I love this odd paladin that I fine tuned, as it enabled me to reach legend. Also, odd paladin is my favorite archetype since I just enjoy its aggressive playstyle and filling the deck with soldiers of the justice. I've always loved that flavor
Paladin being my favorite class and Yogg being one of the most fun cards to use. Fuse those together and add a bit of a help from Librams and Galvadon and you get a synergistic deck that actually works well.
You can also switch some control cards for eggs to get more aggro/midrange build
I often accept and let them rant because why not? If they are so frustrated playing a game that they need to act like that perhaps it'll be good for them to vent some.
Around the Kobolds release I tried Big Priest in Wild to try and see the appeal and learn the deck. In my first game playing the deck I lost and my opponent added me after beating. I accepted out of curiosity as to why the add. It was to insult me for playing Big Priest. But it started very passive aggressive like "I'm curious, why do you and everyone else play such a brain dead deck?" I told him it was my first game with it and I wanted to see how it plays (which was true) and he continued to insult me more. Don't remember what was said exactly, but there was enough hate speech in it that I for the first time, and so far only time, I felt compelled to screenshot the conversation and report it to Blizzard.
No idea what came of it, but I remember thinking "How sad must this poor guy's life be to flame on someone after WINNING against them?!" So while annoying, the encounter actually shaped my "accept and let them vent" policy. I usually just respond to everything they say with "GG!" If they say really hateful angry things I might add "Hit me up if you ever get the 80g quest." Being nice to them and trying to actually be their friend for some reason just seems to make them more angry though...
My favorite is when you accept and get one quick angry message, and then before you can even type back "GG" they are no longer on your friend list. Or this one time someone added me, and for some reason right after the add I got a notification that they opened a golden legendary and before they could say anything I was like "Gratz on the legendary!" He got confused and it derailed his anger.
I’ve played over 50 games with it and that spell Druid really really sucks. The only win condition is glowfly swarm double savage roar. Which is a pretty rare combo it also requires inntervate and overgrowth early enough not to be AOEd or taunted against as it requires a two turn set up. How it gets 50% is beyond me I guarantee that NO ONE has ladder climbed with this deck. Please provide proof if true. Fungal fortunes 8/10 times will discard one or two mountsellers. I’ve tried by best and it gets the most wins via demon hunter but the rest like spell mate priest or warrior etc. No chance unless you get the rare combo I.e. the opponent has no turn 6 to deal with your glow flies. Pretty rare for an opponent not to have a taunt or heal by then in their hand. Even if you get the iron bark mountseller combo priests will rip it or destroy minion even then it requires 7 mana and both cards again a rare combo.
Started with wanting to use Murozond the Infinite I got from a pack to make a control Priest. The whole Baku thing kinda spiraled out of control. I guess there's just something about winning with a class that's not supposed to use it (Glitter Moth cries btw).
I started playing Razakus-Priest when they nerfed Raza the Chained. Back then I thought : „Hey, this Archetype is cool now! Let's see what I can do with it". While building the Deck, I had the Idea to make it more focused on Controling the Game and running your Opponent out of Resources, rather than machine-gunning them down. And since then, I've won more than 2000 Matches, and even made it to Legend during RoS.
I love this Deck because there's so much you can do with it!
You can make it a Thief-Priest, add some Dragons, have a Combo, etc. Rn, the Deck is more focused on being disruptive against Combo-Decks (with... varying Results).
I asked for your list in fear you picked up something random and obsolete; but VS list is really the right choice. So, there's nothing much too add or take away... only that your replacement is totally fine. :) A good thing is that you have Captain Greenskin (a replacement for him would have been Hoard Pillager).
It seems EVIL Quartermaster is doing great and it's a good mulligan keep. Regarding the mulligan in general, yes you usually prioritize the mentioned cards, but don't keep Risky Skipper, except vs. Demon Hunter, where it's a must. I'm not sure about Armorsmith; I would keep it vs. DH 50% of the time, namely only if I have some other core cards like Corsair Cache, in the first place. It's not a keep in slow matchups.
Judging by Enrage Warrior mulligan strats, it's good to keep Battle Rage vs. Priest. This is unfavorable duel and your game plan is to draw cards, feed the board bit by bit and deplete some hp... all that to surprise and burst with Grommash Hellscream.
As with any new deck, you need some time and practice. So, don't mind experimenting with plays and forcing the deck to the limits, until you get use to it. Bomb Warrior is better than Enrage Warrior - vs. Druids and Mages, it's slightly weaker vs DH, but still very favorable (I was 5-0 yesterday). EVIL Quartermaster helps here, together with Sword and Board. The most challenging turns are t2-t5 vs. DH. You need to do it right, because we don't have [Hearthstone Card (Warmaul Challanger) Not Found] here. Tough decisions like: [Hearthstone Card (Bladestrom) Not Found] before 1/1s or draw with Ancharrr right now and use blades later as a single target removal - [Hearthstone Card (Glavebound Adept) Not Found]...
When you calculate Bloodboil Brute, this is my formula to not screw up: a) count Brute's full cost, which is 7; b) count how many wounded minions are on the board that will survive "#" pings; s) count how many new wounded minions will show up and survive. So: "a)" - ("b)"+"c)") = exact mana.
At the moment, Fiora is my favorite champion. For me, at least, she demonstrated just what Runeterra is about and how different it is from Hearthstone.
The first time I saw Fiora, I thought she was ridiculously OP. Then I saw all the support cards that could help her along, and I thought she was even more OP. But the reality is that with all the back-and-forth play that LoR offers, and all the chances to respond to your opponent, she’s actually very fair. Games with (or against) her are interesting and play out very differently than my Hearthstone experiences led me to expect. I’d definitely use a Fiora deck if I were demonstrating the game to someone who doesn’t play yet.
Good luck to everyone who submitted a card! I thought it was a fun idea to make a voiceline for my card. If you're interested in that sorta thing I'd love to hear your thoughts on it :)
The fact that Galvadon actually wins me games is insane and so much fun. Djinni also creates some very interesting scenarios with librams. And to top all of that Yogg is here to spread madness and laughs everytime I play it.
Welp, I was busy and completely missed the submission deadline for this comp. Thankfully I did catch the birthday one. Good luck to everyone who entered!
Your great guide (thanks!) may have just convinced me to craft a single Replicat-o-tron. I am always looking out for viable/fun paladin decks, so thanks again.
I know this is a little cheating, but I post here my old standard deck from February 2019, which is now very "wild". Back in its prime it brings me from rank 12 to 5 in 18 consecutive wins. Those were good days :-)
Since I play on wild only from time to time with limited collection I don't have any other competetive decks for that format.
Can you confirm is this a two or three turn combo? Use the two brewmasters (one or two turns?), then drop the horsemen, hero power, pixie, and hero power again? Is three turns really viable, given that you're not doing much in terms of tempo?
