Zoo Lock Q?

[adamlad101]

So im using the basic zoo lock deck, is this any good for ranked? And also should i tick the "rush profile" using zoo? I just want a good fast paced game which deck is the best Thanks

Zoo lock deck sucks in ranked for several reasons, one is that the bot cant handle these cards properly;

Death Coil
Soulfire
Doomguard

You'll basically get #rekt.

But if you're going to use a zoo deck, try both modes. I think you'll have some better luck with "rush".

Thanks for the reply ^ I recently just got the bot and im just wondering what is the best use for the bot, to make gold? to get ranks? And also hows the best way about doing that

I have played a Zoolock deck for a while now.
I play it in ranked and I bounce between 17 and 20 in rank with a winrate that has settled around 42-44% which is not fantastic but not terrible either. I have my bot set to Normal (Not rushed) however. I am going to try the Rushed mode this weekend to see if it makes a massive difference to the stats (But after over 600 games played by the bot for this deck and at 275/500 for my golden portrait i'm not expecting a massive difference in the stats to be honest.)

Weridoz is correct however, Soulfire and Doomguard which I have in the deck is not optimized and the bot tends to make some mistakes with it repeatedly. However, they are strong cards in their own right and the bot has used them well as often as not (Mainly due to a low draw power of the deck meaning there is often not cards lost when those two are played) but they could certainly do with some improvement in the logic. However that is true for so many things with HB right now.

The best use for the bot right now? Farm the daily quest + daily gold and use it to farm golden portraits & levels for your heroes. Don't expect any miracles and certainly do not expect to go very high in ranked, no matter the deck.

But keep an eye out for the custom deck's that are being worked on. That is when I hope HB will come into it's own

So much this. Hoping for great improvements over time, until that day comes when you can bot to rank 10ish I'll just use the bot for grinding gold, golden portraits, quests and levels (golden cards).

It's sort of frustrating needing to play pleb-cards (not golden versions) and the portrait is really neat as golden.

I would go for a murloc rush deck for a lock. I had the best results with that.
