[QUOTE=Cesakich;50404080]I don't have enough of a collection to really do fun decks :/ Unless something like N'Zoth Hunter counts I have been thinking about doing some kind of N'Zoth/C'Thun/Reno thing, but I don't know the first thing about building an effective Reno deck[/QUOTE] Unless you plan on hitting fatigue you traditionally only want one duplicate of a card in your Reno list at most. An example of this would be running two Dreadsteeds in your list for some kind of N'Zoth synergy, or two Hellfires in [I]very[/I] aggressive metas. Here is a reno shell that typically make up the base cards of a all current renolock decks: [t]http://i.imgur.com/9HyDEQr.png[/t] The remaining card slots should be filled with cards that you feel will help you achieve your win condition. Some lists run Emperor, Leeroy, and Faceless to combo with Power Overwhelming for 10 damage burst. The Hero Power and Reno hp restore carries the deck to that win condition. If you want to run a N'zoth listyou'd ideally want to populate the deck with either several strong deathrattle minions to fill out the curve, or simply a handful of strong deathrattles like Sylvanas and Cairne. Ideally you'll want to stall faster decks until gaining board control or try to grind out slower decks and then using N'zoth to swing the game in your favor.
[QUOTE=Cesakich;50402560]I actually don't think any class is completely fucked in Arena right now Nothing as bad some classes before LoE Also, I wish Vol'Jin had been as good in constructed, I love the character himself and think he deserved better[/QUOTE] Vol'jin was decent enough when Handlock was everywhere I found, ran him in dragon priest for a few months.
-snip-
So I always figured that Soggoth would be completely useless but I threw him into a mage deck just to see what happened. Turns out he's pretty good against priests as long as you can keep your board clears half decent.
[QUOTE=SomeDumbShit;50405949]Vol'jin was decent enough when Handlock was everywhere I found, ran him in dragon priest for a few months.[/QUOTE] Kibler also made quite a good Reno ShadowPriest deck that utilized Vol'Jin better than any other deck IMO. In fact, he was indispensable to the deck.
I'd say Vol'Jin was the best priest legendary until standard Velen and the inspire one were both gimmicky and rarely played
dropped from 13 to 20 after all ebola shaman and zoolock. fuck everything.
[T]http://i.imgur.com/xyWVRVr.jpg[/T] Tunnel Trogg is a balanced card. The Trogg in the middle even survived 12 eyeball missiles from C'thun and later on I (Master of) evolved a 1 health Fire Elemental into Confessor Paletress. Evolving before hero powering was definitely skill.

Oh my god I'm having so much fun with a slight variation of Savjz's Yogg Druid. Not to mention winstreaking.
[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;50410203]This kind of degeneracy is the kind that makes me cringe, as a control player. Shaman is the reason why Priest isn't viable in constructed this season. ;_;[/QUOTE] I got to rank 7 with a N'zoth Dragonlord priest deck. They are actually really good.
N'Zoth Priest inherently feeds on other control decks. Its good against Control Warrior and EXCEPTIONALLY good against N'Zoth Paladin. Entomb is disgusting. But playing against Shamans is horrible. Its miserable. And Aggro Shaman is not only the best performing deck in the meta, its also the most popular. [editline]28th May 2016[/editline] N'Zoth Paladin and Control Warrior have a good Aggro Shaman matchup, which is why Warrior is slowly climbing in prominence lately and why N'Zoth Paladin is tier 1.

[QUOTE=KillRay;50412547][IMG]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CjNFauDWEAEfXiZ.jpg:large[/IMG] the same way this does[/QUOTE] You have to hand it to Kripp, he's experienced some really weird shit in Hearthstone. Then again, that may be a given considering he's probably the single most prolific Hearthstone streamer out there.
Why do I keep running into zoos that have Soulfire and Argent horseriders in their deck? Did some kind of a face variant get popular recently?
Argent Horserider has always been considered as a (spicy) one-of and Soulfire is seeing some play here and there to give Zoo some more reach. Burst damage is necessary against decks like Miracle Rogue and N'Zoth Paladin, which are both T1 decks. [editline]29th May 2016[/editline] It also deals with a T2 Totem Golem if that says anything. [editline]29th May 2016[/editline] I'm seeing more and more Zoolock decks looking more like combo decks than aggro decks right now. I even saw a legend list run both Doomguards AND Leeroy.
You gotta hand it to standard and Old Gods, even if it's not all good the meta is [I]weird[/I] right now There's a billion variants of Zoo and fucking Yogg-Sarron is seeing a decent amount of play
You know what, I'm gonna have to give that a try. Having a charger that you can put your PO on + soulfire for a lot of burst is obviously a good idea (I don't have a leeroy and you can't really do that with doomguard). Even when you don't need a burst finisher the horserider is good both for trading and pushing face damage. I'm getting kinda tired of playing inconsistent decks that just autolose to aggro when you don't draw the right answers early on. If you can't beat them, join 'em :v:
[QUOTE=Cesakich;50415934]Yogg-Sarron is seeing a decent amount of play[/QUOTE] Because people realized that with 8 to 12 spells, Yogg is actually decent and kind of viable to run.
[QUOTE=pipantarctic;50416058]Because people realized that with 8 to 12 spells, Yogg is actually decent and kind of viable to run.[/QUOTE] With that amount of spells being cast, he nearly always clears the board and draws some cards to boot. He's used as a DOOM-like spell for classes that lack both card draw and, most importantly, board clears, like Druid. I honestly want to fight the right Priest deck to put him in as well, since Priest really lacks any good board clears now that Lightbomb has left.
[QUOTE=pipantarctic;50416058]Because people realized that with 8 to 12 spells, Yogg is actually decent and kind of viable to run.[/QUOTE] I've had some really fun things happen with my Yogg mage deck It's very rarely good but just rattling off 10-15 spells then dropping him and watching the fireworks is great. I've killed myself a few times with it but it's definitely awesome to watch every time

Hearthstone has been less frustrating for me than playing Overwatch since I crafted Yogg, presumably because I don't need to depend on potatoes for teammates in the former. What has the world come to?
I'm watching Savjz's Yogg-Saron gotd (game of the day) video on university pc and Youtube's playlist thinks yogg means yoga or some shit and gotd meand god. "Watch next:" [T]http://i.imgur.com/QBjxMcH.png[/T]
Well Yogg-Saron is a god, so all of those prophets and yoga-trainers must be praising him.
I like having Jaraxxus in my Reno deck. It pisses so many fatigue based decks off and usually clinches a victory out of defeat.
