Hi guys, this is my first deck and i want to share it with you,sorry for my engrish.
This deck was basicly usual monkey deck(with some of my upgrades) but since we dont have to deal with GvG bulls*** and cant use velen, C'Thun looks more than good in this deck.
So basicaly idea looks like this-we are taking control of the board early game with lots of 2 drops, keep it up until its time to use C'Thun and if he fails we always have monkey back up plan.
Lets talk about cards,and what are they doing in this deck:
CORE
So cleric is our main card draw(thoughtsteak and curator are realy great most of the time,but sometimes lady luck gona rekt you), so dont yolo it if you dont have any other good cards in hand(like you draw your cthun and entomb). But sometimes sacrificing cleric to make oponent skip his minion (like coin+frostbolt), and giving u advantage make u easily winning the game(cz u always have more than 1 card to play with 11 2drops).
Wtf is it doing here u ask me? Now weapons are realy big deal and trust me u want to have way to deal with rogue combos,warrior pirates ,facehunters and doomhamer. When u fight against clerics,walrocks,mages,druids you have nice 3/2 2drop to tempo with. (btw u REALY dont want to use it to tempo or agro agains classes with weapon cards,trust me)
God bless standard! No more retarded mechs and muster for battle! But still we will have some big problems vs early agro against zoolock,hunters etc. We have lots of spells, so pyro always be usefull in terms of clearing the board from small pests.
Shadow word: Pain
First and last rule: if you see enemy plays straight for shadow ward in minions face,DONT shadow word it, It usualy means what soon you will have to deal with minion wich deserves it much more.
Beckoner of evil, Cthun's Chosen, Twilight Elder
Chu chu! Here comes the C'Thuns train! No need to save this guys to combo with brann(ofc if you dominating your enemy and have some stuff on board it might be usefull to save them to use with brand battlecry but only in this case). You have some spare mana to play this guys(and dont have thoughtsteal to use?)? Play em. Why not more C'Thun cards? Well actualy you dont need more, idea of this deck is to take control of the board,and then slowly grind ur opponent. Trust me you will never have a chance to one shot enemy hero with single C'thun swing,and if you will have it-it is only because you managed to keep his side of board empty.
Power Word:Shield
No comments.
Keep up the advantage
Holy nova
Sometimes pyro is not enough,sometimes you have to heal your minions. Plus +2 more dmg and heal to the face.
Museum Curator, Thoughtsteal
Some element of randomness in this game. Sometimes this cards win you game, sometimes dump your hand with unplayable stuff. Usualy they just give you something average and usualy average-is more then enough for us.(Dont take expensive minions if you dont have big advantage on the board)
Entomb
Our secret weapon. Nice way to deal with big enemies asholes. Use it ONLY if you MUST to destroy enemy minion RIGHT NOW and have no other way to do it, or activating its deathtrattle means what you gona loose the game(ysera,tirion, deathwing dragonlord,N'Zoth... Giants,hellscream,classic deathwing etc should be killed with shadow word or minions).
Plan B
Twilight Geomancer
Nice 2drop if you ask me. Sometimes you just need to have turn without ur face getting punched and you got nothing good from curator or thoughtsteal. Also taunt on C'Thun makes enemy have to deal with C'thun before to deal with you.
Shadow Madness, Word:death, Brann Bronzebeard
Sometimes plans are going not so well as they should be. This cards gona fix it. Shadow madness gona be a very nasty surprise for your enemy(cz he will never expects it in your deck). Deathword-for some early game surprise for druids and buffers. Brann just good minion to have synergy with(also in late game enemy will ALWAYS have to kill him for obvious reasons.)
Main Guests
Be ready what half of the games you will not even use this guy-his presence in your deck is more than enough cz players gona play like they gona play agains average C'Thun deck,making mistakes and giving you advantage. Play him only in life or death situations(you gona loose or win this or next turn).
Not that bad midgame minions with nice bonus. But remember-if you still have good cards in deck(thoughtsteal,entomb,C'thun) and\or advantage on board using monkey may and will loose ur game. Our main plan is control and C'thun. Monkey is our last chance wich can rekt you realy hard if u just use it like "OMG I GOT MONKEEEEY,LETS PLAY IT RIGHT NOW FOR NO REASON".
PS
So this is it for now. Visual upgrades,main strats and tactics vs classes coming soon,stay tuned.
works well in random but in low ranking it is terrible people are playing scrub decks with a lot taunts. and this deck cant beat that.
Ok first of all i kinda know what this is not best deck eva(cz as you can see,only thing i bought in hs is adventure pack),and it requires some skill and paitince(like give enemy turn to play his best minion,dont use ur cards just to kill random stuff etc...). Now im trying to experiment with other cards. What im sure off is pyro+nova>escavated-evil(cz now having ur minions alive on board is HUGE deal),and yog is very fun but dont do anything most off the time. Now gona tes is with auchenai and herald volazi.
some new tipp maybe? :D
I've lost like a motherfucker with this deck. :( Even on Level 19....
Added some spells and Yog, now my favorite deck lol. So much fun with Yogg
had some super fun games. Admittedly low rank, but very close control games. Thoughtsteal is a suprise treat. TBH the lack of buffs to c'thun in this deck and lack of face damage means I think monkey does a lot of the legwork. Most people refuse to use removal until C'thun appears. I haven't fought any priests, but I think entombs and mind control would shut this deck down fast. If every minion buff is down a turn, C'thun is 20/20 but usually it's less.
I swapped out a pyro for excavated evil. Does a similar job, plus it's great fun against the current zoo meta. this deck doesn't care about the opponents clears, so it becomes a dead card in any aggro deck.
I played this in ranked 14 vs C'Thun Druid.
*super* fun game. I played my C'Thun first, at 14 - cleared his board. He survives a turn, and I get the druid down to 22. He drops Sylvanas.

I still have C'Thun's Chosen and Wild pyro on the board, and he drops a 16/16 C'Thun. Miraculously, My C'Thun *and* Chosen survive, with me at 3 health. He hail-mary's Sylvanas into C'Thun, who still has enough health to survive her. I don't have anything in my hand to burst 4 more damage, so the *only* way I can win is if sylvanas posesses the Chosen - not C'Thun. A coin flip.
RNGsus smiled upon me! Sylvanas grabbed the Chosen, he ended turn, and went proudly and honourably into the Old God's maw.
Good game, Conde. Good game.
I also Entombed his Emperor, which is kind of amazing. 2 Entombs might be enough to not need Emperor.
Very fun deck!
Thanks for deck. On rank 18 is very usefull
As my opinion, I would try out 2x hooded acolyte. They have very good stats, and usually buff Cthun nicely. I would take out the acidic swamp ooze for it. Besides that, this deck is very solid and I am using it quite a bit. Thanks!
Yeah. Definately replace c'thuns chosen. You don't want divine shield 2 health in priest it does nothing for you.
How have you been doing with the deck in ranked? :)
got up from rank 15 to rank 13. Yeah gona change one or two things(first of all this op emperor have to go in).
Emperor goes in instead of what?
Maybe instead of one "shadow word pain"?
And i would try to use Harryson instead of one ooze. May be good.
