Oh lord Genn Greymane and Baku the Mooneater: I still have PTSD because of those two little shits (despite having had a ton of fun with an Odd Beast Druid).
I'd suggest putting your decks in the thread via the deck builder. You used the HS deck code, and most people aren't going to take the time to copy that code over to see the deck list. The deck builder on this site allows you to paste the deck code in for quick deck building.
So I decided to make this thread since it can turn out to be pretty interesting. What are in your opinion unique decks of this game? I have few decks that just make me happy and satisfied when I play them because of their playstyle. Do you have any yours?
Anyfin Paladin
I just love this deck. Hear me out. Something which started as one of the first Control decks with Combo finishers is now by definition Aggro Combo deck with Control tools. The closest deck to this definiton was something Combo Control like prenerfed Patron Warrior. And the flavour is pretty neat too and summarizes Blizzards Paladin class identity pretty well. It has hordes of Murlocs,2 Giants, High Priest and Sunkeeper Tarim with DK Uther or Holy Ragnaros sprinkled on top.
I know I know. Pretty generic inclusion but I still love the singleton decks. Because how they play out. Each game feels different and it has one of my most favourite legendaries attached to them from design and unque flavour perspective. You name it. Zephrys truly is great,Reno is amazing and something like Kazakus which literally lets you build your own spell are all amazing effects.
In 10% works every time. Hah. Seriously though. The abbility to just pull out the complete lockdown of your opponents cards,board and damage is extremely satisfying. Im glad those types of decks are not meta picks xD
It might surprise someone. Such an Odd inclusion indeed. However I always enjoyed Tempo Rogue playstyle since the beggining and Odd Rogue is pure perfection of a Tempo Deck. You make use of your mana every turn. You punish your opponent for playing badly consistently and you have some buffs,heals, pressuring force etc. Really enjoyable deck if you like to play tempo decks.
And what decks are unique for you dear reader? Is it Kingsbane Rogue which has unique build around playstyle or is it something else? Let me hear your thoughts ^^
- Against aggro: struggles to survive the first turns; - Against control: has no problem in the first turns, and the deck leads to an unfair late game.
Big Priest after Barnes nerf:
- Against aggro: struggles even more than before to survive the first turns; - Against control: nothing changes.
Conclusion: Blizzard wants us to play aggro, or facing Big Priest would get to a luck driven clownfiesta as outcome.
Simply glorious (see sidebar): Elemental Evocation discovered on turn 3 by Vulpera Scoundrel because "why not, I could end up in a possible scenario in which I've brought my opponent down to 10 HP and I would need a Zephrys the Great generated Pyroblast".
Roughly 9 turns later... I fucking love when my predictions are paid: it's a wonderful feeling.
Btw I was playing my personal Handcry Highlander Mage (janky, huh?), does anyone want the list?
You have to consider that it isn't part of the Classic set. So it'll rotate out of Standard at some point without the need to be HoF'ed, while Ragnaros the Firelord and Sylvanas Windrunner (just to name a couples) were originally meant to remain into the format forever. Zilliax is one of the most balanced and flexible card ever printed, being Neutral grants its presence almost everywhere but it still far from being OP or overwhelmingly oppressive like Baku the Mooneater and Genn Greymane were.
I think Hall of Fame was previously created because, among other things, Ragnaros was in nearly every deck, and it "limited design space." Then, they clarified that they only want to do that for Classic cards, not expansion cards.
Zilliax is in every deck, ever. Decks that don't run any mechs still run Zilliax for some heal.
I'm not arguing whether it is OP or not OP, but it's absolutely ubiquitous. Seems problematic when every deck is 29 cards now.
As others before me have already said, OOC is the superior community. OOC is like a distilled version of every Hearthstone forum out there, since most of the great and interesting members from Hearthpwn migrated here. As a result, there are very few salt/whiny threads and more interesting and intelligent discussions, as well as excellent feature articles on the front page, which I think is a paradise for those who love this game (like me). Forum activity could be better, but I have no doubt that will improve over time.
The worst forum I've ever visited has to be the one on the official Hearthstone website. Nothing but toxic complaints, whining, and "old man yells at cloud" threads. It's a hell filled with jaded, bitter, and angry HS players raging against the small indie company we know and love.
C'mon dude... "The superior community"? Don't you think that's too much? No offense, but your post sounds pretty arrogant and condescending... No forum community is superior to other, just different. What you could see as interesting and smart, others could see as boring and shallow. Different tastes and personalities create different perspectives, that's all.
To be honest, from my point of view, most threads and articles here on Out of Cards are extremely boring, with a considerable amount of posts made by people totally afraid of not being accepted by others. Such a thing creates an unnatural and fictional enviroment hard to digest for those of us who usually prefer honesty over false kindness. But that is just my opinion. The fact you seem to enjoy this forum more than me doesn't make it better or worse than the others, just different, as I said previously.
Everything is relative, always remember that. ;) ;) ;)

I would appreciate an epic mage minion card able to create value.

I did your first one for you as an example.

Then you can put the link or embed the deck in your post.
Just a suggestion

A Weekend of Wild Decks
Sweet! Thanks for featuring my deck. That totem shaman looks quite fun too. Gonna look into that .
Card Nerf - Barnes
Big Priest before Barnes nerf:
- Against aggro: struggles to survive the first turns;
- Against control: has no problem in the first turns, and the deck leads to an unfair late game.
Big Priest after Barnes nerf:
- Against aggro: struggles even more than before to survive the first turns;
- Against control: nothing changes.
Conclusion:

Curses or charms? Why not both?
Next up, a Boomsday legendary spell out of these two best buds.

While I almost play only Wild nowdays, it's always nice to read some good written analysis.
Good job.
Zilliax
You have to consider that it isn't part of the Classic set. So it'll rotate out of Standard at some point without the need to be HoF'ed, while Ragnaros the Firelord and Sylvanas Windrunner (just to name a couples) were originally meant to remain into the format forever. Zilliax is one of the most balanced and flexible card ever printed, being Neutral grants its presence almost everywhere but it still far from being OP or overwhelmingly oppressive like Baku the Mooneater and Genn Greymane were.
Zilliax
Why isn't Zilliax being looked at for a nerf?
I think Hall of Fame was previously created because, among other things, Ragnaros was in nearly every deck, and it "limited design space." Then, they clarified that they only want to do that for Classic cards, not expansion cards.
Zilliax is in every deck, ever. Decks that don't run any mechs still run Zilliax for some heal.

Rotating decks shown on front page
Nope, must be a different fan of Slayers
Savage Even Druid
Not really. That is actually one of the most powerful cards of the deck (and of the whole Druid class tbh).
You can probably try with a Mark of Y'Shaarj and/or Mark of Nature and/or a second Hidden Oasis, but it's not going to be the same.
