Hearthpwn

Hi guys. I'm kirrrbbby AKA keytwo AKA kmclaugh -- former Magic: the Gathering pro turned Hearthstone streamer/grinder.

I'm a big fan of Malylock. The archetype has always been a ton of fun. I played a standard version of the deck to rank 5 in standard (late) last season. It's actually quite solid in the slower midrangey metagame we have currently. You can see that write up here.

This is the wild version of the deck. I suspect it wouldn't fare so well at ranks 5-L, but it's definitely solid enough to grind at lower ranks. So far, playing at 10-15, I'm 13-1 with the deck.

In general, you're playing a value-game, and trying to get in some early chip damage. Your combo is to Emperor discount any two of these pieces: Darkbomb, Soulfire, Malygos. That gives you 17 damage worth of burst.

Mull strat: Keep 1, 2, and 3-drop minions, and the 4-drop dragons. Darkbomb and Coil are fine versus tempo mage and zoo, but they're not great to keep versus freeze mage or reno, so I always mull them. Be stingy with the coin. Use it if you need to, but it's usually fine to just lifetap on turn 2. Unless I have two 4-drops or without a compelling reason, I usually wouldn't coin on t3 either.

Here are my stats so far:

And some VODs from my stream.
