Yeah c’thun is neat. But he was only ever relevant in the most vanilla power level expansion and then a little twist with the eyestalks.
Nothing wrong with that. I have a big ginormous minion deck too haha, Taunt warrior with blackrock actually seems more in the game with the greedy double stat combos than just playing lackluster +1/1s buffs to 0 mana +10/10 to +20/20 divine shields.
And it’s even been able to create some crazy games like a time i had a hound hunter get a 20/30 hound with yogg’s 4 spell location, but due to the deck’s ability to massively taunt wall and lifesteal i ended up being able to steal it with yogg and otk him for 80 damage.

For your deck. C’thun is fun and fun to play. I see that you have Guff and astalor. I think for Druid, there actually has been some semi successful past highlander lists that ran astalor + brann for a near otk combo.
Someone else claimed they reached a high wild legend running a reno druid. This is their brew and i imagine it’s not a meta deck so you could try subsitutions.
But if you want to stick to cthun you might run into issues with him just being slow by modern / non twist standards. Or maybe trying to run a twist themed deck in there.
If you’re running guff with cthun/astalor. Brann might be a very powerful/consider worthy option.
I know the greed to stick 40 cards, it’s fun, but you don’t get value out of a combo if you don’t live to play it. And even with my taunt warrior lists i find myself dipping on 30->8 hp quite often even with 14/20 taunts and 11-22 hp lifesteals/ armor steels. And that’s in standards with a limited, but still increasingly ever more powerful standard card pool.
Much less wild where t3 lethal is literally possible.

Notes
If you’re missing cards, it might be worth it to look at subsitutes. aviana probably isn’t a good craft, you might be able to look for good wild dragons or homebrew a bit to replace any missing slots. I think the main combo might just be overwhelming value + druids good dragons. It’s probably expensive so i wouldn’t super craft it. But the person said they got to top 1000 wild legend with it.
If you’re just looking to make your deck no worries. Looks like a fun one. But this is just if you wanted to look at what others found success with, if you wanted to try borrowing inspiration to try pushing it further, maybe inspiration if you happen to share any of the cards, or get inspired by any guff / combos.
Guff combos unironically do have a place in wild and i’ve seen lots of Brann + astalor success stories. But im afraid cthun just seems heavily powercrept, even by their first expansion. If you do want to stick with him and have it though, two eyestalks might be good though.
The Caverns of choose one location for nourish or choose one cards might be powerful as well. But you might want to juggle how much dust you put into homebrewing. I’ve had fun, but dropped experiments can easily eat up 2000-5000 dust → 0 with how stringy hearthstone is on dust at times…
