My thought that Cho'Gall might see some play didn't really pan out, I guess there just isn't enough room for him in the Reno variants since they can only have one copy of spells and with him you sort of want to ensure you have a spell in hand. And obviously zoo doesn't want him. Maybe in a later expansion if they create some good warlock spells."With all the strongest death rattle minions cycling out, that card isn't great."
"Yeah that shit is too slow and weak. "
"It will be hard for any of the other Old Gods to surpass C'Thun especially if they are costing 10."
Perfectly predicted:So how did everybody's predictions go? Any surprises?
I know how this forum was a little divisive on N'Zoth, some thinking he was a little too slow.
However wasnt very bullish on him in other class decks, but this was also before seeing hunter getting more deathrattles, too.I'll definitely play N'zoth in a super slow Paladin deck with Sylvanas/Tirion. That shit is insane.
Im surprised at lack of Cho'Gull in Renolock still.Won't make many other decks unless some really good deathrattle shit comes out, which doesn't seem to be the case.
Aggro shaman (with flamewreathed) is still an objectively better list than Xixo's fusion list. Flamewreathed IS the second coming, and is definitely more op than thing from below.Perfectly predicted:

Most predictions will be off since we didnt know most of the set as they were being released.
I also like how one of the more popular shaman decks (xixo's) cut flamewreathed, just as I expected, while Grumpy Cat was calling it the 2nd coming.
The more OP card is Thing From Below for the shaman lists.
Is this where I say "I told you so."?Aggro shaman (with flamewreathed) is still an objectively better list than Xixo's fusion list. Flamewreathed IS the second coming, and is definitely more op than thing from below.
I have to agree with Gavin on this one. Shammy is so powerful now that you can go in different directions and still have success. Flamewreathed is still incredibly powerful even if some don't want to risk possible tempo loss from rng.Aggro shaman (with flamewreathed) is still an objectively better list than Xixo's fusion list.

I've been working on Gold priest...I drove it down to rank 4, fell back to 8 with different builds...It is viable, but really Meta/matchup dependent.I admit to being surprised by how viable C'thun decks are, but at the same time every single class has a better option than him for the C'thun playstyle. Only one I'm not sure about is priest, but the jury is still out on priest in general.
Yeah, totally agree. I'm not really running many deathrattles either...Just the standard ones + speakers...The deck really misses belchers.I think Druid's best deck is C'Thun atm. Priest has a better N'Zoth deck imo.
9 Wins just now with 155 gold. Fucking hell!!!! I got 155 gold and a regular Shadowstep and some dust for 9 wins. I swear 9 wins is the absolute worst number to get. I get way more gold for 8 wins and there are plenty of 7 win runs that give 170ish now. Fuckin hell. Blizzard is so bad at numbers.This is some stuff I had from early 2014, like January through May
I'm having a lot of luck with this deck too. Just lost to an Aggro Shaman but it's 5-1 so far.Hey, this deck has been tearing it up for me. Already rank 3 before mid-Season. Deck is great. Has enough burst from hand to win in tight situations, but it's really good at fighting for board control. I win against Shaman most of the time. Zoo is a little harder.
Rogue has been favorable unless you're stuck dropping Highmane into Sap.
The new tempo warrior with Varian and shit has been toughest match so far. They fight for board pretty hard too, making it more difficult.
I haven't played many N'Zoth paladins or C'Thun decks, could be a problem, not sure.
Sad to say that this deck usually wins before N'Zoth can be played. In fact I usually never even draw him. The 2x Call of the Wild has been rocking it.
Kodo has been great for destroying that 2/6 warrior taunt minion.
The grub is great for getting board control, hard to kill 5 health minion at 3 mana. Works well with Leokk or Houndmaster too.
I got the new board wipe beast. Went from winning next turn to hoping for a Kill Command and losing. Fucking rng game.jeweled scarab twice in a row from ram wrangler, it's like getting punched in the dick twice.
