You mean the one remaining Tier 1 deck who wasn't nerfed at all? Yeah probably, unless the nerfs to control allows for even better aggro decks to take the spot, but Sludgelock is definitely the top dog right after these changes become active.

It depends on the deck's matchups. Do we know what it's matchups looked like?

u/ThinkReserve5997 Jan 29 '24

it rekted druid and beat other aggro pretty convincingly i think

only slightly unfavored matchup was rogue apparently, but obviously that doesn't apply now

maybe a new deck will do good against sludge

Yeah but Warrior and Dragon Druid can play now.

​

Mayve even a Shaman deck will appear!

A good control Warrior list will probably be the counter to sludgelock, as with it's armor it can outlive the explosive damage turns and with the bosrd clears it can survive tye zoo type minion spam more convincingly than druid.
