Hearthstone Budget Decks For The Great Dark Beyond, Cheap Decks for Laddering in Hearthstone!
I love the budget decks, they always help me decide where to spend my very limited dust. I would however, caution against dumping your dust into one and expecting to climb much higher than gold 5. The guide makes the claim that the agro Demon Hunter can climb to Legend rank, but unless you’re a far better player than I am, it can’t. So far I’ve found that it gets effectively walled by Druids, Paladins, and Priests that flood the board, clear the board, and use super cheap buffs. Unless you’re lucky to draw very specific cards in a very timely manner, there doesn’t seem to be much that can be done about this.
Mage also has a very tricky deck that can give them infinite, free spells that exponentially climb in spell power around turn 5-6, and I have not found a way to deal enough damage by then to prevent being burned by *20* damage fireballs.

Update:
I’ve just lost about 20 times in a row on gold 5. Paladin, Druid, and even Mage decks have been gaining board control incredibly fast. I don’t know that this deck could survive a legend climb.

This is a great deck for the cost. It seems to really struggle against Paladin this time around though, it’s almost impossible to deal enough damage before they drop huge, buffed taunts.

Will these budget decks be updated for Scholomance? I spent all my dust on this one, but the meta must have changed immediately after the expansion and I’m getting my butt handed to me again.
Does anyone have advice? I’m still walled at gold 5-4, warriors and paladins especially, but not only them.
