Why can't you replace Harbinger Celestia with a second Unlicensed Apothecary? It costs 1 less mana, does the same thing plus limiting your opponent from playing minions in your pre-lethal turn.
The idea comes from WOW lores. In the burning crusade, Illidan creates fel orcs from the blood of the pit lord he defeated to fight for him. By running this card as a warlock, you will be able to experience the sheer power of the Lord of Outland. As a setback, though, your bloody army may betray your command, or even turns their swords toward you - a tragic yet ironic outcome for the WOW legend. In hearthstone gameplay, the force of fel orcs will be most strong when there are lots of enemies to kill, so that the chance of your minions actually attacking yourself is diluted. But after the minion war is favoring you, you may find illidan’s strength turned into a weakness.
Yes, I found replacing one Acolyte with Zap! to be helpful. But I didn't find Kripps' whole version to be better than mine. Drakkari Defender is still very efficient in upgrading spellstone and can give you some early board presence. We will see.
Thanks man!! Double healing rain is necessary since they can heal up your big dudes for you to spellstone on. Omega mind is interesting but I imagine surviving through turn 10 is the real problem. I'll give it a try some time!
I played in CN server at rank 4, and there was at max 5% of zoolock (I haven't met one in like 20 games). But yeah, if zoolock dominates your local meta, better go for Druids or Warlock to beat them.
Will rogue find its way into the meta? Pogo hopper, steal, miracle or even odd? All of these questions will be answered by monday. Honestly so hyped I literally cannot wait.
Those are all interesting decks, but except maybe odd rogue, I'm afraid they won't be very competitive because mid-range Rogues (miracle, kingsbane, quest before nerf) have always been vulnerable to aggro, and I don't see any new anti-aggro tool rogue gets from boomsday
idk, maybe 30% of the time overall? Against extreme tempo decks where this is most needed to get the most healing, you often don't have the luxury to update your spellstone, e.g., have to play it turn four to kill off a Kirin Tor Mage. But that doesn't kick this out of this deck, at all, since 5 dmg is sufficient in most cases.
With regard to removing Dread Infernal, sure it sometimes updates spellstone, but during piloting I rarely had the chance to play it from my hand even if it could update spellstone. I know some Evenlocks run it, but they don't run our exodia combo so they have more options in card to play.

An epic milestone for the commons.

Interesting deck! Got my +1 here.
Completely leaving out Ultimate Infestation is something I haven't thought about. Could you talk more about why you give up UI?
