I’ve updated this list for Post-nerf. Changed 1 Primordial Drake for Ysera (great vs Priest) and trying Elise for Skulking. May reverse that if Druid is still top tier…
He’s clearly focussing on beating pirates, not only bc of the golakkas as mentioned. Normally you use railing blade in ctrl pala, but pirate warrior has so many 4 health minions, that’s why he chose them i guess.
Considering the amount of Jade druids and priests , I think golakka crawlers are unnecesary , I would definitely switch those for a stampeding kodo and rag lightlord, good deck tough
You win by clearing the opponent’s board and outvalueing them. Your big threats like Lich King and Tirion can generate pressure and give you much value. Also, you have a lot of big weapons that can help closing out the game. Stonehill Defender can discover extra threats (Paladin has extremely good taunt minions like Tirion or Tarim).
As for Ragnaros, he is not needed in this deck, but you can switch out Lay on Hands if you like. Sometimes you just want the additional card draw. If the meta gets a bit slower, you might want the additional threat, though.

Hello!
Just want to say this deck is great, im at 8-1 W/L
i just replaced -1 Burnbristle to +1 Acolyte of Pain becuz of more card draw. it works great.
why i change was becuz i dont have the dust to craft Burnbristle
What ranks are you guys in? Rank 5 is filled with aggro druids and pirate warriors, crawlers make sense.
Rank 13 (was 8, but haven’t had the chance to play lately)
Pirate Warrior and Jade Druid are everywhere
The golakkas are only useful when you are playing against aggro, I’d consider playing an acolyte of pain for more draw and consistency and a koko.

Absence of Ranga is reasonable imho. Too many 8 drops there
What’s the win condition here? Also, no Ragnaros?

No Ragnaros?
Who better to craft – Tarim or Burnbristle?
Tarim by far.
