Self harm Magmar

#1

I saw something like this the other day and thought I would put together a tentative list to see if others have seen it or have ideas about it. I might be getting something wrong or there are probably better cards for this than what I caught flipping through the deck builder.

If you haven’t run into it, one of the more frustrating things (for me) is the little pups running around (especially when buffed). But a lot of the other thing is… the minions either don’t take damage (pup’s forcefield) or when they do, they hurt everything else even more.

EDIT: One thought I had was maybe cascading rebirth in case you need to kill off something to stop bleeding…

No Elucidator huh? Well at least he’s got Makant- WAIT WHAT?! NO MAKANTOR?!

Spirit Harvester is too bad, considering its cost. You’d better run Lavaslasher - you’ll never be wrong running it.

Also, Oropsisaurus + Warhammer.

Why Rancour? I see a lot of ways to deal damage to friendly minions, but not many to your own General. Earth Sphere seems awkward too for the same reason, but I guess it’s alright.

Honest to god, the Oropsis/Hammer combo was in the first draft… I just felt like that was another deck waiting to happen… but you’re right, it would work. Spirit Harvester swap for Krater maybe or definitely Lava?

@halcyon98, Tectonic Spikes… but mostly it’s a thematic 2 drop with enough health for the early damage.

@mmf - I see…

I just think it’s just an overall weak card. I’d swap it with Young Slithar, which is a good fit in any Magmar deck.

As player 2 you can drop rancour and another 2 drop (warpup) and then play elucidator for 10 damage burst (and that’s not saying your general gets hit while rancour is up)

#8

Rancour is a fine aggressive 2 drop which usually starts as a 3/3, Warpup is pretty weak. Without a buff it doesn’t do anything and Amp doesn’t work on it. Replace that with Young Silithar and you have one of the best 2 drops in the game.

so I was bored after losing to too many top-tier decks and decided to drop my rank to gold to be able to make meme decks viable
I found that self- harm magmar could be a thing and after messing around this is what came up with:

The reason why i revive this thread just because i want to find someone out there who can test it out because i don’t have the resources

If i’m not mistaken, I have seen deck like this in Hsuku’s stream although I’m not remember when. The difference is he used Apex instead of Finality.

#11

Looks interesting… will be a week or so before I have enough for the legendaries.

#12

Like my original one or duzt’s?

#13

I honestly cant remember. Its just a concept back then…but Hsuku tested it and it kinda worked.

#14

you only take a week to get legendary 3-ofs? how much are you playing man. i didnt even get that much in like, ever

#15

Maybe he means it’s a week until payday.

#16

No… I craft a legendary every week or two. Just doing dailies and opening packs I already have most of a set for.

#18

Found an old decklist (from 1.91) and updated it a little bit:

My opponent is the most suicidal lizard I have ever seen on ladder. Puts HIMSELF down to 9 by turn three.
