Possible Future Upcoming Brawl
A post briefly appeared on Twitter and Facebook (since deleted) which said this week's Brawl was going to be Underdog Rules. This is not currently the case of course, but we might be seeing that in the coming weeks.
Underdog rules! Each turn, if you’re losing by more than 3 health then a random minion rallies to your side.
Top Grand Tournament Constructed Decks
There have been quite a few new decks out there on the ladder since The Grand Tournament hit yesterday. We've recapped some of the most popular decks created by the community for your enjoyment below.
What kind of new decks have you been playing with?
TGT Pack Opening
We've opened up our packs and made a video out of it like many others on the forums. How'd we do?
How many packs did you open up, and were you happy with the results?

New Hearthstone Gear in the Blizzard Store
New shirts and other products were added to the Blizzard Gear Store today, a small preview can be seen in the banner below. It is worth noting that there is a free shipping promo going on if you spend at least $50 USD. View all the new items.
Should get a hearthstone shirt to grow up just like Frodan...
A lot of unique decks coming out of this expansion, makes me excited for the future of Hearthstone.
The Lag! lol. too many players opening packs. Adds to the anxiety.
It took me 30 mins to open my packs when TGT came live.
Sad, no new Tavern Brawl this week. Oh well, you win some , you lose some I guess.
154 packs gave me 6 Legendaries: 2x Anub'arak, 2x Bolf, Gormokk, Wilfred Fizzlebang and about 5500 dust after DE.
That's a very interesting brawl! Looking forward to it!
good braw Kappa
Underdog seems awesome 'cause we'll see pepole damaging themselves to get the advantage, and that will be a lot of fun.
I wish Underdog Rules was the brawl this week, that sounds really challenging and fun!
Warlock's probably gonna be the king in this Underdog brawl... Kinda wish they would ban specific classes from being constantly picked in some brawls. Or at least make it so that you have to change your class every time you get a win. Sometimes all the fun gets completely ruined by everyone playing the same exact classes and decks, so once you get your free pack there's absolutely no reason to ever play these kinds of brawls again since everyone is just going to be a netdecking meanie.
Opened 100 packs yesterday, and amongst others I got 2 Eydis Darkbanes and 3 (!) golden Void Crushers...
Warlockmania
Underdog Rules meta: Warlocks vs Priests, and Voodoo Doctor will shine.
Looks like it will take a while for new decks to sattle, the meta is really fun to play so far tho. I didn't have such a good time while loosing 2000 ranks in a while.
I guess you should put me in the lucky column. Opened 50 packs got 5 legendaries, including a golden Confessor Paletress. The rest I was not impressed with (Fjola Lightbane, Gormok the Impaler, Bolf Ramshield, and Icehowl).
Edit: Confessor and Bolf came in the same pack btw!
Good brawl to test new legendary cards.
Warlocks everywhere during the Underdog brawl.
No kidding!
Priests and Voodoo Doctor's also to heal those warlocks.
At least no face
Do you think that another class will try to take advantage of that? Maybe mage since they have a lot of burst, and AoE so they can easily deal with what little health the warlock has.
Edit: I take that back, a warlock deck with a lot of burst and potential heals would probably be better. Best of both worlds. Here's what I think:
