This is the current decklist I am running (below), just want some feedback with it. After having a losing streak back to rank 20 for using Midrange Patron Warrior and Freeze Mage (full of Agro decks at ranks 17...), I've managed to winstreak my way back up to 14.
Too many legendaries for my liking, they are too slow for current meta. Sylvanas, Ragnaros, Emperor... Better to replace them with early game cards like zombie chow, darkbomb. I run traditional handlock, and the only legendary apart from jaraxxus i run is loatheb. All other legendary cards are pretty useless against aggro and handlock is only weak to aggro decks.

thank you, I'll probably run Darkbomb instead of Ragnaros the Firelord. Wouldn't Gadgetzan Jouster be a good substitute for Zombie Chow as you can win jousts due to your higher curve (vs. Aggro)? Well, I have Chow but I've been wondering if Gadgetzan Jouster can be used as a substitute
I'd totally keep the Sylvanas and also put in the Siphon Soul; I think that 2ble Mortal Coil is unnecessary and weak in the current meta, one is enough (I don't even run Mortal Coil any more, I prefer stuff like Dark Bomb or Explosive Sheep or Zombie Chow, basically anything that can keep aggro under check in the early game).
Thanks, though I'll probably include 1 coil to be able to ping the sheep if necessary.

Gadgetzan Jouster is not a guaranteed 2/3. You still have your watchers, owls, sunfuries that can screw it up, however its really decent against face hunter. Chows heal doesnt really matter, most of the time he wont heal your opponent at all, besides its decent to use it to trigger mirror entities, if you need a heal.
Another card you can consider is Earthen Ring Farseer. A really great card, unfortunately it doesnt seem to appear a lot in handlock decks these days. I sometimes cant decide what is actually better for handlock zombie or farseer.

Question is, should I replace Sylvanas Windrunner for Siphon Soul or another copy of Big Game Hunter. This at least allows me a better chance to counter either Fel Reaver or Mysterious Challenger. Thanks!
