![]() Let’s hope the new expansion brings us sufficient tools to fight this deck, otherwise only nerfs can save Wild. Unless a huge portion of the ladder starts playing Pirate Warrior, it will continue dominating the meta. Time Warp Mage continues to be the bane of the Wild format. There were no new notable changes in the decklist, with some decklists opting for Starscryer as another cycle card. Most of the matchups are close to even or favored, some being free wins (e.g. Other than that, the deck is very difficult to counter. Jade Druid with Barnes build can also have good results with massive Kael’thas turns in mid game. The obvious increase in Discard Warlock’s presence is not very concerning as the matchup is more bearable. Nerfs to Pirate Warrior and Odd Demon Hunter have significantly improved the deck’s matchup spread and it can now more easily highroll Aggro opponents, while still crushing slow decks. Time Warp Mage reclaims the position of the best deck in the format. Combo decks will have less room to breathe, and Control decks will need to be more anti-aggro. ![]() The general outlook is that is going to be a very fast-paced meta, relatively faster than this one. Please refer to the Class Meta Ranking for in-depth analysis of the new cards. Regarding the new expansion, Scholomance Academy, there are just so many great cards that we cannot discuss them all in this part. This is to show that the meta is never really ‘solved’, particularly in Wild. Darkglare Warlock, Linecracker Druid, Token Druid, and Dead Man’s Hand Warrior are only a few of the decks that have been doing much better during the past month, even though we are less than a month away from a new expansion. ![]() The last month has also witnessed a myriad of new decks popping up on ladder, thanks to the refinement of the Wild veterans. This change has also let to a surge in slower Aggro decks that naturally prey on the Mage, like Odd Paladin and Discard Warlock. As Pirate Warrior and Odd Demon Hunter see a reduction in playrate despite still being good, Time Warp Mage reclaims the title of the King of the Wild. ![]() The new nerf patch has hit Demon Hunter yet again, and it’s marginally changed the dynamic of the meta. If classes share the same score, the class with more top decks will be ranked higher. Therefore, a class can be placed highly on the Ranking system based on one (or both) of these elements: having a few strong decks (deck power) or having many decks (class diversity). For example, if Odd Paladin is High Tier 1 and has a multiplier of 12, it will bring the class an additional 216 points. The highest multiplier is 12 and the lowest is 7. The point system for rating a single deck is as below:Įach deck is also assigned a popularity ranking and a respective coefficient multiplier based on its popularity. Within each tier, decks are categorized to either High tier, Mid tier or Low tier to further differentiate their power level.įor Meta Ranking analysis, we allocate points to each deck from Tier 0 to Tier 3 then sum them up. Highly-optimised decks with extreme raw power that are very well positioned in the meta.Ĭompetitive decks that are not as well-rounded, but can snatch games off of Tier 1 decks or prey on their direct counters.įringe decks that can capitalise on pocket metas that allow it, however, are either suboptimal or outmeta.ĭecks at a weaker power level that require an extensive understanding to be able to pilot well, however, are not recommended for ladder experience.ĭecks that aren’t typically played to get for the purpose of climbing ladder, but still have a decent enough presence to be included in the report. You either play it or play decks that can beat it. ![]() We then collect the result, standardize and categorize them in 4 different Tiers. We collected our experts’ opinions through a spreadsheet, where our Top Wild legend players will rate the given decks with a corresponding score from 1 to 4 in increments of 0.5 (with 1 being top Tier 1 and 4 being bottom Tier 4). ![]()
