Here's my list if you're interested (though I've swapped Fireguard Destroyer for a second Hex). The best times to use Evolve is when you'll get a serious mana advantage (Nerubian Prophet, Thing from Below and Tuskarr Totemic are great for providing this), trade advantage with low health minions and strengthening weaker turns when you need to totem up.

Yup I only saw it once and a Warlock fucked me over with his 0 mana evolve and other broken discounted Shaman cards.

Wow had my first rage-friend-request. I feel like if you're playing a yogg-saron joke deck you probably shouldn't get too perturbed with it not working out all the time.
pretty much. like getting mad at a coin toss really, it's like, "you use yogg and it killed you, not my fault"

If you take the game seriously and you play Yogg you've fucked up somewhere.

They should bring back some of the GvG cards that didn't get a chance to shine because of all the broken shit.

Not every list running Yogg is necessarily a joke deck, but yeah you should know what you're getting yourself into when playing that card.

WOw so just found it if your Cthun is entombed, the opponent gets their stats for it
I think if you can strike the right balance of neutral card draw and Warlock junk, you can make it get a 50% winrate.
renounce darkness is so much fun. just played it on turn 2 and got rogue. discounted SI:7s, raptors, and beneath the ground made for a fun and easy win.
does anybody know if there'a any other rules about it, do the cards you put in determine mana cost on the cards you get it out? Is it better to run more neutral cards? or all warlock cards?
Anybody else try it at all?
@drkirby
do you have any ideas? I just filled my deck with low cost warlock minions to make sure I had early tempo and hopefully a full board before renouncing...

2 years, pace yourself. C'thun decks are general good, easy to play for new people, gets them wins and they feel good, but they will eventually top out and thats fine, Blizzard seems to have done well with it. .A veteran player can obviously do better with it but I imagine higher up the less you'll see him.
I think the real God that has potential is N'zoth.
Same here. The Ragnaros is basically a Healbot on crack as well.

Same, especially Druid.
You can tell Blizzard REALLY wanted the deck to work because all the minions for it are borderline insane, or in the case of stuff like Klaxxi, Twin Emps, Arrakoa, Shieldbearer, etc. just fucking broken.

the new spider wolf is actually a way better fit for hunter decks than creeper ever was. The two spiders being beasts makes it much more threatening and the higher attack means it does more work on the board by itself.
It doesn't need abusive or knife juggler (or pre-nerf undertaker) to get value like creeper did.

Yeah C'Thun Druid is just insanely degenerate, pile of stats after pile of stats and a CTHUN CTHUN CTHUN here and there. But really that's just Druid in a nutshell, maybe Warrior can build a list with actual agency but I couldn't try it myself yet as I keep pulling a billion big Amanis instead of C'Thun minions
which ones?

You pulled a twin emp don't you dare complain

What happens when C'thun gets sheep'd? Can you bring it back with a Doomcaller?
Renounce darkness for one, burgle for my stupid judo rogue deck.
Also crafted xaril and shadow casters but I don't feel so bad about those.
It's not bad if you have fun with it

I don't think so, it has to die as C'thun.
I'm not sure it is OP yet, but when they curve out with big ass minions along with their removal options it is unstoppable. I suppose the same can be said of any good deck, but this just feels like the typical play your minions on curve, let your opponent deal with it and win or lose style game play.
Yogg has been pretty underwhelming for me at the end of day 1. You can generally rely on two thinga, him clearing a small- to medium-sized board and drawing an ASSLOAD of cards, but even the tiniest of lethals are a total crapshoot. There's just not that much burn in the game.
Fair point

So apparently your C'Thun gets buffed even when you don't have one.
Playing Renounce Darkness Warlock, got enough of the C'Thun buffs card that it actually activated my Klaxxi.

Wherever it is apparently includes while not in your deck. Legit.
No wonder they don't let you lend cards.
Btw new Trolden is out PogChamp
That's exactly my problem with it, and I wasn't implying it to be op. I think it's too early to talk power levels yet (except for Aggro Shaman which is as busted as expected, fuck Faceless what a moronic card to print alongside the BGH nerf), it's all about how it once again discourages decision making and enables auto-piloting. There is absolutely no nuance to C'Thun Druid in its current form.
Playing against C'thun Deck is not that bad, its let me play my cool shit.. can't say the same to other netdeck
Decklist yo.

Sounds great, but there is no way I can find a spot for him in my current build.

I think imma craft that mofo now. Yesterday was rogue day, today I think I'll jump into paladin. Not sure if I wanna do nzoth quite yet though.
I pulled Twin Emp and Soggoth from the quest packs. Good shit, I really wanted the twins.
Since I have Soggoth and Yshaarj or whatever I am really tempted to try Astral Communion Druid but I never actually pulled any copies of it.
I'll post it in a sec.

I had my Yogg thoughtstolen and played against me. It ended up causing the Priest to lose. SeemsGood
It's fair to craft epics if you're not starving for dust. You're guaranteed to immediately start pulling dupes but as long as they're for a deck you really want to play it's worth it.
you won't regret it, hes fucking amazing
