Notable Statistics

Piloted Shredder and Dr. Boom continue to be the most prevalent cards in Hearthstone. The Shredder appeared in 60.7% of decks, this was 25% ahead of the next common card, Ironbeak Owl. Dr. Boom didn’t hit the 75% he did in the ESL Grand Final, but he did manage to wind up in 64.3% of decks. Loatheb and Sylvanas Windrunner continue to be top tier legendaries appearing in 50% of decks.

While Paladin saw zero play at ESL it seemed to be the fourth deck of choice between it and Warrior representing 10.7% of the decks. Druid still remains the top dog, while Rogue trailed it by a mere 3.5%. Priest was the big loser being brought by none of the players.
