The first major Standard Hearthstone Tournament took place over the weekend. It was the first real glimpse on how the competitive scene might be shaping up in the near future. One of the big surprises was that Druid got absolutely dumpstered in the tournament. We don’t know exactly which type of Druid was most played, but it was likely a high percentage of C’Thun Druid. Here are a look at the winrate stats, you can see that the classes without a real standout deck are at the bottom: Priest, Hunter, and Druid.
This doesn’t mean that these classes aren’t going to find something that will change their fortunes, but for now the outlook isn’t so great for them. It should be no surprise that the top performing classes were Warrior, Paladin, and Shaman. Warrior has two strong deck lists, Control Warrior and Patron Warrior. Paladin has the new N’Zoth Deathrattle Paladin, and Shaman is repping Midrange and Aggro with all of their fancy new cards.

Thanks for posting this I was curious about neobility’s lists
Can someone explain to me why Midrange hunter isn’t good? The lists look strong yet no one is playing it and no one is covering it.
not too surprised…. i’m far from the best HS player in the world.. and i’ve been destroying C’Thuid.
Destroying it with what deck?
Paladin is especially good right now with all the healing and Equality/Pyro
Deathrattle Priest almost every time. This isn’t a troll, C’Thun really isn’t that hard to beat and Deathrattle Priest destroys Deathrattle Paladin.
