With the start of the new year of Mammoth "inspired" standart deck probably will be not viable, so i just switch a theme of the deck to something like "Wild N'zoth Reno Quest Priest".
UPDATED: + Nexus-Champion Saraad +Excavated Evil
Saraad is pretty valuable card especially with 0-cost hero power. Just drop it on a table where are no good trades for your opponent or if you have a defender (any taunt probably).
Excavated evil is really good in many matchups, and it's also yours cheapest AoE (didn't include Kazakus' spells ofc). Don't forget to not use if it not REALLY necessary in a very grindy matchups (Reno mage, mirror, some kind of Control Warriors, etc.)
hey man! i love this deck. i cutted off nexus since it seemed i think you have enough value and replaced it with spawn of shadows for a surprise burst if needed. also replaced lightbomb for excavated evil since i dont have it. what do you think about it?
also, what should you be lokking for at mulligan?
yeah, spawn of shadows is good replacement for Saraad as you think you have more than enough value.
Mulligans depends on matchups, vs. hyper aggro like paladins, face shamans (i even see them sometimes), keleset decks you probably don't even need quest, until you have hand full of deathrattles with good mana curve, vs them you need early drops, potion of madness, reno, doomsayer etc.
quest is good vs mid and control decks. After nerfs deck would be better i think in compare to current razakus decks with OTK through velen/mindblast/spawn
This deck is so much fun, watching casino mages trying to get last card for combo when I screamed up to 7 minions in their deck and already found their iceblock. Thanks.
Is there a space for Stalagg and Feugen ?? that makes it more interesting i think :)
it's one of the worst matchups, so i don't see the way to beat mill rogue, may be goldfish like raza 5, dk 8, but this deck more about value, than OTK like other priest decks with velen, and we don't have many cheap spells to activate machine gun.
I don't like both in this type of deck, dr. boom suites more in renolock i guess, where you have more tempo in a form of twilight drake/giant.
Loatheb would be good only if your meta have combo decks like freeze mage/rogues/etc.
if you face a lot of jade druids you can put Geist
or something situational like Stonehill/Museum Curator
Recruiter can be good for providing large burst when Shadowreaper Anduin and Raza the Chained have been played.
On an empty board, Recruiter is a 1 card 14 damage burst play that also gives you five 2/2s.
not bad thought! but negative thing here is that recruiter is probably dead card without shadowreaper with 0-mana heropower, ok, not dead card, but 5/4 for 4 :)
Currently running:
- Mistress of Mixtures, Nexus-Champion Saraad, Power Word: Shield, Obsidian Statue, Gluttonous Ooze
+ Potion of Madness, Thoughtsteal, Stonehill Defender, Museum Curator, Lich King
Lich King is pure vanity because I have a gold one and used to be an Un'goro Elise, though it's nice to finally something you can flip off an opponent's Deathlord and basically win the game rather than lose an important battlecry. I feel Obsidian Statue just costs too much and, thanks to class bonus, you'll be offered it off Defender very frequently.
My win %age against other Reno decks is about 80%, main losses are to RNG nonsense but the deck can usually deal with anything. Not running PW:S makes Shadow Visions a lot more consistent and also is one less card you draw in the mirror, which usually comes down to fatigue. Even Jade Druid is possible now because Shadowreaper gives you late game reach and takes out their board on the turn he comes down. Only auto-loss matches are Mill/combo Rogue and (usually) Exodia Mage, since you struggle to play the aggro deck in those matchups.
Aggro matchups are hit or miss, I don't run Mistress because she's nowhere near as impactful as she should be and dies to Firefly + a single buff for no value. Generally if you're anywhere near parity on turn 6, you just win.
I really want to the new Deathrattle dragon to be good, but I fear including him is too greedy and I wouldn't know what to cut.
I started playing Reno Priest thanks to your original list so I'm grateful you keep updating. :)
thanks for your feedback. I really didn't seen any mill rogues for years) After hundreds of games i decided to cut thoughsteal, just because it has no tempo att all vs aggro decks and vs control decks it's too random and not worth even 3 mana often.
Potion of madness i use too in current list, thanks for remind me to update it :)
Stonehill is good versatile card, but i love combo that i can do with 0-mana heropower+shadowreaper+saraad, so i don't want to cut saraad)
power word shield is strong cycle that gives you board advantage, so i strongly suggest to don't cut it.
as i said on ranks 5+ and legend there are much less pirates than on a lower ranks. But deck is not really bad vs aggro
LK?
do you mean Lich King? Yeah, he's great, but i dunno what to cut now
ye i meant Lich King looking at the list its really hard to get him into the deck thoughtsteal is really fun but so far i just see this is the card to lose for him
i'll try him when ill get him :) if you can test deck with him - leave your feedback, ill appreciate it
last seasons played more at 5+ ranks and legend, before 5th rank i prefer more fast decks
New list only has 8 deathrattles total + whatever you get off Museum guy, not including N'zoth & potions. Are you finding it hard to complete the quest sometimes?
Nope, really. Vs aggro decks (druids, warriors, shamans sometimes) we don't need even to keep quest, so vs more slow decks we have enough time to complete quest. Often i found more deathrattle minions from opponent's deck via thoughtsteal, shade and oracle.
