Unique Strategy? What's the point?

Something clicked with me last night.
Everyone knows that Handbuff Paladin is toxic. Winning with the stupidest neutral card in core set cough leeroy whatever jenkins cough… Why don’t we all just run him?

That’s what I am going to do. It’s like… why should I look for strategy’s to win in Warlock for example when I can just combo Leeroy for 24 damage LOL an end the game? In my favorite class this is easy… I even built a deck to showcase after dunking on 2 cringeknights in casual with it.

Paladin can run him, DKs can, Warlocks can, Rogues can, legit everyone under the sun can toss this win con into there decks. Sooo… what exactly are we doing Hearthstone?

Why should I play anything other than my leeroy combo deck? This neutral card might be something that isn’t nerfed but ends up kicked out of standard core. It’s that badly designed.

EDIT: Had to log back into HS to copy my deck for those that might want to see what I built in 5 mins to use Leeroy in Warlock.
(Deck works fine enough for the combo, super easy to get to turn 10).

To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone

Combo is super easy mode. Leeroy into Monstrous Form x2 an x1 copy Reverberations boom you win the game.

This thread gave me inspiration to try a hagatha / shudderwock / wish upon a star / leeroy/shroomscavate deck and while I only managed it once out of 6 games; against a brann warrior… which is probably the only deck slow enough to allow 3 turns of doing nothing … it validated your leeroy in any deck thesis if in the spirit of fun rather than competitive spirit.
