On October 8 we're getting a huge change-up in Standard with the start of the "Doom in the Tomb" Hearthstone event. 23 cards are temporarily moving from Wild into Standard for 2 months!
With it coming out tomorrow, we thought we'd highlight just a few decks that have been theorycrafted by RegisKillbin to get your mind thinking about the potential of these new cards. Check out the decks and a video below before Doom in the Tomb arrives on October 8. We'll be highlighting decks as we find awesome ones to share with you after the event goes live, so stay tuned to the front page!
Do you have any ideas for new decks for the event? Add them to Out of Cards in our deckbuilder and share them with us in the comments below. Do note that these decks will currently flag as Wild. We're waiting for the patch to hit before we make changes to have them show up as Standard, so don't panic!
Tempo Mage
N'Zoth Control Priest
Secret Paladin
Evolve Shaman
OTK Priest

I'm not able to use the new old cards in standard. Anyone else having a problem? Thanks!
Because you probably copy and paste the deck and game is using your wild cards from the collection not those given by them. I had the same issue by copying the deck.
Thanks! That was it!
I still believe in a deathrattle Rogue!!1
I believe in a deathrattle Rogue too, but i think there is also something to do with deathrattle hunter ! (Say the guy who regrets crafting Oblivitron at the beginning of RoS...)
I can't wait for the event to start! I've already prepared a soon-to-be Standard "Highkeeper Ra Handlock" deck if you are interested :)
wouldn't Rag make perfect sense in the Tempo Mage deck? Seeing how he is an elemental in a deck that runs double Elemental Evocation.
turn 4 Rag sounds pretty fun to me (and turn 6 isn't bad either and could be an out if you didn't get combo pieces fast enough)
Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Rag will be showing up in evolves from Mogu Fleshshaper now
And Sylvanas is going to show up from druids' Faoris. Great, eh?
so what, that card is already cancer. Doesn't matter how hard you get highrolled, you're gonna lose if they pull the combo on turn 3-4.
Have fun trying to play N'zoth decks while Evolve Shaman highrolls everyone out of existence
Should do, though there's chance it won't depending on how they've implemented Rag's card set flag and how it interacts with legal card pools (discover, evolve etc).
It's in the pool 100%.
But we all know the best deck will be renounce darkness-warlock
Do we (exactly) know when the 23 should be playable in standard tomorrow ?
Yes, the event starts at the usual expansion launch time (10AM PDT / 1PM EDT / 7PM CEST).
I want a fecking legendary card with the Headless Horseman.
I think the tempo mage would potentially benefit from the new mage quest. Maybe cut one book
Ah yes. Because nothing screams tempo like "do nothing on turn one for a reward that comes into play far too late".
Nope, wayyyyyy to slow
First!
Spotted typo: Doom in the Toom
Looking forward to the event!
