Whoever plays murlock decks .. i'm not even gonna say it, probably get banned.
Braindead?
That's exactly what pirates and murlocs are for. Easy way for 6 year olds to climb ladder. They even added a new braindead class lol.
Try reaching legend with ANY Murloc deck in Wild. It is pretty dam hard. Way too many removals and you do have to play smart if you want to finish your opponent.
I really don't think pirates and Murlocs are that different from other things the game has to offer.
That being said, the prism/scales paladin decks do get some very easy wins with the combo in place...
I watched two days ago a streamer who hasn’t played since Wispers. It’s just amazing how good aggressive decks are in the very low ranks. At first he tried various stuff and lost almost all the time. After that he made Murloc Paladin, and despite huge misplays, he went 11-0
Its mindblowing how easy aggressive decks achieve victory in these ranks. But I believe any decent curve deck should perform well there. Like others said, HSreplay without the gold function is literally meaningless.
- the vast majority of murloc paladin's success comes at lower ranks, which skews the aggregate data - DH is underplayed at the moment b/c of nerfs - warrior is underplayed at the moment b/c of nerfs - priest is overplayed at the moment b/c of nerfs
Murloc paladin looks better than it is as a result of the above. In particular, when people return to warrior/DH, we'll see that Murloc Paladin isn't much more than a T3-ish deck.
I think we'll see this happen relatively soon b/c of the HCT Apac results.
murloc paladin is a trap...looks like a decent deck if you get on curve.. but in reality those murlocs just get removed and then GG...time to try another deck
i played murloc shaman in wild for lols.. its decent and can get to d10
The expansion launches in 2 weeks, maybe in 3. I honestly don't even care at this point what the best deck in Standard might be for the remaining time.
I'm sure some people are going for a top legend position, but if I just wanted to climb some more for the last 10 days, I would just play whatever is doing alright, and not waste my energy or even dust to worry about the best deck for such a short period of time.
