Well... First time ever I reach this. I'm a contented soul (about this) now.

Reno deck are meeting a new burst : Mage Reno is viable in multiple forms (Big Reno or classic), Reno Priest and Warlock are staples, Odd Pally has disappeared, Secret Mage is as said before a big threat, Even Shaman is less present, Quest Shaman is a serious thing, Quest Taunt Warrior is not that bad...

And Big Priest is still a pain in the ... ;)

In Standard, there are a variety of lists that are not agro, so it just seems you didn't play long enough in the season to see the diversity of it all. The best deck is currently a Priest Amet Combo, so not that agro :)

Any interaction with Dollmaster Dorian ?

Would you consider this little new spell, "Cold Blood", since it's now even ? ;)

Congrats ! I reached the same rank in june and july in wild and it's quite satisfying. Hope I'll manage to get Legend in september now.

I'd say like Burberry, and yet, not sure : we have precedent inconstitencies in this game. So may be Augmented Elekk will trigger.

This is paraphrased, but Peter Whalen, game designer of HS, said they don't want to have all types of hate/disruption cards in Standard all the time. 

 Aaaaaaaand that's why I play Wild.

I think of the legendary weapon as "another way" to bypass Dirty rat (just like innervation). And it's a great ramping tool your opponent don't want to ooze...

Maybe I'll give Hemet a try.

I've seen an alternative version of this concept : a Hemet, Jungle Hunter version. Concept is pretty straight forward : rush for the combo pieces, with the help of Hemet, and swap decks. The version I've seen also plays Twig to make stupid turns (Aviana, Kun, Toggwagle, Innervate, UI, break twig, vomit your hand, k thx).

Any opinion about this build ?

Flobbidinous Floop is a target to Oaken Summons which is a pretty big drawback by itself. Moreover, you have to cut one card from the current Hadronox / Maligos lists to get him in. Which would would you suggest without loosing consticency ?

 I would suggest oaken summons

 Therefore you're ready to loose tempo (both with the armor up and the Recruit of a taunt) ? Not sure it fits in the gameplay of both lists...

Moreover, we have 30 cards. So there are 128 left to be revealed. How many silences ? How many Dirty rat like ? How many techs ? Wait and see. Doesn't forbid to have a watch list, but way too early to cry for op cards.

I haven't yet reach legend. So let's see your answer :

Warlock: Brann+Kazakus+Zola, Brann+Gnomeferatu+Zola, N'Zoth, Guldan, Sylvannas+Shadowflame, Twisting Neither, you can put Baleful Banker somewhere there too. Guldan's Hero Power is pretty good, Removal is not so bad.

As I said earlier : I play all these but Banker, and when you don't draw said cards, even with aggressive mulligan, you're toast. So your answer basically reads as : "get some talent and luck, N00B". Thanks.

 If I remember correctly you were already enlightened in similar threads by users like me or Lyra, yet you didn't answer them). So why you are asking another person to enlighten your game knowledge when your request had already been done a couple of times?

Take a wild guess (pun intended) ? Because I don't think any of the tech mentionned before actually works on a solid basis. Treachery / Doomsayer is a two combo card (why not) with a dead card in any other mu (unless you consider it as a bizarre combo AOE you don't need that much when facing aggro decks). Kazakus is more than often too late for the famous Barnes / Resurrect chain or RNG-relevant. I had my lot of double 5 or 10 potions without sheep choice amongst the 12 choices - you'd say s**t happens, well yes, but I think that prooves my point : waiting for turn 6 with coin to produce something you might use if lucky on turn 7 is crying for high roll, don't you think ? By T7, most of the time, the festival has already begun on the priest side.

And even then, when I Treachery'd a Doomsayer, it was one of a three-choice to resurrect (I'll pick... Doomsayer. No, seriously, come back, LK). And a lone sheep came back to diamond spell stone, along with Rag and LK. Jeez, I even had a game where Gnomeferatu burned Barnes, my opponent didn't play anything but a Shadow vision and a spirit lash, HP'ed now and then, and won anyway. Not enough pressure, I know, well, Renolock is a control deck, right ?

So once again : even after applying the tricks you and Lyra said, I guess I'm still missing something and asking for what it is. Is that too much to ask ?

Quote from Pathod >>

I have played 6 games against Big Priest with Reno Mage and I have won 4, 2 of my opponents had Barnes on turn 4 [...] I can't imagine how easy it is to beat the deck with Reno Warlock when looking back at those matches now. I still do hate people that play that shit in casual though, fuck them all.

 Well, I'd like to see your list of renomage, and have an explanation for "how easy it is to beat Big priest with renolock". Cause Treachery is just a dead card in every other mu or when you don't have your Doomsayer. And about Brann + Kazakus = double polymorph potions, well it happens more than often you don't draw both cards before it's too late, and sometimes (often), RNG doesn't want you to brew a polymorph component...

So please enlighten me, I really want to understand and improve my gameplay ! :D

Ok, not playing so much than in june but 1 of every two decks is Big Priest (the other one being Kingsbane mill rogue...).

Big priest doesn't even need Barnes. I burned it with Gnomeferatu. The Priest player didn't play a single card before turn 8 (may be one shadow vision and a non-killing spirit lash, well, he just healed), when he hardcasted Lich king. From then he just shadow essence / ressurect / diamond. It's stupid to a point... Ok, you gonna "play aggro". Sure. Fine. Anyway, my pocket meta is so twisted with this deck it seems really really boring.
