Just piloted this list to rank 1 legend on NA. I encountered a lot of rogue and zoo with some pirate warrior here and there. This list does great against all of that.
Vs Rogue
Keep the quest, you want to look for dirty rat to disrupt their quest plans mainly. Remove all the creatures that they are trying to combo/quest with.
Vs Warlock
Mulligan the quest, you will never complete it by the time you win anyways. I would look for war axe and aoe (whirlwind and ghoul) and tar creeper. Just clear the board when you can via brawl and sleep with the fishes and it should be an easy game.
Vs Warrior
This was a bit trickier. If it's a warrior you are playing for the first time I would keep the quest just in case its a mirror match. If you know they are pirate warrior then mull it. Look for early anti aggro tools: war axe, ghoul or ww, tar creeper and sleep with the fishes if you have an aoe already otherwise dont keep it. I think we all know their gameplan by now. Kill their pirates to stop their upgrades. I originally had oozes instead of sleep with the fishes, it was okay but dead in too many other matchups. I found that removing their creatures was much more beneficial even if they had an upgraded weapon because I was able to just throw out taunts to eat the charges up until they ran out of steam. It's a close matchup and many games I would stabilize under 10 life.
Vs Shaman
Keep the quest, shaman is pretty slow and you pretty much play like you do against zoo but slower. Clear the board efficiently and eventually they run out of steam and thats about the time you complete the quest as well.
Vs Mage
I only encountered the infinite fireball combo mage. Keep the quest and look for dirty rat to destroy their combo.
Vs Hunter
This was actually the hardest matchup but I did not encounter any in legend. I would mull the quest because its very important to remove all the weenies they are dropping. Stampeding Kodo destroys this deck. Also if they adapt a token and get poisonous its pretty bad. That's what happens if they high roll you but most of the time youll be okay. You play similarly as the rogue matchup.
I didnt see any druids or paladins except for 1 jade druid who got destroyed by fireballs.
same here. just had trouble with a couple of quest rogues. the dirty rat play mentioned is key, helped me disrupt the return to hand plays
Killingyour opponent's minions is key because your opponent can bounce them back to complete their quest. Don't wait for them to kill your taunt minions. Actively kill their cheap minions, and chip them down. Thats how I do it at least.
Nice guide for the priest matchup. Kappa.
What about Stonehill Defender ? I think this card could be good here.
I have replaced the two Acolyte of Pain by two Stonehill Defender.
It helps both against aggro (for the two taunt minions and better stats) and against control (for the quest, and avoid milling yourself). And Discover is a very good mechanic, which allow flexibility, as each one knows.
Seems very good to me, at rank 5.
the draw is just too good in my opinion
I popped the man the meme the legend King Mosh into this deck and the results are beautiful.
I played someone who played him too. Until I memed him with Dirty Rat.
Oh yeah that's happened to me before. Honestly, the good outweighs the bad so far with this card, at least for me.
I'd rather have Mosh get hit by Dirty Rat than my primordial drake or Alexstrasza. ;)
I put King Mosh in for the meme too. But then after 3 days struggling at rank 12, the meme card got me to rank 7 in one afternoon. LUL =))))))))
I know that guy is a god! Unfortunately I'm still at 11 :(
You can remove 1 Acolyte. I don't even play Acolyte in my deck. I'm rank 5 now, the deck worked pretty well
Dont get it why u would mulli the quest ?
may be good but... your hero power deals 8 damage, that will probably be a pretty good win condition against control
I play this deck so badly. I am at rank 12 and constantly get rekt by Silence Priest and Hunter with this deck .... Maybe I should switch back to playing Aggro decks to get my rank 5 back :(
Just raped silence priest ))
Yeah probably I'm just bad. Not the deck's fault
I played against this deck in wild and found that it's horribly weak to mill rogue
That's why it's a standard deck my friend
