    'Rage Quit Wolf' - A Surprisingly Good Annoying Darkclaw Deck

    I made this Darkclaw deck as a complete joke, and took it to ladder for fun, I was veryt impressed by it and found out that it works surprisingly well against T1 'imba hero decks'

    Basic Combo:
    4x Big Teeth
    3x Speed Strike
    4x Lone Wolf

    Late Game:
    4x Regeneration
    2x Full Moon

    Board Control:
    4x Rabid Bite
    4x Now Your Mine
    2x Captured Prey
    4x Shriek of Vengence

    4x Fire Snake


    Finer points with this deck:
    1) Darkclaw halves melee dmg to him, making him extremely annoying to deal with decks with creatures.
    2) With Lone Wolf in play, he heals at 2 a turn, this doesnt seem much but combined with Darkclaw is amazing
    3) Speedstrke + Teeth eats up armor n weapons by the opposing hero


    This sounds like a real dumb deck with only fire snakes as its ally. But works extremely well, and in 4/6 games i have had, the opposing player simply Rage Quit after a while.

    Why this deck works:
    1) Ignores creature control: eg Curse, Icestorm, Captured Prey, Mind Control etc
    2) Ignores hero control: Nishaven, Eladwin
    3) Hero is very tank + Heals for free every turn

    The idea behind it is to use the UNLIMITED teeth + speed strike to target the opponent hero directly, while tanking everything with Darkclaw's amazing passive + Lonewolf to heal

    To counter low level allys: Now Your Mine is wonderful, esp vs Jasimine, Aldon, or Gargoyle

    To counter high level allys: Rabid Bite makes them seriously annoying, esp on Ravin

    It also chews through armor and weapons very fast, usually heros wont have the armor or weapon for more than a turn or two. (because you use your puny little 1 dmg teeth twice a turn). Vs Gwen and Amber, they dont deal much damage with weapons when they are not attacking, and eating up 2 of their weapon usage just annoys them.

    In late game, if they manage to mass up a big army, thats when Capture Prey + Regen comes in handy, and when you need that additionaly turn to deal dmg + heal, Full Moon makes your hero invincible for one turn

    Its super fun to play with, and its pretty fun when the opponent gets fed up with your Lonewolf + Darkclaw passive and just Rage Quits

    Rage Quit Wolf!

    I love your title, even if "Wofl" is a typo.
    Make it looks like Rage Quit Rofl but you know its Wulven

    Otherwise, this looks like a pretty standard Lone Wolf build.

    Looks fun, but sadly it's just fun, it's an automatic defeat against majiya, priest and maybe gravebone :P

    Majiya doesn't auto beat Lazy Wolf. Too much healing.

    With my Amber deck, this would be an auto defeat. Once the big teeth are all gone this deck just doesn't have any damage output except through decking the opponent. I think the only time I actually lost to a Darkclaw in v1.25 was one that was running allies which surprised me enough and beat me by getting 2 PB on board.

    4x Regeneration and 2x Full Moon?

    I run 4x shriek on my majiya, most people use at least 3, but ok, maybe you can do 1:3 against majiya, need to play to see exactly the win rate :P

    That's a lot of healing.

    Yea you run 4 Shrieks, but you're going to leave my WBT alone?

    I wonder if chamander hit on something with ultra-weenies being good for Wulven. Just sort of ping your opponent to death.

    Oh, It's the Lone Wolf card that gives healing, tough it was full moon :P

    Well, I hope the deck become tier 2 at least, I'm almost sick to face the same decks over and over.
