Taunt Druid can be countered hard... It's a strong deck, but has quite a few polarizing matchups... If you can't figure out how to counter it then I'm afraid that's your problem, not the design of the game (hint - there's at least one NEUTRAL card that hard counters the entire gameplan)... Also shudderwock shaman gets wrecked by aggro... so... yes.. that deck also can be countered

 My mind when with Cornered Sentry, what card are you talking about?

 

At first I started with double bot and pixies. They are really nice against mid-range / control but they lose you games against most of the field (aggro / spitefull / cubelock). They are often "win-more".

With this list I would remove Gorehowl Blackwald Pixie for Abomination x2 and Baron Geddon

Nice deck. Lacking a bit of aoe for my taste though. Abomination  Baron Geddon helps there.

They clean tokens for HP effectiveness against Baku Paladin.

More like

Pre-Witchwood: Cubelock dominate the meta.

Day 1: Shudderwock destroys Cubelocks and any other mid range / slower deck

Day 2: Shudder haters turn to cancer hyper aggro decks. Mostly Baku Hunter and Baku Paladin. Shudderwock is destroyed by both, Cubelock is destroyed by the hunter.

Day 3: Paladin happens to win against hunter. All the huntard reroll retardin.

Day 4: Paladin: The game

Later: full aoe decks will emerge to prey on paladudes and hopefully the meta will settle down / slow down a bit.

Greymane pali is actually stronger, especially in mirrors. The even cards for pali have a way higher power level.

Once again the community here is acting like a bunch of children about a new card or new meta or whatever. I especially detest the complaints about Shudderwock.

Look, Shudderwock is a great card. The value is great and the combo potential is literally endless. Similarly to Exodia Mage. All you need to do is be patient, hold out and draw Shudderwock.

• Here's just some statistics for you all. I know it won't shut you up, but at least I put some effort in my post.
  Decks that include Shudderwock have a win:loss ratio of 44,9%. That's below decks with Jungle Giants, Sindragosa and Rhok'Delar.
• When Shudderwock is played in a game, that game has a 82,3% chance of being won by that player. These two statistics drift so far apart that it only means one thing: It's a very good card when pulled off, but it's inconsistent to the point of having an overall negative effect on your win:loss ratio.
• Currently, Shudderwock Shaman ranks as a T4 deck on HSreplay having the third-worst statistic just above Pick Pocket Rogue and Quest Hunter.

People should stop complaining for everyone's sake.

I know it feels unrewarding and a waste of time to lose against a combo. That's why I absolutely detest playing against Quest Mage. But besides that deck, this deck won't freeze your board every turn until the Exodia is complete and there is some interactivity.
I've won 80% against this deck myself with the decks I play. If you're consistently losing against that deck, you're doing something wrong.

I love you.  And, in fact, after about 14 games, I -still- haven't encountered Shudderwock Shaman - seems like there's a bit of overreaction.

It didn't take even one day to get one of the most cancerous meta yet. It's even more aggro than previous meta (hello face hunter / paladin), and slower decks have even less of a chance against TTK Shaman than they did against Cubelock featuring N'Zoth.

It is more oppressive than it was a week ago. I managed to ramp up being forced into playing Baku Paladin which is the most consistent deck out there atm it seems.

Went 14-3 with it before getting bored to death. My thoughts go to players crying againt Cubelock being THE meta deck 10 hours ago, just to be steamrolled withing one hour to release by this OTK abomination. 

I found the place, i found the Face. That's where the meta has to be. My hopes for a slower meta are crushed.

On the positive side: Gennlock is solid, Baku Dudadin is insane.

On the negative side: Tank-up! Quest failed and is still weak (+autoloss to the OTK)  but Tank up! Face with full weapons, removals and face damage  works like crazy.

Yeah I was suprised by that as well.

Played it in new handlock before i realised 22 games later that they made the OTK shaman just too easy and good. I did theorycraft on it as well but i never expected it to blow Cubelock so hard on power level. Broken AF.

So no point playing anything than super aggro / or Shudderlol. And as I love control, well my hype for the expac died a bit xD

Well to each their own, but I prefer playing with or against a Cubelock than a braindead Dudadin or Spitefull Pest (pun intented).

Get what those 3 decks have in common: they cheat stuff early and have ton of free mana. The only bad thing about Cubelock for me is that it makes most other controls unplayable because they lack value late game. Pushing the whole meta to pure aggro / OTK combo. But I am confident the loss of N'Zoth makes it much weaker against controls and the lack of Mistresses much weaker against aggro in the first 3 turns.

Finally, I have a feeling (BBH) Baku Balista Hunter will roll all over it. HP for 3 / 6 to face every single turn through the taunt wall will be terrible pressure. Probably way worse than what Secret Mage is now, And god knows it is cancer.

Another deck that will wreck Cubelock is Baku Quest Warrior. 

Nice deck. I would switch Face Collector [/card] with [card]Captain Greenskin though.

The collector would be really nice if you manage to steal other classes minions for Tess but Greenskin is instant value for the Cutglass.

I already did the pre-purchase (which is absolutely not a pre-order) so 70.

The rest will be purchased with gold. 44 packs for now. I am just planing on getting a few key cards for my Baku decks, Gennlock and Cubelock. Should be enough. 

Oh no Possessed Lackey, you died so young :(

This is pobably the ultimate swing battlecry for the new Shudderwockinfinite loop.

Crafting 2 golden ones day one.

For Zoo it is better than Blood Imp mostly because BI loses 2 of its buffers. Playing both would't be bad even if you play other buffers.
