How to beat blood DK

Can some one explain how to deal with it?

What are you playing with when you’re struggling?

Force him to clear stuff awkwardly then put up a board he can’t remove and punch him in the face.

Put him at ~20 health and make him feel safe, then OTK him with damage from hand.

Play around removal and deal 40 or 50 to the face.

If you are facing a lot of control decks, play ramp Druid. if you are facing a lot of aggro or tempo decks, play control pala. If you are facing a mix of the two, try miracle rogue or aggro mage. I think that’s the best strat to approach the current meta.

Depends on the deck you are playing.

Keep presence on the board to force them to clear but do not overextend, you need to rebuild the board.

Or just burst them down over 2 turns or so.

If you are playing attrition control deck with no win condition - concede.

Aggro, that’s it, it takes time for it to buff up, if you kill it by turn 5 it can’t play the game.

If Blood doesn’t get highroll lucky, it will just fall over to Token Druid, Implock, Imp Curselock, and Pure Paladin. It is also extremely unfavored against Shockspitter Hunter, Big Spell Mage, Ramp Druid (especially CA with maximum greed), Quest Priest, and Mi’da deathrattle Priest.

I also think that Thief Rogue is a good choice against Blood, since it can’t deal with all the value.

Basically, you either aim to close out the game by turn 5/6, or just go maximum greed. Blood is only good against board-based decks that aim to win in the midgame.

When I play Druid they play Patchwerk(7) few times, giving me no outs for win…

When I try to play aggressive they wipe my board few times and win extra hp which they can outstand my aggression

I did try to play quest mage, and only spells to kill them, but since card draw is in wild, it is not that easy, and with thier healing I just cant nuke it down

Blood dk’s counter is quite literally aggro.

Frost dk, shockspitter, and that aggro pally everyone’s using, even token druid beats them if they play it right.

Thanks for imput, I thought I would get new ideas, but I am kinda loosing anyway. Even if I am statistically favored it still pisses me off when loosing

Mini set should be in next week?

Ah you don’t actually care about the counters, you just lost to an rng from patchwork and are venting on the forums because of it. Get rekt.

Hope you keep playing and you consistently get brann patchworked every game.

It’s absolutely true, aggro destroys blood dk.

I remember one regular poster here saying Alterac Valley/Sunken City control Warrior had no chance against aggro.

This is almost as silly.

Out of those decks, only Druid and maybe Paladin are actually aggro. Druid isn’t even remotely favoured. Paladin is because divine shields are op, but Paladin is weak to burn strats, which Blood DK reks.

How is frost dk and shockspitter not aggro?

Bruh. Those are burn decks that kill from hand, not aggro.

Aggro isn’t shorthand for ‘attempts to kill you before turn 10’. Those decks are slower than what is usually defined as aggro by a turn or 2. Especially now they’re both nerfed.

They’re aggressive decks, regardless of how you play them.

Ah yes, let’s change the meaning of the word aggressive to fit your narrative.
