Lol 5 games played over all accounts, this brawl is so sooooo bad haha. I don't think you could offer a worse gaming experience with the hearthstone engine if you tried.
Again they really need to stop with this philosophy of "let's make funny stupid things happen". It's just not a long-term engaging experience. The game is still decided really fast OR really randomly, but never by decisions. It's just a frustrating mess for everyone because Eric Dodds thinks what players love is when ragnaros misses 7 minions and goes face for lethal. That's basically his idea of how the game should be. Garbage.

See you next week.
No, but pin players with extremely new cards against better players with 10 mana.
That constitutes a good playing experience, not this brawl though, it's too level pegged.
Favorite match on this one is I got Lorewalker Cho and put it out so I could then play Portal as many times as I could, stuff my opponent's deck, and then run my own spells with no issue, while preventing them getting anything but Portal. It was cruel, but...

It's not Eric Dodds. Haven't you seen the Brawl request threads? This was ALWAYS one of the top-requested brawls by players. If you don't like it, blame your peers, don't blame Blizzard.
That said, I agree with a post you made awhile back - I think this would be more interesting if one side had a normal deck and the other side had Unstable Portal.
The endless cycle of tavern brawl Step 1: Blizzard releases a brawl with an RNG factor, or a rule that favours certain decks Step 2: People lose because of RNG or said decks Step 3: The become filled with salt Step 4: They bitch on the forums and call it the worst brawl ever Step 5: Repeat
The words "Worst brawl ever" have lost all meaning at this point

Yes this brawl was definitely a most-requested one so they had to make it some time, but the webspinner brawl really showed, at least to me, that this is not a fun game mode. So I knew the portal brawl would be terrible, and it really is. Very miserable games, won't be touching that again.
There's not really anything you can learn by playing to get better, so that's one of the big problems here to me.
Ironically the thing I enjoyed the most about the game was the unstable portal mage challenge, but I play it trying to beat every card in grimstone's deck and that really takes skill and planning, as well as luck. So every game is different on your side and the same on his side, so you know what you have to be playing around.
When both players have just portals, it's completely random.
One game the other guy got 2 prophet velen back to back. Another game, the guy was on his last portal, I was at 9. He portals, gets' ragnaros, pings my face and wins the game on a coin flip off a MEGA coin flip. A game I won? I just got turn 3 highmane. What's the answer to that? It's just all this kind of stupidity where almost no skill comes into play. I played as warlock too, get 2 sacrificial pacts in opening hand... I mean. Erg. Just not fun.
I rate this Brawl on-par with the banana brawl(the worst brawl). Not that RNG is bad but I just wished that they allowed to add at least ten spell cards from our collection or something that you know can help in X situation. It's like they just copy pasted the entire BRM unstable portal class challenge and allowed multiplayer in it.
AS bad as webspinner brawl. Webspinners - roll for rhino, scavenging hyena - win game (sometimes you get OP class spell too). Unstable portals - roll early legend win game (sometimes you get OP class spell too).
Only good brawls are decks we can build. Full on RNG decks are plain frustrating.
Why is it the best in your opinion? Was advantage usually on your side?

7 weeks in and Blizzard has used almost none of this modes potential. 7 horrible rulesets.

I kind of like Warrior this week.
Honestly, Warrior is pretty damn good - mulligan for your class cards as they're mostly either draw, cycle, or removal.
I'm on a 10+ win streak atm.

Dont play priest, the brawl deck contains mindgames :/

JUST ALLOW ME TO SAY FUCK ENEMY TURN 3 COINED TROGGZOR!
This week's brawl is incredibly frustrating. Just had an opponent (mage) portal a Harvest Golem into a Screwjank Clunker into Upgraded Repair Bot... this is the opposite of fun.
On the other hand, I just had Majordomo out, opponent had a lethal board, popped Twisting Nether, turned into Rag, he had 7 hp and no minions...
