Yes, aya is a staple to this deck (and any jade deck for that matter, whether it be druid, shaman, or rogue). I don’t think you’ll have much success without her.
I’ve been playing Jade Druid for the last couple of months, best I got was rank 8. Changed my deck for this one today and I’m stunned on how amazing it is. I don’t know if I’ve been lucky on the few games I played, but It has counters for every situation. BGH, Plague, Black Knight, Ultimate Infestation. Simply amazing.
I hope I can get better rank this season.
Oh, I made one change only, changed Kun for one Mire Keeper for even faster ramping.
What is the purpose of Kun/Black knight/BGH in this deck? I lack those three, but I have enough dust to craft one, what should I craft, and what should I replace? I’m thinking of saving my dust for a gold Kun, cus I want a full gold druid collection oneday.
Purpose of Kun: Play Kun with 10 mana, refresh your crystals, then play ultimate infestation. This helps you avoid those awkard situations when you have 6/7 cards in hand and want to cast infestation, but are worried you will overdraw. It also lets you put a 7/7 on the board along with the 5/5 goul, which is also very powerful.
Purpose of Black Knight: Kills the Lich King, Obsidian Statue, pretty much any big taunt minion. This is a big help against Eternal Servitude priest
Purpose of BGH: Kills Y’shaarj, Lich King… pretty much anything big.
Which to craft? I’d say the Black Knight. I think it will become very prominent in this meta. Unless you’re planning on spending $1,000, I wouldn’t try to craft an all gold druid. Kun rotates when the new expansion is released anyway.
I tend to put about 50 bucks every month or two towards games, so I think I can afford to slowly craft each druid card gold. I love druid, and such a thing would make me very happy. I have already done the math of how much dust i’d need too, so I wont be getting over my head, as I know what I’m getting into. Also, I play a lot of Wild and goofy decks, so I don’t mind it rotating.
Thanks for the help tho! ill prob craft black knight and look for a replacement for BGH and Kun. if you want to suggest replacements, go ahead, I’m all ears 😀
I’ve replaced BGH and Kun with 2 naturalizes. Kun i think is just not all that necesary as you already have enough threats. 2 Naturalize fits the same role as BGH , but is a more flexible.
If you are patient and wait for the right opportunity you can often mill some important cards/ combo pieces . Also really ups your chances in the Exodia Mage matchup, feels great to see their Reflection, Antonidas’ or Aprentices dissapear and can make Frost Nova Doomsayer not a problem.
In some matchups it is a dead draw and i realise that (although it is surprisingly not as terrible as you’d expect against aggro) , but considering the insane draw in your deck a possibly bad card in your matters less.
Was just recently playing this deck againts a priest. was all going well until he played shulking geist and utterly destroyed my late game idols. Lmao i guess theres a counter for everything right?
I’m having trouble with it, looking to figure out what I’m doing wrong. My recipe differs because it lacks Malfurion (which I’ll add once I open him) and Black Knight, which I replaced with the Lich King. I also lack a second Primordial Drake and don’t run Spellbreaker by choice. Can someone give me a gameplan for this deck? It seems obvious, probably.
Usually what I do is ramp for the first few turns until I can play Nourish or Ultimate Infestation to increase my hand, then start powering up my Jades. My check-mate is to fill my (by that point) reduced deck with Jade Idols and start drawing them continuely with Gadgetzan Auctioneer, summoning huge Jade Golems in my late game. Can someone give me more details? Like, Mulligan, match-up specific plays etc.
Hardmulligan into wildgrow, blossom and innervate. Lich King is not a replacement for a black knight. It is not a reactive card and not efficient in current meta, especially in jade druid.
For this Priest card with Taunt with deathrattle destroys a random minion. Mainly as it’s the most common matchup and this card can put a stop to the Jade Druids final push for lethal.
Started having trouble with it, trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong. I lack Malfurion.
I feel it has something to do with the Mulligan. I always tend to desperately collect Ramp cards like Wild Growth to increase my Mana total, while the opponent floods the field.
What should my Mulligan and Game plan be against Aggro?
Against aggro if you have innervate swipe and plague are good keeps. Getting ramped up and playing big taunts and malfurion are good too. The deck should play out aggro games well if you don’t draw bad.

The key is you gotta know how many mana you’ll ramping to, you need to ramp correctly, you should have the plan, Cards to be kept against Aggro are : Blossom, Swipe, Wrath. And with this deck if you already have your Jade cards in hand, you better use Nourish to ramp and use that 10 mana out value card to refill
Great deck,
I lost once with it to another growth druid in first 10 ranked games.
I would maybe remove one of the Spreading Plagues and switch it with a mire keeper for additional growth options. Playing Ultimate Infestation while you’re opponent is on his 6/7 turn is pretty much game.
Is Aya important in this deck?
i just need that to complete =(
any sugestion or maybe is better to try another version of druid like mid-range/token?

Never thought about Naturalise, but against the meta that does sound fairly effective. Ill def consider that for a replacement! Thanks for the imput!

You should play Nourish intro ramp instead of draw most of the time. It is really important to get to 8+ mana asap.

No Feral Rage PogChamp
Misst 4 cards but still whent 8/0 god deck
This deck seems great, but why the Spellbreaker??
For this Priest card with Taunt with deathrattle destroys a random minion. Mainly as it’s the most common matchup and this card can put a stop to the Jade Druids final push for lethal.

how can i replace black knight ?
Lich King 🙂
Natrualize is pretty good atm
Worst deck ever – takes hours until you can do something useful
Easily one of the best decks on ladder right now.
Im currently rank 64 legend on Asian server with this list, and climbed from rank 5 to 1 with this list in NA. this list is actually really good.
Now rank 10, deck is great. black knight tech has surprisingly been very good.

well thats because youre a terrible player

2 infestations seems bad. Maybe DK instead of one?
2 infestations is VERY GOOD but i put the si insteas of spreading plague
Sorry the DK
What would you suggest would be best replaced with Kun, The Forgotten King in this deck? Or is Kun useless here?
I don’t think Kun belongs here.
Kun is great here!!! Fandral into Kun into Ultimate Infestation makes your enemy very sad
