It seems Blizzard really wanted to knock druid off the ladder with the nerfs to Wild Growth and Nourish. Are there any decks that survived these nerfs, or is druid banished from ladder until the next expansion?
Not really tbh. Spiteful is OK at best. Feels like strictly worse than spiteful priest or any meta deck lol. Mecha'thun is actually pretty good tho ... Can't really think of much else xD
I’ve seen both mechathun and togwaggle Hakkar Druid and the latter seems much better. I’m actually tempted to craft hakkar and togwaggle for it. Anyone attest to its effectiveness?
Malygos druid is still a great deck especially in a meta that doesn't target it as hard like right now, just has a high skill cap now that you can't just wtfRAMPwn people. Someone hit #2 legend with it just a few days ago.
Mechathun druid is fun to play but it is very exploitable and you have to manage resources close to perfectly and it's also just really bad against aggro.
Hakkar druid is pretty good. Regular Azalina Togg might be better, i haven't played either enough to know for sure.
It is a single player deck with zero interaction with your opponent. It's quick and fairly high win rate though. In my opinion it's boring and mindless as f*** so whatever floats your boat!
All the druid decks are still fine, the nerf didn't destroy them they just lost their appeal and a couple of % in win rate. Piloted well they still perform.

The problem I've seen with mechathun druid is the druid running out of deck too fast to dump their cards or running out of ways to dump their cards. This is why Hakkar just seems strictly better. It's more flexible and you don't generally have to slow down your deck drawing.
Been having fun/success (averaging 55% WR in ranks 3-5) with this deck which I found a version prior to the expac and have adapted slightly.
I find it fun because you have to adapt your win condition to which cards you draw (prior to Barnabus) and who you are playing.
You can win via OTK Maly (up to four Maly's with Ixlid and Gloop) then Swipe, Swipe, Moonfire if needed. You can go wide with Tyrantus or LK (Ixlid and Gloop) to have sticky BEAST versus certain classes that cannot board clear.
Naturalize is here for removal and overdraw vs. other OTKs.
Depending on the daily meta I flex Moonfire in if I need more burst, but swap for extra Plague against aggro and even for MojoMaster when facing OTKs
It does struggle at times, but the game plan is always different each game. I don't feel any matchup is unwinnable which is nice in this meta.
Whenever I see a druid deck gadetzan auctioneer I have to consider it's Hakkar, Mechathun or Gonk. Don't think any other classes has as many variables as Druid right now. Without gadgetzan it could be Taunt, Token or Malygoose.

Togwaggle or Mechathun.

Maly druid is still pretty good so is cthun. Maly is alot harder to play. Depending on meta spiteful druid might work somewhere.
Used an egg Druid to get to rank five, easy-peasy....
Mechatun, Toggwaggle
mind giving me a list?
Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.
Hakkar druid EZ

Quest still fun and strong 💪💪 to 5

PS how do you get the deck to show in reply instead if the link?
This is my take on this archetype
Haven't played much, but after nerfs has strong results. This season it went 13-7 around Rank 5. How is Psychmelon in this deck?
