I feel like getting Ozruk from Servant of Kalimos can be useful sometimes but putting it into the deck normally feels wrong, too less attack for the huge mana cost.

Get rid of the Air Elemental and put in 2x Blazecaller

 

I have to agree. Ozruk isn't worth a card slot, because he costs too much and you're rarely going to get him to a good health stat. I've seen him up to 40, but that requires lots of luck.

@DustintimeThe deck looks fine. If you are not encountering that many murloc or pirate deck, consider removing the tech cards. If that doesn't work for you or if it is not an option, I would suggest using a stronger deck, like pirate warrior or a token shaman.

That would be a very difficult combo to pull of since Ravenous Pterrordax is a Warlock card. :P

i get it like 40% of the time from jeweled macaw

 

LMFAO!

 

you must play quest rogue.

I love Jeweled Macaw. No matter what Hunter I build, Standard or Wild, I put in Jeweled Macaw.  

 Actually I'm more of a Control player, lately Priest.  :P

I would suggest cutting 1 Deadly Shot.  A lot of mid range hunters run 0 copies now, I personally really like it and still think 1 is the way to go, 2 seems a bit excessive though.  I have always like a single Tol'vir Warden, but that is just personal preference.

I have just one deadly shot now, things seem to be improving slightly. There are still quite a bit of legendary players still mid rank though it seems.

A lot of my people are still floating around 10 and 15 right now. I hit 15 day the first day and have just been doing Arena. I'll hit the ladder sometime around the end of this week when I have more time.

Most people run Evolve Shaman since it has a positive winrate against a lot of the common decks, one being Midrange Hunter. What little I played on the ladder I ran Control Warrior and I won the few games that I had faced against Evolve Shaman.

understandable, but as control warrior you usually dont have 3 or 4 two and three mana minions on the board buffed up to three times their original stats, and with two mana from the opponent they get changed to 1/1's. a little ridiculous.

I agree. Though I enjoy playing Control Shaman, I feel Shaman has been slightly over tuned. Hopefully the next set will be a little more generous to the other classes. *Cough* Warlock

Would love to get some feedback on my Pirate Warrior variation. I usually play MR Hunter or Token Shaman, I got a Patches recently for my Shaman and due to my 0% win-rate with the Control Warrior I'd attempted to build, I thought I'd give Pirate Warrior a try. I've got a limited collection and don't have the dust to craft epics, but I could craft any commons or rares that I don't already have.

Seems like a pretty solid budget version. If you have the cards I would suggest dropping Warsong Commander and 1 Reckless Rocketeer for 2 of either Southsea Captains or Mortal Strikes. Southsea Captain has more targets than Warsong Commander which will up your overall damage output and it will give your pirates more survivability if you need to trade while Mortal Strike could be used for either removal or extra burst damage. I personally run both in mine but I've seen versions that didn't run one of the two.

Does Mortal Strike get around Taunt minions? Just trying to work out why so many decks run both Mortal and Heroic Strike. 

I'm also wondering whether there's much chance that one of these cards might get moved to HoF when KFT launches... Pirates seem to have been pretty popular since Patches appeared... Though I suppose they'll probably just wait for Patches to rotate to Wild.

It's spell damage so it's not effected by taunt and honestly I don't see it or Heroic Strike going to the HoF. Don't quote me on that though. lol

Consider yourself quoted :P haha

Thanks for the advice. It's helpful people like you that make it possible for latecomers such as myself to get into this game.  I started playing in April around Un'Goro launch and currently, I'm sitting around rank 11, trying to push to 10 this season.

Not a problem, it's what I'm here for. I'm happy that the game is getting more players and I try to do what I can to keep them. :)

This has been a really effective change. The data told me that your suggestions would work, but I underestimated how much difference these little changes would make.

Definitely worth the 500 dust for a Southsea Cap and a Mortal Strike. Dropped the Warsong Commander and one of the RRs as you suggested. I was previously stuck around ranks 12-13, but managed to push through to rank 10 and won 8 of my last 10 games. I see a rank 5 in my future and one of those sweet, sweet, golden epics. I've got 3 solid decks now (this, a MR Hunter, and a Token Shaman) so am able to adapt to suit the meta, which is nice.

      Today, we're recapping the four Shaman cards revealed by Gamespot. We also have some dev clarifications on how they work.
      If you missed our previous Warrior recap, you will find it here.

       
      What a way to kick things off; this card looks insane! The dream is that Drakuru takes out two of your opponent’s minions, resurrects them on your side, and survives combat somehow. You’re looking at a 5-for-1 exchange on board.
      In the more likely scenario that it doesn’t survive, that’s still a complete flip of the board state. Even if it’s trading into a single big minion on the opponent’s side, that’s still a 2-for-1, with that 1 on your side being a big tough-to-kill minion. The only worry is that there will sometimes be late-game scenarios where the 6/8 stat line won’t be enough to get you any resurrections, but I’m hopeful those are few and far between.
      Still, even if the Big Shaman archetype doesn’t catch on for Shaman, I expect this card, in particular, to find a home in Renathal Control Shaman lists. This card is doing much of the same work that Sylvanas and Insatiable Devourer are without having to run through the trouble of infusing first.

      Once again, another big expensive card and a solid showy effect to go along with it. Obvious deathrattle/reborn synergy, as well as good with big minions in general. At 10 cost, it will take up your entire mana pool for the turn, though there are things you can do to play around that as a shaman.
      We’ve gotten some clarification from the devs on the mechanics of this one:
      All the copies summoned die at the end of the effect trigger after having attacked. Unfortunately, it won’t be some corruption-style aura effect that a cheeky Showstopper effect can silence off. Your copies are made from your hand from left to right until no more board spaces are available. Beware that Colossals will summon their appendages and take up potential board space from your other copies. Windfury minions will only attack. Sorry Drakuru, no double freebies for you ? Minions that enter Dormant won’t attack, but they won’t die either! The interaction of getting free dormant minion copies on board is interesting, but is there enough to build a deck around? In standard, there is Gangplank, Slimescale, and Pelican Divers, but outside of From De Other Side “synergy,” they might not be worth it. In Wild, at the very least, there is meme potential with getting Magtheridion and The Darkness out with this and getting their battlecries to awaken both copies when you play them out the turn after.
      There’s obvious synergy with the other big cards revealed here, with Prescience loading up your hand with some beefy bois, getting get off reborn, lifesteal and deathrattle value, summon a minion from Overlord Drakuru.

      That’s a lot of keywords for a single card, but they work together to become the stuff of nightmares for any board-based aggro deck. Taunt and lifesteal make this a nightmare to trade into, and even with enough removal to clear the main body and the reborn one, the deathrattle effect still will hit for 3 twice and heal you for 6. So while the 3 attack won’t be anything to write home about, plopping this down will buy you a good deal of time. There’s also the possibility to make use of the leftover reborn 3/1 body to evolve into a 9 or 10 drop.

      This card will get you 2 Mana 2/3 Ghostly Apparitions with the Undead minion type, which can matter for cards like Unliving Champion, or Invincible, for instance. Suppose you trigger the secondary ability here both times. In that case, that’s a pretty sweet deal right there, advancing a Big Shaman win con in 2 ways: The taunt on the Ghostly Apparitions advances your gameplan of stalling the game out until you can stabilize on board enough to play the 5+ Mana minions you’ve tutored out of the deck.
      We’ve theory crafted 3 potential builds that can use this package of Shaman cards.
      First, consider diving head first into the Big Shaman theme, bringing in Vanndar Stormpike and forgoing all other sub-5 cost minions to get max value out of Prescience and From De Other Side. We’re also going to run with the evolve subtheme to take advantage of any leftover bodies that we might get from Stoneborn General, Overlord Drakuru, or Blighblood Berserkers. The departure of the Knights of the Frozen Throne set will make evolving 10 drops better again now that there are no more Snowfury Giants in the Evolve pool, and we get to re-roll for the generally better bodies from the 10 costs. We’re adding in some early-game removal to compensate for the lack of early drops so we can better survive the early game.

      AAECAaoICunQBMORBKeNBK/ZBNnsA/rsA4qSBfuRBYfUBKrZBArG+QOs7QS12QTgtQS22QTblATGzgTj9gOGoQX4oAUA
      Next, let’s try to use the standard Renathal Control Shaman archetype that’s doing rather well in the meta as a starting point. One safe idea is to look at slotting Overlord Drakuru and potentially Brightblood Berskerker and From De Other Side into this standard XL Renathal Control Shaman as ways of fighting back on board while getting your infuse cards stacked up.

      We could instead also try and drop all the duplicates from the list and convert it into a Reno deck, as the deck was already playing a lot of one-offs. That gives us just enough room for one of each of these bad boys, which together with Reno will up the turnaround potential of the deck at the cost of a little bit of consistency. Doing so we can end up with this list:
      Deck code / link: 
      AECAaoICunQBMORBKeNBK/ZBNnsA/rsA4qSBfuRBYfUBKrZBArG+QOs7QS12QTgtQS22QTblATGzgTj9gOGoQX4oAUA
      Why not use both and make it a Reno-thal deck? Prescience and Windchill will try to compensate for the loss of card draw from droping one copy of Gorloc Ravager and Famished fool. We are adding in Convincing Disguise to have still enough evolve effects around. The idea of including Bracing Cold and Far Sight is to hopefully discount From De Other Side or the evolve cards so we make use of any leftover bodies in the same turn. Ozumat’s in here not just to get us up to 40 cards, but because it’s a near guaranteed board clear combo with From De Other side, if you manage your hand and board space just right, that leaves you with all its appendages afterward.

      March of the Lich King, set to release on December 6th, is Hearthstone's third expansion in the Year of the Hydra. Blizzard gave us an early sneak peek at some of the Warrior cards revealed today that we discuss in our latest post.
      Today, we'd like to dive into the Warrior cards revealed by Inven Global.

      Pretty straightforward card. The effect gives us much more value the larger the minion is. It gets really scary with the potential follow-up with Bulk Up giving you this massively overstated minion in hand twice. Or If you can get this on Mor’shan Elite, that’s another nice double dip of value.

      Honestly, this feels like it was tailor-made to be the ideal target of Last Stand, as your opponent can’t easily get rid of it with cheap removal. It lets you use your stats immediately by letting you trade in and stabilize with a big taunt. It might not be too shabby on its own, as the 3 effects make it an annoying wall most opponents will be forced to trade into.

      Wow, they’re really not holding back with hand disruption this set. One (nearly) guaranteed discard is pretty impactful and becomes a must-remove card in any control matchup. This card will absolutely crush the hearts of some Big Spell Mages in the coming months, that’s for sure.
      It should be noted that this discard, the devs have confirmed to us that it will trigger your opponent’s “Whenever you discard a card” effects. So try and clear a Discard Warlock's Tiny Knight of Evil and perhaps try to play around having Suffocating Shadows or Soul Barrage trigger in that matchup. 

      To round off the control toolbox from this expansion, we’ve got a pretty unique effect here. Hopefully, this doesn’t end up being too easy to play around for savvy opponents. You could pre-empt this by running out a Blademaster Okani first and baiting out your opponent into playing a small spell first. But still, while the effect will only be as game-changing as your opponent’s last spell, getting any meaningful spell off seems pretty nice.
      Putting it all together, we have put together an interesting Taunt Control Warrior decklist to try out:  AAECAQcMmu0D784EvIoE2fkDqIoEiN8E784E0qwEmu0DlJUEzJIFiKAECcWSBZTtA47tA5+fBImgBIagBJDUBMSSBcuSBQA= . Slotting in Varian seems like a natural addition to any deck with Silverfury Stalwart and Tealan hops along to be the one divine shield minion you might want to have in your control deck. Rokara and Remornia are just good cards and they’ll go a long way to having your Mor’shan Elite’s active. The rest of the deck is the classic Control Warrior shell that will hopefully give you the armor and removal needed to live long enough to throw down your double-stated taunted win conditions.
      https://hearthstone.blizzard.com/deckbuilder?deckcode=AAECAQcMmu0D784EvIoE2fkDqIoEiN8E784E0qwEmu0DlJUEzJIFiKAECcWSBZTtA47tA5%2BfBImgBIagBJDUBMSSBcuSBQA%3D
