This event is fucking garbage. The dual-class arena fucks with Discovery cards and the initial draft. You know what's really fun? Having a Mage play Devolve then Meteor. That is super fun.
Just finished the arena (9-3) with a Shaman and the Hunter hero power. I found this a lot better than the usual arena. But I was really happy with the rewards, considering I was saving dust to craft Prince Keleseth.
5 Wins, 110 gold, pack with 1 golden rare and 1 rare. Relatively happy this was a free run as i managed to get my daily done. So I'm technically up 90 dust and 170 gold for a mage/druid hero power run that was hideously top heavy.
It was an awesome playthrouygh and there were times I was laughing my head off at how ridiculous some combos were. I mananged to pick up a Pyroblast, 2 Firelands Portals, a Starfall, Starfire and a Fireball to round it off nicely. And somehow I only stumbled to 5 wins with Prince Kelseth and a Bog Creeper.
So yeah, funny as fuck at times and unbelievably frustrating at others. Pretty standard arena but with more ridiculousness and based on that I'd consider playing it as an arena mode if they ever made it one.
Priest warlock, first run 7-3 , good recovery from 3-2. High variance deck to say the least, only lost to early game being a bit weak on the minion side, but card generation was actually disgusting and practically won me every game, even thought stealing deathknight cards, kabal chemist though amazing. Rewards 150g a pack and some dust so that's nice.
Pics 1 and 2 are my first deck the last pics are what i just drafted, started out ok, drafted 2 valeera's because yolo, probably should of taken the pyros haha.
pretty sure i used up all my luck in the first run i bet i wont even draw my two valeera's
I'm having a lot of fun with this event, but it seems like every run I've won the first 4-5 games, then I just hit a brick wall and get HAMMERED by completely ridiculous decks that you wouldn't normally see until like 9-10 wins.
Three runs so far, two 7-3s and a 10-3, so pretty good. The 10-3 was a hunter-druid, deck definitely felt like it could have gone 12 in the hands of a better pilot, the beast synergy was straight up busted.
Managed to get 2 runs so far (both free tickets). First was Druid-Hunter, second was Mage-Priest. Went 4-3 on both, so not bad. Hopefully I'll have time for a few more runs before this event ends, because it's been fun so far.

Old school WoW Mage motto: if you don't end the run with the most damage dealt AND the most deaths, you're not trying hard enough.
Currently 11-0 with a hunter/druid deck with an obscene early curve (think regular midrange hunter with alleycat, crackling razormaw, animal companion x2, houndmaster, the 1 drop bat) mixed with some high value cards and topped off with sea giant, starfall x2, ultimate infestation, deathstalker rexxar and ysera. So much early tempo mixed with so much late game value. I've won games as early as T6 and outlasted late game decks as well.
I have over 8k arena wins so I play a lot of arena. But this is the most fun I've had with it in a long time with over 20 runs since the event started - best event ever!

Something is up - card quality is thru the roof....
Realized I am the greediest drafter of all time and it is ruining my results lol
Still a pretty fun event tho but totally broken.

I did Rogue/ Hunter hero power, basically full aggro tempo...6-3. meh..def drafted wrong in a few slots. Enjoy the actual gameplay pretty sweet.
p.s the Ethereal Peddler (I think thats the 5/6 reduce other class cards by 2) is nuts in this one.

Nonetheless, I am having a blast.

I drafted a Warrior/Mage. 5-0 so far. I'll see how far I can get.

2-3 despite having a Rogue-Mage with a shit ton of tier 1 cards. Arena is bullshit.
Custom cards :
CLASSES : Alchemist (CCC#5 | Phase V) | Chef (CCC#4)
EXPANSIONS : Year of the Scorpion (Year Comp)
I did mage then priest.
Went 5-3.
I think anything involving mage is bound to turn out alright.

It was slightly less boring than Normal Arena.

Got a 6-3 and a 7-3 run, I love it, it's one of the funniest events Blizzard ever made.
