Which class offers the fastest games?

I’m looking to switch to a class that offers quick games next expansion. Which class has offered the fastest games currently and historically?

It depends. Yesterday I had some really fast matches while playing Paladin.

All the time I have seen warrior portrait I conceded so < 1 min per game. Sounds kinda fast to me.

Well, murloc shaman (and i mean FULL murloc shaman, not this overload likkim thunderhead crap) is hella fast. Unless against a warrior, in which case just concede and thus even faster!

Mech Paladin, Mech Hunter, and Token Druid are all slower.

Also next expansion, murloc shaman will likely run the plague and the 3 mana 3/3 deal 3 damage (even tho not a murloc, cuz its just that good). So i expect them to not go away.

Howevwr5, “1 health paladin” might be even faster. That’s yet to be seen.

Currently it’s Priest. Queue up, do the mulligan, realize you have nothing even close to being on par with Dr Boom or Conjurer’s Call, concede, repeat.

I love facing those decks with Rez Priest in standard. They give me plenty of time to put my big minions in play and set up for the end game.

Historically, I think Hunter is the class that has had the fastest games. The hero power encourages aggressive play, as does many of their spells and minions through the years.

Currently, I don’t think they have the fastest decks. Both of Shaman’s best decks (Murloc and Aggro Overload) are faster. Token Druid and Zoolock are also pretty fast, though both those classes have other decks that are much slower. All of the decks I mentioned should be around at least at the beginning of the expansion.

Hunter would be the overall answer. However, there are Aggro decks from various other classes across the different expansions that can close games even faster.

If you want to stick to just one ckass for aggression though, I’d pick Hunter.

For next expansion I’d go Shaman right now. Between OL Aggro and Murloc Aggro decks I think they’ll be the fastest options.

Historically though Hunter is probably the most consistent answer.

In standard Murloc shaman is easily the fastest deck to play. You either win or you lose well before turn 10.

There isn’t a particular class that has the fastest decks because most classes have fast decks. I know a lot of people are recommending Hunter but I think Zoolock is worth mentioning as well.

Odd Paladin (W/S)
Zoolock/Healzoo (Not sure how it fairs in Standard)
Mech Hunter (W/S)
Odd Rogue
Aggro Shaman

These are the fastest decks (imho) that come to mind. If you have the murlocs for it,

Murloc Paladin and Murloc Shaman. There was also a carpet zoolock running around but I think that one fell off the radar.
