    Which cards seem to be the weakest performers when you play it? Maybe cut Thaurissan since LPG is a much stronger effect. If you do include LPG you might want to revamp the deck to include more minions in general and the minion that makes it cost 0 or casts the highest cost spell in your hand.

    This is pretty cool, have you considered adding in a Luna's Pocket Galaxy and Potion of Illusion? You can set Mordresh Fire Eye to 1 mana and do a 40 damage to all enemies combo where you do Brann into 1 mana Modresh into Potion of Illusion into another Modresh. This works even if Brann is fully cost but Mordresh was set to 1 mana. Similar type of combo with Janalai and you can add in the deal 8 damage or restore 8 health Alexstrasza to do a 32 damage otk with her too. Just something to consider, I think pocket galaxy is fun and it can lead to some very powerful swing turns and otks against control decks that manage to clear your board all the time.

    Consider adding Edwin Vancleef to this deck.

    Here is an idea I had that can be fun to do if you like a lot of decks but many of them aren't viable in ranked. Take a group of decks according to some theme, a number divisible by 2, so something like 8, 16, 32, or even 64 would work well. Try to not have any deck with overly high power compared to the rest of them, so the result is unpredictable. Then make a tournament bracket (good site I found to do it easily is https://challonge.com/tournament/bracket_generator but can just do it on paper too).

    Finally, you can do it with ingame hs friends where for each deck matchup you would do a friend challenge (they can borrow your decks if only one person has them) and play 3 games. You can switch the person playing each deck once too. The deck that wins best out of 3 (or you can set it up to be best out of 1, out of 5, whatever you prefer) moves on to the next round.

    You can keep doing this until you get the final winner. For me this type of thing is very enjoyable (the suspense of which deck will move on to the next round and being able to play a huge variety of decks against others of a similar power level and not worry so much about the meta) but I only had the idea to do it yesterday, so I wanted to share the general idea in case anyone wants to try.

     

    Here is an example bracket for the first tournament I'm doing (theme is off meta ones, specifically ones on the weaker side of things and/or very rarely seen).

     

    After that I'm planning to do a tournament of 32 reno decks from all different classes for some kind of ultimate reno deck showdown.

     

    Overall, lots of options and you can set it up however you want. Maybe do a tournament of decks from just one class or using only cards from certain expansions, many possibilities.

    That’s exactly what I do too, I often concede against questlocks to get to lower mmr and at some point you face a wide variety of different decks. Back in Barrens meta I was literally getting above 50% winrates even in diamond with a huge variety of decks such as Gahz’Reno hunter, but that’s just not possible now.

    Wow, it’s cool you notice how old decks are updated! C’Thun Shaman is the first deck I ever posted on this site over a year ago so it will always be special to me. Guide itself isn’t as good as newer decks but the decklist should be a lot better than the original version.
