[MSG] RyujinNL Handlock 

Hello my name is RyujinNL and I'm a Hearthstone Streamer, well most of the time I stream Hearthstone or any other game that I like. I decided to make this deck because I wanted to play Handlock agian, you can say why not play Renolock? well I don't have Reno Jackson anymore and it rotates out of standard pretty soon. Handlock as of now is a pretty strong deck in the current meta, yes Renolock might be a little bit better but you can also say it's more inconsistent. And I just like the concept of getting out big minions early, the game plan is to get out your Mountain Giant at turn 4, to do that if you go First you tap on turn 2 and tap on turn 3 and play your Giant on turn 4, if you go Second you need to play something in between otherwise you will overdraw so tap on turn 2 and then play something on turn 3, if you don't get your Mountain Giant you can also play your Twilight Drake it's really good to give them Taunt with Sunfury Protector or Defender of Argus and after that you can even use Faceless Shambler to copy one of them for a even stronger board presence. Also don't get scary if your Health pool is starting to get low, you can get allot of health back with Brann Bronzebeard and Earthen Ring Farseer Combo, It is also just a good idea to use Earthen to heal your Giants or Drake's. If you need to clear the board there are allot of good AOE board clears in the deck like Hellfire,Shadowflame and Abyssal Enforcer. One funny Combo you can do is Mistress of MixturesPower OverwhelmingShadowflame you get a 6 Damage clear and you heal for 4 and that for 6 mana. For one card removal you use of course Siphon Soul and Blastcrystal Potion, one thing I forgot to mention is if you don't get Mountain Giant or Twilight Drake you can always play your Ancient Watcher with Sunfury Protector or Defender of Argus to give it Taunt. that would be it for the guide, I will try to make a more detailed Guide if this post get popular enough.

[Replacements]

I din't put Lord Jaraxxus into the deck because I don't have that card yet, if you want to have that card for more healing just take out Ragnaros the Firelord.

Emperor Thaurissan is also a really good card to discount your hand, it can be really handy sometimes, to replace it just take out the Abyssal Enforcer.

I put in Acidic Swamp Ooze because it is really good tech card against any class that has weapons a specially Warrior, but if you don't like it or you just don't get match up against classes with weapons you can always try a second Ancient Watcher.

These are just my preferences feel free to experience with the cards and put in whatever you like.

I hope you will appreciate the time and effort I put into making this guide and deck I hope you like this post and upvote the deck.

 

[Update] (25/01/2017)
