Still enjoying when a janky deck built for a specific daily quest can take out a current “meta” deck. Was running a Shaman all “Overload” deck, and had the pleasure of defeating a Death Rattle Rogue. 95% of the time I run these decks to a concede from me, but every now and then they surprise me, lol.

Grammar is the difference between knowing your crap, and knowing you’re crap.
So I was playing a Shudderbomb Shaman deck in casuals to try to get a win to complete a quest (and have some fun in the process) when I ended up facing a netdeck Midrange Hunter. Things weren't going so well for basically the whole game after they started beating me down with multiple Dire Frenzied beasts by around turn 7 without even playing Master's Call. Fortunately Shaman can be decently resilient with its healing and getting neutralize multiple boards with Zentimo. Anyway, Grumble is in the bottom 5 cards of my deck or so and I need to start answering his threats from Rexxar. At this point he's threatening me and I'm out of healing and about to hit fatigue. Despite this I was finally able to play Shudderwock and clear their board. They conceded the next turn when I started bouncing it with Grumble.
playing elemental shaman and a bit of control shaman.
elemental shaman is the nuts though. The value is fucking insane, it only really loses to decks that have huge mana cheat or sometimes aggro if you have a bad hand. I love grinding out odd warriors easily. If they don't get killed after running out of clears you still win in fatigue.
shaman has so many fucking fun cards. I seriously hope a late game shaman deck will be tier 1/2 post rotation because i'd love to "main" shaman.
I felt sorry for this Thief Rogue I faced, whose Spectral Cutlass and Tess Greymane were utterly useless throughout the match because I was playing...Hooktusk Rogue. Nothing like seeing Tess played as a last-ditch attempt, then conceding after absolutely nothing happens.
And I couldn't help but laugh at this Odd Mage who threw in the towel against my Healadin deck. With Clockwork Automaton and Daring Fire-Eater on board, she tried shooting herself in the face with her hero power, but couldn't even do that as she missed that self-lethal by 1 health. I love beating Mages.
Thought I'd finish my time before Rotation playing Wild. First game this evening (I'm on holiday...) and its a full Standard Odd Paladin against my C'thun Mage.
My opponent Rage Quit after I'd cleared his board for the 5th time.
Felt so damn Good after all those whuppin's I suffered during the last few months on the Standard Ladder.
I started saving my gold as soon as expansion was announced. I've got about 1000 gold to go, so it looks like I'm going to be able to buy the adventure on day one with no real-world money invested. :)
Just got the most savage throw of Arena laid upon my hands. Went toe to toe with a Warrior, I got him to 8 life but he got the advantage, got me to 7. I thought I had it with his Deranged Doctor vs my Green Jelly and his two spawns. But than he gets Sul'thraze kills my two Green Ooze and... hist the Doctor into my Kidnapper. He died the next turn as I had the Jelly and the already equipped Val'anyr from Stolen Steel
While waiting for the rotation, I'm messing around with Miracle Rouge in Casual. The first chapter of this comment I should have posted in the Salt thread, but the rematch happened and now I'm posting it all here.
In the first game vs. Dragon Odd Warrior I dropped both of my Fal'dorei Striders on turns 4 and 5. The game ended on turn 18 and not a single spider emerged meanwhile. The last card was Myra's Unstable Element and those 6 idiots... I even used Gadgetzan Auctioneer, but nothing; I was drawing everything in a reverse order. :D All this made me very angry, like Odd Warrior matchup isn't already a dull thing to endure.
Immediately after, the rematch... It started terrible: couldn't play Firefly because of his turn 1 Eternium Rover (again). An obvious Dyn-o-matic then cleared my Hench-Clan Thug. He wasted one Reckless Flurry to remove 7-7 Questing Adventurer, Fal'dorei Strider, together with some other smaller guys. Then I decided to bluff and go all in; played Myra's Unstable Element, Edwin VanCleef and stuff... doing all this out of despair. What's the chance he (full health, c. 20 armor) doesn't have 1 of 2 Brawls or another Flurry or whatever, on turn 8? Not only that, the board from the screenshot practically lasted for the whole turn 9 and then the guy conceded probably unable to clear the board even on turn 10!!! I was like, wtf?!
In one game you are denied beyond belief, in another - Odd Warrior cannot clear a shit.
I crafted Baku and Genn a couple of days ago and I started experimenting a lot of ideas I had in my mind.
Against my previsions, I'm find a helluvalot of success with an Odd Midrange Druid: it wrecks nearly everything and it's a lot of fun. I wonder why no one plays it.
I think I'll stick to it until the new expansion's launch.

My girlfriend also has quite a bit of success with it.
The reason nobody plays it though is because it's relatively cheap and no streamers play it.
I loooove the feeling of chopping down minions with Sul'thraze in a single turn. It felt especially good after this Zoo Warlock dropped two Happy Ghouls, a Lightwarden, and a Lifedrinker on turn 5 then hit me with a "Well Played," after which I topdecked my Sul'thraze and slaughtered his entire board. Sure, I took 13 damage in a single turn, but pissing all over my aggro opponent's effort to fill his board made it worthwhile.
Just reached 6000 gold. Played my budget Hunter deck over and over again for the past month. Worked so hard to collect it, I'm not sure if I can bring myself to use the damn gold to open packs =P
Had a pretty long game against a control mage last night with an odd warrior deck is tried out because auto complete but it together.
Both ran out of cards but omega assembly had given me Mecha'thun as one of the 3 mechs it discovered. Hung on to him and played him as my last card from hand. The mage had a couple water elementals up and a few cards in hand. They were headed for a win but with rush, I was able to kill one and as the other player had no silence, there was nothing left they could do except attack, end their turn and I could kill his minions with thun, eventually killing himself in a trade and giving me the victory.
Not exactly a mind blowing end game but given the length of the game and that he wasn't part of my plan or deck, it all just fell very nicely and snatched a win which based on the overall match, really could have gone either way.

RIP shudderwock combo shaman.
Beating 3 Beast Hunters in a row with a thrown-together Shaman deck to complete a quest. Nothing better.
Here posting an average Hooktusk game. Enjoying playing her like nothing else.

How often you see the same golden (even if its a common) in the same pack?

Mind you, I don't think my Opponent had many Wild Cards. He/She kept mousing over cards like Beckoner of Evil, C'Thun's Chosen and Crazed Worshipper like they'd never seen them before.
And I didn't even get to play my 16/16 Taunt C'Thun or Yogg-Saron, Hope's End either. Sad face...
4/3/19 RIP Keith Flint. 😔

For April Fools, I played Mecha'thun Druid without the Mecha'thun.
I ended it with Two Snowflipper Penguins and a Naturalize on my own Giggling Inventor, and conceded.
I hope it got a laugh out of some people.
Wait what am I supposed to write here again
My girlfriend also has quite a bit of success with it.

That feeling when Wondrous Wand gives you Zul'jin, a second Marin the Fox and Zilliax then the second one cast by Zul'Jin gives Deathstalker Rexxar.
