't even have the two sisters -- replaced them with 2 druid of the flame, which were MVP in some matches, hitting for 5 in the face for 2 or 3 turns, maybe they do make the deck better, but I didn't really feel like I needed the sisters at any moment.
Once I got to 6, I lost a few games due to bad draws, getting some 4-5 drops in hand with just a 2 drop and no living roots, but I'm still on 72% win-rate with it. Get those little roots out on turn 1, curve into your drops nicely and pretty much nothing can stop you ! One of the most satisfying feelings in this game, to see a face-hunter having to trade with your board !
Thank you for this deck, Gnimish, it's amazing !! :D
Thank you so much for posting! Amazing deck! 12-0 from rank 10 to 5. Please keep it updated.
Love this deck. Have bee playing it on and off and it's always a blast to rush a Secret pally or Combo druid down by turn 6
Keep updating this deck with any tweaks!
I made The Gnimsh Druid Part 2, and I have not played any Ranked games since Part 1 two weeks ago haha
I really enjoy playing this deck, and I plan on grinding the ladder in Season 19. Forgive any of my misplays...I'm sure there are a few during the games ;)
DUDE! Perfect deck. Bless you..
Gnimsh, great Roar-Druid you've built here. I've been piloting Roar-Druid on and off since beta with several Rank 2,3 finishes but it's a deck which has eluded me for Legendary... until now. Currently Rank 2 and closing in.
Anyhow, here is the version I'm playing. I'd love to hear play test feedback from anyone with Druid skill, so let me know!
A few notes:
- I'm still torn over Shredder or Teacher. In my last 20 or so games I've been happy with Teacher who seems to perform a bit more consistently than the Shredder. She also provides good synergy with any spare Roots in your hand, the extra PoW I play, and the extra buff card, Mark of Nature.
-Speaking about the Mark of Nature inclusion, this card has won me dozens of games. It is not a great card on its own, but its ability to pump the hell out of the Banes or finish opponents cannot be ignored. I've found it more helpful than the additional Flamejuggler or Savage.
-Again, I'd love to hear others thoughts. Enjoy!
Hi: I'm a relatively casual player but I'm trying to build a Token Druid that's fairly aggressive and someone on Reddit pointed me at this deck. I'm curious how you deal with heavy control decks wiich I pretty reliably lose against (most Priest and Warrior decks in particular). I can beat other midrange and agro decks pretty well for the most part, except for Face Hunter. Deck list is in flux but I will note that I'm a F2P player and don't have most of the non-adventure Legendaries. The main (but not only) differences from your list is that my 2-drop minions tend toward the 2-for-the-price-of-1 (Creepers, Echoing Ooze), it runs Violet Teacher and it runs a lot more spells, i.e. Wrath.

Yeah sometimes you get a real bad start, and don't have a chance like you said. But, most times you can win a lot of the games...which is good. Btw, awesome job on climbing to Rank 5! Did you use this deck all 91 games?
This is one of my favorite Druid decks! It's awesome, and I made a video featuring a few of my matches from last night! Thanks a lot for sharing with us, Gnimsh :)
Hey Gnimsh! This is the coolest deck I ever played in Hearthstone :') Great guides, video helped me to understand all the tempo plays. Huge props!
great deck, 65% win-rate after 90~ games
I went 8-0 from rank 20 to 15 without ever having played druid. Tons of misplays on my part (combo math is hard). I Almost lost to a golden totem shaman, but killed him with a top deck keeper. I'm still waiting for the dream Living Roots x 2, power of the wild, and Savage Roar. Such a fun deck to play.
Its working well but it seems that the sisters could be easily replaced
Its a really interesting deck but I dont understand something: I repeat the unanswered question of a friend below. Why you use both twins?. Only for the cost/stats/aggro?. There is only a card x2 that could target them (unless you use roots)...
Gnimish, ty so much for a fun and affordable (already had most cards in my collection) deck! Have a GREAT day! Btw, subbd Fjola with a Spider tank.
Affordable, heh.
I meant with cards already in my collection. Edited.
I crushed rank with this, cruising to rank 5 no problem for my max Chest.
It is not an easy deck to play. Don't take it directly into rank.
I only had a losing record to control warriors (who kept top decking like gods).
Is it just me or do the twins not fit this deck... like at all? I don't see the value of taking them when you only have two spells that you would even want to target them with. I feel like you're better off taking tech cards like Mind Control Tech or Kezan Mystic or more early game like Haunted Creeper or Argent Horserider
