Update: I updated the list to what I'm currently playing, this is subject to change, this is why my card explainations and matchups will not change right now but later today!
Hello there friends,
Today I piloted this deck to legend with a 79% winrate, I went 33-9 throughout the day and had a blast playing vs all the greedy aggro decks and other jade druids.
This deck is different from the lot because it runs mark of the lotus. It is a really nice tech vs the heavy aggro meta we face today and it also gives you an edge in mirror matchups if you play it out well. It can come as a surprise extra dmg for lethal or just to make a swing turn when behind.
Mulligans per matchup
Druid: Wild Growth, Wrath, Jade Blossom, Nourish, Spreading Plague.
(If you are sure this is gonna be a jade druid keep only the ramp cards and Ultimate Infestation
Hunter: Wild Growth, Wrath, Jade Blossom, Mire Keeper, Spreading Plague.
Mage: Wild Growth, Jade Blossom, Nourish, Ultimate Infestation
(Rush this matchup if it is a quest mage as you are gonna probably lose it if you don't)
Paladin: Wild Growth, Wrath, Jade Blossom, Mire Keeper, Spreading Plague.
Rogue: Wild Growth, Wrath, Jade Blossom, Mire Keeper, Ultimate Infestation.
(Spellbreaker can be really good here because your opponent might go for the super quick Edwin VanCleef as he is probably gonna lose if he gives you the time)
Warlock: Wild Growth, Jade Blossom, Nourish, Ultimate Infestation
Priest: Wild Growth, Jade Blossom, Nourish, Ultimate Infestation
Warrior: Wild Growth, Wrath, Jade Blossom, Mire Keeper, Spreading Plague.
Shaman: Wild Growth, Wrath, Jade Blossom, Mire Keeper Nourish.
(A good keep here can be swipe as your opponent is most likely and evolve druid that you can shut down easily with one good Swipe)
It should be noted that keeping Spreading Plague in an aggro matchup requires you to be able to ramp in to it, as you can not just play it at your regular turn 5 because it will be often too late then.
UPDATE!!!
Hit top 500 Legend today with the exact same deck!
I livestream some times on twitch as well, follow me here: www.twitch.tv/deadlykittennnz
Getting to legend on this deck in the current meta isn't possible. Just went 1-6 with this at Rank 15. Warlocks own this deck with either Skulking Geist or Zoo. It's also horrible in mirror. Throw in the fact that it does 55% against everything else... just not worth it to play.
Hi there!
I actually got 49% WR... I started the game this summer so I don't got many cards..
I replaced DK by a 2nd Spellbreaker & Aya Blackpaw by Tar Creeper
I just saw I can use Medivh instead of Malfurion...
Any more tips? ^^ Like, should I buy Aya next or Malfurion?
Solid deck, I swapped out the spell breaker with the LK, went from 20-5 in 3 hours with a 37-8 record. Strangely aggro gave me no problems, most of my losses were against mages.
This deck doesn't run mark of the lotus....
Really?
Im currently on rank 3. This deck is still quite viable and good. 100% WR vs. Keleseth Rogue and Midrange Hunter for now.
10W vs 2 Hunters & 3 Aggro Rogues (SP, Wrath and Doomsayer is the key against these guys. If u have Primordial Drake before turn 8 is GG); 2 Exodia Mage, 3 Razakus Priest (Ultimate infestation, ramp in mulligan and go face = EZ)
2L vs Pirate Warrior and Zoolock (they're very fast, Im dead before the turn 6)
my substitutions (I don't have DK):
- Malfurion the Pestilent.
+ 1 Mire keeper.
I think two mire keeper are cores in this deck since nerf. They help ramp faster and by itself the card is very good.
The deck list added to the site doesn't seem to have Mark of The Lotus :P
Currently rank 3 with a 66% winrate, but my issue is, I almost always lose to aggro (mainly keleseth rogue). Any card substitutions to improve that weakness? Love the deck btw. +1
Also zoo lock, just so many mobs, otherwise I enjoy this deck
Jade druid is strong? Who knew!
When I made a jade druid right after KFT people downvoted like crazy saying it was nothing original .
Well , this deck is an exact copy of what Zalae explained in his youtube video .
EDIT: Now something constructive :
I played jade druid whole day in top legend and I think it's best to replace innervate with mire keeper . SP is still op and deserves a spot . As for other techs I use power of the wild instead of MC . I find it better in many cases .

there you go .
this deck is still amazing with post nerf: 17W-4L. The innervate is okay, but I'll probably change it in the future
my substitutions (I dont have dk):
- Malfurion the Pestilent.
- 1 swipe
+ 1 Primordial drake (against aggro is very good)
+ 1 Doomsayer
THANK YOU! <3
Awesome deck, is there going to be any replacement to Innervate or will you keep them
I just made this deck today and I threw in a crypt lord and mire keeper, I also put doomsayers in for mark of the lotus as there's not much early game to benefit from it and there's tons of aggro to deal with right now
went 15-3 from rank 9 to 5, will try to hit legend (replaced malfurion with doomsayer)
currently have an 100% win rate! 1-0!
very impressed I'll hit rank 20 in no time!!!
Hit legend with this deck today. Thanks!
70%, 44 wins - 19 losses.
