===============================================================

This deck started off life as silly jank and then, unexpectedly, took me on a 28-0 gauntlet winstreak that's still ongoing at time of writing. The AI grossly underestimates Trumpeting Warhowler and the wacky shenanigans you can do with it (especially with Zuberi, Crunch, and Mokhnati) plus does a really poor job of predicting fast spells like Ice Bolt. Putting all this together means you can build up some absurdly strong topdecks with a few zuberi swings and burst out surprise lethal with ease.

Good job on the lyrics lol.

Still, only have one zuberi and given how few decks he's in (although I like to throw my single copy in decks for the lols) I'm not likely to craft another.

Will try it out

Haha. Killer Queen lyrics put a big smile on my face !!!

Glad to hear you got a smile out of this pile of nonsense :D

"Your ideal goal in brief is to get killer on Zuberi, Outlands Warlord, then draw as many cards as possible with him and Warhowler on the board."

Why would it matter that Zuberi has Killer in particular, here? I know he'll get to trigger his ability while attacking a creature of choice, but that still seems somewhat mundane.

By itself +4 attack to the top unit of your deck is fairly mediocre. With the number of units that accelerate hilariously well with that attack bonus, however (ChaFury, Crunch, and Groundbreaker are all especially good) then that "free" trigger from a killer attack starts to carry a lot of value.

+1 for excellent Queen parody skills

Really enjoy the concept of this deck! Lots of fun and Killer is one of my favorite mechanics of this game. Great use of some of the new cards.

My only concern was the card draw. I found anytime I didn't get Sodi, I could end up without answers.
I know Crunch is fun because of overwhelm, but I've always found him underwhelming (pun intended). I dropped 4 Crunch in favor of two more Honor of Claws and two Preyfinder. I like the later because it plays into the Killer, and it's a solid early game body against aggro.
As for your concern about the Banner in the market, I totally agree. I dropped it for a Ferocity of the Bear and enjoyed the results.

Thanks for the fun deck!

Hey thanks for the response and I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the deck! I agree that the draw package could be improved a bit, but I think 4 Honor of Claws is at least 1 too many and I'm of the apparently unpopular opinion that Preyfinder is a bad card...it takes 3 killer attacks for it to equate to 1 HoC after all. It's a good card for snowballing a lead, but Howling Peak already serves that niche in this deck.

I also think that Crunch is honestly one of the best units in this list; he accelerates extremely well from both Inspire effects at our disposal and helps with the draw niche. A 7-attack double damage killer crunch is truly a hilarious spectacle to behold and I strongly urge you to reconsider your stance on him.

Finally, Ferocity of Bear in market is a pretty neat idea - thanks for the suggestion and I'll try it on my next run!
