What do people think of Sludge Belcher in one of these decks when it comes out? I like that it drops a dude, but I worry that he's too expensive.

Actually, I really like it, but in another type of class, like shaman, in conjunction with Ancestral Spirit. However, here it doesn't fit with the theme of this types of deck. Also, Druid has a better 5 drop with taunt.

Edit: With the second wing, I think I will add Loatheb.

Loatheb is just going to get nerfed lol. I think we can all see that coming LONG before it happens (ie Sylvanas). He will be going into probably every single deck I make with Druid. I think the real challenge is to figure out how you are going to clear him once he gets dropped. Obviously minion trade but I think prepping for that is going to take some crafty work.

I agree on that. We will see.

I just realized how excited I am to use Poison Seeds against a Deathlord.

I think his deathrattle is going to be a bigger downside than people are reckoning on, generally. But, he does have great stats, so I'm really not sure where he'll fall on the scale. Stampeding Kodo will probably get a lot of play in whatever the upcoming meta shakes out to be.

Updated the deck in the main post: removed 1x Cairne Bloodhoof, added 1x Loatheb

Quite obvious choice :D

Used it, and it's pretty strong.

You can't leave us hanging like that!  Give us the juicy details. :-)

Loatheb should be pretty op. Im not home yet but as soon as I can play through that wing, Ill add him too!

If you have board control there is almost no way ud lose it the turn you play him. a 5/5 cant be killed by most turn 4/5 plays nor can your opponent play a spell to kill it (except rogue with a 5 mana Backstab haha). Yeti + hero power should do the trick but thats ok too, because he cant play another real threat afterwards.

It totally wracks freeze mages, too! And image you can pair it with a webspinner ugh

I would love, someday, to build a deck that's completely against what Blizzard's design philosophy for the game is. Like, you just play cards like Loatheb, the webspinner, and that one card that makes all creatures cost extra, and you just make it a huge pain for your opponent to do anything on their turn.

Huh. Reading that I realize that I've become a bit of a griefer.

Mana Wraith ...maybe combine with Pint-Sized Summoner and Sap could be a fun troll deck, lol.

Maybe never letting them play anything is the secret to Mill decks! We could add Vanish, King Mukla and Coldlight Oracle.

I like the path you are on.  Vanish would be hilarious when they finally got a few creatures out.  Rogue definitely seems like the best deck to play this "strat" with.  Could make use of shadowstep for multiple Loatheb blocks or the way it is used now with coldlight/mill etc.  With rogues cheap removal spells you could easily kill anything they did manage to play.  Kidnapper going to finally see some play? haha.  Anub'ar Ambusher could probably work as well.

I will be putting this deck together and giving it a shot. How exciting.

Somewhat OT, but I just wrecked a Miracle Rogue by using Loatheb in my Ramp druid.  You could tell he didn't know what to do because he took his whole turn just mousing over his cards.

Ohhh sounds so beautiful.  I can't wait to get home!

I know that the egg/weblord/mark of the wild can be really great but they are too situational and not that great against non aggro decks. they are good but have other better cards to replace them. the deck that i believe i linked(but this is the first time im using this site so i have no clue) is a more standard token druid that isn't as great against aggro, but can still beat aggro consistantly, and it is also great against control, etc. Kolento's deck runs black knight which is great in the druid mirror match but doesn't get much value in the aggro/miracle rogue current meta so i don't really like it. RDU likes to run ragnaros in his but i feel it is too slow in the current meta. So i just went in between and tried out loatheb. it has won me a few games against zoo when they have a 5 mana soulfire, and it destroys a lot of other decks like mage/miracle/and even shaman, etc. If you have any other questions or suggestions about cards i put in my deck let me know and i will be sure to consider your input.

Also even though the deck says Xamples Token I do not take all of the credit to the deck,many other people gave me ideas too.

used token druid with haunted creepers and eggs to get me to 4th round of zotac cup today. Went 2/0 first 3 rounds with it. Finally went out to a lucky shaman player. I hate shaman. But yet they do well in tournaments. not your first choice starter deck but its really good at bating cleanup.
