Tempo Mage = really strong atm imo
what is the best tdeck to rank up with this season?
"Did it the other day (not for the first time, so no congratulations necessary ;) )... I wanted to share experiences though: EU ladder is relatively Secret Paladin centric in the high ranks but it is not dominant enough that an extreme counterpick seems a good idea to me. I did ranks 5-Legend with a fairly wide aray of decks - Patron Warrior (most played), Renolock, Secret Paladin and Midrange druid (the final push from 2 and 4 Stars to Legend)... Since I am Legend I am practising my freeze mage skills which results in some horrible missplays but also ( more and more) in Secret Paladin bullying (which is funny as a lot of them rage BM and I looove salty tears ;) )
Now to my detailed experiences:
Patron can be insane in this meta if you see a lot of Paladins (always the case) and a lot of druids (sometimes the case) but has its really horrendous matchups (basically anything that can clear a board of patrons - Renolock, Control Priest, Control Warrior) and thes matchups can suddenly become too frequent, rendering the deck unplayable...
Renolock: Is decent across the field but just not exceptional enough, especially the druid matchup hurt me too much and secret Paladin also is far from clearly favoured (rather 55-45 for you)
Secret Paladin: Contrary to popular advice I am usually against the idea of playing the "best deck", if the best deck acutally has strong counters. Unlike the old Patron Warrior, Secret Paladin can easily be countered and those counters are not that uncommon currently on the ladder. Additionally, I really loathe the mirror match that usually comes down to a coin flip of who plays MC first (hint, If possible, keep the coin on the draw to ramp into MC on turn 5...) Consequently I played secret paladin a bit and I even had a positive winrate between ranks 3 and 2 but I felt that I was really, really lucky (I won all the mirrors) and the counters grew more and more at rank 2 and 1.
Combo Druid: As usual, and this was the case from rank 2 to legend, Combo Druid is my go-to deck when I am not really sure what the meta looks like ... The deck has very few exceptional matchups but some good ones against common decks (renolock and freeze mage notably). However, more importantly is another fact: If piloted correctly, Midrange Druid has not a single "unwinnable" matchup. Even the bad matchups like Tempomage or Aggro Shamen are not worse than 40 % in my book. The secret paladin matchup is not favorable but better than many people give it credit for. I play a list with 2 living roots and 1 darnassus aspirant, with this configuration you are close to 50% ...
Freeze Mage: I only played it from Legend, because I suck at it... even i manage to win most of my secret paladin matchups with it though... Altogether I am not sure if this is enough rigth now. Secret Paladin is the most common matchup, sure, but there is ample of druids in high ranks (a bad matchup) and a lot of warriors (a horrible matchup, against Patron 30% at best, against Control around 15%...). In the end I only played freeze to practice it and to beat up a bit on secret paladins - yes, I am a horrible person ...
To sum it up: My advices would be either patron warrior (as long as druids and paladins are very common) or Midrange Druid in the case of a more unstable meta (which was my experience on ranks 2-1). Secret Paladin is ok as well of course, simply because of its raw power as is Renolock, a goodish deck across the field. Freeze Mage needs a really good pilot right now as winning the paladin, hunter and zoo matchups alone wont do the trick. You need at least some wins against druid as well and even then I am pretty sure that it is not the best pick right now.
I hope, this is helpful to some of you..."
I like aggro decks because the game is fast play styled. I despise long games.
I am starting to really like zoolock.
Starting to have some good luck with it so far. one rank from 9 atm. Seems to be getting better to rank up now after the first few days of the season.
My zoo deck has brann in it, the only change I did was removed one doomguard and put in a sea giant. It has gormak as well.
For some odd reason I havent lost a game today.... win streaked from 11 to 9 2 stars. o-o
So is it past the time phasse where all the good players are back to legend +? xD
Fuck cubelock
Every deck has combos. Some decks are harder than others but this thread really isn't about that. If you guys want to make passive aggressive insults at other players because of what decks they play, go form another thread.
I'll climb the ladder entirely with Control Warrior and see where I can reach with.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find meaning in the suffer!
Legend Player Every Season
Currently at 12. Gonna try out

Been using Renolock and Tempo mage and this is the fastest I have climbed ranks yet! Already rank 6 less than 2 weeks into the season, should be rank 5 by end of week then legend the week after!
