I'm fascinated with trying out OTK Paladin without equality. What will the new lists look like? If you cut the card, does wild pyro/consecration still make sense? Can you get by without a complete board clear? My hunch is that in most games, yeah. So I'm doing a lot of experimenting with OTK pally (not dual OTK) atm. Hoping to find something we can climb with.
One thing I'm certain of, is you will not want to simply replace equality with shrink ray. Maybe decks go unchanged or maybe not. But they're too different to simply swap.

I was climbing with Holy Wrath pally after the nerfs and it is still pretty good. Running two equality and one shrink ray, which is what I was running before the nerf.
I feel like the aggro matchup isn't that compromised, you just have to be more willing to throw some resources out there and hope for the best. Dealing with cube decks is almost impossible now though. It was hard before but if you wanted to commit a lot of resources you could clear a cube board but now you're just screwed.
I feel like this was the hardest climb I've had in many months. But I finally did it with Odd Paladin. Not original, I know. But fun. Witch's cauldron is the nuts!
I laugh at the rng caldron. Watching the bot accounts just play against this rng stump and dump deck is hilarious. I think you might have rage quit once against the bot. I’ve laughed many times at the tryhards playing this list while doing quests sitting on the toilet after a 20 oz ribeye dinner. Congrats on originality!
Finally made it again. My second month of playing after a two year-break. With Midrange hunter due to lack of dust. Also thanks to the spelldamage nuke mage who conceded after having me down. Apart from that, rank was rather easy. Only lost once.
Rank two though, I have lost count how many games played at rank two, dropping back etc..
now a few days left to try fun decks, although my collection is rather poor..
Finally hit legend today. Tried once before, and failed at rank 1 3 stars.
This time I used odd rogue to 5 in the beginning of the month, went 8-7 with odd mage, then tried even pally (standard VS list) and went 31-13. I thought even pally felt great. Most games were tough or very close, but few matchups felt hopeless.
Used Auro-Complete warrior from rank 5 to rank 1. It made faceless egg leeroy odd Warrior. Also had fiery war axe. Won pretty much every game then got conpletely bored of the deck.
Went the rest of the way with togwaggle druid. Fun story, I didn't bother to craft that or malygos druid until after the mega druid nerfs. Togg is great, maly seems awkward.
Problem with hitting legend now is my plan is to play whizbang when the expansion hits, and rank 5 ain't where you want to whizbamg.

I'll play shirvallah OTK pally, cause I like the deck and it'll probably die with the equality nerf, so I want to enjoy it one last time.
After nerf, I may give a try to dragon control warrior and if it fails I'll go for beast hunter :p
Probably gonna use control priest.
I will climb with Even SHaman for that exact reason =)
I'll try to climb with Mally Rogue. If i get stuck in early ranks i'll change to deathrattle Hunter..
I'll go with secret/aggro odd mage.
I'll go with secret/aggro odd mage.
I just teched Zihi into my even paladin deck. There are just too many otk decks around. Works out pretty fine.
OTK hunter for the lols
There is only my justice now

Post the decks you're using to climb ranks. I'd like to see if there's anything different out there other than the usual mix.
what has a non zero winrate that isnt aggro or priest or hunter

switching around between malygos druid and hakkar but i'm not sure what the way to go is.

In case anyone was wondering, Midrange Hunter works well even after the nerfs. You can run the pre-nerf list and still do fine.

Had the card back when I drew 6 cards with hounds and buzzard . Legend is a joke.
