Abelcain 1 Report post Posted September 28, 2016 What does "unique decks outside the meta" mean? is this a just for fun deck to use with your friends and not a good deck to use for ranked? i just fought an awesome dragon paladin on my shaman, is there a way to make this a ranked play deck?

Unique decks outside the meta are usually decks that are not a big threat and are inferior to most of other meta decks. You can use them to ladder, but it won't be as easy as it would be with midrange shaman or hybrid hunter. Sure, dragon pally can be a ladder deck (and some may consider it as a ladder deck already), but since the deck is still new, it needs more refinement, which can only be done with a ton of experience with the deck. It's the same reason why dragon warrior wasn't played much when it first appeared, but it still gained an insane popularity later, when it got more refined. If the Unique Deck category was split into Fun-only and Ladder-viable, dragon paladin would be in the latter category. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

positiv2 946 Report post Posted October 4, 2016 @AbelcainIt might be moved when we see the results of nerfs on meta. We will update our decks to reflect the nerfs first though, so it might take some time before the deck's efficiency is reevaluated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mimech 24 Report post Posted October 8, 2016 I've been having a lot of fun with this deck. Played against Shaman and managed to do: Turn #7 Dragon Consort into Turn #8 Brann Bronzebeard + 3-mana Dragon Consort + 2-mana Book Wyrm into Turn #9 Ysera (from an earlier Netherspite Historian) It doesn't always play out so well, but that was fun.

Otherwise Ragnaros, Sylvanas or one of the big dragons as additional late-game threat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bigtimedwarfer 1 Report post Posted January 27, 2017 Any chance of this being updated to reflect Kolento's midrange dragon deck? http://www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/decks/kolentos-dragon-paladin-january-2017-season-34/ Would love some guidance on how best to pilot it, particularly with how/when to drop Sir Finley.

Sir Finley Mrrgglton looks like a card you can drop when you are sure what you're playing against. Against aggro you want priest or warrior hero power, and mage or druid (possibly even rogue) against midrange and tempo, and warlock or mage against control decks.

Not only it gives you huge minion value in the form of a 6/6 with divine shield and taunt, but also gives you an amazing weapon - the Ashbringer. Since this deck is all about the value and stats, Tirion Fordring is a high priority craft. Until you craft him, you can use Ragnaros the Firelord or Ysera, though you'll have much lower end-game power. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
