I am 15-3 with this deck, and only because the first few games I was learning it. I have been 12 games without a loss. This deck is completely op and I am not seeing anything that stops it. Elemental and pirate decks put up more of a fight but not much really. And the funny thing is, the problem here is 100% the dragon package. This shell + swipe is responsible for carrying me trough to the combo, I don’t even think the combo itself needs nerfing.
Edit: 17-4 and my winstreak ended at 14 wins in a row against the luckiest elemental mage alive permafreezing my Fye.
plague dk beats everything at a coin flip rate lol. I’d venture a guess it’s actually one of the better decks in the format but flying under the radar.
I mean most decks have crazy matchups against some other decks and its practically an auto win right? With plague DK its just a coin flip every time. and 50% win rate pretty good and that’s more than enough to climb.
you ever toss 10 heads in a row? You can do that with plague DK and just streak hard
I dunno how they will nerf it, but it’s 100% the survivability. The version of this deck that came out of the theorycrafting streams and everyone was terrified about turned out to be absolutely horrible. It couldn’t do anything against anything with a moderate board presence, even with the swipes. What changed was that they decided to include the full dragon package. From then on the deck skyrocketed.
It’s the same with the previous combo druid that was dominating the meta before and led to the whelp nerf. The problem has always been the dragon package. This shell is nuts and carries druid to any combo they set out to do.
They drew both miniaturize freezing elementals and both Frost shards before turn 7 and froze my Fye for the entire game, then sat there and continued to smash my face with damage from hand while I couldn’t get my combo together and finally when they ran out of freezes they somehow managed to lethal me with a Triplewick Trickster on a full board. Considering it’s the first elemental mage I lose to I’d say yeah they had a pretty lucky game.
Also, what’s the deal with your posts always being some snarky stuff for no reason? Lol
This isn’t even remotely correct. Plague DK has next to a 0% chance of beating a decent combo druid player. It’s currently a Tier 4 deck. How are you stopping 40 damage from hand on turn 7? You aren’t. Plague DK is horrible right now.
However, it IS the deck I’m playing, however my deck list is vastly different than what Plague DK normally runs. You really can’t beat Combo Druid. But I do beat up on Taunt Warrior, so there is that.
I agree that it seems like Announce Darkness is very OP I just put 2 copies of it in Warlock deck and then filled the rest with neutral cards and now I’m like 15-3, I don’t even play Warlock and I’m bad at the game in general but I guess this deck is just really OP or something, has anyone been complaining about it yet or am I onto something broken before the masses/netdecks realize it?
All the drinks should have been costed at 2. Even if they nerf the Concierge to a higher cost. It still doesn’t address that issue in Druid and it’s ignoring the fact that The Water Dancer decks are just as abusive…
It’s mining + Reska (without the 5 cost mining guy) and the rest of the deck is built as support for Amalgam deathrattle transfers for infinite Reskas + infinite Death growls and/or Infinite plague shuffles and/or infinite excavates.
I can share a list with you in game. It feels like plague DK, but plague DK was so much slower. There’s no 1 mana weapon in my list and no 2 mana plague guy, just Helya and Down with the Ship, but I shuffle in WAY more plagues than they ever did and I activate the plagues with more potency because of the forced draw. When Reska comes out, it’s nasty.
The stats on all the data site proves Plague DK is garbage.
But I’m sure you don’t care about stats or data and care more about personal feelings, so you keep on believing Plague DK is strong right now and that it’s “one of the better decks in the format”.
