Can _________ work in this meta?

Inspired by another poster…
Please list a deck type that you wonder if it can work in this meta. (50%WR at D5 as a gauge)

e.g. Control Priest, Handlock, etc

add in any decklist to inquire or suggest.

If stealth Rogue was ever gonna be a thing, now is the time with neutral windfury + cold blood lol.

I was sad because the deck I wanted to play most this xpac was a “mysterious stranger” rogue with maestra and neutral discovers :P. I’m a burgle rogue specialist even if itll never be good especially not now lol.

I opened a Golden Maestra.

So I get Golden Heroes from other classes.

Nobody ever expects Golden Maestra.

Can u try buff priest? Idea is simple, just buff low cost minions to high values so opponent cant remove them, generate more buffs with sethek and finish off with battlemaster.
My first attempt:
Buff Priest

Thanks.

I find this Trampling Rhino OTK deck does fairly decent in this meta. It would be fun to hear some other thoughts on it.

I was thinking about creating a Elwynn boar deck for you to try with druid, but I am not comfortable with creating druid decks and I don’t have the cards I think would make it work. However, I would like to try a druid version of the deck down the road. Druid decks seem to have a possibility with their card draw, summon copies/adding copies to hand and giving minions taunt.

Anyone else try rat king decks? This list felt pretty fun and decent. Win conditions are like:

-Wolpertinger + scavenging hyena + devouring swarm gives you a bunch of wolpertingers and a buffed hyena.

-Wolpertinger & dire frenzy; overwhelming them with cheap 4/4’s.

-GIANT RATS!

I actually already do have a Elwynn deck made, and I’m always willing to ‘bounce’ ideals off each other, before a deck is given to me or if they wish to change any of my decks. But Boar Druid for standard really is hard to pull off and in wild, even harder.

^ note I really didn’t win this with the sword, the Warlock basically left, guess they felt bad I was playing a meme deck.

No matter what I play in standard the WR% is 40-50%. Even when I net deck a deck off HSreply that apparently wins 63% of the time.

Been playing since Jade Druid times and never had this problem. Meeting a variety of decks, only perhaps 10% warlock and mage.

Just cause a Deck has a high win rate, doesn’t mean it’ll reflect on you perfectly, also same thing with ‘bad decks’ it’s best to find a deck that you feel better playing at as you’ll make better plays knowing the limits of your deck perfectly with it pro and cons. And then when you face meta deck you can get a better options on how to play around them.

Truly the king of the “Wow” metagame, surely. 100% forces an emote.

the problem with maestra in this meta is that basically every mulligan is the same as it´s either combodecks that doesn´t care about their opponent or a flavour of aggro.

Here is a rough draft of a Deathrattle/weapon hybrid Rogue I was cooking up. The idea is to utilize counterfeit blade to proc both deathrattles and steeldancer. I tried to limit the deathrattles for max tempo using eggs and Lillian “always huffer” Voss (who said charge was dead? :P)

I’m trying to figure out what can be swapped and what to swap for. My first instinct is to trade the broomstick for either a battlemaster or another 3 drop maybe. I like steeldancer, but I’m not sure if it’s better to lean into the stealth route a bit more instead.

Getting close to a real deck. You could go for a battlemaster, but Lady Prestor makes for some interesting late game options if you dont kill someone by the time she comes down :stuck_out_tongue:
