I’ve been running Reno Warrior at mid-legend, because I was going up against an annoying amount of Demon Hunters, and it counters it very well. The only real decks which were giving it trouble were Hunter, if it gets a hot start, and Death Knight because plagues shut down the deck. Anyways, Hunters are rare near the top of the meta, and Death Knight is fairly popular, so I added Tony to my ETC to have a play against the plagues. Since adding Tony to my ETC I have not lost against DK, if you hold the Tony until you have your pieces and you can gauge an appropriate time to play it, it give you alternative plays to win the matchup. Also, I realized that outlasting the mid-late game push of DK is a win condition in itself if you are able to effectively deal with the plagues. Either way, if you play Reno Warrior, you should be running Tony in your ETC for the matchup. It’s way more reliable than trying to Dirty Rat out Helya or actually rushing Bran into play.
