Pretty much why i keep pom and eternal servitude against priest.

It's so crazy to define jade druid right now.
It has the draw capability of a miracle deck, it has the ability to tempo out insane amounts of stats in a single turn, it has ramp consistency then we've ever seen before, it still somehow manages to fit silences into the deck, while randomly just simply strong 8 drops like lich king or primordial drake, it gets an insanely powerful and flexible hero power from malfurion to either finish the game or gain armor and out last you, a 5 mana spell that can easily summon a 3/15 even against a tiny board state, and 7/35 against a strong one, while still somehow managing to run tech cards like black knight, I mentioned they have ramp consistency but didn't mention they have 8 ramp cards so pretty much guaranteed to get one or two...

I was actually lucky, didn't have those in my mulligan. And after that I hoped he was big priest, and I got him.
What's your deck?

It's not that favored. Vs is reporting 47-53 favoring murloc paladin. That is barely much better than a 50/50 match up. Now druids are teching in black knight sometimes, but more often it seems like they have spellbreaker , along with spreading plague. Those match ups aren't as punishing to the druid as it should be.
The meta atm is just broke. Jade druid's worst match up is not even a 10% unfavorability if VS is accurate. Gotta see rank break downs to really get a good idea.
Using this. https://www.vicioussyndicate.com/deck-library/paladin-decks/aggro-paladin/enders-murloc-paladin/ It just gets under both Jade and Aggro Druid.
This isn't standard Murlocadin, it's just all-in face.

List? I pulled Moorabi and I can't get it to work. Freeze shaman seems trash to me. I'm not great at deck building though I admit.

fuckin' called it, man
When's it safe to craft stuff
Its very good against priest actually. You basically get to steal their stuff right back.
Also adding in skulking geist completely nullifies jade. YOu simply remove their card and freeze them and steal their good minions. Its by no means a fantastic deck but it can do work.
I am hesitant to post any list this early, still needs lots of refinement
Druid are safe to craft. It's either you end up with great cards (2 UI) or you'll get back your 800 dust.
I have been playing Druid since beta, it's easily my favourite class but now I feel dirty.
I still get beat with the most popular Jade deck though, usually due to poor starting hand, Quest Mages with Antonidas or Aggro locks that just get too big a head start or lucky with their removal / charge minions.

He's one of the two cute doggies in this set! I'd be happy to unpack him.
Because I want to reset my pity timer, and I still want Valeera eventhough she's mediocre right now.

Mage attempts a comeback against my DK Control Warrior with a Lich King. I Black Knight him. Most satisfying tech card ever.
You're a bad person.
That seems insanely lame. What a lazy way to implement it.

Get tired of losing druid mirrors, switch to murloc pally, lose to other aggro decks...
Circle of self loathing.

I'm on a good streak with control warlock, somehow I have beaten murlocs, priests and even hunters or druids. Is a very versatile deck, but I'm always at risk of losing, since I end with little HP most of my matches.
Well, at least I'm on rank 6, for playing casually is fine I guess, I hope to reach 5 at least

Been having a lot of fun with Deathrattle Hunter in the lower ranks (15-14) and it seems like it could be something. Of course, Druid is a pain just like it is for everyone else but not a lot you can do about that. Just thought it was great that I was just wondering how I could fit in an entire board clear and finally got this combo;
Also had both of my Terrorscale Stalkers in hand too.

If you get a good murloc opener you can at least trade evenly early on and you have the advantage lategame, it's all about how lucky you can get with your opener. That's what makes that deck so scary, it can potentially keep pressuring any deck from turn 1 to turn 12 or so.
Finally got around to playing control paladin since I opened golden Uther. Actually performed well against Jade just by outlasting them, but I only played against 4 last night, went 3-1. Probably small sample size... I want to try the beardo bully package, but I don't think I want to spend dust crafting beardo...
list?
I had basically all control pally card, but not playing it since xpac roll
still in fence crafting such like corpsetaker tho
I'm not convinced on corpsetaker yet either. Playing more tonight. Curve is pretty heavy though, so idk what I would cut them for. May need some more help against aggro, 2nd kodo probably.
He never lived.
I'm quite pleased that I guessed the DK power levels pretty well. I called Druid being the best followed by Warlock and Priest and then Jaina (that could be wrong lol).

I mean if that's never lived then there's only 2 DKs right now.
control paladin gets deleted by priest, basically every control deck is hard countered by raza priest and quest mage, you don't need jade druid but you have them to counter you anyway! Priest is the second most played deck on ladder on almost all ranks if you look at live report, it's been like that for about a week. Contrary to popular belief, murloc paladin is less frequent. On legend, 1 in every 5 games I get is against Raza priest. Others are druids lol. I'd rather play against druids, that way I know how I can win. Priest match up is RNG garbage.
Of course in this unhealthy unbalanced environment, there is no room for Uther or Jaina or even Valeera. Final design team fuck up big time.
