Yeah, I always try to make my posts "good" so to speak. You're probably right Sinti, timezones would make it kinda difficult to guess unless a major part of the users were from the same place. I was just curious about posting time being relevant or not, now I guess it barely matters.
I was wondering the other day, what is the busiest time of the day for Hearthpwn? Does it vary much from day to day?
The context of this question is that sometimes you post something and gets no traction whatsoever and it kinda sucks. So similar to how "influencers" upload stuff to social media at specific times of the day to get more views, would you say there is an optimal time to do this in Hearthpwn?
I know that as opposed to social media, you can't make a living out of Hearthpwn likes and views, but hey, I'm still curious.
(I'm not sure if this should be here or in off-topic tbh)
I faced something similar some weeks ago and it did have the corpsetakers, which are waaaay better than the felsoul inquisitors. The problem though is that anklebiters are pretty bad on their own and also that the amount of taunt and divine shield activators is kinda low.
I'd say go for the changes, test them out. You can always go back if you aren't happy with the result, but if you never try them, you will never know if you missed out on something or not.
Unfortunately, I've never played against Mecha'thun Warlock with this deck, so it's complicated for me to say.
I'd say drawing keleseth early and doomguards are the key to win this matchup. They have too much spot removal and AoE for us to have a decent board that sticks.
If I face one in the future I'll let you know how I handled it and how it went
Oh and by the way thank you for trying it out! Glad to hear you're doing well with it :)
Geist has gotten worse over time, there are better things to run.
Benedictus is going to be relevant in too few matches, not worth it
There's an alarming lack of 5 drops. Other decks can compensate this by running plenty of 4 drops and 1 drops or 2 drops and 3 drops, but that can't work with your list (because you only have two 1 drops and one 2 drop). Why are you not running scalebane? Not only it's a great 5 drop that suits the style of spiteful decks, but it's also a dragon.
In the spirit of the last point, I would also add the second fungalmancer
Other considerations:
The lich king isn't really necessary because you already have 2 copies of free from amber and an archivist (you don't want to make the deck more top heavy than it already is)
The DK is kinda spicy but it would be one of the first things to cut imo.
Not sure if 2 copies of cabal shadow priest are necessary, 1 could be good enough (especially considering it's not great vs hunter)
Some other points for strategy: - Against aggro, look to play Prince Keleseth early. Against any other deck (especially control), don't play him until you have at least one Twilight Acolyte in hand otherwise it will make your Cabal Shadow Priest a lot worse.
I find that highly questionable. Spiteful decks are tempo/beatdown decks. Yes, you can switch gameplans, but not playing keleseth just to make your stealing better is most likely going to hurt you more than it will help you.
I agree that this deck has a hard time against control mage and odd warrior, but they're not as played as hunter and priest (high or low ranks), so I guess it's still a pretty decent deck overall for the time being

I'd say those are pretty useless legendaries but I'll also say this: don't disenchant yet if you don't need the dust

I love deckbuilding challenges, but I'm afraid wild is uncharted territory for me ;)

Update: reached rank 1, 3 stars, legend will come soon.
Also damn, the warlock subforum seems kinda dead atm :(

Finally encountered some, here are the replays:

Not much to say though, I just tried to stay as aggressive as I could.

Why not Shadow Ascendant? Injured Blademaster could also go well with your strat (because you already have Circle of Healing)
Perhaps you could take a look at Firebat's aggro priest from October 2018:
http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1188278-firebat-aggro-priest
I know it's more aggro than tempo, but you could use it as inspiration I guess
Other than that, I think it's complicated to build a tempo priest without Spiteful Summoner, but maybe not impossible

I've faced a bunch in the R5-legend gap and it seems to fare well, but I'm not sure if it's worth the craft
Yeah, but odd rogue is not as good as it used to be unfortunately
If hunter, priest, paladin and quest warrior bore you, I'd suggest even shaman, I think it's the best deck of the remaining ones.
That being said, I'm going to take this as an opportunity to plug my deck:
I encourage you to check the writeup if the deck sparks your interest
I've been doing well with it in the R5 to legend climb so far and I think it's quite fun to play.

Almost a year ago I made a tempolock deck which took me to legend and became my most popular deck on this site:
Now, I've created a new version and I've been doing well with it, so I thought I should share it like I did back then:
For more info, you can click on the deck's name (I wrote quite a lengthy writeup with guide, stats, proof and more!)
It's quite entertaining to play, let me know if you like it if you end up giving it a try :)

I still disagree about most stuff but oh well, it's your deck after all :)
Regarding the keleseth thing, funny as it might be, please don't hold it, it's not worth it

My opinion regarding your list:
Other considerations:
Aside from that:
I find that highly questionable. Spiteful decks are tempo/beatdown decks. Yes, you can switch gameplans, but not playing keleseth just to make your stealing better is most likely going to hurt you more than it will help you.

I'm currently at rank 3, but once I'm done with exams I'll do the final push, and I'm quite confident about reaching legend and going beyond.
This is the deck I've been using, which is inspired by an old deck of mine which got me to legend (which was also the most popular deck I've made :)
