This deck has absolutely no weakness right now and is steamrolling the meta.
It feels so hopeless to play just about any other deck atm and that’s not good for a brand new expansion.
Swift nerfs are needed targeting the 1 drop 1/3, location, and card draw spells.
That still go to ungoro pirate warrior.
You know…
Turn 4 kills.
Un’goro pirate warrior vs Imp Warlock - Implock would destroy it.
I dont agree while i have no love for aggro decks and Imps in general nothing tops day 1 Demon Hunter or Undertaker Hunter.
If you pit those decks against one another, Implock would still beat them. A strong deck 6 years ago isn’t a strong deck today.
Actually it would still die turn 5.
The thing imp warlock punishes most is not play a 1 drop.
If you do that then you’re 50% in your way to win the match. Nowadays players are just too easy to impress.
You’re just wanting to argue for arguments sake. Have a good day.
Strongest was the pirate warrior. consistently turn 5 lethal
Unlike what you said Imp Warlock has counters,Day 1 Demon Hunter did not it had all matchups in the green the only 50%was a mirror.
You cant compare it, Imps are indeed pushing a bunch of decks out the meta but you can beat them.
No one could beat Demon Hunter on release thats why it got countless nerfs.
1 or 2 nerfs will be enouth for the Imps.
Not really.
My Record against the deck is around 70% winrate.
You don’t float mana and get sure to atleast clear the small ones.
The big that alives isn’t powerful enough to win a race alone.
You’re a liar and you know it. The data is showing around 60% of games involve an Imp Warlock with an average winrate at Gold 10 or above of 59%.
Because it isn’t a weak deck and will be nerf.
Still not the damm strongest aggro deck in the game history.
It being overpowered or being the damm strongest deck to ever live are two very different arguments.
Still…
People need advice to survive it while it isn’t.
Nah, mage is ridiculous right now. With clear, control, and utilization on card discoveries and draws. It needs fixing.
Mage has a 40% winrate vs Imp Warlock and 51% overall - it’s clearly not the deck to be worried about.
As you disregard everything else stated. Yawn. Next.
A 51% winrate deck doesn’t need fixing just because you don’t know how to play against it. A 60% winrate deck on the other hand needs fixing.
I know it hurts to think but try.
Not even Wild pirate warrior can be compared with this, 2 manas draw 7 cards, if you deal with the early agression then they play 4 manas x3 3/3 and refill board in turn 6 with the legendary, fail once for one turn clearing the board and they have permanent bloodlust with legs.
Never fail to refill board and hand from the start to end the game what most of the time is very short.
It is the best aggro deck in history without any doubt.
Yeah it’s pretty nuts. People are comparing it to previous aggro decks in older metas which I don’t think is fair. Decks have only gotten stronger and I’m making the comparison based on decks overall - not in the context of their metas. Most of the time aggro decks suffer a drawback in exchange for being aggressive. Either they start falling off late, can’t keep up in cards, lack value, etc. Imp Warlock completely wipes out any weakness previous aggro decks had. The strongest 1 drop in the game, the strongest card draw in the game, and the strongest location in the game. Compare the location to the hunter one. Often times Warlock is buffing something at least +5+5 or more, Hunter gets +2 attack and rush if its a beast. Not even on the same power level in the slightest.
69.8% winrate against Imp Warlocks with Aggro Druid (which happens to be the exact same overall winrate with the deck, have I actually just played against Warlocks?!? XD) It’s an annoying af deck (I get crushed by it with every except this Druid and Naga Priest), but it has nothing on Patches Pirate. That thing was cancerous af… and I enjoyed playing every second of it haha. A lot saying turn 5 but you could push turn 4 and some were just smart enough to concede straight Patches popped on the board and smacked face (he had charge back then)
