‘If you build it, they will come.’
Taunt Warrior is an archetype that hasn’t really had all the cards to be a top-tier deck. Blizzard keep pushing new taunt synergy cards out though.
With the release of Gadgetzan we have Stolen Goods to buff taunts, and some beefy taunt minions like Public Defender and Alley Armorsmith.
This was a fun deck to watch Thijs playing. It’s pretty strong but is obviously a slow deck so those pesky Pirate Warriors can be a problem if they get a fast start.
Bad and useless deck. I learnt in a lot of bad experience.
I did pretty well with this deck last season, and the META hasn’t changed much. You will lose against decks with effective board clears and against aggro the first few turns are rough, but when you’re ahead this deck snowballs, it’s awesome.
