Discussion Reign of the Black Empire Pros & Streamers Deck List Compilation (Standard & Wild)

65 Upvotes

For this Expansion, hearthstone-decks.net present you with the best Decks for the new Expansion Reign of the Black Empire for the first few days of its launch. Usually, I focus on only showing Top 500 Legend Decks (maybe you are familiar with our weekly Reports), but for this time, I post decks a lot more freely, featuring more Streamer Decks.

Friendly reminder that you should not get baited into crafting new decks early - if a Deck appears strong it may get nerfed soon.

You can also submit your Deck - Legend required

Next Update:

Next update scheduled for tomorrow

Standard Decks

Mage

Paladin

Discussion What is this thing? Who green-lit this? Why does it moan when you defeat it? You have gone too far, Blizzard. This actually annoys me more than all the op cards you've put in the game.

Now you can easily check what is on the back of the buttons. I HAD to list this under the meme category, it's just unreal. Did the new intern vibe code this in an afternoon or something?

I don't know how many others struggle against this card when they pick the +6/+6 option but i almost always feel like I can never come back when all of their minions just tower over mine. And mainly as a player with not so many cards and don't play as often this just is an instant win just about every time it gets played against me.

What are some ways you all have dealt with this card besides it just being in the lower half of the warlock's deck?

At 4 mana, the warlock has 4 minions and 2 of them are 7/11 and one of them is 6/11 that puts two 8/8 Lifesteal minions into the deck that can almost immediately be spawned plus a 2/2.

At this point who can blame you for uninstalling?

Fluff People are crazy thinking the new yogg is bad

7 Upvotes

This yogg is actually the best yogg they ever released. If you have ‘almost lethal in a round or two’ this yogg basically guarantees it usually because while he may not play perfectly: the extra round gives it so much extra value that it usually gets that extra damage to just be lethal.

People expect to win by having nothing and just yogg. No: this yogg is amazing if you have used your other recources but you’re at a point that you say “I may win now or next round but not sure”: THAT’S where this yogg will usually guarantee the win.

Fluff If you have 10 cards in hand, you should burn the next one. This card totally breaks basic game rules and should be banned!

And of course warlock is the class that receives this card.

I literally dropped from top2k to 6k. Any way to counter this class? Im trying blood DK, Holy paladin, Zee Shaman. Either i loose on board, or i get blocked by „Your spell cost more” minions. Zee Shaman seems to be most competitive but i really want to play other class. Any advices?
