Hey guys. Was wondering what people think of continuing to run the Leeroy Jenkins + Power Overwhelming + Faceless Manipulator combo in Renolock in this meta. I've been testing the combo and I'm not sure what to think of it. I've found that against the dominant forces of the meta, drawing combo pieces is generally too much of a bad thing to rely on this combo for victory.
Decks I face consistently are: Pirate Warrior, Pirate Rogue, Jade Druid, Jade Rogue, Jade Shaman, Dragon Priest, and Renolock.
I'm pretty sure I'd rather the combo pieces be things like Sunfury Protector or Faceless Shambler, which I'm currently not running. What do you guys think?
Yes, since the combo relies on getting a tick of Emperor (which can be your last card) it´s kind of useless in this fast meta. (vs face warrior you are pretty much dead at turn 5-6)

I think that that combo is very good in putting down Jade Decks, especially in games that are close having the option to burst them down before the golems become a problem is really good. If you face a lot of druids it is better than not running the combo. Sometimes a burst of 10 might be enough and that only requires 10 mana. I think it can be very effective against Dragon Priest and the mirror. As far as Pirate Warrior defensive tools are much more necessary than this combo, but in my list I already run Sunfury Protector and Defender of Argus.
Meh, it's good against controllish decks, right? But personally, I like Lord Jaraxxus better vs the slow decks, and it's better versus pirate warrior since it's only one card (leeroy + faceless are both useless aswell.
