What can he do? Are you afraid of aoe? Will flamestrike / blade flurry scare your 8/8s and 4/10s? Are you trying to slow down miracle rogue? The literal only match up loatheb helps in is freeze mage, which is gonna shit all over you despite loatheb. Waste of a card.


in any case,he helps you,gain some tempo/time to survive.i find him more useful than second owl or second dark bomb.thats my opinion,thats yours.after several games with handlock,i realise that i dont need 2nd owl and i need loatheb.

Well considering you can't name any match ups or anything loatheb actually helps with.... Lol.

Maybe every other handlock is wrong.... Maybe they are all wrong and you are right...... It's not impossible, but i wouldn't hold my breath. Lol

Literally no one else runs loatheb though. Not the occasional person, literally no one. Like i said, maybe EVERYONE ELSE is wrong... Maybe. I certainly wouldn't hold my breath though.

looks pretty solid to me
the only card i would actually swap is 1x owl into 1x hellfire ( depending on the current meta )
loatheb is not really needed at all
one chow is also fine while starting with coin, it gives some early aggression and helps not to overdraw while lifetapping
he can also be played into a mirror entity

Solid advice, personally disagree about the owl, but solid advice none the less.

double owl in the current meta can't be bad (you have owl targets in every matchup)
you can owl your ancient watchers if needed.

I would cut siphon soul and add a second hellfire / shadowflame (preference choice).

same for jaraxxus - I don't think he fit's in the current meta.


Agree

I like rag in handlock over jarax in certain metas

I think one hell fire is good enough, shadow flame more good for better clear seeing that you awlays ahve minions wiht 4+ damage.

Loatheb is pointless in handlock. A 5/5 for 5 isn't what handlock is looking for. What is this? The miracle rogue meta? Second owl > loatheb in every single way imo.



No way lol...I don't run one in mine but to say it is pointless is ridiculous
