Play reno DH. No seriously, it's hilarious to kill off every bounce card and potentially even the snake in the warlock's hand.

Sentiment <3

 I get that. Keleseth was a really fun deck to play, but but not in a better deck? This jsut seems...terrible? Just loads of handbuffing minions and not much else.

It has like a 28% win rate but it seems really popular to play. Something I'm missing?

It's just your deck that is weak against it bro, maybe try a different one. And don't tell me you're 32-2 with a bunch of different decks.

Any deck that can consistently clear the waves of imps makes imp warlock a total joke, they have no burn, no win condition, no disruption, nothing, just a deck full of stupid weak imps and one or two buff synergy cards. Of course if your deck plays nothing the first 3 turns and struggles with removals later on, you're gonna get stomped, it's just matchup dependant.

I've seen a lot of absurd decks in the last 8 years and imp warlock isn't one of them. When you play cards like imp swarm (rank 1) and Piggyback Imp you just know you can't ever be the problem. It's actually kinda cool that such weak cards are made semi-viable.

 ??? I said I'm 32-2 with Imp warlock, not that I'm having a hard time against it. I'm running the Sea Giant variant, as they are really easy to put out with it.

What kind of drugs did they do when they designed this package? It feels like nothing can beat it. I'm currently something silly like 32-2 with it.

People are zeroing in on "business models" and whether or not he speaks for this or that.

The fact is, Zeddy has proven to be willing to throw out the most racist garbage under the guise of being some sort of "spokesman" and grow his channel.  If you want the full rundown on the incredibly ugly episode where he took it upon himself to go for the most wide-sweeping act of racial erasure in eSports history, read the following:

Personally, I don't have the heart to do that thread twice.

 

 Americans are so obsessed with race. It's fucking cringe as a European.

Who on the Blizzard team is responsible for quest hunter never getting directly nerfed, but just cards around it? Fucking nerf that shit so that the hero power costs (1) already! There is no other deck that makes me rage this hard.

At first I wasn't. There weren't really any deck themes that looked fun. That changed with these theorycraft streams, though. I've watched Regis and Zeddy and token druid, totem shaman, imp warlock and volatile skeleton mage all look much more fun than I thought they would.

 Why waste time with the lower Echelon of players like Regis and Zeddy ?

If you watched Thijs or Trump, you'd know how dumb Kael'thas Druid will be, up until the inevitable Emergency nerf.

also ...

Quote from Little_X_dav >>

Nope because it won't change the meta.

PEPE LUL

 Because their personality is much more interesting to watch. Trump and Thijs aren't mean or bad people, they're just kind of bland. And yeah, Kael'thas druid looks broken as well, but we'll see when it releases. I think when people start using cards like Mutanus or the "I swap your card for my card"-card it will hopefully keep cards like that in check.

I'm mostly a control-focsed player. I like strong decks. I have long thought that HS needed 40 health to slow the meta down and now it's finally here, but the problem is that in TCGs it's usually bad to have more cards than minimum, and you want your deck to be more focused.

Are there any good decks with him in mind? Has priest, warrior or paladin maybe made some good decks yet?

This is now the strongest version of this deck with a nearly 70% win rate. 

You have to delay your hand for the shark. 

 So I don't actually want to play on curve? Because that's what I'm doing right now, hoping to buff the bot that gets +1/+1 whenever a mech is summoned. So turn 1 = click-clock, turn 2 = that, turn three = gorillabot or whatever.

I'm currently 0-8 with this deck; https://www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/decks/mech-mage-1-legend-nails-sunken-city/

Everything, especially murlock, mech paladin, quest warrior, silence priest and hell, even spellschool shaman, absolutely poops on me. Is this particular deck list bad?

Quote from Legend_Entomber >>

I think people are underestimating Warlock and imagine if the class will come through as another Demon Seed era....

Priest is pretty bad IMO... it is usually good during theorycrafting but once the meta is filled with Aggro, Priest will be in the dumpster..

 The priest expansion set almost doesnt matter cuz their core set is now insanely JACKED, easily the biggest upgrade of all classes. The zero mana legendary looks pretty exciting too, priest players have a lot to look forward to.

Warlock got the short end of the stick in everything lmao, crappy class core set changes (discard stuff with zero expansion support.. its like they WANT warlock to suck), uninspiring expansion set, things are looking grim. The only thing warlock players are looking forward to is Reno Jackson honestly, I can see a Highlander Demon Seed list being decent.

 ??? isn't the murloc stuff really strong? When I've seen Trump, Regis and Zeddy play it it has looked super strong.

When people got a full board like 3-4 turns in, I'm still at like 2-4 minions. Not really sure what I'm doing wrong.

My tactic is usually to buy ont minion of the tribe I want, then if thre is another one of the same tribe on turn 2 I buy it, if not I upgrade. Then I refresh for minions of my tribe, or at least some strong neutral tribeless minions. Maybe a taunt like the Acolyte of C'thun.

How do you usually play Battlegrounds' early game? Do people, rather than scroll and only buy one minion for your tribe, just buy two minions regardless of if it's the tribe you want or not?

I just had a game where I lost five turns in a row just because I was behind all the time.

I've suddenly seen a LOT of quest priest recently. I always thought it was seen as a really bad deck, but have they finally made it work? I always wanted to play it because it looks fun, but never found a reason to waste dust on it.
