Matt “Noblord” Koutsoutis became the first GosuCup AM champion of the new year, and this is what he played.
Noblord used five different decks in his championship run through GosuCup HCT AM #1 on Friday, January 13, as he ploughed through the competition relatively unopposed. Noblord dropped only four games in total over the seven rounds of Hearthstone he played and has secured valuable five HCT points towards the Winter Championship standings.
Unlike Wirer, winner of the first GosuCup HCT EU tournament last week who surprised people with his N’Zoth Shaman, Noblord's line-up was standard. The aggressive core of Pirate Warrior, Aggro Shaman and Miracle Rogue was supplemented by the control staples of RenoMage and RenoLock, considered to be among the top tier decks in the current meta.
