Recommend me a fun deck

Submitted 5 years, 6 months ago by

Hi!

I have really been struggling lately to find a fun (not necessarily tier 1-2) deck to play both in wild and standard.
Somehow I seem to miss the key cards in all the netdecks available and my deck-brewing skills are not that great to be honest. I have tried though.
Decks I have tried but can't play:

  • Zoolock (Standard) - Don't have Magic Carpet
  • Even Warlock (wild) - Don't have Mountain Giant
  • Reno Lock (wild) - Don't have Kazakus
  • Darkest Hour Warlock (wild) - This I can build a version of but it literally sucks (or maybe I do?)
  • SN1P SN4P Warlock (wild) - This seemed fun (stole it from kripp) but got mostly beaten up by Rouges

Any help? Suggestions?

    My fun decks right now:

    Beast Druid: Run big beasts, try to combo Untamed Beastmaster with the card that draws a beast and doubles its health. Combo archmage with Witching Hour to bring beasts back. 

    Beast Warlock: Similar combos, but use Plot Twist with Untamed Beastmaster to buff lots of things.

    Draw Hunter: Run 1-drops, the spirit of the lynx, the lynx and Arcane Fletcher for your draw engine. Zul'jin of course.

    Burn Mage: just cram spells and spell damage into a deck with Antonidas. 

    Windfury Shaman: Put all the stealth into a deck with Zentimo, Windfury, and the guy who gives you mega-windfury. It's great fun when it works.

    Snip-Snap is new, so any mech deck with that guy is probably fun for a while.

    Zoolock in wild has many cheap options that don't require/include magic carpet. Have you looked at those as well?

    Holy Wrath OTK paladin. It's too slow, and doesn't work effectively enough, for a steady ladder climb, but when it does work, it sure is fun.

    Discard Lock is also pretty fun to play and you can have also a decent winrate, with a bit of luck.

    From you list of decks you can't do or tried, they are all Warlock.  I am gonna go out on a limb and say you want to play Warlock decks.

    There was a Warlock deck I made not too long ago for wild - Even-Reno-Mecha'thun - combine the aspects of all the arch types into one.  You play the Mecha'thun combo with Catacylsm, Bloodbloom, & Emperor.  You include Genn and Reno and build around singleton with only even costs.  You would need to fine tune it to your liking, but when you open with the Genn hero power, then later play Reno to stall more, they generally will not see the Mecha'thun combo coming.

    Haha, yes. I forgot to mention that in the post lol :D
    I do play other classes but I found that I haven't played this in particular for a very long time. Wish I have Mecha Thun :) Thanks for the suggestion!

    If you like zoolock, you are lucky. You can play some zoolock with literally everything. There isn't a single card you cannot not own.

    Not a Lock deck but I've been having fun with lifesteal buff pally.  Lots of pally cards have synergy now with restoring health to your hero, so you can take some early damage, then lay down some big lifesteal minions pretty quickly to overtake the board.

    When it comes to warlock decks, zoo's nice since you can use a very similiar list in both Standard and Wild. I'd strongly recommend crafting the carpets, though! They go in both versions, + you can use them in a bunch of other decks, especially in Wild in tandem with Hobgoblin - 1 mana 4/5 rush boys are often a huge swing. I believe Mountain Giants are also a good craft, if you want to try even lock - I made the deck just a week ago myself, and it's a lot of fun to play. Also, they are OG, out there putting in work since the beta.

    A couple Seasons ago I've got some pretty results with this: AAEBAf0GCIDHApTHArjQApfTApz4AqCAA4+CA/CGAwvQBPcEzgfUswK8tgKRxwLnywLO6QLShgPWhgOvjQMA

    It's not cheap at all, but you can make it work well even without Lakkari Sacrifice and Lord Godfrey, filling it with 2x Flame Imp. All the other legendaries and epics are almost always core cards that can hardly be replaced.

    @ OP

    Shufflelock (feat Plot Twist is a fun deck I would suggest you try. I didn't play that much with it and I didn't bring it to the ladder, but the games I had were exciting. How big is your wild collection btw?

    If you care about being competitive, then I suggest crafting the Mountain Giants for Evenlock or Magic Carpet for zoo (wild and standard), since both of them are safe crafts and used in various other decks.

    As usual, define your 'fun'.

    For me, fun is Miracle and Tempo, so I would suggest you Miracle Mage and Even Shaman.

    Miracle Priest too now that i have built my version of it :p (in my signature).

    For Wild at least there you could play a Demonlock deck. You can build it to be really aggressive or more of a midrange deck as well.

    My recommendation is to give up. Play another game for a day. Come back to Hearthstone and play arena using https://www.heartharena.com/.

    Hearthpwn had a filter based on your card collection. This site doesn't have that feature up and running yet. When trying new decks or new types of decks it may be helpful to watch a pro play them on Youtube or Twitch. I use https://tempostorm.com/hearthstone to understand the meta. If you are thinking about crafting cards I would suggest https://outof.cards/forums/hearthstone/card-discussion/375-legendary-tier-list-crafting-guide or any of the resources that I mentioned in my post on that page.

    The above comment assumes a Hearthstone Wild perspective.

    I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?
