Poll: Which Class Decks Interest you the most?
In our continued efforts to provide relevant content, which kinds of class decks are you the most interested in? You can select up to three classes. Be aware that this poll will help decide what kind of content we push in news, but this is by no means the end of seeing [insert lowest loved class here] in deck spotlights as good decks will always make an appearance, and we try to achieve a healthy balance of all the classes.
@poll : Priest is so slow, how to get to legend when the season is only 1 month? Do they play aggro for a while then switch?
That is literally the exact same as Sjow's - there isn't one card that is different. Can I go play a tournament with a copy pasted deck and have my name put on it too?
Sjow doesn't, and can't, own the rights to a deck. Because there are so few variations possible with any effective Control Warrior, you could consider all variants the same thing; "Sjow's" version is built around competing with all types of decks, another that runs two BGH and TBK would be more effective against Handlock. You swap cards in and out reflective of the meta, and happening to land on the same deck list as someone else doesn't make your deck any less yours.
But to respond to the most important point, that this deck list is being attributed to Karlis in this post, is not discrediting Sjow in any way or giving the rights to Karlis. It's simply proving that this deck is tournament viable and that the winner of the tourney used it quite effectively. It is not the deck list that Karlis is deserving of, but rather the deck's success.
One complaint I have about your observation is that sjow is never credited with actually coming up with the decklist, if I were to take a song you made and post it on youtube without saying where it came from I would get blasted for it. Now you might say music is different but its really not, every single thing that music can be has been done. Everything is just rehashed just like decks on hearthstone. The main point im trying to get across is if you are using someones deck list which you did not come up with on your own you should say something. not that big of a deal to me but some people consider it theft.
If you want proper credit then give it where it is due. Monk and TL created the archtype and the core deck you are trying to say is Sjow' who changed 2 cards. Before that you can thank spacewizard for the pyrosmith deck which lead to the TL warrior control deck. So I will not credit some one who adapts another persons deck and calls it their own.
Hey All,
Sorry if my comment got under anyone's skin!
Believe it or not, I didn't mean to be arguing to give Sjow credit for this list - I only meant to point out how silly / strange it was to see what has been the most popular / used deck since GvG came out featured on the Front page of Hearthpwn as though it was a new deck - that is all!
I agree that arguing about who gets credit for what is a non issue!
BTW @TheChiv - certainly didn't mean to say you should have credited Sjow for this - Love your stuff on Youtube and watch it all the time!
I know you do man its no biggie but this week I have to say the trolls got to me...Its my bad for letting them. Either way Im gonna keep on trucking and they can keep on sucking.
While I love the zeal, its a tad over the top. I knew Holysnova from back during my tour of hell...AKA ManaGrind. AND DIVA...WOW.....not even remotely sure how to take that but ok.....And yes I let the trolls get to me and like an idiot I fought back. I know better and to be honest was a lack in judgment that I take full credit on. Though there might have been some spiked Egg Nogg in play during this time, however I accept my mistakes rather then place blame.
Its cool man. People are gonna be the way they are. I just need to remember not to stoup to their level and just keep doing what im doing. and again thank you for your support. Sadly these same type of people give justification to those who seek to end our culture.
that control warrior deck needs more legendaries
your deck spotlights are okay-ish but the last one for example was totally useless.. i dont say its bad deck its just almost the same old classic control with 6 legendary cards in it.. i mean srsly who the fuck wants to see that on front page it's like a huge sign - "Hearthstone - where pay 2 win begins"
i voted Rogue,Druid and Paladin..
rogue and druid becouse these 2 classes sure have alot of hidden tricks right now in gvg and many ppl didnt figure them out that well (they just run the old strategies with few mechs in and stuff) ..
also paladins got some love but damn now that everyone has a finisher play by turn 9-10 and paladin having Nothing even close (avenging wrath? naah) makes paladin still a bit awkward if you want to seal the game somehow.. it's more like "outvalue,outplay and outcontrol ur enemy on the board and u will have the lethal u want eventually" which means that as long as u win you can lethal.. once u start going behind not really..
No druid love in the popular decks... Im glad that hunter is least interesting though
My answers for "Which Class Decks interest you the most?" were the classes I play the least. Maybe I'm just looking for a reason to play those classes?
Nothing new with that Control Warrior deck. Very standard and practically no difference between Sjow's. Something I saw that was really cool in a Control Warrior was an Explosive Sheep to make Whirlwind a bit more effective. It was actually pretty great!
Yeah - I started running a 1 off Explosive sheep and it was working really well against Mech Mage - but then I stopped seeing Mech mages so I eventually took it out. Was pretty awesome though!
