The best Warrior decks in Hearthstone

Hearthstone fans may be excited about the addition of the new Death Knight class, but let’s not forget about who many Death Knights were in life: Warriors.

There’s no need for any fancy, unholy zombie magic or praying to the Naru. Unlike Death Knights and Paladins, Warriors set themselves apart in the world of Azeroth by being fueled purely by rage. Quite literally, in World of Warcraft, the Warrior class uses Rage as its resource.

In Hearthstone, Warriors bring this same brand of unapologetic “SMASH.” Oftentimes, Warrior decks take the fight directly to the dome of the opponent, forgoing complex strategy in favor of swift “Red Deck Wins” style damage.

That doesn’t mean the Warrior class is completely devoid of strategy, however. If you’re someone who enjoys smash-mouth, mid-range, or even Control-style gameplay, Warrior probably has something for you.

Right now in Hearthstone, Warrior has one of the lowest win rates in the game, coming in at 44.8 percent on HSReplay at the time of writing. That being said, some of the decks you’ll see on this list currently have nearly a 60 percent win rate. If you’re a Warrior main in Hearthstone, you can probably pick one of these up and get the job done.

Since March of the Lich King debuted in early December, odds are more balance changes could be on the horizon. Keep this in mind if you decide to spend dust crafting any of the decks on this list.

Here are the best Warrior decks in Hearthstone.

Enrage Warrior

Right now, Enrage Warrior is sitting around a 58 percent win rate and a total dust cost of about 6,200, depending on which version you go with. The above version is slightly more expensive but also has a higher win rate as a result. With this deck, you’ll take advantage of Rokara, both in her minion and Hero card forms.

This deck rewards you for having your minions take damage, hence the name Enrage. Certain cards like Decimator Olgra have wild benefits that are gained via having damaged minions on the field. Olgra gains +1/+1 for each damaged minion and then attacks all enemies immediately via his Battlecry.

Quest Warrior

If you’ve played Hearthstone anytime since the release of the United in Stormwind expansion, then you’ve likely faced down Quest Warrior. Since Raid the Docks joined alongside United in Stormwind, Quest Warrior in some form has been a force of reckoning.

Raid the Docks is a Pirate-themed Quest that breathes new life into the old Pirate Warrior archetype. You’ll also get to make use of the Colossal minion Nellie, a giant sea-beast who allows you to summon Pirates to crew her ship. If you’re a fan of Pirate decks or Quest-style gameplay, definitely give this one a go.

Charge Warrior

Arguably the weakest viable Warrior archetype right now, Charge Warrior sits at a 46 percent win rate on HSReplay. Funnily enough, even though the deck is the most expensive Warrior archetype on the ladder currently, it also has the lowest win rate.

As the name implies, this deck revolves around buffing up Charge minions in order to chip away at your opponent. Captain Galvangar for example has a Battlecry that gives him +3/+3 and Charge provided you gained at least 15 armor this game. The rest of the deck is built around gaining armor and prolonging the match until you’re ready to smash your opponent all at once. If that sounds like something you’re into, Charge Warrior is the deck to try.
