The Lich King gives you a free Hemet, Jungle Hunter effect on minions, so you can use it to build a small and focused deck. Took me about 4 tries, but worth it for the amount of dust needed.
The actual cards that will be played are below:
2x Innervate
2x Jade Idol
2x Wrath
2x Jade Blossom
2x Jade Spirit
2x Nourish
2x Gadgetzan Auctioneer
2x Moonglade Portal
This is a budget copy of the deck (needs only 1040 dust) - so you can feel free to add Fandral Staghelm and Aya Blackpaw if you have them.
Notes:
- Never play a Jade Golem from your Jade Idol on the first turn, as he'll destroy it right away.
- Mulligan for: Jade Spirit, Jade Blossom, Jade Idol
- Gadgetzan Auctioneer is usually best played during the Frostmourne phase with enough minions to distract the Lich King, and then once after during the Remorseless Winter phase.
- Ideally, you will be hitting your 5th Jade Golem right before Frostmourne comes out on Turn 7, both for trading early game and also to protect your Gadgetzan Auctioneer for an extra turn. The Lich King prefers use his weapon on 5-health minions over 4-health ones, but will hit a 4-health over a 6-health.
Amazing this works! Got it 2nd try after understanding the cards better. Thank you so much. I managed to win 2nd try with only 1 jade spirit and 1 auctioneer. Substituted with taunt+ ssummon jade golem.
Got it on first try. Mulligan for Jade Idol , don't use Auctioneer untill he uses his frostmourne after that things will just work out if u know how jade works.
** UPDATE, 41st try I finally got there ** lol
My RNG against the LICH KING has to be the worst.
So far I'm at least 0-40 before I win w/ ANY class. And I've only won WAR & Priest so far. I believe this deck can do it, but you HAVE to get the right cards early, like every class...lol.
But honestly, this EXPAN is amazing. I'm learning all new ideas on how to play the game, my standard has increased.
first try, insane deck.. just as jade druid always was
Works well except low drops drawn should be somehow useful - put in Runic Egg at least. And other eggs and deathrattle draws for potential Innervate plays:

Druid is a nice break after struggling with hunter and paladin aggro decks
That's a fair point. I usually save my Innervates for early game Jade Blossom and Jade Spirit plays, but I don't see why you can't pull out a Runic Egg before he blows all the creatures up.
I won w/ this deck, nice touch.
You HAVE to almost Innervate into an egg turn 1, it's the ONLY times I ever got close enough.
I won it with Innervate > Devilsaur Egg > Jade Idol ... turn 1. haha. He didn't have any kill spells early enough and ZERO taunt creatures, and the 4/4 kept the board clean as hell. Got him to 11 on turn 7, got RNG lucky into 3 jade idols and SUPER lucky into a random 6 drop 3/8 Taunt.
That's how lucky I had to get to win this one, haha.
41st try :P
Because of that pure luck, I have a theory that you're almost guaranteed victory w/ in the 30-40's almost every time. Because I've noticed my 3 wins, they were because he had lack of taunt and also lack of removal spells....all with being CONSISTENT every game otherwise. Super weird.
Amazing! After trying every other budget option finally got this!
Thanks man!
wtf he has a card that kills you. Is this a troll?
Which card are you referring to?
If you mean Gadgetzan Auctioneer, you just need to remember to cycle your Jade Idols by constantly shuffling 3 Jade Idols right before you hit your last card. That way, fatigue will never kill you.
PS I wasn't aware that the LK has a different card for each hero. I had played lock, so I assumed all the duplicates in this deck would almost ohko. This deck worked first try for me.
Worked 2nd time, I'm not very used to jade druid. GREAT CHEAP DECK.
Great deck, easy first try.
ty first try
Awesome Deck, 2nd try.
Had to go up to 18 because of annoying taunts
