UPDATE: Here is the current version for standard mode that I am working on, feel free to leave your comments/suggestions/criticisms in the topic: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/476227-dragon-renolock-theorycraft-standard
Hello folks, while lying in bed trying to fall asleep I had this idea about making a dragon/demon warlock. When I woke up I decided to give it a shot, it didn't go well at first so I removed the demon part of the deck, added Twisting Nether, Abusive sergeant, and my go-to dragon Volcanic Drake since I felt like it would fit well in this aoe heavy deck.
I went on a 8-2 run went from 1500 to 500 legend and decided to share it with you guys and see what you think, more people testing is better than one :P
Here are few gameplay videos, explaining some matchups:
There is a bonus clip at the end of druid video featuring double combo, check it out! :D
More videos incoming soon!
Really hope you guys enjoy the deck.

Well, it's pretty straight foward: Volcanic Drake for tempo gain after board wipes or politrades with your imps, and Abusive Sargeant because ADD ME TO YOUR DECK, MAGGOT!. Uhm, sorry. I mean, yeah, I don't see any specific role for him, but it still can generate some value gain, enabling trades otherwise you wouldn't be able to make, doing his usual agressive role, and is another BC for Brann.
Ya, the deck is fun as hell. I tried a dragon Reno a while ago (kinda had the idea to mix Malylock and RenoLock), but this list looks more well thought out!
Only thing I would not play without is Lord Jaraxxas. He extremely improves the Priest / Warrior (or any non-burst control deck) match and can win those single handed!
Jaraxxus is probably your best bet, they serve similair roles and he's solid.
Greetings my fellow warlock,
Do you think it would be viable to replace Defender of Argus with Enhance o'bot? Can think if mind twisting synergies. ^^
Well you need a board for that, but I guess you need it for defender as well, except that defender is guaranteed to give you taunts when you need them, enhance is not. So I guess its high risk high reward situation, you can give it a shot if you want and tell us how it went.
What could be a good replacement for twisting nether?
I dont have Alexstrasza, but i do have deathwing, chillmaw and nefarian. Could those fit in the deck and what would be the best replacement for alexstrasza ? Thanks
Probably nefarian, chillmaw can be good as well as an extra aoe, give them both a try :P
Loving this deck ty ranked from 18 to rank 10 today it is a lot of fun too play
I am glad you are having fun with it.
which one is better in this deck?
Volcanic Drake or Sylvanas Windrunner ?
Volcanic Drake imo
Strong. Thanks for the deck Saranjivac. Went from rank 14 to 8 in last two days (around 20 games and 15 W). I don't have Alexstrasza, so I use Nefarian instead. Good job on the deck man.
Tnx, glad you liked it :P To bad ppl stopped liking so its off the front page now :~( xD
I have to ask, why would you play the twisting nether instead of jaraxxus? I understand the board clear potential, but at the same time it looks like you're trying to keep dragons on the field and twisting nether doesn't help with that. Jaraxxus would seemingly make this deck the most lategame-ass shit ever with alexstraza AND reno, but that's how renolock wins. Just a sugession.
Sometimes you get overwhelmed at one point, and that is when Twisting Nether comes into play :) But if your change works for you then you should most definitely keep it!
P.S. I'm uploading 2 new videos where TN came quite handy, stay tuned you might like them! :P
sick deck bro
Here is my review of this deck. Overall, its pretty solid. I was thinking of replacing Brann but the combo potential with him is just too great (18 Health Twilight Drake)
Mind Control Tech
Quite low win rate. Reno decks need some luck but this deck needs miracles in many situations.
