So, I know this isn't a popular format currently but it is my new anti-tilt mode I'm going to when I drop a rank or two and get frustrated on standard. it's such a great place to blow off steam, the level of play is lower, and there are sooo many different interesting decks, you hardly run into the same ones.

There are basically no resources out there for decks so it's been great deck building practice for me as well.

Use this thread to talk about WILD! post deck lists, discuss meta, etc.

Currently I'm running a midrange barnes hunter and haven't had much resistance, but I'm not in the low teens yet where I'm sure the secret pally AIDS begins. But I guess I have the highmane -> boom -> cotw mega AIDS curve so I can't complain.

n'zoth priest with herald volazj may not be the best but it's funny

I've tried my damndest to get Volazj to work in both formats but he just doesn't seem good enough no matter what I've tried.

Also I thought Kibler had a good take on his stream the other day on why wild isn't more popular. He theorized (paraphrasing obv) that people who want to play wild are many of the people who want to play the old decks they can't play anymore, only a whole bunch of those cards in those decks were nerfed at the time the wild format went live so they can't. He mentioned combo druid and handlock specifically. Seems reasonable I guess at least for certain decks.

Secret pally still strong

yeah I teched secret eater into my wild patron deck because of it

Is there a way to make a viable deck with Holy Champion?

I love that card but the current Priest options suck so hard. There has to be a way with Zombie Chow and Healbot?

Holy Champion is one of those soft taunts that it's hard to build a deck around because your opponent is going to focus on killing it before you get a chance to develop and get solid mileage out of it, at least that's been my experience with it.

..just secured me my rank 5 chest:



If you want to play some priest in wild i really recommend that list.

looks solid but sooo grindy.

Looks like I would enjoy never playing wild if I had to play against that deck. And it doesn't even have SWP, and only one Holy Nova.

looks like the list reynad was running the other night

....won a game by turn 4 today when i pyrod a paladin board ;-)

I'm gonna try to hit legend this month on wild ladder, it's way more fun and the sheer number of decks you can play is kind of nuts. Unsurprisingly MR shaman with just standard cards is still really good.

one small complaint though - is it just me or do people take FOREVER to play their turns in wild?

went on a disgusting 26-3 run with dragon priest from dumpster tier to rank 4

This deck shreds secret paladins and tempo mages to pieces. It does quite poorly against freeze mage, which 2 of my losses were attributed to. I went 1-2 against them. My other loss was against a n'zoth deck, I think warrior.

Anyway can't wait to try out a variation of this when gadgetzan comes out. It feels quite good, but maybe I'm just mulliganing well. So many games went T1 twilight welp > T2 coin > velen's chosen > concede



deathwing is just for ****s and gigs and can probably go in favor of a brann, but it's really good in MR vs MR matchups when you both have run out of steam, he's closed out a lot of games. I really want 2nd entomb as well but can't find anything I want to cut badly enough.

Ah **** i remember now, my other loss was to a disgusting burgle rogue game.

Are Secret Paladins really that prevalent in wild? I was playing some Burgle Rogue and Secret Hunter, using my standard decks and got eater of secreted in maybe half my matches. I was playing Burgle Rogue against a mage, stole 2 secrets and he had 2 eater of secrets and got them both. And then when I was playing Secret Hunter, I played a Reno Hunter who had both eater of secrets and Flare. LOL

Ive played 35 games of wild in the last two days and secret paladin was the most common opponent at 8

At 5+ it's like 50/50 MR shaman and paladin

if its all secret paladin and midrange shaman it sounds like its time to break out the mech mage should go through them like a hot knife thourh butter.

Gonna bust out the mage for sure, just made a freeze deck but mech sounds way more fun

It's the most tilting thing ever, you can tell the shaman are all really bad standard players that took their decks into wild because the level of play is lower

i recently threw together a mech mage deck to get my golden mage.
queued that **** at rank 25.

was surprised to learn that tempostorm lists wild meta now

was further surprised that there was no nzoth paladin on there, so I made one



9-1 so far with loss to weapons warrior deck and it was pretty bad so I subbed in Harrison for Keeper, if not facing many weapons Keeper is probably better though

caveats: still in dumpster ranks due to just starting, have not faced secret paladin yet but always mulligan for eater if facing pally

br0s aggroaids has infected our beloved WILD! format

I threw together an almost-all taunt warrior deck since I got the Play 20 Taunt Minions quest and so far it's just crushing lol

they released a wild meta snapshot on wildhearthstone and it got posted on comphs as well.

aggro is indeed king, but fortunately wild has more anti aggro tools than standard. other than that, standard and wild are pretty similar right now. Some of the top decks are standard lists.

sludge belcher t5 completely shuts down pirate warrior. So does deathlord to some degree.

I am playing secret pirate hunter atm

T2 Stolen Goods into T3 Deathlord generates quite a bit of saline

I'm obv gonna refine this list as I threw it together solely to knock out that quest as quickly as possible but this just wreck wild aggro so far

Goldshire Footman x2
I Know a Guy x2
Shieldbearer x2
Annoy0Tron x2
Bolster x2
Dirty Rat x1 (would probably run 2 but I only have 1 atm)
Public Defender x2
Sparring Partner x2
Stolen Goods x2
Deathlord x2
Fierce Monkey x2
King's Defender x2
Bloodhoof Brave x2
Alley Armorsmith x2
Sludge Belcher x2
Soggoth

Probably should go ahead and dump one Footman for Finley as otherwise you pretty much don't even use your hero power. Could use some card draw too I suppose, but at least so far I have not yet missed Fiery War Axe
