Survive and draw cards until you set up the combo of Molten Giant + a bounce spell of your choice (Youthful Brewmaster or Ancient Brewmaster w/Shadowstep.)
Needless to say you should be at or below 10 health so Molten Giants cost 0 so use your face liberally on minions.
Mulligan aggressively for Molten Giants and your bounce spells.
Probably not the best deck, but one of the most fun for the OTK.
Update: Axed Ancient Brewmaster for Eerie Statute's for more consitency. Thanks for the suggestion!
I didn't have a second Molten Giant, so I used Edwin VanCleef. He definitely won a few games for me, as Shadowstep and Youthful Brewmaster make him insane, maybe even more so than the Molten Giants.
Great!! very good this deck
No problem! Glad you're having fun with it. :D
I ditched Ancient Watcher for Piloted Shredder because it could actually deal 4 damage with the charge (just prefer a more immediate damage effect). I don't think it's as effective as the watcher in terms of consistency but it was fun to use. Probably the best feeling is killing someone who thinks they have you by spamming emotes, and then take them out with charged molten giant with shadowstep/brewmaster combo. Allows you to make much more interesting plays than the really dull warlock Tavern Brawl deck.
I made a few changes to this deck. 1) I replaced the Preparations with Young Dragonhawks - because that lets you do 18 damage with 3 mana or 20 damage with 4 mana from Cold Blood depending on your draws
2) I swapped out Fan of Knives for Shiv just cause I notice a lot of people trying to flood the board with little'uns and divine shields - one more mana but still draws cards
3) Pit Snake in place of Sap = Hard removal with one less mana, a better option without Preparation in the deck
And 3) I replaced one Deadly Poison with Edwin VanCleef just for the LOLs, he provides another target for Shadowstep, but you might get better mileage out of him keeping Preparation in
VanCleef was the MvP for me this week, contrary to moltens, you don't have to be low, and if you play him together with pit snakes and cut purse, you can pull some really bullshit combos.
Now this is podracing!
I considered this kind of deck as soon as the tavern went online, but mine hadn't this many draw engines (I didn't include Acolyte of Pain or Shiv), and I must say this works wonders.
Also, I must agree with the inclusion of Eerie Statue: It's incredibly strong in this brawl, and I've been able to attack with him sometimes :D
Thanks
try vanish for clearing the board before you combo works nice with prep
HAHAHA I had two molten giants, an empty opponent board, and 11 health on turn 4. Guess what happened next. :)
Super fun and good. Thank you!
I've actually played against the deck a few times and I'm probably about 50/50 against Warlock. Just depends if you get the nut as their late game is most likely better with the card draw.
$ick deck.
Ah. You had a similar idea as mine. My deck is slightly more minion heavy and relies on Ancient Shade as a Shadowstep target. Perhaps our two decks can somehow be combined to make something even more dangerous? The advantage of using Ancient Shade is that you usually fairly reliably get a turn 6 14 damage combo. Now if that fails I think Molten Giant makes for an amazing backup plan. If you're intrigued, do take a look at my deck and feel free to incorporate anything you like : )

I'm gonna try swapping Ancient Brewmasters for Eerie Statues and see how that works.
The deck is solid but it needs less RNG/more protection.
Edit: Fuck the ABs. The Eerie Statue is amazingly helpful. First 3 games I played with ES, I won them all. Lost prior.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Try Ancient Shade. I find its more reliable than Eerie Statue and the games never last long enough for the drawback to matter.
I Like it! Easy quest: 3 victories with rogue
I play an ancient watcher turn 2, and by turn 4 they gave up. So thanks for the easy win lol
No problem! :)
