i love crazy meme decks, and I watched Disguided Toast and Kolento play a Renounce Darkness warlock, and looked super wild. They made it seem competitive too.
I play wild, and like insane games, so is it worth it to craft something like that? I’d be about 800 dust for the pair of cards.
my main concern is fun. Of course I’d like to win some games, but fun is crucial too.
Renounce Darkness is a fun meme card, that's for sure. Taking it to the competitive level is totally wrong tho.
I have two copies, so I am certain that this card makes each game unique and wild, but also, I would say, unwinnable. With this card you need to rely heavily on RNG powers you didn't know even existed!
By the way, golden version of this card changes your deck to pure gold fiesta!
Cool! I have the dust, but 800 for 2 meme cards seems pricy. I actually had 2 of these way back when, but I was a new player and these cards seemed stupid, so I DE them.
I swear I’ve seen this type of deck perform surprising well, especially with only spells other than Barnes and Y Shaarl for some sort of pressure early on.
It just seems like a Hail Mary but man it looks fun. Totally unexpected results each game. I imagine your opponent is thrown off and the game plan suddenly changes.
for the decks I’ve seen, I dont have a bunch of the epics, but I can’t imigane I need them as the point is to change them all anyway. Just need to stay alive long enough to get the key cards seems like the game plan to me.
Idk why Bane of Doom and DOOM! are always in these Renounce decks. Super expensive to craft and since the point is to swap out your cards I don’t want to craft them. Anyone think this will be a problem? Am I simply looking for removal spells before Barnes? If so, those spell seem easily replaceable.
I crafted 2x Renounce Darkness in gold, turns all the class cards golden. Never regretted it.
It's really fun to play with, but don't expect consistent results. Sometimes you get some crazy stuff like four Tirions, other times you'll get half a deck of weapons and you can't get through them all.
One thing you'll realize while playing it, is that there are a lot of bad class cards out there. Particularly for Warrior and Priest.

Just fill the deck with the cheapest removal spells you can find. Stuff like Corruption which would normally never see the light of day.
Ideally you don't want to be using any of the spells, you want to save them to convert with Renounce, but there are things you can't ignore.
On a side note, it's more fun playing in Wild, you can gain some cards that you may have forgot existed!
Worth? I mean, objectively, no. But given you play wild and your stated goal is fun, sure why not. This card is a lot like Astral communion for me - if I had ever opened one I probably would have crafted the 2nd for the lulz (though Astral was a more interesting card for me than renounce), but I never opened either

This deck is a lot of fun, plus it may have a competitive edge to it. It's wild, but nonetheless. It's essentially just Zoolock with Renounce as a seperate win condition.

I crafted a non-golden one and a golden way a while ago. Never regretted it once.
Barnes with Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound is a win condition on its own. In this deck Renounce Darkness is a backup plan.
Does it work? Maybe. Never played it, since I don't own Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound.

It's a game, fun things always worth crafting.
It has to be snakes.

Just put in any spell. Should work. Of course prefer the ones that remove your opponent's board or create your own.

Recently patch is a huge buff to renounce darkness.
Look into my banner.
If you have a friend to play with, renounce darkness is the most fun card. If you want to win games and climb ranks, this is not the card for you.
yesterday i climb from 15 to 12 rank in ~ 3 hours with it
Love the card, definitely worth a craft if you want to have silly games, but it wont get you to legend... (or will it)
