Final Update: I will stop playing this deck now because i reached my 500 wins with druid. The deck underperformed the last two days, partly because the hunter matchup went from +80% to actually pretty bad (new secret version since karazhan) and because alot of people seem to be playing the nobrainer-decks (shaman, zoo) which aren't good matchups either. I peaked at rank 2 full stars and finished rank 4. To sum everything up: I enjoyed playing this version of token druid but the other existing versions are more popular for a reason. Thanks everyone, have a great day and bye!

 

I would like to show you my own version of the popular "Token Druid". I cut out alot of the defensive options (taunts) and included even more ways to fill up and/or buff the existing board. With the current version i went from rank 8 to rank 5 and scored 10-1 (91% #hype! xD). Indeed, its just a small sample size but i will try to continue to legend and will update as i go. 

FIRST UPDATE: I just wanted to update you guys after ~50 games with this decklist. After hitting rank 5 i got a huge losing streak but thats pretty much expected after winning alot of games in a row. Im still at rank 5 and got 30 wins and 23 losses - 57,7 % winrate, which is not too bad as you will "only" need ~150 games to get to legend from rank 5 with this winning percentage. For those who are interested in the numbers i highly recommend reading this: https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/2gkz9n/data_on_how_many_games_it_should_take_to_get_to/

Lets talk about the most eye-catching numbers briefly:

34% of games vs Warrior - 61,1% winrate (100% vs Control/C'thun, 50% vs Dragon)

The slower the better. You got time to build up your board and more often than not you can fill it up more often than getting cleared. The faster decks are way more difficult. I also played vs some Pirate/Aggro - not a good matchup.

15% of games vs Hunter - 100%! winrate 8/0! 

You will probably flood the board before turn 8 and then they either have to trade with Call of the Wild (which is bad for them) or they will have to face some kind of combo and die.

15% of games vs Druid - 25% only 2/6 - This matchup shouldn't be too bad but the one who gets his ramp and or flood turn first will probably win. I only won 2 games because i had amazing Yoggs so i was probably pretty unlucky overall - i guess.

Just a handful of games: 28,5 % winrate vs Paladin (Aggro/N'Zoth), 25% against Warlock (Zoo) - either too fast (Aggro/Zoo) or too much board clear.

 

Stats The Real Token

Notable Cards:

Arch-Thief Rafaam (Tech vs Warriors, one more way to fill up the board, i actually played a Sea Giant instead from rank 17 to ~10 because its way better vs Shaman and Zoo)

2x Force of Nature (filling up the board once again)

2x Wisps of the Old Gods (and again, and again... oh, and sometimes buffing it too!)

Picture related: Typical situation vs Warriors. This was a C'Thun Warrior with 2x Brawl and 2x Revenge - not enough board clear anyway with this version of Token Druid!

Farming Warriors - feelsgoodman

And sometimes they got enough - Savjz owning me with Paladin! https://www.twitch.tv/savjz/v/81890229?t=04h36m46s
