We're so close to the expansion launch that you can almost hear the Demon Hunters screaming for vengeance. If you just can't wait, you can already create a Fireside Gathering and open some pre-order packs to get that Outland feeling. And if you've already played the Prologue and unlocked the class, you might be able to play the Demon Hunter deck they gave you against Heroic Solo Adventures.*
Okay, I got a bit distracted there. Now onto the thing we're here for: Wild decks from our awesome community members!
*I've seen mixed reports about that. I personally was able to play it, already reaching the heights of lvl 21 with my Demon Hunter.
Quest Mage
I already regret spotlighting this deck (no offence anchorm4n) because based on its 61% winrate, it's pure evil. Play your cheap spells to tear your opponent apart with Flamewaker and finish the annihilation with 0-Cost giants with an extra turn. EVIL!
Richman lives up to his name with his Highlander Quest variant. The deck is not for newbies, that's for sure.
Deathrattle Hunter
MemeMachine's Hunter doesn't have many minions but there's no need to, as you can just as well steal whatever your opponent has played. Barnes is so crucial to the gameplan that the deck has two Master's Calls just to increase the chance of having him in hand on-curve.
If you want more Deathrattles, theremon has packed this deck full of them and added Flark's Boom-Zooka to get them out faster.
Menagerie Shaman
The doors to the Menagerie are open again and Beasts, Dragons, and Murlocs are running rampant. Luckily shaveyou included Shudderwock to this list, with its claws that catch you might get this tribe madness sorted out.
You might remember seeing stewartpid's Reno Menagerie Paladin in the comments of last week's post, but I'll properly mention it here again.
Gonk Kael'thas Druid
Plenty of low cost spells to trigger Kael'thas and feed Yogg, Secure the Deck to help Gonk, Ysera to give you a ton of value, Jade Idols for potentially going infinite: Dorkpork's deck has plenty of things to do on your way to victory.
Sam1664 has awakened another Legendary Beast, Barnabus, from its slumber with this Quest Druid.
Star Aligner Cubelock
Star Aligner hasn't enjoyed the popularity it had before Aviana got nerfed, but that didn't stop SwaguarTV from creating this meme-y version of the classic Cubelock. Tome of Origination will be there to help you trigger Star Aligner's Battlecry in the lack of Druidic mana cheats.
The memes didn't stop there as Swaguar made another star-aligned deck: Galakrond Shaman.
Bonus: Yogg Mage
I usually stop at five spotlights but how can I say no to Yogg, especially since it got requested last week. Morkimus has written an excellent guide on how to worship the RNG God and even added a section about possible Outland inclusions once the expansion goes live on Tuesday.

Its always funny to me how Open the Waygate tend to produce powerful, polarizing decks that nearly everyone except the one current playing it absolutely hates, and yet for some reason it dodges just about every little nerf to wild cards. At least the list added here doesnt have that retarded Archmage Vargoth synergy with waygate.
I just instantly concede when I see the quest played, if it's a terrible matchup anyway, saves loads of time xD
I've always found Hijo's Quest Mage to be the best list for ladder.
Thanks for featuring "my" deck (I surely wasn't the first one to come up with it)! I understand the hate it gets, it's a frustrating archetype to play against. I'm currently grinding out the last 50 wins to the 1.000 hero portrait with this out of nostalgia. Back when I started playing Hearthstone (summer/autumn 2015?), Tempo Mage was the first really competitive deck I built. It was centered around Mana Wyrm (pre nerf at 1 mana), Sorcerer's Apprentice and Flamewaker. Good times!
fuck quest mage.
Yesssssssss, BURN THEM, CUT THEM IN HALF, ALL OF THEM...... i think i develpoed some kind of mixture of hate and obsession againts this archetype. I literally never hated any archetype more than this(maybe odd pally, but even that can be countered by control deck to some degree).
.... How dare you
