I have a rather mild collection, but I managed to win on the first try with, obviously, an aggro deck. I find two Ironbeak Owls nigh necessary in this brawl to deal with problematic minions (Sylvanas Windrunner, Sludge Belcher, etc). I find N'Zoth unnecessary and clogging because most games are over by turn 10. Freezing Trap is good, Barnes might be good too. Forlorn Stalker is good. I was even using Twilight Summoner in my deck.
So, while constructing my deck, my eyes laid attention to Moat Lurker. Would it perhaps be worthwhile to use Moat Loarker on your own deathrattle minions? Or too slow?

it might be too slow, i also ran a mega silence pack
2x Owls, 2x Spellbreakers aand 2x sap, the hunter only got one deathrattle off (shaky zipgunner), but he was at 2hp when it finally happened.
Ran Reincarnate Shaman with Earth Shock, Devolve, and Hex. Won the games I needed for my daily quest pretty easily but never got to play Kel'Thuzad so I'll likely come back to this brawl for the infinite deathrattle/KT dream.
Freeze mage is AWESOME. Twice as much draw from deathrattle minions is getting to your combo twice as quickly. It is so satisfying to have full board of powerful deathrattle minions in front of you only to burn and freeze their faces off XD
The only deathrattle minions in my deck are Loot Hoarder, Bloodmage Thalnos, Mad Scientist and Polluted Hoarder. I play mirror entity and potion of polymorph in addition to the normal secrets to get extra value from the mad scientists.
I beat a hunter who had the legend card backs using jade rogue. I've never gone above rank 20.
To be fair rouge has some really nice deathrattles, that's one the reasons I use rogue at first. If you are wondering the other is that I have a rogue win quest, which is very nice to have for this brawl.
Though that said I did play against a mage who created a anti-deathrattle deck and to be fair they did a very good job of countering my deck.

My Entry for this week's Card Design Competition - Season 8.16:
Just went 8-0 with freeze mage. Runic Egg, Arcane Intellect, Thalnos, Loot hoarder and Mad Scientist (2x Ice Block, 2x Ice Barrier). Deny their deathrattles with killing your own minions and freeze the hell out of that board. Seems to be quite a good deck in this brawl.
I had a game where a warlock played Dreadsteed. I stole one, then he made it to where my entire board was Dreadsteeds. So I made HIS entire board dreadsteed.
i was initially tempted to try my first attempt this week with hunter but though... heck, i love priest. got my win on first attempt against... hunter.
* museum curator for more death rattles. * unstable ghoul for early board clears -- 2 damage. * dark cultist for early board presense * piloted shredded -- everyone loves this * feugen and stalagg <-- a must. you'll see shortly * moat lurker <-- this is epic. you kill your own minion to get deathrattle. then you get to summon it back. twice. i got two Thaddius from just the battlecry * sylvanas too... :)
full deck list shortly... but the rest of my hand is removal/ entomb to steal the opponent minions.
can even add silence. i wonder if silence / mass dispel will work.
Well, it had to happen sometime. After a series of F2P weeks, we have another big money brawl. You will likely need a significant collection of cards to compete. Deck design is very fickly, fickle, and finicky with so many competing strategies. Twice the tempo gained means twice the tempo lost on a counter.
- Feign Death is a brute, especially with Twilight Summoner. (and yeah, it goes twice) - Best pack some silence for this one, certain deathrattles are simply a loss for you, (Dreadsteed). - Minion theft can result in you getting the deathrattle benefit - Lots of 1 drops out there, early game value is a huge thing this time.
I play shrinkemeister. Insane card with 2x shadow madness, 2xpotion and 2x cabal shadow priest.
Also shadow word death, because you can hit your own sylvannas with it, and because it can still kill a big silenced guy like a highmane or other sylvannas.
Ressurect is bad, and Priest of the Feast is super slow. I play that 1 mana 2/2 that gives each player 4 health back. INSANE card against hunter. One mana gain 8. Wrecked.
Also just play Loot Hoarder instead of shifting shade. The shade is just too slow and what I really want is to draw to all the unfair steal spells.
9-1 or 10-1 so far across all 3 regions with basically half decks and no sylvannas/N'Zoth lol. Everyone plays rogue and hunter, if you just deny all their draws they get wrecked.

There are a lot of remedies we don't yet know a disease for.
I beat a hunter who had the legend card backs using jade rogue. I've never gone above rank 20.
I just used Hunter with all his Deathrattle cards that I have in my collection. Won on 2nd try.
I also added a Weasel Tunneler for fun, but didn't work

Jade sh*t in brawl too. Great.
One day this game will stop existing. I can't wait.
Meh kind of crap.
Sylvannas and N'Zoth should be banned from this, but that's too much to ask as usual.

Deathrattle/Silence Priest works great :D
You can also take the oppents deathrattle with Potion of Madness and Moat Lurker on Piloted Sky Golem is pretty sick

Only played a few games. Hunter slugfest shit.
Boooooooring...

Lol. I won because I was Priest.

Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.
To whoever said "just play pirate warrior for free pack", thank you thank you thank you. Fastest pack of my life :)
