Blizzard why did you single handedly kill every lategame deck? every endgame into vs Warlock is just non interactive stall until you die, staring at your opponent playing 5 boardclears in a row OR play aggro to kill before turn 8
thats it. thats the meta. kill warlock or be killed by stall.

Warlockâs a serious outlier in terms of feel bad right now.
Easy 200 legend with Warlock
Not the one youâre talking about, though
Thatâs the weaker one xD
DK destroys Warlock. Helya is broken garbage.

nah it isnt at all unless you destroy your deck like a warlock does
helya is nothing to worry about
Wah. Your Rock beat my Scissors. They must immediately nerf rock away. But what about the Paper? Now they have to nerf your precious scissors to appease the crying Paper and then Rock will cry so the Paper gets nerf and we are back where we started.

Not that I disagree with your thought process but HS isnât supposed to be a Rock Paper Scissors game otherwise thereâd be no point in actually playing the game itâd just be a concede simulator the moment youâre matched into the unfavorable matchup. Aggro decks should struggle vs heavy control decks but shouldnât instalose. Heavy control decks should have a hard time vs OTK decks but shouldnât lose just by existing. Thatâs the problem with âinstawinâ cards and they have no place in the game.
Once another round of nerfs comes if Wheel of death isnât touched then thatâs going to dominate the meta and weâre stuck with this card for a year. Fix the problem now not later

It will not xD The deck has weaknesses
Itâs almost as if it plays every 2 turns instead of every turn
It has weak early game which has to be exploited by aggro decks most of the times, and even control/combo decks should hold their ground against it, provided that they draw their stuff efficiently, which is more than possible because they donât have a lot of threats you have to deal with
Pretty much every control deck should have more than enough removal for their periodic summons of big blocks of stats
Can i interest you in a class called Mage. Itâs where you play a deck and donât really have to care about the board all that much and you can just apply burn to face. You can also do this with hunter and DK but through other means. Warlock is not a boogeyman in this meta and it can be beaten.

But can it be beaten by any old pile of mismatched homebrew garbage. If I canât win with the deck my cat made when he fell asleep on my keyboard then the game is not balanced.

Sorry but no. On the upside the deck you build on every 2 Wed of the month during a leap year will mean that you have an outside chance to win.

Because fatigue decks are an abomination and should be killed.

I canât believe the irony of your statement is lost on you. Iâm going to pause to let it sink in.

By fatigue decks here I mean the midwit homebrew plan of never actually trying to win the game and just trying to make games last as long as possible.
Get used to it because when the inevitable DH nerf comes you will see the rise of your Wheel Warlock lords.

Lol. Plague DK cannot kill turn 5/6 1-2x 15/15.

You wish. Did you know then can shuffle a bunch of their âSymphonyâ cards after you play Helya with some plagues⌠after they play the Wheel? Oh, and if you havenât destroyed their weapon, they get healed instead.
Thatâs why I keep saying that things like the current aggro DH are some of the best things that could have happened to the meta in general.
If some reasonable aggro/tempo is gone, welcome to the world of Rainbow Mage vs Boom-Boom Warrior vs Wheel Warlock â what a âhealthyâ bunch of ârock-paper-scissorsâ , with the likes of Zarimi Priest somewhere on top.
âLolâ on you. Pure Plague DK isnât playable now, however, most top âRainbowâ DK lists, which do include removals for that case, run Helya and some plagues.
Not that itâs a great match-up for DK anyway â those plagues are not a panacea.

The reasonable aggro deck you are imagining isnât DH.
DH is popular because of the lack of counter. Itâs a control/tempo/aggro deck that can highroll to unimaginable heights and beat any deck in the format.
Itâs an outlier and should get nerfed. Then rock - paper - scissors meta commences and counters are allowed.
Play the 3 mana 2/4 poison, use the 4 gnomes, win, You can run in your deck , easy turn 6 or five using coin

Thatâs just not true â far from it.
Itâs not at all favoured against Warriors of different kinds, Druids, has a roughly even match-up with the DK, and the list is far from complete (a bit uncertain about that Priest). Itâs good mostly against decks like the subject, and thatâs it.
Dunno what else to say⌠Try playing it, see you at #1 Legend if itâs true.
