1.Intro
Hey Guys, my name is Guukboii and I’m a high legend player Hearthstone player from Belgium. I play for team Sector One (www.sectorone.eu) and regularly compete in (offline/online) tournaments. Besides competing I also enjoy tinkering around with decks I think could be great in the current Meta so I made a “Beast Druid” and pushed it all the way to Top 20 Legend.

3. General Strategy
If you are interested in my card choices and how to play this deck in depth take a lookbelow, where you'll find an in depth strategy and mulligan guide.
I've written a basic "how to play", what your mindset / playstyle should be like for those who just want to pick up the deck and start playing:
- A lot of people have been asking me how to play this deck and if it's a facedeck or a control deck. So i'll try to clear that up.
- It is obviously not a full-on control deck that wants to go into the late game because it's not greedy enough for that and it lacks the card draw.
- What you want to do with this deck is take early control over the board with Druid of the Saber, Darnassus Aspirant and Living Roots.
Against Tempo decks, such as Zoo or Shaman, you want to flood the board and just get as much pressure as you can. Make trades that have good value but don’t trade too much, just put him in a defensive position where he is forced to start trading and you can just push face to eventually finish him off with Savage Roar [/card]or [card]Leeroy Jenkins
Control decks are somewhat harder to play against. You basically want to pressure them too but you don’t want to overextend into board clears. Try to have 2-3 strong minions on the board to push enough face damage every turn. But the main goal is to surprise them with a Savage Roar combo. Druid of the Claw should almost never be played in taunt mode. Either charge it when you think it will survive a turn or keep it to do it in 1 turn with Savage Roar Same goes with Druid of the Saber, if you get it later into the game. Again, make value trades but don’t trade too much because against control they’ll eventually stabilize and if you didn’t push enough damage by then you’ll probably lose.
If you have any questions regarding the deck, feel free to comment below!

I truly don't understand what decks this beats...
Absolutely nothing on EU, since you lose to every aoe in the game.
Guukboii, what do you mean this deck isn't "greedy" enough? Also, I need a good replacement for [cardLeeroy Jenkins[/card]. I don't have Fandral Staghelm. Help?
Ohh, greedy like the literal value of the card. Gotcha.
Emm, I don't have Harrison Jones. I'm not having a problem with weapons specifically, but I could go for a Sylvanas Windrunner or Rag. I would say Cairne Bloodhoof, but I don't have him. What do you think? Very good deck btw. I would definitely replace Sir Finley Mrrgglton; he does come in the clutch here and there, but about 20% of the time, he gives the game another shot, another 20% of the time, he comes in handy but I'm still getting great results with my Druid Hero Power, the other 60% of the time he's just nice to have or not really necessary. Why'd you put him in exactly?
Oh yeah, for now I'm using Reckless Rocketeer to replace the Leeroy Jenkins, and it actually seems to work. So I don't know, might not change that.
Nice deck, enjoying it! One thing though, a card for consideration, how about Mukkla Tyrant of the Vale. He's a beast and more importantly he feeds you spells with which you can power your Violet Teachers. Just a thought.
crappy deck, atleast in EU
Nice deck man, I put in fandral instead of finley cause im poor and having lots of fun beating streamers and stuff with this sexy deck with LEEERRRROYY!
My biggest issue with this deck is card draw.. I think this is a really fun deck but dear god I can't count how many games I've run out of steam on turn 7-10 with this. I get a great opener, take them down to low health, and then my hand sits there empty while they fill up the board. Or with the massive amount of reno locks/mages out there right now at my rank, I get them down to 2 hp and they reno and fill the board while I'm sitting there with 1 minion on board and 1 card in my hand over and over and over.
Currently at rank 4 with this deck. And the real problem for me is Miracle Rogue - I'm 0-4 against it. With shamans it is clear - sometimes you win, sometimes lose. But how to counter Rogue ?
Really nice beast deck, a little bit more aggro then what you would think off beast druid, but very decent on the ladder.
I'm pretty sure i got the topdecks on my side, but who cares if you win XD... Here is a little video I made showcasing the deck
Hope you enjoy:D
i would play one less roar and one more control card maybe?
I made an account on this website just so I could comment on this deck. This deck is the shit, it single handedly got me to my first legend ranking and I started using this deck back when I was in rank 9. I got a 72% win rate all the way to legend, which I hit today and it was one of the greatest moments in my hearthstone career. I've been constantly getting rank 3 for a while and could never make that final push, so I just wanted to thank Guukboii for making and sharing this deck cuz it meant a lot to me.
Hey everyone!
Made some changes. I swapped out - 1x Sir Finley Mrrgglton for +1x Fandral Staghelm
Thinking about swaping x1 Violet Teacher. What will be the best change for it? Sir Finley Mrrgglton worth it?
I saw trump playing with this list more or less it's clear that the deck lacks consistancy and win condition, maybe the answer is savage roar he did not run..
Btw what's findleys role here? The druid hero power is quite good.
Went from rank 8 to rank 5 in one and a half our. It works there is no doubt of that.
Imo lifetap is the best heropower you can get wirg Finley, the value of carddraw is really big since you have a lot of cheap cards in your deck, really fits my tempo.
i put a acid swamp ooze and goes very well, u destroy the doomhammer and gg, try it,
hf to get any board control with this, not against mage not shaman i dont even mention zoo locks...
why Sir Finley?
