I was scrolling HSguru and saw that XL HL Questline and Steal Priest have decent playrate. Do any of you have experience with them?

I've never encountered the decks but from a glance they both seem quite bad. I especially remember Illucia and Harvester being a terrible combo since you can often only steal one or two cards.

The decks in question:

Is there any information available on the chinese meta similiar to HSguru?

With hearthstone growing in china it feels like a lot of statistics aren't accounted for. I don't suspect that the chinese meta is all that different from the western meta but it would be fun to know if they are valuing cards differently and playing something that we do not.

Would Patches be played if he were in standard today?

Under a recent post i made a controversial comment that Platysaur is the best neutral 1-drop since Patches, and this got me thinking what would happen if he were in rotation today. Would Token Druid prefer to keep Platysaur or include [[Small time Buccaneer]] and patches instead? Would No Hand Hunter and Aggro Paladin do the same? Would Patches be strong enough to make Pirate Warrior an arctype again?

I absolutely love this deck right now. I didn't record my games this time either, but my winrate was better than last time. When i settled on a final deck list i lost only once to Boarlock and once to Warrior between D5 and legend. Notably the list doesn't include [[Animate Dead]] which allows greater freedom to include cards that would otherwise muddy the resurrection pool. The deck also includes [[Pip the Potent]] that acts as a better [[Careless Crafter]] in the sense that it is more immediate because it doesn't have to be killed off to get more and better healing spells, and also allows you to get copies of your removal. Together with [[Palm Reading]] and [[Power Word: Synchronize]] she can also be chained over several turns to get insane amounts of removal, draw, and healing. [[Power word: synchronize]] also synergizes well with [[Cleansing Cleric]] and [[Xyrella]]. If you hate boarlock and CTA Paladin then try this.
