Hearthpwn

"As always, these decks are mostly made without play testing, so expect a healthy amount of refining to be needed before we arrive at the decks that shape the Showdown in the Badlands Meta."

We have a caveat for that. No one making decks right now knows for sure. But once the expansion launches we start adding decks that get upvoted and/or have proven to be successful in live play.

So we start with a list of decks we feel have the best outlook going into the expansion, from the decks on Hpwn, and eventually add more decks that have actually been playtested to be successful.

Lastly, when we make this initial list we tend to lean towards decks that feature archetypes from the new set, cause that's what people want to try and what people look for when they have all their shiny new cards. No one wants to hear that a Paladin deck with minimal changes is going to wreck them week 1, but it's very possible that this is what ends up happening. Sometimes the best decks are the already refined decks from the previous set. But we are not going to feature those in an article like this.

Which all of this is a roundabout way of saying that yes, it's ludicrous to call these decks "best" but they are best when filtered for the purpose the article serves, which is to get people a starting point to play with their new shiny cards.

Done ;)

Not sure how that deck even got made in our deckbuilder. Not supposed to work. Fixed with an actual working deck with same theme.
