Aaand Unleash the Hounds was finally nerfed (to 3mana). How absolutely melancholic.
Not sure about the viability of it now.
Probably still playable in midrange, but rushdown might abandon it.
I've come to the conclusion that I'd almost definitely run Mukla if I had him.
He's a great tempo gain, giving you a 4.5mana unit for 3 mana, only downside being that your enemy gets cards, but he still has to use mana to play those cards, so the tempo gain is quite huge.
Searz-I've been playing quite a bit of ZooLock in ranked and I've found that running 2 Doomguards is really nice, but since you do own Leeroy maybe you should run 1 Doomguard + Leeroy.
Young Priestesses seem like they should be among the core cards for this deck especially if you are going for Shieldbearers.
You mean that they're good because I can protect them more easily?
Because the HP buffs are much better on minions with attack than they are on the Shieldbearers.
Yeah, I'm probably gonna add one more charge minion. Whether it's Leeroy, Commander or Doomguard is something I'm not sure of yet, but right now Leeroy seems likely.
I've been running one Owl for the longest time, but I found it to be a dead draw more often than not. This deck is all about emptying your hand as quickly as possible and keeping up an insane tempo, so it doesn't lend itself well to keeping one card in hand until you get a good chance to use it.
Oh yeah, those should be in the list.
I've tried them, and they're pretty good, but not good enough to warrant a definite spot in there. I'm still thinking about whether they're worth it.
I edited my previous comment with a few changes.

1 Abusive Sergeant and 1 Ironbeak could also help your deck out I think.

Also I'm currently experimenting with Amani Berserkers have you tried running them?

Got to rank 4, made some changes.
These cards are pretty much locked down for me.
That leaves me with 6 slots open.
But which of these 19 cards are worth running?
I'm currently thinking that:
The Leper Gnomes aren't really worth it.
While the spell immunity can work wonders, it's in many other cases pointless and means that your Faerie Dragon is essentially a Raptor(blank 3/2).
The Blood Knight is too weak on its own and needs a combo to be powerful. Combos when your hand size is generally very small are inherently harder.
Running two Dark Iron Dwarves is a bit too slow.
The second Doomguard makes it too easy to end up in a situation where you discard your other discarding cards.
Running two Dire Wolf Alphas is likely a good idea considering the many divine shields and two Shieldbearers. (but I've yet to decide)
That leaves me with these 12 cards to fill 6 slots.
Okay, I'm probably gonna abandon the two Priestesses. They're just too much hit or miss. Sometimes they're useless and sometimes they're great.
I really feel like the Dwarf is a bit too slow, so skipping that too.
Running two Abusive Sergeants could potentially clog up your hand, but one is great, especially with Shieldbearers, so I'm probably gonna run one.
Now there's just 7 cards left to fit in those 5 slots.
Okay, scratch what I wrote before.
The Priestesses are great. They're essentially 2/2 for 1 mana and can be far more than that if you're lucky.
Besides, I need the 1-drops. They help with emptying my hand.
I'm also reversing my judgment on running two Doomguards. Sure, the risk of losing cards you don't want to lose is pretty high, but they are incredibly powerful, and ultimately worth the risk.
I'm getting ****ed by defensive Druids and Big-handlocks, so I'm thinking of running the Black Knight. I think I'd rather run him than an Owl because he KILLS things, unlike the Owl, and this deck is focused on board control, so the killing part is wonderful.
I'm dropping the Berserkers. They very rarely enrage, and as a 2mana drop they're really not worth it.
This is what my deck looks like currently.
When I get Mukla I'm probably gonna skip an Abusive Sergeant or an Argent Commander(to keep my curve a bit lower).

The moment a religious person unknowingly calls his own ways stupid: "And lol. I highly doubt you have magic powers. If you proved it I would believe you, but since you 'refuse to', I choose not to."
I've been in and out of rank 3 a few times today. Progress is slowing down, but I'm still rising. I think I can take legendary this season.
Would that make me the first on Mobafire to reach it?
Deck is unchanged from previous iteration.

People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache†and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege.

Got another Malygos. ****.
I have about a third of the legendaries and I've gotten like 4 dupes already. (and I had less when I got the other dupes)
Also, got a HUGE streak of bad luck, going on a losing spree a few days ago from rank 2 to rank 7. Almost gave up on legend completely there.
But started trying a bit more and I'm at 5 currently, rising fairly quickly.

I'm a strong independent black mage who don't need no mana.

May the topdeck be with you, always.
Okay, I decided to scrap Zoolock because it has less favorable matchups against the 2 of the 4 main decks played right now(and against the less played fifth).
And I decided to pick up Taplock (aka Bighandlock, which is a terrible name), because **** ROGUES. Seriously, **** em'. So boring to play against, and Zoo has a lot of trouble with them.
Taplock doesn't have any trouble with Rogues though, so I was laughing manically every time I was crushing one :D
I'm now back in rank 4, rising slowly but steadily.

I just played vs TotalBiscuit. I almost feel special :3
Although the guy seemed to be really spamming emotions and considering that I thought TB lived in America, I doubt it is the TB that I know. BUT STILL I PLAYED VS A TB! MUHAHAHAHA
Change is gooooood
