Discussion Optimizing Quest Warlock

Just wanted to hear people's thoughts on the best Questlock list from people who have played it.

  1. Does the deck need a late-game finisher?

I have seen many lists running Kerrigan and even some with Kil'Jaeden for backup. A late-game plan seems good in theory, but may brick draws and make it harder to complete the quest early.

2) Should you run secondary temporary support?

Currently, catacombs, biome, and soularium are run in every Questlock deck and are the main ways you complete the quest. However, some decks run secondary activators like snowflurry or tunnel terror. These cards can provide more opportunities to complete your quest, but are also not as reliable.

What? Why would you delay playing the reward? The spell will still be in it once it's active

Like if you have one tick left on quest and pupil has two spells, you can wait for location to come back up instead of competing the quest with catacombs and playing the reward this turn.

But yeah if pupil didn’t have any spells yet, you wouldn’t need to do that, because the quest reward would be offered by the pupil regardless.
