I’m convinced the pirate warrior quest would see play even without Rokara as it would still be a 1 mana tutor for Ancharrr and 4 random damage which is still quite powerful.
This is very true, and if you look at something like Questline Hunter it’s very consistent as well. Compared to Reno Priest with the combo, Quest Hunter always has its Raza + Anduin type hero power combo enabler start in hand while most of its deck is interchangeable damage spells.
This is definitely something that would be useful. I personally can’t stand the meta so I haven’t climbed to high legend in a while. In addition, when I do climb to legend, it’s generally with some tier 3 or tier 4 deck so I’m not sure how much replays from that would be useful.
All the tier 1 decks right now, which would be most recommended for climbing, are ones I don’t really enjoy playing.
So I personally don’t think I can do this sort of thing now with it being useful, unless something like a replay of a Reno Paladin (tier 3 / tier 4 deck) against tier 1 decks would be useful.
I’ll keep this idea in mind, maybe somebody else will do it at some point or I will do it next expansion depending on the meta.
I don’t watch streamers but if you’re interested in this type of content maybe there are some high legend streamers who you can watch and who explain their plays?
Yes! That is correct. Nice that you got it so quickly. My clue was going to be

This is a thread to see the interest level in Standard Tournaments on the site.
Here’s how it would work: it wouldn’t be on a particular day, it would last over a month or more. For each match, people would have a week or a few days and they would use one of those time availability website such as https://www.when2meet.com/.
When they have a time that works for both of them, they’d have to login and add each other on the app and hold the match or matches if we do best of 3.
Any conflicts would be handled by screenshot evidence but hopefully people will be honest about who won so there wouldn’t be a need for a staff member to also have availability and spectate those matches.
If you are interested please comment with your server (we would have to do separate ones for NA and EU).
If you have any ideas on tournament format, we would appreciate any feedback.

So maybe once a month articles going through all the top meta decks with some insights into them? Could definitely be worthwhile, I’ll look into it. Thanks for the idea!
Main thing for tournaments is people play on different servers, although we could try having separate tournaments for different servers. I can only organize one for NA personally so I’d have to see if anyone from different servers would be willing to be involved in such a project.
Can you give an example of what kind of Standard meta decks content you like here? For Wild I know FrostyFeet sometimes does articles with top Wild meta decks based on HSreplay data.
Tempostorm meta reports and Vicious Syndicate meta reports exist as well - are there any things different from that sort of content you’d like to see other than just the decks themselves and a few sentences on each one? VS has a ton of stats that people give them to create these meta reports, and Tempostorm has multiple high level players who come up with them. I don’t know if OoC can compete in meta reports at that level so it would probably have to have some kind of twist or unique aspect to be worth doing.
For the fun deck ideas, I will see if it’s possible to organize a competition type event for that.
If you look at some old vicious syndicate data reports handbuff paladin was performing at a tier s level, it just was for a very short period of time as it got 3 of its main cards nerfed in a week or less.
Caverns Below Rogue might be a reason to not revert it though, sure. Not sure if they would actually run it since they seem to run mostly 1 drops and the 2 drop that adds 1/1s to hand to help complete quest easier. If you look at the recent meta list they even cut the 2 mana rush lifesteal minion.
Here’s the thing - that deck also had Hand of A’dal and Conviction nerfed.
Right now handbuff paladin is so rare, you almost never see it at all. In addition, it doesn’t even show up at tier 4 at meta reports and is almost nonexistent on hsreplay stats.
Back when it was overpowered, first of all the overall meta power level was lower and secondly it also had Hand of A’dal and Conviction. Right now, with current power level of the meta and with no Hand of A’dal and no Conviction unnerf, would Crabrider alone make this deck go from almost nonexistent to oppressive?
Back then handbuff paladin was a tier 2 deck in the meta before it got Crabrider and Hand of A’dal and Conviction combined to push it to tier S. Right now handbuff paladin is not tier 2, and will only get Crabrider and not the other cards in this scenario.
Hopefully, this clarifies the reasoning behind calling for a Crabrider unnerf and why it would be different in the current situation than when it was opprsssive.
You can replace Murgur Murgurgle with Cariel Roame or Goody Two-Shields. You can replace Nozdormu the Timeless with Amber Watcher, although Nozdormu is really powerful and you will lose winrate.

Rhok’delar is great but you can always put in something like Dragonbane to save dust.

Yes definitely, he is very strong to put your main combo pieces and Reno Jackson on top. I’d take out Soul Mirror to include him.

Aggro Druid is pretty weak now. It’s not even showing up at tier 4.
I think you may be right about Inner Fire Priest though, that’s the main thing I saw mentioned where it could really be a big problem in.
Maybe it’s better to not unnerf Crabrider just to avoid buffing that deck.
