Priest - Resurrect Priest (49% WR)
Not in a super great spot right now globally, but this is the best deck Priests have to offer. Priests have almost always been in that funny spot where good players will do really well with a deck, share it, and then others tank the overall winrate to make the class look bad.

Good, make more people net deck token Druid! I like bullying them with Zoo, have yet to lose a game to one of those.
Did you lose to me tonight?
Not if you played Token Druid, I didn't...
I definitely remember beating you, the game wasn't even close.
I don't usually stalk opponents (did you just open an account to say that?), so I'll take your work for it, you might have been one of the 3 in the last ~20 games I played with Zoolock that beat me. As I've yet to lose to Token Druid with Zoo, though, I can assure you that was not me you beat.
because if you go on hs replay and look at the tier lists there is clearly an order from first to last and zoolock is at about 51% overall where as mech paladin which is first is nearly at 55% overall.
the tier list is there plain as day.
hsreplay is mixing in old data from before the expac, or else messing up the overall winrate in some other way. Zoolock is quite likely the highest winrate deck in the game right now, but hsreplay has some kind of error in their calculations. Just pull up the list of zoolock decks and you'll see that there is no way they average out to 52% overall.
I have noticed that some zoo decks have quite high winrates when you look at the actual decks.
I crafted rafaam and carpets. running it with one copy of cauldron. the amount of cards you get back is nuts from cauldron in this deck.
it's like prince liam odd paladin, but even better.
I crafted the carpets, but not yet Rafaam. I didn't think of putting cauldrons. I dont have crystallizers, so I had put in 1 cost Dragon eggs, which have not really panned out well for me overall. I might replace the dragon eggs with cauldrons. Edit: In place of Rafaam, I have the 5 cost 4/5 that makes two extra copies if you play her with 10 mana.
I think 1 cauldron will be enough, you can try 2 though. as long as you have the carpets and the base stuff it should be fine. rafaam is just like a late game hail mary play. you could put leeroy in instead of him if you have leeroy. zilliax goes in everything as well.
you think zoo is worth looking at then? I was looking at a carpet one but also an imp deck someone made on here that looks really good as well.
btw I wasn't saying the deck was bad or anything, I was just saying what I see on hsreplay.
it's at the bottom of tier 2, doesn't mean it's bad though. all those decks are like 1 point off each other anyway.
I actually want to play 2 zoo decks at the minute myself.
sorry for the confusion.
Token druid is tanking its winrate right now. It's not king anymore.
it's mainly tanking because it's being countered. once the focus switches to countering the 2nd wave of top decks we will see if it manages to stay afloat.
I reckon it will end up being tier 1 or 2 deck when the waves settle.
The meta hasnt settle so it will change as it adapts to the strongest decks
Control / Fatigue Shaman feels like the strongest deck to me right now, whatever HS replay says (and their most popular control list is not good). It can clear the board multiple times, fully heal, remove bombs and add 10-20 cards to the deck in fatigue.
Personally I prefer the version of tempo rogue without the steal package, but I think either way it's VERY strong right now, I've got nearly an 80% wr with it or something like that.
Why would anyone play token druid? It’s for noobs, it takes no skill, and it’s no fun.
Because bomb warrior
Every deck takes skill, and different people like different decks. Which any mature player fully understands. Grow up.
