Last month I hit legend from rank 3 with only 2 losses with this deck .It's a really underrated option for the format.
Here are the stats for this month (rank 11 => legend):
As you can see it's a real aggro shaman crusher. So If you face many aggro shaman then go with this with ease instead of CW, because it doesn't auto lose against other match ups. Still don't understand how it does so well against Jade Druid. Only Advice that I can give (also against Jade Shaman): wait for the Golem that comes AFTER Aya for playing Deathwing. If you can maintain tempo every turn, than this play gives you a mostly guaranteed win.
Blood to Ichor gives a better option against 4 health minions like Totem Golem in early game without giving up field presence.
any replacements for deathwing???
You can try any of the high-mana legendary dragons, but it's hard to top a board clear + 12/12 game ending minion dropping
if i dont have the Black Rock cards
what can i do ??
play other decks.
Or fill your wallet
rude...
He was actually right. I have tried playing dragon decks without BRM, and it's way worse.
Hey thanks for the share! I really like the Deathwing adds with these types of dragon warrior decks because usually the opponent just runs out of answers for things and has to use a lot of early to midgame hard removal so that when the Deathwing comes it's pretty game changing XD ! Solid pirate/removal early game in to relatively beefy midgame into just game ending late game cards hahaha! Really nice and great job on the climb yoh!
Wonder why i've faced so much dragon warrior while climbing today. Go to Hearthpwn and sure enough, this is on the front page.
Played this deck all day long. It's _very_ unstable, too much RNG dependant and the early curve can get worse. Sometimes it can be played strong, but not enough to keep any decent win rate over 50%. Down from rank 13 to 17 with it! Maybe it can work from rank 10 to up.
Perhaps you're playing it incorrectly. I'm playing a very similar list and made it to rank 5 with around a 70% WR.
Maybe _your deck_ is a kind of "adaptations-to-dragon-warrior" with Slam, Brawl, and Revenge, among other reactive cards.
I am running a version that is nearly identical to this one, except it has the following changes:
-1 Grommash Hellscream
-1 Blood To Ichor
+1 Ragnaros the Firelord
+1 Execute
I'm not super keen on the execute, but I have found it to be useful in a few games.
I don't have the same sample size as the OP, but this deck is highly underrated. I ran over 90% win rate in around 15 games. I never have such a win rate for more than 10 games, even though I do make it to rank 5 nearly every season. The best part is how much it crushes Shaman of all variety.
Why do you take your best counter to other pirates out?
Ichor their Buccaneer+coin+first mate means that you clear their board, get a weapon and a 2/2
This deck already beats Pirates, but I'd swap Grommash for Ragnaros instead.
That wasn't an answer to my question. I explained you WHY you play that card in the current meta (to take control back when you go second against other patches/buccaneer combos).
Rag only works on an empty board OR will fire on a minion and not go face (chances of that are 50% or worse if the board isn't empty).
Your whole game plan is "to go face" and not to fight for a board like midrage deck. If needed you have Deathwing for that...
Your comment just shows that the deck itself is an autopilot-deck for people that don't understand the game, because you don't even understand your own netdecked deck. The downvotes of others prof this as well, because people can win on turn 4 or 5, so your "late game plan" is pointless as well.
Ichor can also be used to buff Frothing Berserker or trade if needed (and you STILL get a 2/2 body)
I've been having a bit of trouble with Renolocks on EU but other than that this deck has made me actually enjoy climbing ladder again and crushing agro shaman is SOOOOOOOO satisfying
How is Patches necessary in this deck with only 2 Pirate Hooks? Just wanted to know if I can replace him with a card that'll provide more Dragon synergy. I have Patches thought and I always enjoy his grand entrance. Lol
I think Patches is just to hold off their Patches so you could build up the mid-game power spike with Dragons.
The Fierce Monkey and Twilight Guardian are so good against other aggro decks.
I played Faerie Dragon and it works fine as well.
Hey,
I can share your posted results so far after 7 games with the deck. Despite getting ripped by a Miracle Rogue I was always in "charge" of my opponents. You also have a negative score against Miracle, so would you say that`s a bad matchup in general? The sample size is, in comparison to e.g. Aggro Shaman, obvious way smaller, so I am curious what you say.
