Recent replacement:
- Acolyte of Pain, + Harrison Jones. Explanation: Acolyte is a strong anti agro card but in control matches seems to shine less. Meta seems to include allot of weapons, so Harison should be a better replacement.
Justicar Trueheart for The Black Knight Explanation: This card has enough survival cards, Justicar is a tech choice against aggressive decks, but if you're facing fewer aggressive decks than control/midtange, then TBK is a better tech choice, and I decided to make this change to the deck because I think it's better against the current meta.
Possible replacements:
Malkorok for Sylvanas Windrunner Explanation: I personally prefer Malkorok over sylvanas in this deck, because the weapon he gives can provide as excellent board control card on the turn he is played or burst damage if your opponent has little life. Sylvanas is an absolutely viable replacement, although I think she fits the deck a bit less well, but she's a very good replacement if you prefer her!
Justicar Trueheart for The Black Knight or Sylvanas Windrunner Explanation: Justicar is a better tech choice if you're facing against fast decks more than against slower decks, but if otherwise, then the TBK or Sylvanas would be a better choice.
If any of you want to try this deck's fatigue variation, press here.
Thank you everyone for your support! I'm glad this deck helped you climb the ladder during these uncertain times and I hope you all have fun with it!
Friendly Advice: Malkorok can make you lose the game just by playing it so stop using this awful card unless they remove Cursed Blade from the game.
It can also give you a second Gorehowl, a Hammer of Twilight, a Doomhammer, a Gladiator's Longbow, an Arcanite Reaper, a Truesilver Champion, and an Assassin's Blade. But yeah lets not play it for a 5% chance to get a bad weapon despite the 40% chance to get a great one. Then again, no one with that avatar you're using has ever been good at thinking so I wouldn't expect you to understand.
You're getting insane tempo + value from one card, it's a battle cry for crying out loud.. 7 mana 6/5 with a weapon, you are potentially getting 14+ mana with one card.
Malkorok just gave me cursed blade in 3 in a row games what a beatiful legendary!
I removed Harrison, Malkorok for another Brawl and Doomcaller. More testing to be done :D
After more testing decided Doomcaller just cost to much mana and replacing with either Sylvanas or Crazed Worshipper.
Chose to add Sylvanas.
Replace Sylvanas with Crazed Worshipper if facing lots of aggro or Harrison Jones if vs lots of weapons.
Also added Acolyte of Pain and removed a cruel taskmaster.
Decks feels balanced now with Acolyte helping vs aggro and Sylvanas vs everything besides aggro :D
Is swamp ooze ok instead of Harrison if I'm facing a lot of shaman? Don't own Harrison
Needs more cards that buff c'thun.. like really? 5 only? ive had few games where i just didnt get value from twins or shield due to not being able to buff c'thun to 10 attack..
You dont need to go overkill with it. I see a lot of Fandral decks with literally all card "choose one", and a lot f C'thun decks with tons of Cthun buffs. You better be with a ballanced deck because no matter what, when C'thun hits the table it might not end the game but it will put you in the absolute advantage, and thats what control is all about.
I know I need to craft it, but I don't have Gorehowl atm. What would be the best replacement? I'm thinking second brawl, but I want to know what you guys think.
Arcanite Reaper.
Does the same thing.
BronzeBeard and Revenge Replacements???
Revenge: Whirlwind
Brann: Another C'thun buffer!
Hi Seagull,
Love the deck so far. I didn't have Justicar Trueheart, and needed to replace her with something. I started with Sylvanas, but I swapped to Harrison Jones. I run into a lot of players with weapons, and the removal of a weapon and the card draw is an astronomical game swing.
I'll leave my results with the change after a bunch of matches.
Thank you.
