*Work In Progress*

 

Revisiting an old list I had been running a while back before the Saronite Chain Gang nerfs.  The idea is to run some minions that copy themselves and you are aiming to get handbuffs and the Val'anyr buff on those copy minions.  I tried running it with Da Undatakah and the infinite loop from Immortal Prelate and some big minion deathrattles.  However, that was WAY too slow in Standard so of course it was in Wild.

 

This list is still a work in progress, but it's got the same base idea of handbuffs and trying to manage your hand to stick the weapon deathrattle on the copy minions for a never ending onslaught of weapon reloads and more handbuffs.

This version also includes a few of the new Librams and cards that reduce the cost of them.  I'll likely put more of a guide up when I get a better grasp on the final list that I want to run.

      So I tried this... Very first game, I was playing a Reno Lock.  The turn that he played Dragonqueen Alexstrazsa, I played an 8/9 Paragon of Light after dropping Umbra to reequip the weapon.  When Paragon died it buffed a Doppelgangster.  Umbra was still on board so I dropped the Gangster.  He quit before the animation ended!

      Whether or not the Umbra addition ends up being really good or not in the long run, that moment alone was well worth the suggestion.  So Thank You, very very much!  LOL

      That is an interesting interaction that I honestly haven't thought of since the deathrattle isn't natural to the minions.  I don't know if I like removing Kings because of the nice interaction with Echoing Ooze the turn you play Ooze.  However, I'm sure there is something that could be cut to make room for her.

      It is likely difficult to play her with Doppel or Faceless as that would require the game to go long.  However, she could help to avoid a silence effect or a shuffle like Psychic Scream from completely removing Val'anyr from the game in some scenarios.

    Have you considered putting in the quest to abuse of Emperor Wraps and get even more buffs?

      I haven’t explored that avenue, no.  But now I want to do that with a Stonetusk Boar in the deck.  :)

    Is there a place for Chillblade Champion in this deck? I used to run one in my older Val'anyr handbuff decks because it can act as either an emergency heal or a surprise lethal.

    On second thought, perhaps it is not so great here since this deck is very all-in on cloning Val'anyr.
