[Day 1] DoD - Quest to Unleash the Tempest

- Wild
- Ranked
Day 1 - First thoughts:
So Far: 5-0 with this deck
Faceless Corruptor is broken (save you extra copies of this one lads. This card is going to get nerfed. 10/8 in stats on T5 is ridiculous. If your opponent leaves a single minion on the board for you on T4, the game is over)
Dragonmaw Poacher is going to make this a Big Game Hunter meta
Nithogg is probably going to receive the axe very quickly. If the eggs hatched normally as well if broken by the opponent, it would be good. But I played him in both my games (with double battlecry) and not a single egg hatched. UPDATE: I finally had eggs hatch, and it was game ending. If your opponent can't clear the eggs, you basically win. Plus he is a good Mutate target.
Dragon's Pack is very powerful, but so far, I think it's good at running only 1 copy.
Mutate continues to be problematic. There are more good targets for it now too. Try and hit: Mogu Fleshshaper (obviously), Nithogg or Corrupt Elementalist
Changes:
Made some changes due to interest in the deck and people's suggestions.
Removed: Invocation of Frost, Devoted Maniac and Shield of Galakrond
Reason: Corrupt Elementalist should give us enough Invoke. Will test and see if more is needed.
Added: Faceless Corruptor, Dragonmaw Poacher and Lifedrinker
Reason: Faceless Corruptor should be really power in this deck with lots of token targets. Dragonmaw Poacher will be useful for early meta that is full of everyone playing with their new dragons. Lifedrinker to add healing and one of the main damage dealers for quest shaman.
Removed: 1x Dragon's Pack
Added: Bloodlust
Reason: This deck NEEDS Bloodlust. 2x Dragon's Pack seems too slow. 2nd Dragon's Pack will probably be swapped for 2nd Bloodlust. But I want to play with Dragon's Pack first because it looks like a fun card.
Other Cards Being Watched for Possible Changes:
Sandstorm Elemental - I'm thinking this might not be needed. Might be better to have more Lackey generation with EVIL Cable Rat
Questing Explorer - while an amazing early game play while completing the quest. It's a dead vanilla stat minion in the late game. If card draw is an issue, I will replace this with Novice Engineer
Mutate + Mogu Fleshshaper - cheating out an 8 mana minion is always a powerful play. With this combo on Blizzard's "watch" list, this could be out last chance to abuse this combo. Need to watch and see how the power of this combo plays out in the new DoD meta.
Nithogg - I'm not expecting great things from this card, but it's a new Legendary that needs to be tested. This very well could turn into the 2nd Bloodlust. If you don't unpack Nithogg, don't craft him. There are plenty of cards that will work as replacements.
Possible Additions:
Vessina - 2 card 5 mana combo that is better than Bloodlust. Storm's Wrath + Vessina = Bloodlust for 2 turns + 1 Health on your minions. This might be better than a 2nd Bloodlust.

Yeah definitely a card I wanted for find a slot for. Will probably add it in at some point during my testing
with this deck i just realized how good Shudderwock is in this deck
Definitely some potential for some ridiculous Shudderwock turns
