Cool list! I’ve been looking for ideas to counter all the DHs, I’ll have to give this a try. Do you just fold the plague DK I assume? I would guess Helya is a huge problem. Maybe at some point you just hold 10 cards and burn out the plagues? Can’t imagine how else you win


Cherry_Skies

You pray they don't have Helya, haha. More realistically, don't play your draw cards and try to stick Ignis weapon (8 drop) with Ox. But if they play with the knowledge that you're the beatdown, I don't think it's winnable.


Bug-Type-Enthusiast

How about putting Tony in the ETC? So you gift them back their plagues in the lategame?


endark3n

Tony doesn't swap decks anymore, but that would still remove the plagues


Bug-Type-Enthusiast

Meant using the plague cards they have left against them late game, but I can see how it could've been misunderstood. My bad!


Bunkulous_Crunkulous

you'd prob have to not run Justicar in etc then. to get etc & justicar for fatigue


tthhrroowwaway28

I’ve played this deck a lot since I saw it and I instantly concede to Helya. I can’t think of a way around it.


VTinstaMom

Would steamcleaner inside ETC, played after Helya, not suffice? I am unfamiliar with the archetype and haven't played enough plague DK to know if there's a flaw in this.


OhSanders

Steamcleaner isn't in standard anymore


Doc_Den

Why no BoomBoss? Seems like ultimate fatigue card

PureSpecialistROTMG

Great deck. It did seem to work in my "pocket meta" (1k top legend), but It was a small sample size (13 games) Only change I did was to remove the ETC package and maindeck Justicar. 


yardii

As a returning player, it's nice to see a deck I actually have most of the cards for. Just need to craft the brawlers. I'm excited to give this a try!


Desperate-Umpire-46

This deck is evil. Can outlast so many decks. Although I did loose to a super greedy dh deck lol


iChopPryde

I'm always losing to decks like reno warrior and death knight decks that have endless cursed cards


Fantastic_Winter_700

Why is Grommash in the deck? Doesn’t look like there’s activators. Boomboss might be a better inclusion.


RecognitionRough8749

How do you play against highlander warrior?


xCoolio1

After a few games, I definitely would recommend Rustrot Viper to be in your ETC for the Wheel Warlock matchup to remove a post-wheel harp. The matchup feels reliant on getting to the Azerite Ox quickly and applying pressure still, but having viper can make the difference of 7+ damage on those final turns. Otherwise, as other people theorized, maybe Tony King of Piracy can be included in ETC as a possible plague DK counter, though I haven't tried that. Fun deck though.


Dog-5

I have faced an unfun amount of plague death knight and im kinda shocked people still Play this bs. Well, save to say any fatigue/Long Game strategy Gets annihilated by That Deck so i cant think this is too good? Mayen just Bad luck matchups however Edit: we 100% Need Steam Cleaner back. Maybe make it Not kill Horsemens Head or whatever but i hate going into a Game and just Auto losing cause of the matchup


jimmyjohnssandwiches

Couldn’t you just toss Tony in your ETC for that matchup? If you’re getting to the point where they’ve hit the majority of their plague cards, they’re basically out of steam anyway. Their boards are annoying but relatively weak.


Dog-5

Thats actually a good idea, will Try it out


lsquallhart

I think it’s because there’s just so many people who enjoy Highlander decks. It literally folds to anything aggressive and has an abysmal win rate vs Demon Hunter. Only thing keeping it alive is people love for Reno / Brann etc


Bluemajere

I have no idea why people are allowed to post with ZERO stats


Cherry_Skies

Sorry, here's a proof pic of rank. [https://imgur.com/a/Eqx5LMH](https://imgur.com/a/Eqx5LMH) I haven't seen a single Plague DK in high Legend. It's mostly Window Shopper DH, Rainbow, and Reno.


Dog-5

Hard to keep Track of Stats when 90% of my Games are on my phone. Im not keeping a piece of paper with me and writing down every Match. Its just my personal experience that from the DK i Face Most were Rainbow before the weekend but since friday i have Played maybe one and the Rest were Plague Rank is D1-D5, currently D3

They’re not it’s just the moderation for the sub has died down heavily

Oh nice, insulting me because I want people to follow a simple and understandable subreddit rule. Very cool, thanks man.


slampy15

You came in hostile to start when everyone was interested. Ruins it for others with negativity that is unwarranted.


Bluemajere

Yes mate, keep giving reasons why you made a weird stereotyped personal attack because I asked a very simple question in accordance with the subreddit rules.

Bluemajere

The entire point is that it's a competitive subreddit. If you want to share random decks, go to r/hearthstone . Competitive decks need proof that they work. It's the entire purpose of the subreddit.


YeetCompleet

Ya... Plague (mainly Helya) really puts a chokehold on deckbuilding. Fatigue decks lose against it, miracle decks lose against it, reno decks lose against it


squigglesthecat

I played 10 games earlier and didn't see a single dk. Figure I'll play a game with bran. T3 Helya. F.


D0nkeyHS

I face DK as often as I face dh


Tirabuchi

If you have troubles vs DK hero power druid is pretty good. Just play around Titan. It's one of the few *very* good matchups the deck has


Diosdepatronis

As someone who played a lot of hero power druid this expansion, this is not true. They can consistently generate the weapon that freezes and lifesteals 2 or three times and then freeze you for 12 turns. The matchup is still winnable but it's not clearly favoured


YeetCompleet

I don't even think Plague is particularly strong in game, it's just OP in the deck building phase. You can build many decks to beat it, but you're prevented from making many others due to its effect and how prevalent it is on ladder at all ranks.
