Didnt have a clue if this deck was good or bad, but i gambled. Turns out it worked quit well. If the card were right I went aggresive with whirlng zap-o-matic+++, if not, i stalled, until I had enough minions and totems for bloodlust. MVP: Bloodlust! Got 12-2. Both losses I misplayed.
My eighth 12-win Arena, but my first ever 12-0! (feeling proud) :D My lack of early game proved to be no problem, since my opponents always let one of my 1/1's live for some reason, which led to many comebacks using the Dark Iron Dwarves. :) I didn't expect this run to go so well!
Pretty ridiculous deck, curved out with 4-drops and x5 Flamestrike. Got two of them early on so I just kept picking them for the heck of it.
Had several other of the good Mage spells and being smart with Duplicates helped make up for the lack of card draw.
Deathlord was pretty phenomenal, since the only way this deck really lost was getting burned down early on, also having x5 Flamestrike, x2 Frostbolt, x2 Polymorph and a Fireball significantly reduced the risk involved with the card.
The two losses were both to Paladins who played +3 Shielded Minibots within the first 3 turns.
good ol priest wreckin mages since 85. i ran into 11 mages which was amazing, i know mages are popular but that's a lot of them, curiously the games i lost were against warlock which i consider to not be one of the best classes unless they have voidcallers and demon synergy, which both my oponents had, combined with a zoolike start.
Got back2back 12 on EU with a good Paladin deck. Only the 4 slot was a little light with 4 cards but 2 of them were truesilvers. Early game did most of the work. Only lost twice in a row to the same mage on 8-0 than easy games to the 12-2.
Rewards were ridiculous with only 255 gold and 2 shitty golden cards.
A Priest 12 win arena with Mind Control Tech, Mind Control and Thoughtsteal. Lots of stealing and RNG based luck determined this win. It was a lot of fun! My opponents played legendaries (Dr Boom, Trade Prince). I guess after 7 wins, it's something to expect?
I didn't think I'd be posting again on this thread anytime soon after my initial 12 win run last month. Since then I've only managed a handful of 7+ runs while suffering more 2-5 win arenas than I have had in many months. On the run prior to this one I had a 7-0 paladin that I thought might be able to go the distance but ended up losing 3 straight matches. When I drafted this arena today I thought it was average to above average. Despite the 3 Darkbombs I felt it was light on early game plus the two 1 drops weren't all that great. I felt the rest of the deck was fairly solid except for the double stormpike commando (which turned out to be worth their weight in gold this run). The three and 4 drops usually helped swing the game back in my favor if I didn't have any early minions or dark bombs. The famed Raging Worgen into Dread Infernal Power Overwhelming combo won me two matches on it's own. Azure Drake in combination with other spells really helped carry the midgame. Siphon Soul was disappointing since it never got any big juicy minions. Alexstraza pulled out a couple of game where I was getting beaten down, but wasn't great when used on the opponent.
The two losses came from an insane priest deck that got control early and never lost it, and a mage game that nearly went to fatigue. I could have come back from 1 health but Alexstraza was my last card. I also misplayed by not dropping a doomguard and killing the opponent's Hogger. Instead I slow played and dropped void caller. I got wrecked by a top decked flamestrike.
On the reward front things were disappointing. 335 gold a golden spellbreaker, and 40 dust from the pack.
Just got my second 12 win ever. Card advantage and the durability of my minions won out the day. Zombie Chow ended up in 8 of my opening hands and Lightwarden became a 17/8 in one of the games.
so we got an insane deck here today, 12 -0 shaman, in the us server again. triple fireguard destroyer and triple fire elemental. there aren't many things that can stop that.
Grats. Getting the first one was the hardest for me, I'd get very nervous starting around 9. But after I got the first one, I've gotten quite a few more. Probably don't feel the pressure to make it quite as bad.
Welcome to the club! I had 11 for the longest time last year and it always annoyed me when I'd see it as my "best Arena key" on the Quest screen. FeelsGoodMan.

Second 12 wins in a row! With shaman this time on asia aswell. I lost versus faceadin sadly, and a mage that got his Sea Giant from the minions I gave him with my Hungry Dragons. He totally rekt me. Anyway I'm happy because it's the first time I reach 12 wins with this class.

12 win mage deck, Wasn't a really insane mage deck but it mostly curved out nicely, only lost to 2 aggro decks.
Rewards were terrible.

After a break from Arena due to vacation I'm back with this 12-2 Mage deck on NA.

I recorded the games and uploaded to YouTube as a Playlist - including the draft in the first video and the rewards in the last video:

roguester , this time on the us server. them azure drakes where pretty damn nice.
Just got my second 12 win ever. Card advantage and the durability of my minions won out the day. Zombie Chow ended up in 8 of my opening hands and Lightwarden became a 17/8 in one of the games.
"We've done the impossible and that makes us mighty."
so we got an insane deck here today, 12 -0 shaman, in the us server again. triple fireguard destroyer and triple fire elemental. there aren't many things that can stop that.
12-0 Paladin on Asia, the insane 4 slot made up for the terrible early game, won most matches pretty easily by value trading.
Rewards were terrible, absolutely 12 win unworthy.
Had a super awesome mage run 12-1
Side note, only got to play baron once and he got killed by Avenging Wrath the next turn haha.
Gorespine#1591 - Feel free to challenge me with your gimmick!
nice!
my best was 5 ^^
Grats. Getting the first one was the hardest for me, I'd get very nervous starting around 9. But after I got the first one, I've gotten quite a few more. Probably don't feel the pressure to make it quite as bad.
Hope you get more 12s in the future.
BTW, what were your other legendary choices?
Asia is so much easier. I don't know why.
Thanks everyone! :) onenutmcgee, one was Lorewalker Cho and the 3rd I don't remember but it wasn't good. :P
Gorespine#1591 - Feel free to challenge me with your gimmick!

I'm surprised a Shaman deck got 12 wins without any Fire Elementals.
