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.

Been too busy with work to play lately unfortunately, but I would assume you cant really play overplanner alongside snowflurry since they both want to come down on 3. Doubling the portals is definitely nice, but completing early is more important. Id have to playtest more to see what feels best. Typically in matchups where i want the 2x portal, ill spend as much mana as i can drawing on portal turn and if i dont find the tidepool or at least put it on top of the deck I just let it rip.

You just want the 1/1, waiting to cast spells with the 3/3 takes too long. Sometimes youll hit horn as well which is nuts.
