    Leeroy is still a card, and finding a replacement for the second Doomguard involves finding a solid minion in that area. Might see it take on more Zoo-ish characteristics. Hunter wants to finish soon, so it's going to be a fast list, one I'd hesitate to even put Highmane into. Paladin is also going to be a great deck.

    I mean, zoo can still work, just not discard without Doomguard is all imo.

    Why did so many people vote for Barnes? He isn't that game breaking as far as i know.

    LOL

    The HS account tweeted out earlier asking if they should be the Golden Joystick competitive goty (fucking lol), and to vote.

    One of the first replies?

    'Why don't we let Yogg decide?'

    Well played.

    I love this deck so much. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

    Renounce Barnes Y'Shaarj Warlock.

    Some examples:

    Started playing constructed again. Ressurect priest with Bog. And it is working rather well against midrange shaman. 9-5 atm. The one deck that just runs me over is control warrior.

    With the way that deck is built it essentialy has 4 one mana assasinates and any time I actually manage to build a half decent board to try and remove some of the 500 armor they manage to build brawl just wrecks me.

    I'm honestly cinsidering just auto conceding I see any warrior with a golden jpeg

    So I recently made a fatigue Warrior deck with Prince Malchezaar in it and I have to say that I'm having quite a bit of fun. So far, most of my opponents have been the standard zoolock/discardlock and zoo hunter decks. If I get FWA or Doomsayer, then the games are pretty much instantly won.

    Shaman might be a little harder just because they have enough burst to bulldoze through my early clears but not many people were playing them for some reason. Although there was one game where I got real lucky and wiped his whole board with Fool's Bane and Violet Illusionist combo.

    I have no idea how I'd do against mid-range hunters though. Their high-value deathrattles all but shit on all of my clears.

    If you're facing a lot of control, tech in Soggoth and Cairne instead of Bog and Sylv.

    I like rez too. It also gets rolled by hunter though, lol. Shaman owns you if they have hex btw.

    Just had a funny game.

    tl;dr Warlock decided to be a smart dude and summoned a board full of 7 1/1 as you can see, while I had nothing on board... so his max dps was 7 per turn, while I was armored all the fuck up and could just go face on him until it was Grom time. So delicious.

    You should feel filthy.

    At least you're not playing Yogg... I presume...

    Yogg nerfs aren't enough I don't think. I mean, you could astral communion/kill/mill yourself before and people still played it as a comeback. Not sure if that changes much...

    I don't like them nerfing cards like charge either. That interactive bs really annoys me. You have roughly 9 turns to kill otk war, and it's not like the deck is op.

    It's another skill intensive deck gone. Nerfed harder than MalyRogue...

    Thank fuck for Tuskarr nerfs though. Most obnoxious card ever.

    While secret hunters and "fun and interactive" control mages exist? Never!

    Also Yogg in shaman?

    Yog exists as an emergency 'flip the table' button that a sufficiently spell heavy deck can use when shit gets nasty.

    Agreed, almost every time I use him my board is empty and the enemy is 1 or 2 turns off lethal.

    The nerf to Yogg will be enough to discourage consistent play in competitive matches.

    Blizzard's smart to cover their asses by releasing this before Blizzcon. It was going to come down to Yogg in the final match and they would've been fucked.
