I'm THEORY, an usual legend player on NA sever. This is the decklist that I used to hit rank 2 legend.
It is destroying all the popular malygos druid, control warrior, freezemage and malygos rogue on the ladder atm (>75% win rate), and also have strong match up again the hunter, especially the popular secret hunter(70% win rate). Shaman is used to be a bad matchup, but with the addition of Deathwing, i manage to have an 60% win rate which is amazing.
Very beastly deck for the meta atm.
Also a general tip is that if you could use innervate early, go for it, don't save the innervate. This deck doesn't have lots of drawing power, so the longer the match, the lesser the impact of innervate on the tempo of the match.
About mulligan plan, generally keep 1 drops, 2 drops and innervate. If you have innervate on hand, you also keep 3 drops, especially the druid of the flame.
However, against shaman, i often mulligan hard for thing that could saved me from totem golem. Innervate early is so important in this match up.
Edit 27/10: I am so happy that so many people having huge success with my deck. I waited for the whole month to see, and I can confirm that this deck work great for the meta for everyone with different skill level. I received a message yesterday from Skelag:
"Thanks for sharing the deck. I played a lot with it and i hit legend for the first time! :)
Went from rank 14 to 5 in 74 games (win 50, lost 24 didnt count the wr) and from 5 to legend in 90 games with 58 wins and 32 losses (65% wr). I saw somewhere that creator of some deck wrote list of people that hit legend for the first time with his deck, so if you want you can create similar list :) thanks one more time"
So i will make the list:
Hitting legend for the 1st time with the deck:
Skelag
leeroy - emperor thurissan - thalnos - or maybe another savage roar or another spell that deals damage.
2 azure drakes. Cut a raptor as well.
i got to legend with this deck and shamans are easy af if you know how to play them, i got around the same win rate vs them ~60%
Any replacement for the curator??
Developing the body and just about guaranteeing you draw Deathwing makes it pretty key.. My only thought would be Nourish to supplement the card draw, but that just seems so much weaker.. in my very unqualified opinion.
How is the matchup versus freeze mage control mage and warrior? Those are the other matchups I'm running into and I haven't played this deck too much yet. I'm pretty strongly against using Darnassus Aspirant since every single deck right now has a 2 mana option to remove it. What would you add in if you cut one of them? Raven idol maybe? Azure drake? Barnes? I guess It is probably a good idea to just run both since people aren't expecting them right now so they might mulligan incorrectly.
I'm finally happy to have a viable deck to run my gold deathwing in :D
My most epic Deathwing save yet xD

Love the deck, and almost first time legend with it! 3 wins to go!
Congratz mate! I am so close, but i seem to struggle a lot vs the Ctun warrior deck.
Any tips on how to beat it? I get close every time, but then they armor up heavily or put 2 or even 3 Twin emperors on the board...

dont play deathwing until they put their emperor . they wont expect it and will over commit with brann + 3 emperor, then you put deathwing and you pretty muc win
Should I craft Rag or Deathwing?
Thanks! Therefore which is the best replacement for Deathwing?
Edit: So far I have been using Onyxia and Knight of the Wild in replacement of Deathwing and Rag respectively, and it works pretty well.
Anyway, my sincerest congratulation THEORY! This deck is something out of this world! Just WOW!
I really appreciate your comment. Thank you:)
The mirror match ups with this deck are brutal xD
Any replacement for Deathwing?
Not that they have the same function, I've been using Wildwalker instead since I dont have Deathwing. A list I was running prior used 2x Wildwalkers instead of Deathwing/Curator.
Nozdormu. Your opponent won't see it coming.
I'd been struggling to break free from the rank 12-11 rut. With this deck I've gone 7-1. Thanks!
Check out slithis swarmer. It's actually pretty damn good.
Ok guys....i am 7th times legend now and what can i say about this deck......THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST DECKS I EVER PLAYED!!!! i am legend now from rang 3 to legend with 78% win rate with this deck and it's 63.64% win rate against the shamans!!! actually i played 23 games from rang 3+ to legend and i lost 1 game to hunter and 4 games to shaman (played 11 games against the shamans overall). This deck is really playable in current meta. This deck have all what you need so you don;t need any changes...just copy and play. shadowsongs99 your deck is really great...it's fun...interesting and works nice in current meta with all those stupid shamans. Good luck for you and thanks for my 7th legend after 1 year break...that was really fun and interesting!
