Tell me what yall think()()
Brood sages//
Copperskins//
Spare Dragon//
Conflicted Drakes//
Rain of Frogs//
Azure Hatcher //
Beast of Terror//
Execution //
Obsidian Butchers//
Kindred Grace//
Lucid Matriach//
Dangerous Suitors//
I want to keep the Matriach to spawn 1 str dragons to synergise with Butchers as long as that stays viable. Thoughts?
Anyone playing anything similar?

Sounds like it may be viable, it just depends on what rank you get to with it since they have varying metas. Seems to have a good mana curve, but a little reliant on specialized abilities, however, dubious hags (this one is good for early game value like brood sages and rain of frogs are, card cycling pirates could be useful to catch up on combos and for early game too) and toxic sacrifice could be useful for combining, same with Mirz or Klaxxi.

I think that's an interesting deck, but many, many frogs. I imagine it might stuff up all the tiles with them and get you into problems if you can't play the Butchers. Or playing agaist another, more versatile shadowfeen deck.
LordDracqi's right about TS and Hags, I would suggest also Gifted. The Brood Sages/Copperskin combo is not so strong, and you don't use the poison elsewhere. Or you might think about Amberhides, to have some body before you can play Suitors.
On the dragons, I guess it would be better to upgade the Matriarchs. Those are a lot of extra hp on the board, and lv2 matriarchs are easy to clear and make a perfect meal for Vindicators and the like. I played a similar deck some time ago, and felt I had to decide between KG and Suitors, as you can play normally only one of them as a follow-up on Matriarchs.
However, interesting deck! Let us know how it works!

I play Sages over TS cause it lets me jump past their guys and most dont expect that from shadow

Right. I didn't see that. How many turns is an average match with this deck?

If I win with Butchers it usually happens around 12 mana. Earlier if I can play it. I try to focus on the dragons, but Kindreds on frogs is fun too if I set it up for the 6 mana turn.
The conflicted drakes help me shoot down my Hatcher and spawn his 4. And drop the 3 str toads down to 1 again for the butcher

Sounds very good. What cards do you usually play at mana 3? And where does the deck have problems?

The Kindreds vs Dangerous suitors I think is my biggest hang up.
I feel like I should have the Amberhifes cause.. duh? Or Curse of Strings because also Shadow power
But I find the Suitors are a super good offense and it just takes a little thinking to play against another Dragon deck. Dont want to let them have a huge suitor or wind up not having yours to stop his. I want my 3 Dmg Bladestorm.
Probably the hardest counter I have to deal with is Beast of Terror or lots of structures.
I always try to focus on dragons, but if I get a frog hand I try to rush and set up a good mid game.
Late game, if I make it that far in Gold rank, turns into a board of all kinds of fun. Doesn't mean its always effective.

So if I don't miss anything now it is Spare/ RoF/Conflicted/ WW/ Hatchers/ Execution/ BoT/ Butchers/ KG/ Matriarchs/ Suitors/ Klaxi. Well, Klaxi is a hell of a card, but the mana curve seems quite steep.

Its taking some getting used to and most times I toss out the Klaxi and Suitors.
If I can get the easy win with em i try for it, but they are only in there to stop my opponent from doing it to me.
Klaxi is cool with Kindreds even thoufh its my only ravens and a 14 mana play.
I usually try for dragon set up, playing frogs to carry me to mid game. If I get an early win its a good Butchers or a lucky Suitors every time
