Nozdormu is only good in cheese decks. Because animations take up turn time, if you queue up enough animations at the end of your turn you can skip your opponent's turn entirely.

For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8kFktbcC3U

Note that this is really stupid though, and I would probably dust Nozdormu.

kripp says he likes norzdomu because of the psychological effect but the card doesn't actually work as written because it is buggy so its useless i guess

No. It works EXACTLY as advertised in constructed and arena. If you think it isn't, then either you are your opponent is experiencing a bit of lag but neither one of you is going to get more than 15 seconds.

@Razorborne, you don't have to think about your plays, because you planned them out turns in advance. That's the point of the card. You are handicapping your opponent A LOT more than yourself. Back in the day any patron warrior that couldn't execute Nozdormu basically lost to it.

I would make nos tempo/control mage and then storm out with firewalker so the animations take forever.

Norzdormu doesn't make sense as long as animations count towards turn time. And if you want to toss a random dragon in your deck to improve your control matchup then Chrommagus is 10x better.

I think two days to plague quarter. although one of my better missions is a paladin win one that's pretty difficult to do in this precon brawl because the paladin deck sucks.

Are you on NA or EU? If you are on NA would you be willing to send me a friend request or post your battletag so I can send you one Razor?

turns out the deck I wanted to make had more rares than I thought so I didn't actually get to make the whole thing yet but I got closer and I have some good rogue rares now that are gonna do me a lot more good than some dumb dragon.

This sounds like a job for Face Hunter. :V

@Razorborne, just a heads up. Rogue is the 2nd worst class in the current meta.

@Szat,

If you want to complete that quest as fast as possible, there's a decent enough Warlock deck consisting of nothing but 1 and 2 drop minions that will complete it in 2 or 3 games while having a 1 in 3 chance to win in the casual lobby.

Even the most aggressive face hunter decks tend to have 12 or less 2 mana or less minoins, taking 4-8 games to complete the 30 minions quest usually.

I thought 2nd worst was Paladin. Worst is a tie between everything that's not Paladin. :V

That's correct Jim, except control warrior beats everything.

I made a control warrior deck and forgot to put in Alexstrasza. Still got me from rank 10 to 5 quite quickly though. Lots of Fel Reaver druids about.

Rogue is fine. I'm currently around legend 500 playing a very cheap Rogue deck. It uses 5 Rares, 2 Epics, and one legendary (Loatheb from Naxx).

Deck


You get a lot of wins because nobody respects aggro rogue's burst damage.

The hunter thought he was the smorc.
But really it was I who was the smorc.

The reason I mentioned the quest was because of Spiderbrawl, it is entirely possible to complete the quest in one game if you are lucky. I also have a Hoblock deck that draws and plays most of its cards in an average game, and most of that stuff are 0-2 mana creatures.

yeah, I've been building Visage's cannon oil deck, but I now have all the rares needed to build this deck too. I'm missing preps, though, and those are gonna take some time.
