The Best March of the Lich King Standard Decks to Play After Last Week's Nerf Patch

We're heading into the second week of March of the Lich King and with the recent balance patch, despite the frosty atmosphere, things have been heating up! If you've been feeling a bit overwhelmed by what decks you should play, we've got a round of decks that are currently trending at the top that we think you should dive right into. Below you will find deck lists and our mulligan recommendations to get things started right.

Remember that crafting cards early on in an expansion, or right after a balance patch, isn't advised (unless they are clearly overpowered and you think they will be nerfed) so if you're missing any cards, considering waiting for the meta to smooth out a bit before busting out your arcane dust.

Blood Death Knight

Mulligan for Astalor Bloodsworn, Chillfallen Baron, Noxious Cadaver, [Hearthstone Card (Heartstrike) Not Found].
