Help with Embiggen Druid

Any decks with high win rate against it?

surprisingly, Highlander Mage has about an even winrate against the deck. this will be a better matchup with further refinement and the addition of new adventure cards.

if Embiggen and Token druid remain meta forces then i believe Highlander Mage will actually have a much stronger presence in the meta. :slight_smile:!

Murloc Paladin is the best matchup; and in general murlocs are good vs it. Mech Paladin has a good winrate; oftentime Druid can’t deal with a gigantic mech. Mech hunter should also be good.

For slower decks; quest res priest and holy wrath Paladin are positive vs it.

Thank u for the replies, guess i’m gonna test priest and see what happens

Murloc paladin is the biggest counter

Token druid and any form of fast hunter works well against embiggen.

Token Druid has a 47.5% windage Vs the most popular iteration of Embiggen Druid and the only hunter deck without a winrate below 50% is Mech Hunter with a winrate of 50%.

Pure Paladin, Mech Paladin, Murloc Paladin, Quest Priest, Resurrect Priest all have good winrates Vs Embiggen Drui, With quest resurrect Priest and Murloc Paladin being the biggest counters

Where did you get your stats from? Embiggen druid doesnt do very well against very aggressive aggro like token druid because embiggen druids effect only really takes effect about mid game, turn 5-6 which it’ll be dead by then to any good aggro.

Hsreplay, it’s the most reliable source. Token Druid isn’t aggressive enough and hunter can’t kill anything with the slightest bit of sustain and/or taunts. The average game of both decks is embiggen favored, unless said “aggressive” deck draws far above average. Murloc Paladin is the only aggressive deck favored against Embiggen Druid

Token druid not aggressive enough? Wat. It kills by turn 5, hunter generally kills by turn 6. Murloc pally doesn’t kill any faster than those. I need to see those stats because I call bs.

Yeah on turn 3 you know they’re going to drop a ferocious howl for an extra 7 armor. Drop the simple side quest to complete.

So if they aren’t dead by turn 6 the Emerald Drake and the etc etc etc taunts coming and free minion pulls.

Druid suddenly King of the Hill on HSreplay.

Out of Cards is also saying the same thing. Neither Token Druid nor Face Hunter are good against Embiggen.

Highlander Hunter on the other hand has an edge in the matchup thanks to strong performance by Dragonbane, Veranus, and secrets against the “can’t be targeted” minions.

Well that has certainly not been my experience as embiggen druid and I have done very well against other embiggen druids with token druid and general aggro. Id like to see what kind of embiggen deck you’re talking about that does well against aggro.

You wouldn’t be the first to beat the odds.

That’s all assuming you are filtering out your experiences prior to the updated list, and of the similar but much worse performing Wall Druid.

This deck is so cancer. So the counter is bomb hunter and build the mech of all mechs?

Just run shield breaker if the druid puts down taunts. Its not that hard.

Playing token druid I lose more than I win vs embiggen druid :[ SOOO many people are running it right now I’m going to swap to a counter. Maybe try murloc paladin lol

No one is going to run a 2 mana 2/1 just for that. Have you honestly seen anyone play that ever? I haven’t.

Why wouldnt you? It fits perfectly into an aggro deck with how cheap it is and it can target winged guardian and evasive drakanoid both of which you’d have trouble with as token druid or other aggro, besides that its just as good for any beefed up taunt that embiggen druid throws at you because itl reset the stats aswell as silencing the taunt aspect. You hardly would care about it being a 2/1 in this case.

Dont want to use it your loss buddy, guess its easier for you to cry in the forums than counter the deck.
