If you play priest, you can easily deal with their rattlegore with either steal or plague or any other form of releveant removal. as for their combo, Illucia takes care of that. best time to Illucia is around when they have 15-10 cards left in their deck, good chance they have drawn some of their combo pieces by then. and as for the rest, just wait them out they are sitting ducks with plenty of armor and fatigue will catch up with them.

Scorpyon posted a message on So, about ETC warrior..Posted in: General DiscussionQuote from FLChimaera >>How do you beat this deck? I have tried Pure Paladin, Highlander Hunter and Miracle Rogue and just get stomped. Any insight or help in this match up would be appreciated. Am I suppose to play Priest in order to enjoy HS again?
It's tough, but most fast early aggro decks will stomp on it (barring him God-drawing).
If you want a control option, any mill/discard Warlock deck wrecks it.
Any life-steal minions wreck it (If you want Paladin options).When they charge minions into lifesteal, it completely counters the combo.

DropDeadCynical posted a message on So, about ETC warrior..Posted in: General DiscussionSpeaking as an ETC Warrior player, you can aggro it down relatively easily if you know how to play around their various removal (i.e. don't give them a good Brawl or Bladestorm. With a control deck you can fatigue them by just not playing minions after they have the combo pieces in hand. Or as a Warrior or Druid you can armour out of range of the combo.

RendInFriend posted a message on So, about ETC warrior..Posted in: General DiscussionRez priest or big priest have trouble against ETC OTK because it’s easy to control the matchup with both decks until the ETC combo kills you. Control handlock on the other hand is awesome. You can stay alive with the huge lifesteal potential then hit them with a couple of tickatus and watch them auto concede. ETC warrior is a five card OTK, it would be a shame if something happened to their combo pieces...

ThisWasTheOnlyUsernameAvailable posted a message on So, about ETC warrior..Posted in: General DiscussionWarrior has not been a class I've ever been attracted to but I've been playing ETC Warrior the last few days and I have to say the deck feels really effing good. Even in my noob hands I've won a decent amount of games against all the main culprits: DH, Pally, Rogue, Druid. When I lose it's usually because I made some dumbass misplay that cost me the game. Note to self: Pen Flinger into Bladestorm will KILL Pen Flinger!
According to Vicious Syndicate CW's worst matchups are Clown Druid, Secret Mage, Highlander Hunter, Deathrattle Hunter (yeah, me neither), and Pure Pally. The caveat here is that ETC Warrior's stats are lumped into general CW stats which hasn't been doing well at all so I don't think this info is very accurate. Pure Pally is a tough matchup but I def have a positive winrate against them with ETC.
Res Priest is also a bad matchup for CW but I won the games I played vs Priest so the CW stats are probably skewing the data.
I don't think you're forced to play Priest at all. Hunter is always a good choice vs Warrior, has been forever.
ETC Warrior has 2 main win cons: ETC combo and RATTLEGORE. If you can silence / poly Rattlegore then that removes the only late game threat they have.
Milling their combo pieces with Tickatus may be an idea?

Red1 posted a message on So, about ETC warrior..Posted in: General DiscussionNever have more than 2-3 minions on your side of the board when you're getting in combo range. I know it's a bleak option, but its been working for me in high diamond atm.
I'd you've played the deck yourself you've surely experienced that your big win cons are having a monster fuckload of stall armor and the combo. If they shut down either you're hurting bad.

Jonius7 posted a message on Should I dust??Posted in: General DiscussionToo early to tell. I wouldn't dust Legendaries Week 1 at all. Stuff considered "trash" end up being good. Reno the Relicologist being an example.
Star Student Stelina is somewhat similar to Madame Lazul. Lazul became a decent card, but not a must have.

LivingOrganism posted a message on Should I dust??Posted in: General DiscussionI'm not a fan of dusting legendaries. I got Golden Vessina back in Uldum and been keeping it ever since, waiting for a deck that would actually include her. The same with Golden Barista Lynchen that I apparently dropped during Descent of Dragons from some single rewad RoS pack. Coclusion, unless you're a very poor player, I wouldn't dust it. Since you got her in golden I assume you also have a few other legendaires to play with. Also that's the most fun thing of the first week of an expansion - trying to make something work. So, if I were you I would probably spend a lot of time tinkering with control DH decks.

Bigfaz786 posted a message on Should I dust??Posted in: General DiscussionWait a few weeks before you decide, unless you really need the dust, let the meta develop, I made the mistake of dusting Rhok'delar when I opened it for the new meta. I still have a Golden Colussus of the Moon which I was going to dust, now have Turalyon, the Paladin legendary who I am waiting to dust, it's also Golden. You might might a deck that it works in. Just have fun with it for now, it will let you try decks that you normally wouldn't.

Everyone has good and bad bundle openings throughout expansions. You are rolling the dice with these pack openings at the end of the day. The only thing that's certain is the first legendary within the first 10 packs and the pity ones.

This deck is awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Just wait. Scholomance is looking to really shake up the meta so you're going to really want those new cards.
