This is maybe my first warlock 12 win deck and it was insane. The tierscore was 73.1 and I had everything I need from board clears to big removals to heals.
I only lost to a control mage and even that was a close game. MVPs were mistress of mixtures and the enforcers. Worst card was darkshire libarian.
I usually never play Arena, I started the run some time before the MSoG-release, paused at 7-0 and finished it today (that's why there aren't any MSoG-cards in it)
This is my 3rd 12 win with Warlock in my last 4 Arenas with this class (the other one went 9-3). It's completely sick. This is a really solid midrange deck with plenty of removal (early removal, large removal, AoE, you name it), and a very nice curve, with good early game, solid midgame and enough threats for the late game.
Felfire Potion won me some games by itself, and Abyssal Enforcer was amazing as usual, as well as Blastcrystal Potion to remove that big taunt for going lethal. But one card that surprised me and worked really well, much more than I had expected, was Bloodfury Potion. With so many demons (7), I didn't have trouble finding targets, and it always was a great tempo play, as no one expect buffs from a Warlock. Specially when playing on curve, buffing small demons like Flame Imp, Voidwalker, Mistress of Pain or Imp Gang Boss.
I was not faring too well with arena for most of the Wrath of the Old Gods expansion. Recently, however, I have 2 more 12 win arenas to share. The most recent was hunter.
With this paladin arena, it often seemed that my opponent could draw the right cards at just the right time and it wouldn't matter. I could get a ridiculous start with Small-Time Buccaneer and Argent Lance. Most games were one-sided. And Grimestreet Informant seems to always have at least one ridiculously good choice. One game, I got Knuckles and followed up next turn with Seal of Champions. I believe my last game ended with a Gorehowl to the face.
First time made 12 wins with my favorite class - rogue. Loss only against priest at 11 wins(who can imagine that). Seems like this deck isnt that good and i didn't expect to make 12 wins. Got 455 gold but i was expecting to get golden legendary but still its huge reward
This expansion feels easier than previous ones. I normally average like 6.5 wins, though I'm now at 7 in this expansion, with multiple 12 wins (6 in 31 runs so far).
First arena run in nearly a week and drafted a pretty average hunter deck. But got to 12 wins just off sheer aggression and facing lots of Warlocks. The Ram Wranglers got me a lot of good stuff like King Krush, Knuckles, and Giant Sand Worm too.
The 5 Abyssal Enforcers and 1 Felfire Potion allowed me to win most games before turn 10 and both Deathlord and Master Jouster with the addition of Siphon Soul allowed me to even get that far. Knife Juggler + Imp Gang Boss rng and pulling Fearsome Doomguard from voidcaller also won me games.
Unfortunately I forgot to take a screenshot of the rewards so can't add that :/ But I got around 300 gold, a golden common and a pack.
My second 12 wins in Gadgetzan is surprisingly with Hunter (got 4 11 wins with others). This deck is really good at curving out with tons of 2 drops. MVP is Unleash the Hounds and Leeroy Jenkins who gave me 2-3 times lethal. Met 4 rogues and 4 warlocks including a rematch at 11-1. Last 4 opponents are all warlock wtf. Perhaps Kripp's right about hunters in this meta. Just SMOrc the rogues and warlocks then you will get good results.
OMG second 12 wins in 2 days, this time with Rogue again. The deck scores 65.3 in HA, once again shows rogue can have good results with an average deck. This is an fairly aggro deck, MVP goes to Sap. Again SMOrcing high-wins warlocks FeelsGoodMan. Got lucky with the pack too.
Well after 3 runs of getting absolutely rekt by RNG (and 2 11-win warrior run earlier this month), this one finally takes the cake.
12-0 Warrior, not a single bad card, 5 weapons, reach for days, card draw, late game finishers. Deathlord pulled a Bog Creeper once but it was doable with Obsidian on board. Faceless made another Obsidian in 2-3 games which is absolutely insane.
Frothing Berserker basically carried games by itself, I beat a druid on turn 6 after the guy took over 20 damage with one frothing, rofl. Informant had plenty of hightlight as well, getting King Crush, Call of the Wild, Malkorok, Coghammer in the games it was seen.
The best RNG I can ask for is not matching up with any insane mages nor paladins. Faced 5 warlocks above 5 wins but they pretty much die to tempo. The 11-0 guy made a mistake and didn't kill my frothing which dodged a bullet for sure there.
Nexus didn't really see any play, except in one priest game where I got elemental destruction from it, guy was probably tilted.
In a warlock meta, I'm pretty happy with Warriors, ironically I probably enjoy warriors better as aggro more than hunters. Warriors just has some insane common class cards (way more than Hunters) and drawing weapons early is most of the time game winning.
My most solid 12 Wins Arena run.
Don`t know where i saved the others, but all others required a lot luck.
just another 12 win priest:

this was my 2nd 12 win priest in MsG, so far my average is 7.17 in 6 runs. priest is just awesome. :)

Before this, I had my most insane arena deck ever. A 12-win paladin run.

12-2 Warlock run with pretty frustrating rewards: 245 Gold and 2 golden rare.
12-2 Mage run. The Video includes the games from 10-1 on.
First time made 12 wins with my favorite class - rogue. Loss only against priest at 11 wins(who can imagine that). Seems like this deck isnt that good and i didn't expect to make 12 wins. Got 455 gold but i was expecting to get golden legendary but still its huge reward
rest of the deck:
spellbreaker
darkspeaker
kvaldir raider
mukla's champ
spiteful smith
big-time racketeer
jade chieftain
force-tank max
245 gold, 2 golden rares and a pack. doesn't sound too appealing imho :/

This is my first ever 12-0 arena run and I wanted to share it because of how insane the deck is. (81.3 average tier score!)

I was fortunate that most of my opponents were Mage and Warlock, which made this 12 win run relatively smooth. The double deadly shots were MVP.
I was also very happy that the final boss was a fellow hunter. Proving that drafts are good in this meta.

Then fired myself.
Then did again.
