Has anyone managed it yet? I’ve only played a few rune combinations so far, but they seem to drastically underperform against any other class I try to go up against. It’s just way too slow. I’ve only seen a couple of decklists break 50% winrate in researching the class, with most of those relying pretty heavily on neutral cards and requiring numerous expensive legendaries.
I think frost is about as cheap as any budget decks are right now. You probably won’t be able to compete if you try to go blood. There are probably better budget options than frost DK though and that is if you consider dropping like 4k dust even a budget option.
I tend to think missing a few cards matters less in a shorter game, because the likelihood of you drawing through much of your deck is pretty low. With DK being a controlish/mid-rangey type bruiser I think just about every card counts.
I am at a spot where i can try to make deathknoght work bit i have a feeling if ppl havent found something that works yet they arent gonna until buffs or nerfs
It depends on your targets, I always find t3 decks workable for diamond 5. That said I don’t often drop 4k dust into a deck that won’t have absolute success, it’s more often just that I’ve drawn the required cards from packs.
I still haven’t bought the DK preset yet or played any games with it personally, just that on paper it looks kind of okay, very fair.
i only play mine in casual, but it’s just a variation on the frost preset deck, with added cards that i either already had or got from regular gold packs & it’s been fairly consistent for me. the only card in it that i actually crafted was Astalor & that was actually for my standard mage deck
Frost dk the best budget version since it mainly uses dk cards. I think triple blood is the strongest though.
If we get a bunch of nerfs next patch, we should expect DK to become better.
If they also decide to buff a few DK cards…well, it could be scary. Let’s just hope any buffs that come only come in the form of Unholy because Blood DK is already a massive aggro killer and it needs no buffs.
