Hello folks! Tomorrow I'll be attempting to grind from rank 50 to legend in 16 hours.
Rules: 1) Standard - EU format only 2) F2P all the way. Not a single penny can be spend. 3) Starting from a account that hasn't been touched yet. Tutorial and introduction included.
When: Tomorrow (saterday 25th of may) at 9:15 am CEST time.
Why: For fun. I had a bet with a guy. Also to shush some of the "hearthstone is p2p and RNG only, bla bla bla", but that's just a minor thing.
My expectations: Somebody once did the same challenge and it took him 16.45 hours during a faster meta. So I expect to end up some were between rank 4-2. However now that warriors and rogues have been nerfed my chances of reaching my goals has been slightly increased. The reason why I think I have a chance is because the other people who attempted the challenge played (in my opinion) pretty slow. There were many things they could have saved time on.
Deck: Token druid. My deck will be visible tomorrow.
Can I follow along? Yes, I setup a twitch account yesterday in order to stream it. No, I don't do this for publicity. Don't subscribe, don't donate, I don't care and won't read the messages, however there are moderators with me during the stream who'll check what's going on and share stuff worth mentioning.
Got questions? For the next 5 hours after creating this post I'll be in my office and will answer literally all questions (ain't much work here today, so yeah...).

This seems like a really really hard challenge, as i usually get legend from rank 5 in about 7-8h, and you going from 50 up there will be a damn good challenge. But i wish you luck and hope you do it, ill try to watch a bit of the grind if i get the time.
Don't you mean Rank 50 - Legend in the time it takes to do 2 arm workouts? ;-)
Jokes aside, I wish you the best. I think it's doable, but the rank 5 to legend climb can easily be your ruin. My personal best in that stretch is 4 hours, but I got quite lucky.
Good luck fella. Sounds like a tough ask. Shame you haven't set up a Just Giving Page or something for Charity. If you are going to stream for the full 16 hours or so it might have made sense to have a little Donation Link set up somewhere.
In any case I really do wish you luck. Its something that, if I had the time, I'd like to try myself.

May I ask how and if you are planing to improve your deck along the way? Do you just plainly grind the ranks, or do you intend to maybe take some time for a tavern brawl/&the first chapter of the dalaran heist? Or do the ranking up rewards of the 50-25 ranks have to be enough?

I don't improve my deck along the way. This is one of the time-consuming things I talked about in my post. Other people who did the challenge did this and it takes away several minutes. I've done tons of testing and I'm confident with the deck I made. I won't do brawls, and any solo content. From the packs I get during the grind I'll get about 1800-2200 dust. Which is enough to create the deck.

Have you tried this type of challenge before? And why do you think you will be able to do a challenge like this?
Not specifically this challenge. However I've helped many friends rank up and always kept a close eye on how the meta changes. I've hit legend rank over 30 times and never really have issues with hitting rank plateaus. Because losing games no longer influences my mood or effects my focus I feel like have a tough grind like this will go pretty smoothly.

Go go go! You can do it! Please do it! There are a lot of people who are saying "off course a pro player can reach Legend as f2p, but for a normal player this isn`t possible" and this is just a bullsh** argument. Please prove them wrong! :)
Blizzard should make a special stream lessons or youtube videos in which they explain the the only way hs should be played is with supa dupa 1000 IQ control/combo homebrewed decks and 30 minutes long match is a minimum time period that proves you're not braindead blah blah something etc.

From rank 5 to legend will likely be as time consuming as going from rank 50 to rank 10 will be.

i have tried the same not long time ago, ended entering the rank5 rank 1 cycle and no legend so good luck to you!
Whats your original rank?
I assume you mean my rank on my own account? Legend rank, reached with the deck I plan to do this challenge with.

I've spent 24 days this month to grind from rank7 3 stars to rank6 5 stars, so good luck.
