People at rank 10 have been playing that for a month or two I think, but maybe it's more common now?
Using your deck right now. It's great so far. Don't have Elise so I just swapped it for a mountain giant and took out 1 plated beetle for a cube. I'm thinking of maybe changing out the cube for a dreadlord now.
No it doesn't. Mind breaker is to screw up with your opponent on the first turns since lately the strongest decks are using the hero power a lot at the beginning
Once hagatha is there,,you can use mind breaker if for some reason you don't want to fill your hand with spells if you are close to 10 cards on hand
I didn't even think about it and that scenario happens to me a lot! Thanks for the tip
yeah, odd/even paladin is no fucking joke. Tempo Rogue is pretty good but if you don't get a fast KO or any of your draw cards, it runs out of steam.
Which version are you running? Heavy giants with taunt or swarm with Soul of the Forest? The latter plays a bit like the old spell / token druid with Violet Apprentice. I have a hard time playing that one correctly. : /
I've had...mixed, results playing Hand Druid. It's fun though!
Yeah, people are pooping on Shudder, but my decks usually lose to it (Taunt Druid, Hand Druid, Elemental Shaman). Have you played with Elementals yet? Turn one Firefly, turn two Earthen Might, turn three Tar Creeper / Hot Spring Guardian has been pretty strong against most decks not named Warlock--even some warlock decks. You're playing Elementals almost every turn. I've been trying out Shudder it in, but my last match had me Blaze Elementaling my face for 5 and Kalimos healing me for 12 (when I was at 25 life). : / Just...Shudder post-Hagatha is preeeetty good.

I play this deck with 2 owls. the thing about reno is he plays this at legend level. down in the gutter where I roam there's more pally than warlock
also deck is borderline unplayable down here just bc so many pallys (its teched hard against them but still isn't good against odd pall)
It's insane that they haven't halved the drop rate of steed in arena.
Elise isn't a core card. Just another way to delay and fill your hand after fatigue.
Happy that you deck doing well for you. You should try to get rank legend with that.
Evens Paladin is scary. A taunt druid summoned 7 taunt walls, and I drew an equality for the eq+consecration combo, buffed my silver hands with the 8 mana sword, and finished the person.
The biggest thing though, is the consistency this deck offers. The consistency is crazy good. No matter the hand, the cards you get are always useful.

I'm still struggling to even reach rank 9 with odd paladin. I'm wondering if I should put 2x boisterous bard? I've lost a couple of times againt odd paladin using it.
even paladin might be broken
being able to immediately play a minion turn 1, no matter your hand, is stronk. Not to mention access to their strongest buff cards, and call to arms, stretches it over the top.

Are you running into alot of taunt druid and warrior? if so then odd pala is almost impossible to win with.
I faced that against zoolock, and that minion burned my cards.
It looks okay, problem is there are a lot of strong 3 drops to contend with.
tess is fun as hell, use a shadowstep with her. what's your deck? mine are all wonky and I can't climb with them but they're fun.
using lady in white dragon priest in wild and it's a real nice meta counter

Can someone good at statistics calculate the odds of having 6 explosive runes in a deck, but drawing none of them from 2 mulligan cards and 11 total deck cards drawn?
The class that can draft 8 Steed's.
Thanks, too bad only got 1 steed. And silver sword is crazy good.
playing some of quacak's kingsbane tess on wild ladder....deck is fun. don't have shaku so using sonya and a second swashburglar. I feel like it needs some more draw but I guess it really just comes down to whether or not you can valeera early

Mulligan is about 31% chance to not draw an explosive rune.
Not drawing any of your six runes in 11 draws is about 5%.
Combining them both is about a 1.5% chance, if my math is correct.
Wooow! What are you going to make?

Any thoughts?
i am in ladder fucking hell. doesnt matter what deck im playing, im getting shit on by everything and anything. if there's a card i need, doesnt matter how hard i mulligan, its not coming in time. been at rank 4 for 4 days until tonight and now im buried at rank 5 zero stars. i probably just need to stick with one deck and ride out the massive fucking losing streaks, but its so frustrating.
when i misplay it feels even worse, because of how badly im getting shit on when i dont. probably just need a break, but im still wanting to play all of the new cards so i havent quit. shit is getting tiresome though.

I'm using a variation of Trump's version shown here:
I swapped out the spellstones for the Druid card that silences or deals 2 damage (sorry forgot the name).
I've been able to still swarm without SoF thanks to Wispering Woods and Spreading Plague and the +2 damage buff from branching paths.
I've been playing for a month or so. Thanks for all the advice and the caveats.
Those Pally decks look crazy, too, so I'll probably play my Pauper decks for a while like Hereafter suggested.
Shaman could give it a go with Hex but yeah Mage is definitely the more viable class against Hadronox. However if the Druid can stall until turn 10 and either use Oakheart and Naturalize or just play it from your hand and Naturalize it then you can kind of get around it.
Hadronox is essentially N'Zoth but only for Druid. I will have to try that deck out today. It looks super strong.
So, as usual, my mind is blown with all the new decks and the way the meta is up in the air, I tried a few decks, as per usual, I have no luck with fast Paladin decks, and the Shudderwock Shaman seems quite easy to counter, but I tried odd quest Warrior, and that seems pretty good?
I went from rank 5 to 3 with Odd Paladin last night. People just can't keep the board clear. I felt bad for a Rogue who used Fan of Knives AND the 5/3 mass backstabber to clear my boards, and he still died on turn 6. I ate through Lackey into Voidlord + Taldaram + Cubed Voidlord, too. I named the deck Manifest Destiny.
Spiteful Summoner needs big cards to draw on - you don't want him pulling a 3-drop for you.
I think Arcane Tyrant is not a good card for Big Spell Mage. You need high value from all of your cards.
