Blizzard is back with their off-meta deck spotlight, and this time we’re a bit deeper into the Witchwood expansion. We’ll be seeing a shakeup of the meta once the nerfs hit on May 22nd!
One of the greatest joys in Hearthstone is watching players adapt and grow throughout the course of a competitive season. We’re always surprised and inspired by the awesome ways players look to evolve and grow decks on the ladder.
Today, we wanted to showcase a few creative decks that have been performing well at the rank of Legend.
To find these decks, we scoured the rankings for players that did well last week and picked out some interesting builds from amongst these top performers. We only selected decks that were played in 50 or more games at Legend level.

With The Witchwood came a minion that counts as ALL minion types—the Nightmare Amalgam. It’s been exciting to watch this frightening card revive a deck that hasn’t been seen in quite some time: Warlock Murloc Zoo! With this build, 周一信徒 reached very high into the rank of Legend on the CN servers with a 62% win rate. Mrrglgl!
Dragon Buff Priest was a popular and powerful deck prior to The Witchwood, but the rotation hit it hard. However, in the hands of 그림자멀록, we’re able to see that the light still holds sway over these powerful creatures. This deck made up for lost synergies with the staying power provided by Divine Hymn and Wyrmguard, and helped 그림자멀록 rise through the KR and TW Legend ranks with a 58% win rate.
Shudderwock made a huge splash in the opening days of The Witchwood release, but has all but disappeared from meta lists. However, some players have continued to experiment in attempts to refine and recapture the early success of this Legendary shaman minion. With assistance from Hemet, Jungle Hunter, this deck helped Lightman from the EU server “get to the good stuff” much sooner so he could show off Shudderwock’s late game closing power.

Too bad Zoo is off meta
Are you supposed to use Zola on the Chain Gang or the Life Drinker?
It doesnt really matter 🙂 you just want the Battlecry yo trigger.
well against control if you can you should play zola and then grumble and then shudderwock +zola
but usually chain gang is better though .
