Not a single DK deck in top 10 Archetypes

Title says it all. There isn’t a single DK deck in the top 10 decks, or even the top 10 archetypes for that matter. Source: metastats

Death Knight release really is the reverse Demon Hunter release. Demon Hunter dunked all other archetypes and took several nerfs in the first two days, still staying on top. DK is fodder for every other top archetype and is not likely to receive any buffs.

I want to know if anybody managed to climb from DIA to top 500 Legend using DK, what are your experiences?

I’m d8 with Blood DK…but yes it’s really weak stm

Well, I spent 3 hours trying to push DK from diamond 1 to Legendary, and I succesfully pushed it to diamond 3 with a 45% winrate. Fun.

That is literally the only way to climb with blood DK, to brute force your way to the climb, I have no idea how you have the mental strenght to do that cause 1 game against druid and I already feel like playing marvel snap lmao

Yeah eventually I gave up and switched to ramp druid, but honestly I think I need to stop playing and wait for nerfs. Until Blizzard kills Fel DH, Ramp Druid and Arcane hunter the meta is absolute cancer. We wanted a slow control meta, centered around value and outplaying your opponent. Instead we have a boardless meta of insane handburn from turn 1 to 7, and if you survive ramp druid wins.

Most of the time you know, whether you will win or loose by turn 3, and then its just following the steps to conclusion.

I get a 60%+ win rate with tempo frost dk. I beat pretty much any deck except for druid and sometimes hunter.

Because somebody had the bright idea to let druid be able to ramp up… gain about 300 armor and deal 300 damage in 1 turn.

Why idk but they need to nerf that bs.

Are you in legend already? I head 65% on blood too until around diamond 5, gradually dropping to 45% till Diamond 1.

I was at rank 1 but i got knocked down to 3 because all i get is druids

Update: I god damn did it! Rank 1714 Legend (I know, trash, but still), achieved with Blood DK. Switched away from Ramp druid, because everybody is trying to counter ramp druid rn. Ironically, Blood DK is kinda good vs decks that try to counter Ramp druid.

Beat a Ramp druid myself for my Legendary placement game, after he played Guff and Celestial alignment on curve, because I somehow lucked into the most tempo draw you can have as Blood and he did not draw his combo right away.

Fazit: Nerf Ramp druid into Oblivion (and Shockspitter too) and the Meta will propably recover.
