So, I always waste a lot of time thinking about stupid combos when a new expansion is about to get released, and after dropping some ideas that I had with shaman and hunter I found out that you can still make a Mecha'thun combo in warlock thanks to Plot Twist, I tried to make a list (link in the spoiler):
I know that there are a lot of new combo disruptors, but only Unseen Saboteur is good against this one (Hecklebot is kinda random since there are 17 minions) and probably not every deck can afford to play 2 of that... I'm not sure, is combo not dead yet? What do you guys think? Every constructive comment is very much appreciated.
PS: the combo is explained in the deck list, but I'll post it here too if you don't wanna watch it: 1- You need to have only 1 Plot Twist, 1 Dollmaster Dorian, 1 Shriek, 1 Grim Rally, 1 Mecha'thun and no other cards in your deck, hand or in play, except for 1 health minions, those don't matter. 2- Play Dollmaster Dorian, Plot Twist your hand. Dollmaster Dorian will then summon a 1/1 copy of Mecha'thun. 3- Play Grim Rally on Dollmaster Dorian, that will leave you with only a 2/2 Mecha'thun in play, a normal one in hand and Shriek. 4- Play Shriek: you will discard your Mecha'thun and kill the 2/2 copy that you have in play, triggering its deathrattle that will win you the game.
You can also pull off the combo by using Spirit Bomb on Dorian because it dies from Shriek too, that way you have a back up in case Grim rally gets pulled from your hand. You can also have another cheap spell in your hand such as Mortal Coil to bait the Unseen Saboteur pull too.

Yup, good suggestion on spirit bomb, thanks a lot!

All the opponent needs to do is wait for you to empty your deck and most of your hand before playing these. Unless you're holding 5 wisps to play the turn you combo, hecklebot and unseen saboteur are basically guaranteed

Hecklebot is not dirty rat, it pulls minion from the deck, if you have them in hand it actually only help you empty your deck faster. Unseen saboteur is good against this deck, that's pretty obvious. I prefere this instead of galvanizer + grim rally (even if you need yo play one more combo card) because you need to draw galvanizer and mecha'thun and play galvanizer on a different turn. What I'm saying is that I prefere to play a 5 cards 9 mana combo instead of a 4 cards 11 mana combo, but that's just my opinion.

Actually, this combo looks pretty good.

Mecha’thun decks are the devil. Don’t.

Why not just play Galvanizer + Grim Rally?
