![]() This build relies on spells to do its dirty work, with its best card being Deck of Lunacy, a Darkmoon Faire Legendary that transforms the spells in your deck into ones that cost three more. And while, like Paladin, its days are numbered, it's unlikely that Team 5 will nerf it into exile. All combined, you can overwhelm your opponents with one of Hearthstone’s most underutilized tribes.We've already covered how No Minion Mage has quickly seen Hearthstone descend into complete lunacy. And to top it all off, Gigantotem represents a powerful individual threat you can slam onto the board. Then, using powerful Totem buffs like The Stonewright, you can turn your Totemic army into a real threat. You’ll have no shortage of Totems available to you thanks to Genn Greymane making your Hero Power cost one mana, and the new weapon, Carving Chisel, summons them as well. However, the latest influx of Totem cards in Murder at Castle Nathria created enough synergy in Wild to turn the deck into a dominant force. Their only choice is to sit and twiddle their thumbs as you slowly beat them to death with a flock of Parrots.ĭespite their best efforts, the Hearthstone dev team has never quite been able to make a Totem Shaman deck viable in Standard. Thanks to the combination of Grey Sage Parrot and Potion of Illusion, you can repeat the effect of Time Warp over and over, locking your opponent out of the game entirely. Back when Open the Waygate was in standard, it was used to set up lethal combos, but its usage in Wild can feel even less fair. The benefits of such an ability shouldn’t need explaining. The quest in question, Open the Waygate, ends by giving you the Time Warp spell, which allows you to skip your opponent’s next turn. Quest Mage is the perfect example of the absolute degeneracy that is possible in the Wild format. ![]() ![]() It’s the perfect card for an aggressive deck, and Pirate Rogue uses it exceptionally well. It also lets you refuel your hand with a cheap Cutting Class. It can account for twelve damage over three turns on its own and allows for cards like Dread Corsair and Frenzied Fellwing to be played for free, giving you a massive tempo advantage. The deck effectively spams the board with cheap pirates, but what really makes it tick is the only weapon it runs, Swordfish. Smite, who only gets played if you are about to end the game. 23 of its 30 cards cost three mana or less, and six of the remaining seven will almost always be played for a reduced cost. It’s a deck practically designed to give your opponent headaches.Ī cursory glance at Pirate Rogue’s mana curve is all you need to realize that this is an extremely aggressive deck. Thanks to the classic combo of Shadowreaper Anduin and Raza the Chained, it is perfectly capable of slowly (or sometimes quickly) chipping away at your opponent’s health. It also has a number of fun ways to disrupt your opponent’s game plan, copying and outright stealing cards from their deck and hand.ĭon’t worry, though Reno Priest isn’t just an attrition deck. Reno Priest is a deck with a plethora of powerful defensive options, from removals and board clears to Hearthstone’s ultimate “get out of jail free” card, Reno Jackson.
