Do you think Dark Peddler is good in normal handlock? I don't think there's anything to put it in for in Demonlock, but old school handlock... might be good?

Theres a lot of room when you reduce to 1-offs. Its a great card bc you can play it on curve and it wont hurt giants or drake. Aso corruption, soulfire, power overwhelm, etc are all very useful.

I am very convinced in those cards for handlock and think they are way too anti tempo for faster decks like zoo

Yeah, I don't mean in a Reno deck. Would you run 1 or 2 Dark Peddler's in Handlock (without the demon package)? They allow you to curve into Giants while establishing some kind of board. I'm not sure what you take out. Or rather, what the entire deck looks like. Lemme think.

Bought Naxx so I can finally build real Zoo. Pretty stoked. Will be missing Imp-gang Boss but pretty much have everything else. Recommended replacements?

harvest golems and shattered suns were all the rage before IGB.

I'm 6-2, both losses to Midrange Paladin (one was Renoadin), which is just a bad matchup I think. I'm not sure what to change. Acidic Swamp Ooze might be unnecessary. Kind of want to add a Frost Giant over it. The greed is real.

Yeah, I will play a lot more tonight without making changes.

I wasn't sold on Reno before trying it in Warlock. I thought you couldn't get away with building a deck of 1-of's just to play a legendary card that can easily be one of your bottom 7 cards or w/e. In Warlock, your hero power gets you to Reno considerably faster, and if you draw it before dying also has no downside (you just get free cards, lol). Warlock class cards are mostly terrible, so using a lot of 1-of neutrals doesn't even make the deck that much worse. It feels potentially broken good in Warlock.

Just wanted to share my fun new zoo that i think is really strong. Uses Bran in ways I haven't seen any one else do.

9/9 Reliquary for 1?
16/16 Frostwolf for 5?

The 2x discover from Dark Pedlar is great and a +4 from Abusive, Lance Carrier or DID should not be underestimated. You can also make a huge Void Terror.

Originally had Ooze but that battlecry doesnt work with Bran despite the text seeming as though it would. Not sure if thats intended.

Enjoy!

Wasn't near my PC when I made the last post so couldn't present the deck well as I wanted. Have been playing nothing else the last couple days and it's even stronger than I first thought. It seems like the combos would be hard to pull off as they all rely on having a big board but with lots of low cost minions, the draws you get from Peddler and the extra minions you get from Creeper, Egg, IGB and Imp-losion it's actually really consistent.

I've had 3-4 games where opponent just concedes turn 5 when they still have 20+ health because my board is like 4x 1/1's, a 4/4 Nerubian an 8/8 Giant and 5/5 Reliquary. You just can't put that much power on the board so early with any other deck I've played.

The Bran combos are fun but even in games when you never draw him the deck is still very strong. The only match up I've had that seemed really bad is Hunter. Unleash is a hard counter and Explosive trap is pretty bad too as most the minions are low health.

I haven't played much this month so games are have been at R5-10 but I'm 17-2. Did anyone give it a try?

Any thoughts on dropping egg for flame juggler in a brann deck? Egg is great but flame jugglers can kill a minibot if the juggle hits and can get double juggles with brann. Eggs are great but are slow and can get stuck in your hand/board if you don't draw your activators, and obv can get silenced which can lose you the game.

Guess could drop haunted creeper for juggler instead but creeper is so good.

I don't personally think Brann does enough in zoo. Eggs and creeper are core to zoo's game plan of buffing cheap minions and I would not cut either.
