Flip it with an alchemist.

For me the deck most often killing a turn two Doomsayer is aggro druid, especially now they are playing alchemist on top of those stupid innervate buff openings that gets etched into your memory as happening *every damn time*.

I had a Druid turn 1 coin+innervate fandrahl, killed my turn 2 doomsayer with fandrahl+ wrath and then killed my turn 3 doomsayers the same way.

God I hate innervate.

I meant more the horseshit corsair + patches, innervate, fire fly, mark or the lotus openings.

• 1 x Skulking Geist
  
• 1 x The Black Knight
• 1 x The Lich King

• Lots of Control
• Good vs Aggro
• Good vs Jades
• Good vs Big Priest

• Slow Games - almost always goes to Fatigue
• Very Little Burst
• Susceptible to Burst
• Low Healing
• Quest Mage & Razakus Priest will be challenging

• 1 Jade Druid because Geist was my 29th card
• 1 Secret Mage that had 3 Fireballs and 2 Bonemares in first 10 cards, I didn't get enough removal in time.
• 1 Razakus Priest with Velen - He got a Mind Blast from Lyra
• 1 Razakus/N'Zoth/Elise Priest that out valued me because his RNG was stronger (3 Un'Goro Packs)
• 1 Murloc Paladin (First game with deck and probably made many mistakes).

• Right now this is considered a "fun deck". I'm going to see how well I can climb with it once season resets. Don't expect much right now.
• Typically mulligan for Doomsayers/Maelstrom/Devolve
• Against Control you can be greedy with Elise/Stonehills
• Never keep Moorabi
• Your goal is to be reactive and wait for late game where you can out-value your opponent.
• With a clear board and 10 mana you can Moorabi 3 enemy targets with Moorabi --> Glacial --> Glacial --> Brrloc/Cryostasis
• Cryostasis is the only freeze you can cast on an ally. You might want to use this on your Moorabi if you are playing a super-value game, this makes him a 7/7, he'll essentially have Taunt because your opponent never wants him to stick, so making him a 7/7 means better trades anyway, even though you aren't doing the attacking. Keep in mind Priest may have Death.
• Cryostasis also just fine on an enemy that you plan to Hex/Devolve next turn. Difference between an 8/8 and an 11/11 isn't much.

• Don't be greedy, you have tons of removal and stall. This is standard control shaman but with even more control due to adding Freezes. You should only expect to trigger Moorabi 1-2x, and against Aggro you won't need Moorabi value, so just use your freeze cards for tempo/control.
• Unless aggro draw the nuts, you really shouldn't have an issue.
• Keep in mind 1x Lightning Storm and 1x Volcano, your AoE is lower, it's made up for with Freeze effects. You can save the big AoE for later if you stall with Freeze first.
• You only have 12 points of healing, value your life total.

• I'm currently 2-1 against Jade Druid. You want Geist early.
• Look to Moorabi big boys: Aya / Behemoth / Primordial Drake / Lich King / Kun
• Save a Hex for Aya.
• Devolve early boards, the bigger golems could turn into things you won't want to deal with.
• Play Doomsayer behind a taunt wall to get a board clear off.
• Keeping their board minimal is the challenge, you need to use resources sparingly and balance life & resources. If you don't get Geist in first 20 cards you're going to have a really tough time.

• I've been so annoyed with Big Priest that I actually had this deck in mind when crafting this list. I did not play a single Big Priest last night, though.
• Big Priest have 5-6 Minions, Hex/Devolve everything so their Servitudes are useless.
• Should be GG EZ if you can get the Hex/Devolves early enough.
• If not, look to Moorabi their stuff. Statue probably best target as it'll help remove their threats too, and also heals you.

• Very challenging matchup because you have very limited healing.
• Look to keep Moorabi on the Mulligan.
• You'll need to try to copy their Kazakus (perhaps a few times), or a Priest of the Feast
• Try to get a few Kazakus so you can get +Armor once they're using the Machine Gun, you should be able to survive long enough to expend their resources.
• I played 2 Razakus Priests and lost both so far, haven't copied a Kazakus yet. I was almost capable, was ready to add 3 Kazakus to my hand, and then the guy used my Volcano to wipe the entire board.

• This match is probably a guaranteed loss but like with any Quest Mage, you need to flood board asap and keep hitting face. Ignore his minions and keep going face.
• Play Freeze minions for tempo, you wont need them with Moorabi
• You could try to copy Coldlight to Mill the Mage but it's unlikely to work
• Get Big Boys from Stonehills to go face harder
• Save Hex/Devolve for Doomsayers

• Adding Ysera for another big Value Minion
• Adding an Elemental Package with Kalimos so I have flexibility (and healing!). I have 2 Elementals in the deck, would need more, which kinda ruins the flavor of the deck.
• Adding a Spirit Echo so I can more consistently copy my Value minions. I'm sitting on so many dead cards in a game that I'm hesitant to add another. Could perhaps remove Cryostasis for it. Spirit Echo only likely to copy 1 big thing which is silly. Cryostasis has flexibility to copy from opponent, but is also a Freeze in a pinch.
• Adding Hallazeal to attempt to counter Razakus Priest. Tough to get giant heals without Elemental Destruction. Volcano is the only combo piece and will kill your dude. Razakus doesn't run enough minions to guarantee giant heals.
• Dirty Rat to counter Razakus/Quest Mage. So much removal in hand I'm typically waiting for my opponent to play something so that I can use my cards. Dirty Rat can allow it to happen on my terms. Often a Liability against aggro.
