Got top 50 legend with it this season, considered best deck right now. Will do full guide with 50 up vote
Win condition- out value opponent and flood them
The Dragon synergy cards are full of value such as twilight guardian and blackwing corrupter. You want to use cards like fiery war axe, alex's champion, blood to ichor to get value trades in early game, then continue to push for your lead with the mid game dragons like blackwing corrupter, azure drake twilight guardian, and end strong by putting out big threats such as Deathwing, Rag, or Drakonid Crusher. Although this is the ideal game plan some games will require to lose board control and go for face. Knowing when to go face vs for board is crucial.
You want to look for N'zoth's first mate, Finley, axe, faerie dragon, axe and such. The dream is Coin Alex's champ, into alex's champ into frothing. Blood to ichor is fine to keep if you against classes like shaman and mage who are likely to play a 1 3 one drop where u can end up trading and getting a 2 1 slime.
Tips
Against zoo u really want axe and ghoul, and board control is the most important. Know that if you are against a patron/Giant deck and they play patron you will most likely lose so try and keep their card draw (Pain of Acolyte) to a minimum and go face to pressure them. Make sure not to trade so you are left with 1 or 2 health creatures against shaman due to their storm. Lastly don't save your grommash for a slam or ichor, if you have no other play on 8 or could use that charge to clear an azure drake go for it cuz most time they will still have trouble clearing the 10 5 left.
I got inspiration from Sjow XDto be continued...
u can if u want but u do get the +3 value half the times and it costs 1 less so up to u
Just hit legend for the first time with this deck. The only change I've made was -1 [card]Blood To Ichor[/card] +1 Revenge which won me a lot of games against aggro decks which I previously lost.
Im missing Ragnaros and Grommash. Went for Gorehowl over Grommash. I'm running a moat lurker instead of Rag for fun Sylvanus plays. What else could replace Ragnaros though? Ive trailed Deathwing Dragonlord, and I'm considering Nefarian.
kind of hard to replace rag cuz it is such a good card that makes in immediate impact on the board and u need that sniper rag sometimes to hit face
Are you still playing this on the meta with the Karazhan release?
I've added Revenge to replace Slam just as an added AOE burst versus Shaman and Warlock.
I was actually running Spellbreaker as well which absolutely catches people off guard when you silence Ragnaros.
I got to rank 1 last month with Dragon Warrior and have been sitting at rank 3-4 so far this month. How are you finding running Sylvanas in the deck? Where are you finding her most useful?
i'm still having success in Karazhan and sylvanas can make the opponent do unfavorable trades like trading in a 3 2 and a 4 2 into it
I'm guessing you are talking about resurrect priest and it is a match up where u just clear everything they put down or go full face, i would say dragon warrior is slightly unfavored.
Great version - had a couple excellent win streaks last night after falling back to 19 using my Beast Druid.
Ended the night at 14 with 3 stars.
Thanks q8en!
ps Sylvanas is also great for coaxing out Hex's, Entombs and such often leaving them with no option for Gromash and Deathwing...
I take it you run Sylvanas Windrunner over Malkorok for better chances against C'Thun/Control decks? Cool idea!
Hey man so explain why nzoths first mate would be better than a fierce monkey or something? Thanks for this different version
nzoth can give you a turn 1 play, also can be an active for execute or even use it to kill low minions (mostly zoo, fiery bat etc.)
I guess any other big dragon, but Deathwing has won me quite a bit of games.
Ysera is good repleacement?
