Hearthpwn

This is a stupid brawl, almost might as well flip coins.  My deck is full of cards not even playable in arena whereas  before I had already reached 9 Mana my opponent had already played Fire Elemental and 2x Kallimos (this is not even talking about the random spells)

Funny Moment

Round 1

Opponent played Weasel Tunneler just for RNGesus to cast Earth Shock on it. =( Poor guy

Is this only Standard cards?

I champion brawls like this against the ladder babies, but I have to say, losing streaks in these kinds of brawls feel so f'ing bad.  But the problem is not the brawl, it's that Blizzard has every sense of forward movement in the game built around WINNING.

My hopes and expectations are 1) to get a pack and 2) to progress on dailies.  But both insist that I win (at least, I seem to always get the "win" dailies).  So I play a 10 minute game, lose at the end, and then do that 3-5 times in a row, and I just want to light shit on fire.  I turn the game off hating everything about it and having felt like I've wasted an hour of my life.

It doesn't have to be this way.  It would be better to not offer a pack and not apply brawl to dailies, because then I would play without any mental tie to winning, and I would enjoy it so much more.  You can call me an idiot and say "hey idiot, if you don't like it don't play -- this is a free pack you entitled jerk!"  But our brains don't work that way.  Most of us enter brawls prompted by the idea that it will move us forward in the game, not just purely entertain us.  The other dailies like casting spells are perfect, but they're not all that common, and they could be so much more imaginative with those kind of quests.

worst brawl

How is this brawl any fun? My opponent got call of the wild on turn 4 and I got astral communion leaving me with an empty hand. In another game, I had no minion while the opponent had 4 minions and he played another minion that casted frost bolt to hit me in the face. Pure RNG brawl if you like that sort of thing.

They should do a flip coin brawl, if head you win, if not you loose. It would have almost the same level strategy.

 I wish people knew the difference between "lose" and "loose".

i found something interesting with this brawl. I was playing a friend and played curious glimmerroot against him. It gave me the choice between doom, hellfire and mistress of pain. So as the decks have only minions i picked the mistress... Thats when it told me it was wrong and it was actually hellfire.

I casted a Krul that pulled my other Krul and both Mal'ganis I had in my hand.

Then it casted corrupting mist...

I want the "Top 2" Brawl back. Was one of the must fun ones..

So if you are a new player, this is a great brawl.  Yes, I get it, a lot of bitter, resentful ladder players are saying the opposite - it's just the salt talking.  So good news is following:

• level playing field - so what if they are gold or have Tespa back, you can still win, even if your class has 10/20 basic cards 
• see all the spells - what better way to learn the mechanics than to see them all in action, especially crap you don't have
• you can improve your odds - spells are random in cost, multiple small minions will tend to benefit you more than one big one
• random spells tend to benefit the caster - this is why Yogg was first panned by the 'experts' only to later give rise to nerf campaigns.

So the bottom line is you can get a lot of gold, level your heroes, and learn a lot about the game.   Don't let some ladder burnout's salt spoil it for you.

Soo lame. When are we going to get the great summoners competition again. Hands down the best brawl ever.

Interesting bug: Played curious glimmeroot and choose a minion, while the other cards were spells and it failed.playedit later and got a hellfire out of it.

My guess is that somehow the decks use some sort of core to generate random decks for some reason and it's the  base deck(begginers decks)? Weird

 Don't play brawl if you don't like it, getting a win of this brawl isn't so hard, as much as random this brawl seems it actually has a clear strategy, when behind, play a lot of small guys, while ahead play 1 big guy at a turn or just heropower and pass.

Every game I've lost so far was from a pure dice roll and what was in the other persons deck.

A really fun brawl, 5/7 would brawl again. Super RNG based brawl but still playable, i've managed to go 10 - 2. Completed all of my quests :D
