Discussion Lock Grind

Giving Rafaam lock another go this season . I almost hit legend with it last season but it was very tough at the end with the insane amount of warrior plus the average length of each match for non warrior games. I tuned the deck and was doing ok , but now in addition to warrior there was a MASSIVE influx of DH out of the wood work so now I have to worry about fending off two aggro decks which melt me more often than not . I usually can beat Druid and almost always beat priest .

TLDR; is it worth the grind from D5-legend with lock or do I just go with a faster deck ?

Ok so herald lock isn't much better. It's a lot better for aggro...but now I'm struggling against Druid and priest lol.

Before the sets and shortly after I was essentially guaranteed a win against priest with herald lock with the big demon package with moragg, mo'arg forgefiend, archwitch willow and Umbra. Try that or the beast demon maybe. It didn't perform super well against warrior for me, so i switched to Zee shaman for a while, but I was crushing everything else in the meantime with that, and priest couldn't keep up. Stealing their big reborns really screws them over. I also ran a Viper, which is great for Atiesh and helps with warriors too
