I don’t know if the following would serve as a suggestion, but, was there any card that didn’t work well in the deck?
Although I’m not able to actually test the deck, I would test with either the addition of Zilliax or expand the elemental package with [Hearthstone Card (Al’Akir the Windlord) Not Found] and Earthen Might.
I switched to a reno zoo lock deck in standard which can out-aggro all quest decks and only has warrior as a bad matchup. Have decent results so far. Got beaten by a secret mage.
Yep, seems to be much more consistent - when you play the combo your opponent takes the damage immediately and if they live they still need to deal with the left over board which deals even more damage.
You forgot one thing. Currently we have Standard Casual, Standard Ranked, Wild Casual, Wild Ranked, Tawern Brawl. So the player base divides into these 5 parts. If you dillute the game with 10 new formats, in bad times (evening, school time etc.) the wait time to find a match in the particular mode can extend to very lengthy ones.
I've read the comments in both WCDCs and I feel bad for the people, who wanted to see well-designed cards reaching the top and not some uninspired meme creations.
I could see it working if it was a monthly or weekly rotating additional format (basically, Tavern Brawl, but around longer). That way, the player base isn't split between 17 different formats.
I think we also run into the issue of balance, which is why maybe a shorter rotational period is better too. If it's gone in a week, no one cares too much that the balance is shit.
I know this is a meme deck, but in order to have fun with this, you should first and foremost, survive the early game. Most of the deck is consisted of dead cards (the combo pieces and cards to assist the combo resolve earlier) and you also have quite a few dead turns (like Gadgetzan Auctioneer turns, the Anka, the Buried turn and the 10 mana combo pre-setup). Being passive as Rogue won't help you last long (especially with decks like Odd Rogue, Odd Paladin, Even Shaman, Secret Mage etc lurking in all ranks), so you may need a more tempo oriented package and I guess some taunts?! Also let's not discuss the fact that disruptive combo strategies like Dirty Rat, Deathlord and others can cost you the game from a vital combo piece loss.
Hey :) Check out the "new version" of this deck - https://outof.cards/hearthstone/decks/7390 - same shell, tweaked combo. Seems to work well, I just beat an Odd Paladin and an Even Shaman.

It helped me a lot to decide which component should I buy. You can compare parts side-by-side. Also you can see how they perform together with your other components..
I actually don't think Elysiana will work with my card bundle, because she does not shuffle cards, but replaces your entire deck, which I think is a big difference. And while the cards themselves aren't the best, Lake Seer does add a lot of power to them imo.

Six Formats Hearthstone Could Easily Have
I have an idea:
Casual Mode - Netdecks are banned. Gold is not rewarded. Quests cannot be completed. This is purely just for fun mode.
Best decks after nerfs!

I take it that you never play Hearthstone with the sound on. Am I correct?
