Ashes of Outland Meta Decks - Pro's Edition
With a new season it was time to see what decklists the pro's are playing and apparently even the pros are looking for something other than DH to play, because we did not find a single DH list in our search this time. Which suits us, because the main DH Tempo list has not seen much of any change anyway and we were hoping to show some deck innovations and techs for the new season. Here's what we found:
Mage
Let's start with an outburst of Mage decks. Mage seems popular among the pro's! It is 2 variations of Highlander Mage with nearly indentical lists except for 2 tech choices: FenoHS has gone with an Acidic Swamp Ooze and BoarControl has gone with Overconfident Orc. The aim for both seems to be to put a stop to aggression, so pick whichever you feel is the better choice for your Meta.

Priest
A curious situation. Both Zeddy and XiaoT played Galakrond Priest, both credit Moyen_HS, but both ended up with different lists! Much like at the Mage lists, one list includes Acidic Swamp Ooze and one goes a different direction, in this case including Wild Pyromancer. XiaoT hit Rank no. 1 Legend with his variation, so take that for what you will.

Rogue
This J.Alexander Rogue list was tweeted out, with the message "Attempting to brainstorm something that performs better against Warrior without losing much of an edge against DH". That intent seems to have gone fairly well given as he hit Rank no. 28 Legend with this list.

Warlock
BoarControl didn't just play Mage, he played some Warlock too. He went on an 18-5 run, and reached up to Legend no. 45 Rank with this Galakrond Warlock deck that employs the old Lackey Package, inlcuding Dark Pharaoh Tekahn.

Warrior
We have no less than 3 different Warrior lists here. All based on the same theme, but with subtle but important differences. First we have noblord with the "classic" Risky Skipper list, and then lists from Nagon and NoHandsGamer who both include Grommash Hellscream but cut very different cards for it, with different implications. Nagon cut a Kor'kron Elite effectively changing out one finisher for a different one, while NoHandsGamer swapped it for Teron Gorefiend removing a very distinct part of the classic list to load up on even more face damage.

This post should have been titled "The decks that make HS boring and ruin creativity".
wild secret mage standard tempo dh legend both modes....super amazing and so hard.....yawnnnnnnn
Damn! That's a lot of games. You've got to be well over 10,000 wins by now. I'm getting close. I've got all golden heroes too, but only my Warlock is over 1000 wins. Still grinding on the others.
I'm shocked that people have hit 1000 wins already with Demon Hunter after only a month. I haven't seen any yet.
I think there are tons of DH's out there because people have leveled up their other heroes to 500+ wins so they probably are working hard to get the 500th win with DH. I know I am. I've got 270 wins so far in the past month with DH. It's just something new to do. :)
It's crazy to see warrior have the least legendaries out of the lists
apparently even the pros are looking for something other than DH
If that doesn't trigger an alarm, what exactly would? Oh, look, they have a rogue deck... we really needed an article to tell us it's a viable deck.
Not surprised no pallys, bit surprised no shamans (I watched HSReplay for shamans yesterday, didn't even need to look for those, all D5 and higher). But... no hunter or druid? That's just weird, pros or not, at least HL hunter is a Very strong deck.
ok
Every game has a toxic community if you expose yourself to it. You have the option of not communicating with anyone while playing and net-decking.
How does the 'community' affect the gameplay at all? If you enjoy the game, just play it. You can't even message people unless you add them as a friend
One of the worst metas in HS history. And DH still isn't balanced despite what all the circle jerkers will say. Get back to me when Altruis can't cast pyroblast on the entire board and enemy face.
Yes but you have to give up card advantage for it so it's balanced. /s
I fact I am surprised someone can make it using a seemingly simple Gala-warlock deck :P~~~
When are the upcomming nerf for demon hunter thats make no skills to play 4/2 legendary cant hit face pliz..... with right or left hand come on.... its so broken...
Man, the state Hearthstone is in is pretty crap.
Wilds pretty good if you have the cards :)
some decks are identical with the exclusion of acidic swamp ooze
So, according to your list, pros only play 5 classes out of 10...? If this is true, then Hearthstone is in deep s*** :)
You are not going to find many Shamans being played in top 100 Legend ranks, that's for sure! =P
Meta decks but no DH decks DH is the meta
No because they are so smart they dont wonna nerf them agian. im so angry at that point for demon hunter so op after still got nerf....
