    +1 for any DC deck that isn't stall! \o/

    I am experimenting with a similar concept for an agressive DC, didn't have time to playtest it thoroughly yet though.

    €: No item destruction? That's ballsy. ; )
    Also this would be the first rough idea, inspired by the Defiance of the Wulven principle. Though I'd like to have 3 Behemoth as fallback option in there somehow. First instinct would be to remove Shadowspawn since it's rather situational, but on the other hand it works so well with DC's ability.... as I said, need time to test it. : )

    yeah... no item destruction trying something new. cut down all situational cards (other than ones for your own allies). just grin (with wolf teeth) and bear it.

    i would like 2-4 more allies but then i would have to drop at least 1 full moon and 1 bloodlust, which then, makes the deck less effective as a whole. but you have DCs ability and 5 weapons to use also. im thinking of dropping one PB for a 4th pack wolf.

    as it stands, it a HUGE hitter. with the allies and weapons. and even if you fall behind and lose board control in later turns, a double drop of full moon and bloodlust combine with a double strike from DC can win you the game from behind. just two allies out and a FM and BL will do 8 damage themselves, plus 6 and plus whatever the allies will normally do... equals OUCH and "what the heck just happened???"

    i like yours but i decided to go without the NYM and CP. with the way i have set this deck up, i dont need them, just wipe them out with my allies and DC. imagine that, DC attacking allies.

    shadowspawn is very good in wulven decks... i LOVE it in my moonstalker deck. and it can fit really nicely in DC as well but its EXTREMELY situational no matter how good it can be. waiting till after you activate DCs ability means its a dead card in your hand for a turn or two BUT, using it, DC doesnt take the 2 damage. anyway, i would use it with DC, just not this particular deck.

    going for as much efficiency in "dealing death" as possible and as the meta stands now (i should say player meta), this deck is a huge surprise

    PS: if you notice, this deck follows your rule of six (no item destruction) but some cards cross "rules" which gave me a couple more extra cards to fill the gap.

    You may want to find way to increase Speed strike for shadow font synergy.

    (weapon synergy)
    Speed Strike + Active Weapon +

    (hero synergy)
    1 SE (from every turn) + Shadow Font + triggered DC ability =

    2x 3 dam via weapon + 4 replenished resources (if JD is the active weapon)

    Spammable, as long as you have active weapon and shadow font...

    @TJM, i know all that. however, i did make a change to my deck, i made it 3 speedstrikes, the deck count is now 42. i also did make that PB and pack wolf change. so its now 3 pb and 4 pack wolves.

    @padawan pete. its actually pretty easy to regain board control. just 1 or 2 allies with a bloodlust or full moon can help retake control. but the biggest thing, since darkclaw has allies, he can use his ability and speed strike to help regain board control. he doesnt HAVE to always attack the opposing hero. a misplace on the full moon doesnt hurt as much either. you got the bonus for your allies in their attack. and you get to use that bonus again next turn, since the card is back in your hand. since this isnt a stall deck, one turn without invulnerability doesnt kill you. truthfully, using misplace on a full moon is an EXTREMELY bad play against this deck.

    i played an eladwen, i had him on the run from turn 4 (after turn 3 speed strike and turn 4 JD). im sure it was a huge surprise, him going "great, a DC deck" and everything went just like it would normally go. i didnt cast any allies at the start. i got to turn four, attacked twice and got back all 4 resources and dropped a gargoyle. im sure that was a huge surprise. he later supernova'd to get rid of that gargoyle and 2 fire snakes that had put a huge hurt on him with a full moon. he misplaced the full moon and my DC took that 5 damage. so what, i had reg in my hand. i cast teeth and he had put a poor quality on it... haha. two shadowfonts later i had won.

    i havent laughed during a match like that since my 1.27 elementalis gave me so much fun. it was great

    about the only thing i am worried about is EA and armors. i have no item destruction, but they great thing about this deck is i can get rid of armor with my allies, do extra damage OVER the armor protection while im reducing the durability. EA, ill just have to endure. its not that common anyway. mostly in solo heroes like DC. and i THINK my DC will tear apart any other DC, why? because i will get some early damage in with my allies. i will have allies out and i have protection just like my opponent. just have to wait a bit. could be wrong about that, will have to see. if he puts out a lone wolf... oh well.

    Lol. You wouldn't have an ice cubes chance in hell at beating my standard dc cait.

    Mostly because it has every single strength you are weak against.

    depends on what you believe hell is like. hell was originally believed to be frozen and very cold. heat was associate with life and light. quite a bit of artwork devoted to devils and such, they were blue, not red.

    so, could you clearify on what you believe hell to be like so i can reference the ice cubes chance in hell thing

    (Insert vugular reference to women here)

    The heated kind. I think the idea of frozen hell came from the norse, with the myths of frost giants.
