[Legend] Freeze Discolock

Here's the list that carried me to Legend for the first time.

Freeze Package

It's a Discolock, but with a Freeze package: 2x Glacial Shard, 1x Frozen Shadoweaver.

Reason for that was the local meta I encountered from D3 (also in line with meta reports): a  very strong presence of Pirate Warriors, Demon Hunters and mirror Discolocks, and Freeze proved indeed a winning choice against all of those.

The explanation is that while Taunt also seems a good solution against Aggro, you still leave the initiative of trades to them, especially if you are behind (quite likely against DH and Warrior).

Instead Freeze steals back the initiative, or it secures it for you.

I actually think Kanrethad Ebonlocke can be replaced with a second Frozen Shadoweaver.

Do notice that the Freeze Package is obviously meta dependant: if for any reasons PW, DH and other board-based Aggro disappear or shrink from the radars, Freeze should be proportionately replaced with other cards.

Extra Replacements

Maiev Shadowsong can (and probably should) be replaced with Loatheb. I keep Maiev here because that is exactly the list I used for my climb. Notice that she can act as a Freeze on steroids, so she's coherent with the plan.

The Soularium can hardly be replaced, sorry.

      Not really, I stopped playing it after reaching Legend last month.

      I assume it is still good enough this month, and I am not sure there is much more room for improvement here, besides ditching the Freeze package and Maiev for other cards. 

      The rest of the deck can hardly be improved until more cards are released, IMHO.

    Great list, thanks for sharing! I'll use this for grinding warlock towards 500 wins until the net expansion hits (I'm at 290 now). It's fast, it's strong and it has just the right amount of rng for my taste.

    Interesting take on Disco.  I agree that you should bring in Loatheb.  And as much as I like Kanrethad Ebonlocke, getting a good set up with Disco and him is not exactly easy.  I'd go another Frozen Shadoweaver.

      Yeah, I had to play Kanrethad too often on his own, with no synergy (although it's pretty nice when you can combo him).

      I keep Maiev here just because that is the list I used for L, but indeed Loatheb is better overall atm.

      DH are already applying the Shadoweaver for similar purposes, so I decided to extend that further with early Shards.

      As they say, fight Ice with Ice, I guess.
