So I've been running Patron this season and it's been doing very well. I was using Rag as an extra finisher and he works sometimes, but I wanted to experiment with some different options. Lately I've been using Yogg in his place and I've liked the results. I just wanted to see if any of you had tried this. Any thoughts?
How exactly does yogg help in the patron gameplan?
Good point, but then again, how exactly does Yogg work in any decks' gameplan? If you're going to use him, its a gimmick anyway.. so I figure you can put him in any deck
I mean Yogg isn't part of the patron game plan, but he's a last ditch against control warriors and priests that Rag isn't going to break through anyway. Usually if I'm winning, it isn't through Rag but it's through grom and Beserkers. So I decided to try Yogg to see if it would increase my winrate over control and it has won me a few games.
I'm using him as a comeback mechanic. If I'm playing well I should have control of the board anyway with patrons and other threats. If I need a board clear I'm definitely going to be losing, so I definitely consider Yogg more of a comeback mechanic for otherwise unwinnable games.
I replaced Rag for him and I don't have to run any specific activators since by turn ten I've already used a ton of spells as a Patron Warrior.
I use 2x WW, 2x IR, 2x Ghouls, and 2x Ichor's, but I don't like using the Ichor's as activators. Plus Sir Finley with Mage hero power can be an activator. I'd rather use the ichor's for early board or executes than for spawning patrons, it works in a pinch.

Seems ok.
