Cheap Renault decks. Reno the Warlock's review by Tnatym. Starting hand and detailed tactics

With the release of the Vile City of Gadgetzan, the face of Hearthstone has changed. The shaman throne has been shaken, and new decks have appeared on the battlefield. For the priests, the addition turned out to be very favorable, primarily because of the two class legendary cards. An expensive but powerful Renault Jackson deck is an example.

Deck composition:

"Forbidden form"

"God's punishment"

"Cleric of Northshire"

Shadow Word: Pain

Shadow Word: Death

Power Word: Shield

"Stolen Thoughts"

"Excavated Evil"

"Glutton Priest"

Circle of Healing

"Burial"

"Master of Potions"

"Herald of Rock"

Garrison Commander

"Treasure hunter"

"Servant of Pain"

"Brann Bronzebeard"

"Azure Dragon"

Emperor Thaurissan

Auchenai Priestess

Courier from Cabal

Cabal Talon Priest

"Mind Control"

"Maryele Pure-hearted"

Renault Jackson

Sylvanas Windrunner

"Once the Captive"

Dragonfire Potion

Actually, the basic card is Renault Jackson, which fully restores health to the owner if there are no identical cards in the deck. As a result, the whole structure is created around it, which determines the character of the deck. First, it is designed to be dominated in the late game and deprived in the early game, so creatures need to be matched accordingly. Secondly, the use of legendary cards arises, which already have to be taken in a single copy.

Renault Jackson - legendary card, a savior in a desperate situation. Sometimes literally one move is not enough to rip out a victory, and Renault gives this very additional move. And even not one. Unlike "Ice Block" "Renault" and the problem of death from "fatigue" can solve. Full recovery allows you to hold out against aggressive decks, when in the middle phase of the game, death is breathing in the back of the head, and go to the later stage. Indispensable.

« Kazakus"- a new legendary card for 5 mana crystals for mages, priests and warlocks, developing the theme of unique copies. Under the same conditions as Reno, Kazakus will allow you to create a special spell for 1, 5 or 10 mana crystals. Each spell has two characteristics, which the player will choose in turn from three options. The spells themselves are powerful, but the main advantage is the effect of surprise and the ability to determine properties and prices based on current conditions. Indispensable.

« The Captive Times"- a new class legendary priest card. Makes use of Hero Power free until end of turn if there are no duplicate cards in the deck. It significantly expands the possibilities of combinations with treatment, and simply increases its volume. The sooner it appears in your hand, the more useful it is. Combines magically with Maryele Purehearted and Prophet Velen, although not in this version. Indispensable.

The control

Any late decks have to somehow defend themselves from the attacks of all kinds of hunters and shamans, mainly by exterminating everything that the enemy gets out of his sleeve.

After the release of the "Light Bomb" from standard mode, the priest often suffered from a lack of massive damage. This was partially compensated for by Excavated Evil, but now there is a Dragon Fire Potion that deals 5 points of damage to everyone except dragons. There are many dragons in this deck, so the weapon is powerful. In any case, you need to collect 2-3 massive damage cards like "Circle of Light", "Circle of Healing" (if you have cards that turn healing into crowns), "Uncovered Evil" or "Potion of Dragon Fire". Both "Herald of Doom" and "Dirty Rat" will help to slow down the capture.

Individual weapons of murder: one copy each of "Words of Darkness: Pain", "Words of Darkness: Death", "Burials", "Mind Control". Combinations like Confusion with Reducing Potion will work as well. Against early aggression, both "Potion of Madness" and "Divine Punishment" are good. The deck requires you to use different cards, so several options will do at once. In any case, 3-4 point killings and the same number of mass murders are required. The main damage to the enemy is provided by creatures.

Draw of cards

By the 6-7th move, it is desirable to have a full hand, which will allow us to weave intrigues and create insidious combinations, spending part of the cards to defend against the enemy. A sufficient set of cards is provided by the universal "Power Word: Shield" and classic combinations with "Cleric of Northshire."

Azure Dragon, Acolyte of Pain, Blood Mage Thalnos, Treasure Seeker, and Stolen Thoughts are also designed to provide a consistently full hand.

Creatures

The trump card of the build is making the most of the hero's power. Raza makes it free, Garrison Commander allows you to use power twice, Moriel enhances it. Accordingly, cards with the "inspiration" mechanic like "Confessor" or simply creatures related to healing - "Prophet Velen" look good in the deck.

Emperor Thaurissan is a versatile legendary card that plays well in any slow deck that collects a lot of cards.

Glutton Priest is one of the most effective cards for restoring health, and at the same time it is very tenacious. The "master of mixtures" will help you hold out until the later stages.

The Cabal minions again bring additional cards and works especially well with Brann Bronzebeard, which doubles their effect.

There are also alternative versions based on other priest archetypes. In the dragon priest deck, the main striking power is made up of legendary creatures like Ysera, Maw of Ice, or even Deathwing. As a deterrent to early aggression, the "Duskwatch" and "Dragon Envoy" remain key. Then the "Twilight Dragon", "Book-serpent" and "Destroyer of the wing of darkness" are useful. Of the new ones - "Draconid Spy".

Tactics

Thirty different cards do not allow you to develop a clear universal strategy. It is difficult to predict the order of receiving cards and possible situations. The most important thing is not to use cards just like that, from each you need to squeeze the maximum benefit. It's better not to set anything at all than to waste "Battle Shout" or another feature: the deck is designed to receive direct attacks, but all cards require special conditions to unleash their potential.

Kazakus, Forbidden Form, and Cabal cards, which allow you to "dig" spells of your choice, give the assembly a high adaptability: they are equally useful at any stage of the game, providing the opportunity to choose what you want. For this version, it is important to save the "Auchenai Priestess" on the darkest day, healing turned into darkness may be the last chance to win.

Similar decks with Renault are still in creative search. It is worth picking it up depending on personal preference and available cards. At the junction of updates, there is always a place for creativity, go for it!

The first wing of the League of Explorers was just published, and already one map made so much noise. Yes, I mean, at first glance it was not a very playable card, but now Reno Jackson is wildly storming the meta and various decks with him are flooding the ladder.

Play ranked games now and you will immediately be faced with decks built around. New decks with Renault now cover absolutely the entire meta, from rank 20 to TOP of Legends. In this article, I want to collect on this moment the most powerful and popular decks with Renault Jackson.

If you haven't played Reno with decks yet, then you should know what is not highlighted yellow when its effect kicks in. So, if you have several copies of cards in your deck, then you will have to manually calculate whether Reno will kidnap you, or use third-party programs. As Ben Brode wrote, they still cannot implement this lighting effect, according to him it takes a lot of processing power, since the card will constantly ask to compare each card in the deck and the correctness of the lighting, respectively, but in the future the developers promise to fix this problem. Also, we do not recommend using Renault if it is on your table, see below why 😎

Bold RenoWarrior from Kripp's:

So kripp decided to try it out, and the result was a Fatig Warrior Control deck (on Fatigue). But kripp has his own take on decks built around Reno Jackson, he has 2 copies of certain cards in his deck, since most players create decks with Reno with only one copy of the cards.

Below you can see how Fatig Reno Warrior plays:

Kibler RenoLock:

Here good example new Renault decks. Brian Keibler with his "In search of Reno the Warlock" managed to rise from rank 6 to the TOP-500 of Legends in 4 days, using exclusively this deck. Of course, he made the most of the surprise effect and the opponents simply did not know how to play against such a deck. Try playing with this deck.

Best decks with Renault Jackson:

RenHunter Deck: Midrange Tempo Reno Mage Deck:

Fatig Reno Mage Deck (on Fatigue): Freeze Mage Deck with Reno Jackson:

Today we want to present Reno Mage deck from Rage which he took top 2 Legends of Hearthstone on the American server.

Reno Mage deck top 2 Hearthstone legends

Interesting assembly Renault Maga from Rage is somewhat reminiscent of the old Freeze Mage, as it contains several atypical direct damage spells and Alexstrasza that will help Renault Magu complete the party quickly. In addition, the build has excellent deck-busting potential, which is so important in any matchup. If the combination of Alexstrasza and several direct damage spells is not effective against slow decks with excess healing, Ronin, Archmage Antonidas and Emperor Thaurissan will come to the rescue, who will give you tons of resources to complete the party if you give the Mage time to play all these creatures in the right order. The build from Rage does not suffer against aggressive archetypes, it has a lot of tools for the early stage of the game: cheap creatures, point and AoE removal - all this will help to live up to Renault Jackson... Interestingly, the author abandoned Brann Bronzebeard, it is obvious that the stake is not on the Potion of Kazakus, although even without a double battle cry, the Cabal leader remains an extremely dangerous and effective creature in the deck.

As promised, we are posting a translation of the brilliant Renault Magu guide from yesterday's post. You will definitely not be disappointed! 🙂

I absolutely love this Reno Mage deck and climbed to 14th in the Legends Rankings with a 72% overall winrate. A little later, I improved this result, and quickly took 1st place. It happened just the other day, therefore, I can describe the game with this deck in as much detail as possible, based on my feelings.

When playing against Midrange Shamans, do everything to control the table, but do not waste your best removal, but leave them to counter. If you are faced with a choice of which creature to eliminate: or - always choose the second. important to win, but control of the table is key. Do not let the Shaman get cards with help, and always consider the potential damage from, to be sure that you do not die. If you are not sure, apply it just in case.

You may want to leave, but don't.: , , , .

Warrior (Tempo Warrior: 50/50, Patron Warrior: Auspicious, K'Tun Warrior 50/50, Warrior on exhaustion: Impossible to lose)

If a warrior has fallen into your opponents, you can rejoice at this. In the worst case, you have an equal opponent, and in the best case, if it is a warrior on exhaustion, you will win an easy victory. The key to defeating a Warrior is to quickly identify his deck type. If this is a Tempo Warrior - calmly play yours in order to keep up with the pace, you just don't need extra ones from. If you are playing against a K'Tun warrior and a Warrior on attrition, try to save the coin for the rest of the game. Against Patron Warriors, do not play until his combo for the second clear.

The main thing is that NEVER do against a warrior - do not use your class ability on an opponent's hero in the first turns, until he starts increasing his Armor. A few points of damage will not solve anything, but the cards that the Warrior will get with the help of an unlucky magician in your face can solve the game.

When playing against K'Tun Warrior, do not let yours work, and do not summon until K'Tun is summoned. You simply will not survive the consequences of its appearance. In general, when playing against warriors, towards the end of the game try not to waste your cheap removal, because they can be easily turned into. Try to use your spells as carefully and carefully as possible.

Against exhaustion warriors, try to play very carefully, they have 2, 2, 2. Try not to have more than two good creatures so that they do not become easy prey. Play only at the end of the game, after making sure you have lured out all the removal.

You might want to leave, but don't: , , , .

Rogue (Miracle (and other Rogue combos): Auspicious, Deathrattle Rogue: Auspicious).

In matches against Rogues, it is very important whether you have enough time to find, and. Fortunately, you will find them much more often than not 🙂 Matches against Rogues are easy to describe: “saw something? kill that something. " Kill anything that moves. There are not so many creatures in this deck, your spells will be enough.

Renault lock deck Hearthstone appeared after the release last update, League of Explorers. She has a lot of variations, combo renolock, demon renolock and others. Common is the presence of Reno Jackson, which restores the character's full health if there are no duplicate cards left in the deck.

Considering that the class ability of the warlock inexorably reduces his life, this card has become a salvation in cases of confrontation with aggro decks, or if the battle, on the contrary, drags on.

The first was the classic handlock deck with the addition of Reno, but now this deck is practically not played. Then he received an adaptation of the most popular demon lock at the moment, to which Reno was also added. This deck is very effective due to the large number of creatures, and Reno makes it possible to fight for longer and draw cards even at later stages without the risk of dying from a couple of spells or weapons. Another interesting and very common option is the comborenolok. Everything here is tied to the use of the Arcane Golem or Leeroy Jenkins in one turn in combination with the Faceless Manipulator and overwhelming power in the amount of two pieces. This becomes possible thanks to the Emperor Thaurissan, so it is important to play it on the 6th turn. Then a combo is played and lethal damage is inflicted. Actually, at the moment, these are the most effective renolock decks that will help you take a legend with experience and patience.
