Now that defile is gone and certain aggro decks are somewhat frequently encountered (druid, shaman) I’m in need of a replacement. Truth is, I feel like my deck in general lacks 9-10 valuable cards and I won’t get around in crafting some cards. With the thought in mind that lord godfrey is going to rotate eventually and that there are still three expansions in the year of the dragon to come, I’d rather be conservative with my dust and don’t spend it on any other legendaries yet.
Basically I’m looking for a spell or a minion which has defile like mechanics. Other then being extremely useful, it is also fun to set it up like a domino.
Suggestions welcome.
There are no other domino like effects or at least no other domino effects that use one card, you can kinda simulate it with wild pyromancer but your not going to get more than 2 uses out if him unless your paladin or priest
While it isn’t exactly Defile-like, the Dread Infernal is a solid 6-drop that has a somewhat similar impact.
Vargoth + hellfire is the closest thing you can get to Godfrey (3+3 damage that can clear deathrattles). But it’s 2 cards, leaves nothing on the board and does 6 damage to your own face.
Alternatively, there’s always Geddon. Only once per turn, but overall very effective to deal with druids. Also hits your face though.
Yeah, dread infernals are still a solid choice to include in a deck. Thing is, I’m kinda struggling right now with my deck. While I initially climbed unexpectedly fast through the ranks with my initial deck when ros was out, I dropped in ranks considerably after a while. Would like to post my current deck list(s) I have, with some slight variations here and there between them. Maybe the lack of godfrey isn’t even the problem.
