Descent of Dragons Meta Decks - Ready for New Ranked Ladder
Wether you want to rank in the last day or so of the March season, or want to get a flying start with the new Ranked Ladder system in April, we have gathered the best decks for you for this short period before the next expansion drops.
Take advantage of a stable meta where you will still largely know what deck you are facing and what kind of tech options you have with your decks against the competition. There's potential to rank up in this first week, get the climb out of the way and then spend the rest of April screwing around with the glorious new meta that is bound to take shape.
It's perfectly fine to want to wait out this first week and dive in when the expansion laucnhes, when no one really knows what's going on and what's good, but then this deck post is probably not going to offer you anything.
All these decks should be compatible with a new Leeroy-less meta, though we did little more than replace each copy of Leeroy Jenkins with a copy of Reckless Rocketeer. Given the time frame and the comparable nature of both cards this seemed like the best option.
Here's the decks we have, at least 1 for each class that should allow you to rank up, even if some of these decks will obviously have a higher win rate than others. Enjoy!

WARRIOR
This had a Galakrond deck using Acolyte of Pain in a previous version. It has been replaced with this Highlander Warrior deck, which should also be quite successful. Our apologies for the initial oversight!

Overload shaman competitive? LOL If you dont manage to kill your opponent by turn 5/6 you are basically dead. Contrarily to all other aggressive decks the draw is inconsistent and lacking
You are not wrong about that. It's not anywhere near tier one, but it's the only ladder viable shaman deck, for people who want to play shaman.
I disagree murloc shaman is a lot more consistent
Just hit Legend with Highlander Warrior, it's having a hard time against Rogue's shenanigans but all in all very a decent deck.
the treant deck has like 5 cards that are rotating out why is no one mentioning this ?
Because the post clearly says it's for playing until the start of the new year
Huh, where is control warrior?
i like the budget galakrond for warlock
Highlander warrior has Spellbreaker.
Spellbreaker is a wild card now
updated
I want this expansion to roll so bad. This meta is soooooooo boring. Rogue, rogue and rogue.
Leeroy rotating? Simple solution: replace it with reckless roketeer 4HEad
xD
Don't play reckless rocketeer however made this decks has to be rank 50.
In b4 Reckless Rocketeer is in next HoF
I'm really disappointed Quest Galakrond didn't make it.
It's so satisfying to have four 8/8 rushs...
Acoloyte of pain in Galakrond Warrior is a problem
Yeah, I commented below. I missed that one, and honestly not sure what to replace it with given the synergies it has in the deck. Might have to just replace the deck altogether.
EDIT: solved it by going with a Highlander Warrior deck instead. Those have been pretty decent too.
As you said, lack of synergy and draw without Acoloyte drops the deck big time.
Quest Druid or Quest Shaman better decks than it now
