This is a heavy midrange deck , which can handle the tempo very well because of the the variety of the aoe’s like Lord Godfrey, Despicable Dreadlord, Defile ,Hellfire . It contains also very strong minion removal like Voodoo Doll into Dark Pact . There is a very strong synergy in the deck which damage your hero and reward you some powerfull effects , for example Lesser Amethyst Spellstone can be activated with 6 cards . Also you have powerfull effect with Blood Witch into Deathweb Spider . Your win condition versus aggro decks are your powerfull aoe’s , your healing and lifesteal combos and of course Hooked Reaver . Versus all other deck types you have a very strong late game with Rin, the First Disciple and Lord Jaraxxus which destroys control decks and some solid drops like Countess Ashmore which draws at least two cards and The Lich King .
Lord Jarxxus is great against control decks – but is he still relevant? I feel like an important question that this deck has to solve is Jarxxus versus Bloodreaver Gul’dan, the 15 health of Jarxxus just sets you back too much. Moreover, how does this deck compete with Cubelock or other variants of the Demon Voidlord package?
I feel like there is much potential in this list, but it needs more support as I feel like there are much better versions of Warlock decklists that achieve similar goals in a much better fashion. I don’t know, I will definitely try this deck out when we hit out the new expansion.
Maybe Jaraxxus is not a good choice for this deck … but against some match ups like priest is a perfect win condition and priest will be tier in the upcoming meta . This deck can’t run Bloodreaver Gul’dan cause it only brings back Despicable Dreadlord and Hooked Reaver as a 4-4 without taunt and the deck idea is a more tempo based playstyle . Maybe instead of Jaraxxus you can put Alexstarzsa as a tempo 9 mana play to your opponents face and finish him or as a heal option versus aggro decks that may appear in the meta . As you said and maybe you are right ” I feel like there is much potential in this list, but it needs more support as I feel like there are much better versions of Warlock decklists that achieve similar goals in a much better fashion ” i thought about this deck as counter to Cubelock (Maybe i can cut Farseer and put Spellbreaker instead) and i belive it could be stronger than Cubelock because it can support a more tempo midrange playstyle .
