Post-Nerf Legend Hearthstone Decks - See You Later Giggling Inventor

The end of last week saw three card nerfs and it's time we share what is currently being played at the top of the ladder. All the decks below have been collected from Legend level Hearthstone players and should do you justice on the ladder.

Keep in mind that we're still early on with the new nerfs so there's still room for more decks to grow to be awesome. If you don't have the dust to craft anything below, don't worry! We've also got a new expansion being announced in just a couple of weeks at BlizzCon, with a scheduled release for the start of December. The meta shall be stale no more... soon (tm).

Rank 2 & 35 Recruit Hunter

Two variants on Recruit Hunter are having success at the top of the ladder.

Portia's
Thomerio's

Good catch. Not even sure why it would even be considered as a "Recruit" hunter. As you pointed out, it has more Deathrattles, and to be fair with two Candleshot's could be called "Weapon" hunter.

Also, the Rank 8 Taunt Druid may have taunts, however that is most certainly not the intent. That deck as pointed out in another post is meant to fill the board and OTK you with either Savage Roar / Branching Paths. It just has the Haddronox as another means of keeping the board constantly flooded with minions.

Wow. You mean that killing Giggles wasn't actually the 'big nerf to Quest Rogue that'll kill it once and for all' that everyone was looking for? Well, what do you know...?

That's a lot easier than you think. Mana wyrm was pretty nuts, but being bumped to 2 mana didn't kill the entire class. I got to 238 Legend last season with a mage deck that didn't run mana wyrm.

The legend meta is significantly different than metas leading up to it.
