You see? If strongman and Ysarjj are used to corrupt ticketus, then it’s probably not that easy to corrupt him, other.
To your list, I would add the 8 mana deathrattle demon, which is pretty good
Really? What do they have that cost 7+ mana to corrupt it?
I use strongman expecially because after you play nether you can put down a free strongman to be able to play ticketus more easily.
It’s also good after you play Ysarrj, so you won’t die
Straza and Galakrond and Soulciologist
Then it wasn’t Tickatus Warlock. That deck 100% runs Strongman and Nether and some lists also ran Galakrond that would corrupt it. Obviously no one wants to use Y’Shaarj to corrupt it, but factually stating it is a card that could corrupt it in a desperate situation.
And your statement that it loses to control decks every time is 100% false. I played a decent amount of Tickatus Lock at the start of the expansion and unless I was against another Tickatus Lock, I won roughly 90% of the time against every other control deck. Your numbers just flat out aren’t true.
Additionally, at 8 mana, you aren’t going to be “filling the board” again the next turn most likely. They drop a couple threats and then you drop an 8/8 and still have 3 or 4 mana left over to do something else. It’s not some huge downside to play it after you Nether.
Any Warlock with Tickatus in it can be Tickatus Warlock, running the Galakrond package is just another way to play it, both have the same end goal with different ways of getting there.
I played TickLock at the start of the expansion too but it isn’t the start of the expansion anymore and all the decks have been refined, guess which one didn’t even make the tier list? ticklock.
I find it hard to think of a control deck that Ticklock has a favourable outcome VS and I can’t think of any. It loses to all types of warrior, druid, mage and even priest has a counter to it. Even for a control deck, it’s just too slow.
New Tickatus Suggestion
Battlecry: Discard 5 Cards
Corrupt: Opponent ALSO Discards 5 Cards
You guys are getting it all wrong. You run free admission alongside felosophy and raise dead so you can corrupt tickatus with cthun parts.
Best result so far was hitting tick off dark portal and milling my opponents entire deck by turn 6.
Alas poor druid
I play a control deck and my win rate against Warlock this season is 75%. There is counterplay to Tickatus, I promise.
Keep your win conditions in your mulligan. Pressure their face. Win. Repeat.
This is part of it but it’s not just slow, it’s also just not a very powerful win condition.
TheBrawler and Henteye… nice trolling guys.
By “milling my opponents entire deck by turn 6”, do you mean “the druid player managed to draw almost its entire deck by turn 6”?
I was thinking about adding cthun too (to corrupt cascade disaster), because ticketus on its own isn’t a win condition (with life tap and valdris, I usually get to fatigue at the same time of my opponent, even with tick + ysarrj)
I wouldn’t call it a “ticklock” but in wild tempostorm meta snapshot the current renolock that is standing up well against the meta is running tickatus.
It’ll probably change though, it’s awkward in wild with voidcaller.
Trolling? Which part, man? I have no reason to lie to you.
I mean I played tickatus 3 times by turn 6 and on my opponents turn 6 they had no deck.
I can’t find the screenshot anymore, I guess I already deleted it, but I posted on discord at the time because I couldn’t believe it.
