In my opinion the best decks in current T2 are husk and heartbeat( brachts version -1 reach +1 twister). Husk has good matchups with everything and has no auto losses. And with the right hand can win faster than heartbeat. Heartbeat beats aggro and can pull wins from control. The worst matchups for hearteat in my opinion is vore, ur domain, and owling mine. This is not such a bad thing because vore and domain are seeing less and less play and owl is just bad unless you get paired against 14 control decks *cough* ruel *cough*. Plz post what you htink are the best decks right now and why you dont think husk and savage heartbeat are.

ok, while i have yet to even test husk, i do know a little about the rest of the format. heartbeat has decent matchup vs just about everything, so long as you know what you are doing. imo, greater good based deck is one of if not the best deck in the format. it can easily outpace aggro through wraths, and then lock down every deck. i also think WUR is a good deck, but less so than greater good. WUR, the firemane control. and as for ghost dad, its tottally overrated and hand and hand has better matchups overall than that.

i completely agree woth you about ghost dad. its the anti-aggro version of owl. good against aggro bad against everything else. american dream is ok in my opinion it just doesnt seem to do it for me. and gg is a very stable deck but agian it loses to heartbeat (which is underplayed) and has tossup matchups vs control

hands down heartbeat. just cuz its not the easiest to pilot dosnt mean its not a good deck. o and btw the twister SHOULD be a pyroclasm. its the tech. heartbeat ignores your opponent's side unless they run islands or kami of ancient law, but u run 8 counters and main deck pyro/boomerang. hearbeat can play draw go if it isnt put on any pressure too. also the transformational s/b is hot. against vore a took out 1 pyro and added 1 jitte, elder went all the way while my opp was holding counters for the combo so :p vore.

the only deck you need to worry about is zoo, but that match up literally is about the coin flip. no lie. at the ptq i won the roll, so i won game 1, my opp won game 2 and i won game 3.

hearbet is the most well rounded deck in the format, able to play aggressively to win by turn 5, or play draw go until your hand is good enough to go off.

owling mine gruul or heart beat is the best and greater good is no where near the best jus for the fact taht OWLING MINE RAPES IT and hearbeat is a great deck and also savage twister should not b pyroclasim jus for the shear amount of mana u get u can wipe out ne thing cause pyroclasm is usless agasint the grul since amost every thing has a DEF of 3+

heartbeat is good, but zoo is too fast for it, vore is probably the hardest match up because you need alot of lands to stick. any deck with more counters than you is obviously gonna be difficult because of the small number of cards they have to counter to stop you, not to mention any deck running KoAL or mortify.
