Hearthstone: 5 popular decks featuring Reno Jackson – Renolock and others.

We take a look at a current trend from Hearthstone and present 5 decks that make strong use of Reno Jackson.

We will be rich!

The expansion “The League of Explorers” has brought numerous new cards into the world of Hearthstone. The biggest impact has probably been made by Reno Jackson, the overzealous and somewhat greedy adventurer. His card has a unique healing effect that is unmatched in the game. This was reason enough for us to publish a small column on Reno Jackson.

Numerous decks have now made him standard. We show you 5 decks that are circulating in the current meta. Please note that there are often slight variations of the decks, which is why we are only presenting the “archetypes” and will not go into every small change.

“Renolock” Warlock

Particularly popular is the Reno Warlock, here in a variation from Mart23. This deck not only makes use of our healing adventurer but also includes Stallag, Feugen, and Dr. Boom as some tough minions. Since “Silence” has become significantly less popular in recent weeks, it often happens that the death of Feugen and Stallag calls forth a Thaddius who deals swiftly with the opponents. If that is not enough, one can simply follow it up with a Lord Jaraxxus and dominate the field with weapons and the infernal beasts.

“Natural Remedies” Druid

There are particularly many variations of Reno decks among Druids, which is why we wanted to focus on one. Especially fun is the solution from ChaosFollowing, who skyrocketed with his “Natural Remedies” Druid. Strong removals like Doomsayer or Wrath make the deck noticeably more control-oriented than a Ramp Druid, for example.

While there are some cards duplicated, like Depths Oracle, Starfall, and Poison Seeds, it is still easy to keep track with this quantity.

“Highlander” Mage

The Mage class has made Reno Jackson extremely popular in Hearthstone as well. Particularly spells like Ice Block give the necessary time to play the healing literally at the last second and turn the tide once again. In JJ’s example deck, no card is duplicated, so one does not have to count in their head what has already been played. Other legendary cards, like Archmage Antonidas, Dr. Boom, and Alexstrasza round it all off.

“Rafaam+Reno” Paladin

If one legendary card is not enough, one simply includes 7 of them in their deck. At least that’s how the “Rafaam+Reno” variant of Odemian’s Paladin decks handle it. Besides staples like Dr. Boom and Tirion Fordring, he also has Kel’thuzad, Lord Thief Rafaam, Sylvanas, and Loatheb on board to keep opponents busy for as long as possible. No single card is duplicated, so no regard needs to be given to cards that have already been played.

“Reno-Monkeys” Warrior

Finally, we also took a look at the Reno Warrior from SongOfSaya, which unites several fun mechanics from “The League of Explorers”. Alongside Reno, Elise Starseeker is also part of the deck, which over time provides the golden monkey that swaps all cards in hand and deck for legendary minions. This is particularly valuable when one doesn’t have a good “late game” in hand and wants to switch from control to aggression. After a few test rounds in Hearthstone, we can confirm: It’s fun. Just not for the enemies.

What do you think of these decks? Do you like the “Flavor of the Month” with Reno Jackson? Or is there another card bothering you?
