9th June update: Duwin's WILD Big Dragon Priest - Much more fun than normal Big Priest! (1080p)

Duwin (https://twitter.com/DuwinHS) has come up with a cool Big Priest deck - but with dragons! Yes, I am surprised - Duwin plays other decks apart from Hunter? :-) It doesn't feel as broken as broken as a normal Big Priest deck. Duwin was responsible for getting me back into playing the Hunter class. Perhaps with this deck, he will convince me to start playing Priest again?

14th June update: Bmking69's WILD Control Warlock with Rin: Faced an Even Druid. It was awesome. (1080p)

Rin? Plot Twist? Shadowflame? Yes indeed, time for something a little different. Bmking69 (one of my opponents from a previous video) has reached legend 2 months in a row with this deck, with a 58% win-rate. That's roughly the same win-rate that I had. In the Druid game, I am sure I missed lethal, but was enjoying myself so much, it didn't matter :-) Oh, and my opponent was an EVEN Druid. Epic! If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments section below - Bmking69 will be happy to respond!

15h June update: Duwin/EK's WILD Control Deathrattle Hunter: Play Dead / Nine Lives Shenanigans (1080p)

When the Emperor is allowed to live and gives you a TWO cost Deathstalker Rexxar... Amazing. Thanks to Duwin (https://twitter.com/DuwinHS) and Ek_designer (https://twitter.com/EK_Hearthstone) for this deck. Sylvanas is tremendous. Also - don't forget Explosive Sheep - works wonders against aggro (although in this video, I never really got an opportunity to use the sheep). Snipe is also excellent against Flamewakers and Scavenging Hyenas :-) The game against the Mage was a big grind - but it worked out thanks to Sylvanas. The game against the Big Priest was really unfortunate - we stole lots of minions - but he simply rezzed minions back to the board.

17th June update: Bannanawaffles WILD 'Almost Golden' Murloc Shaman to Rank 2: Loatheb beats Mages! (1080p)

In the May season, I played Gankplang's Murloc Shaman (all golden) to rank 1. This deck from Bannanawaffles is slightly different, running Loatheb and Call in the Finishers. I was able to hit rank 2 easily with this deck (72% win rate, 13 wins and 5 losses). The majority of cards are golden - but I still need to craft golden Loatheb!

22nd June update: Captain Hooktusk STANDARD Rogue: Malygos, Nozdormu & missing lethal for fun! (1080p)

Thanks to Jesse Alexander (https://twitter.com/j_alexander_hs?lang=en) for this deck. Rogue is my least played class, but any deck that contains Captain Hooktusk NEEDS to be played. The final game against a Pogohopper Rogue was cool.

Highlights:
0:15 Double Malygos.
1:39 Double Nozdormu.
15:19 Double Mecha'thun.

23rd June update: Cardinal's STANDARD Big Shaman to Rank 3: Cairne, Ysera and Al'Akir in 2019! (1080p)

Winning games with Ysera in 2019? Feels good! We continue our journey on Standard mode - with Ysera, Cairne and Al'Akir - cards that seem reminiscent of Hearthstone in 2014. However, they work very well in this deck, when cheated out with Eureka or Muckmorpher. As I continued to play the deck, my confidence started to grow and it was enough to take me to rank 3.

30th June update: Beardyman's Hulk Gone Wild Rush Warrior to Rank 2: Batterhead wins games! (1080p)

Batterhead. Clears boards. Wins games! Thanks to Beardyman (https://twitter.com/BeardymanHS) for this glorious deck, moving from rank 3 to rank 2. Grommash lethals are cool. Keleseth adds some extra power to the mid to late game. One copy of Brawl is nice - but I wonder if a second copy is worthwhile? If you have any questions, please post them below, I am sure Beardyman will answer. I have a really bad cold - and I tried to edit out all of the sneezing.

8th July update: Duwin's WILD Nine Lives Spell Hunter: "Tonight, a tale of terrible tragedy..." (1080p)

Barnes? Y'Shaarj? No this isn't Big Priest. This is Duwin's Nine Lives Hunter deck, with Barnes, Y'Shaarj and Sylvanas - because we have no time  for games! - as you can see in the final game against the Mage! 
Thanks to Nate Wolfe (https://twitter.com/NateWolfeHS) for the deck summary and guides (https://twitter.com/NateWolfeHS/status/1148002591776763904).

13th July update: DogSpotter's C'Thun Mage: "My dreaming ends...Your nightmare...begins..." (in 2019) (1080p)

Today, I am playing C'Thun Mage - it is not always the most competitive deck when facing Big Priest (or other tier 1 decks), but it is certainly fun! You can sometimes pull of big turns with Mana Wyrm. There is plenty of burn that can be thrown at your opponent's face. If C'Thun doesn't finish them off, then Pyroblast will!!

14th July update: Slizzle466's WILD Jade Druid: Shouting "BEHOLD!" with Vargoth & good things happen!

Jade Druid feels like a solid choice for me in the current meta that I am facing. Lots of Cyclone Mages. The armor gain can allow you to survive the big damage turns from Flamewakers, giants, etc. After a few weeks of experimenting with off-meta decks, it's time to get serious :-)

The end of this video features a preview of what is to come next weekend - Beardyman's C'THUN Cyclone Mage.

20th July update: Beardyman's WILD Mana Cyclone C'Thun Mage: "You have already lost..." in 2019 (1080p)

Beardyman has done it again. C'Thun Cyclone Mage! In this video you will see versions 1 and 2 of the deck being played by me. I don't know what I am doing, but I still win games! - and yes I know it is only a small sample size of games. I was lucky to have Beardyman coaching me too. It was unfortunate that in all 7 games I played, I never got a chance to actually play C'Thun. Oh well, when I try version 3, perhaps I will get lucky.
Want to see more crazy deck ideas, using what many people consider to be 'bad' cards in the meta, yet still win games? Then follow Beardyman on Twitter: https://twitter.com/beardymanhs

27th July update: Duwin's WILD Reno Hunter: What is better than one copy of Reno? Two of course! (1080p)

When you get tired of the ladder and want something a little different, try a Duwin deck. You won't regret it. More fun with the Hunter class! - this time with Reno. The element of surprise helps a lot. People expect Spell Hunter or Mech Hunter... and then you play Reno twice and win.

28th July update: JmanroXD's Reno C'Thun Shudderwock Shaman: The Darkness, Rafaam & Undatakah!? (1080p)

This deck is crazy. Reno Jackson? Da Undatakah? Shudderwock? The Darkness? Arch-Thief Rafaam? C'Thun? Deranged Doctor? Tunnel Blaster? The Skeleton Knight?!? The Mistcaller?!! I bullied Beardyman with this deck. Although to be fair, he was trying to bully me with a Ragnaros OTK combo. You will see the games from both of our perspectives.

3rd August update: Fun times with Tess Cutlass Rogue / Get to know Darkseeker Part 2 (1080p)

Learning more about Darkseeker Part 1 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEqYOYNkAqA) seemed to be well received. So here is part 2! I talk about food, politics, Brexit, London Underground, and music! 
Sorry if the background music isn't loud enough. I finished editing this on my laptop from my hotel room! - so it was all a little rushed.

7th August update: Duwin's WILD Reno Hunter: My first game from the Saviors of Uldum expansion! (1080p)

Duwin continues to bring out some awesome Hunter decks - in this case, an updated Reno Hunter deck for the Saviors of Uldum expansion. This was the first game I played under the new expansion, from my hotel room at Weymouth beach!

Deck code: AAEBAR8etQPJBPIFrgaXCMUI/gz3DfoO0RTDFoUX+LECxLQC080C39IC49IChtMC4eMCh/sCp4IDm4UDpIgD5pYD+ZYDu6ED/KMDn6UDoqUDpqUDAAA=

8th August update: Beardyman's WILD 'Prismatic Friends Murloc Paladin' w/Tip the Scales! (Saviors of Uldum)

This deck was from day 1 of the expansion, created by Beardyman, using Prismatic Lens to cheapen the cost of Tip the Scales and Anyfin Can Happen . Please note - there was supposed to be an additional copy of Southsea Deckhand in the deck (after taking out one copy of Jeeves).

Deck code: AAEBAZ8FCKICrwTUBeAF+g7SFpG8AqCAAwvbA/4DqAXjBacI6g+OENmuAuPLAvz8ApupAwA=

*UPDATE* Since producing this video, there have been several updates to the deck - the latest version includes Wickerflame and Gentle Megasaur, whilst removing Anyfin can Happen. Ultimately, you want Prismatic Lens to hit on Tipping the Scales - that is where the real value is. This latest version of the deck is far more powerful than the deck showcased in this video!!

9th August update: Mentalistic's WILD Highkeeper Ra Warlock: Your world is beyond redemption! (1080p)

Highkeeper Ra. Enough said. Watch the video for the glorious combo and animation. So what if Ra doesn't kill your opponent? Double Gul'dan and double N'Zoth from Expired Merchant is a good enough finisher :-)

11th August update: Mentalistic/Yata's WILD Reno Quest Shudderwock Shaman: You face LORD Jaraxxus! (1080p)

What a ridiculously fun deck to play! Thanks to Yata (https://twitter.com/YataGG) and Mentalistic (https://twitter.com/HS_Mentalistic) for this deck - The Shaman quest, Reno, Shudderwock and a host of other cool cards.

Some highlights:

9:30 Put your faith in the light... of course.

12:42 Why would you play Book of Specters and increase fatigue? Was there any logical reason for this, or was it just BM?

13:31 United for Dalaran!

15:22 It's amazing how quickly things can turn around in your favour - going from an empty board and empty hand... to a full board and full hand!

16:13 Ending the game with Lord Jaraxxus. Tremendous!

17:02 Pirate Priest??! What is this?

13th August update: Hureal's WILD Jade Shudderwock Shaman: Kel'Thuzad, big green men & more fun! (1080p)

This deck can be incredibly dominating on the ladder. If you can complete the quest quickly, the value from generating Jade Golems quickly is great. That's when you can start to outpace your opponents.
You can see more discussion about this deck on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/wildhearthstone/comments/cnvbog/jade_shaman_is_insanely_strong_with_the_quest/

In this video, we go up against:
Murloc Shaman 1:16
Big Priest 8:31
Cyclone Mage 22:50
Jade Druid 29:46
Egg / Lackey Warlock 38:27

Highlights:

6:10 Obey the call of Kel'Thuzad!

17:00 When you can generate minions bigger than those played by the Big Priest, you are probably winning the game :)

29:00 Play your giants. I don't care. I have Jade Golems!

33:50 Ruining the hopes and dreams of Jade Druid.

37:40 Everyfin is Awesome! Pretending to be a Murloc Shaman!

41:00 Shudderwock vs Mal'Ganis! Not getting all of the battlecry value from Shudderwock is fine. Getting some battlecry value is enough to win the game!

Deck code: AAEBAaoIDN4F+g71D5S9At/EAtPFAqDOAsPqAu/3AtqdA+GlA+GoAwnmuwLPvALRvAKI6AKe8AK0kQPGmQPPpQOQpwMA

I managed to go the entire game against the Big Priest without using Plague of Murlocs. That surely feels like a misplay on my part. I possibly should have cast it when the first Obsidian Statue came down. However, I wanted to hold off to deal with a bigger board. But then again, my pace of generating large Jade Golems was too much for him. So perhaps Plague of Murlocs wasn't needed.

17th August update: Barrel69_2487's WILD Quest Jade Mill Druid: Milling Big Priests is so much fun (1080p)

Barrel69_2487's Jade Druid with mill effects is so much fun to play. Compared to previous iterations of Jade Druid, this feels so much more powerful due to the Druid quest! Milling Big Priest has become my favourite thing to do!

Deck code: AAEBAZICBl+UvQKHzgKY0gKe+QL4oQMMQFbpAcQG+AexEbS7AqDNAp7SAr/yAtulA9mpAwA=

Highlights:
7:58 Milling Reno and Zul'jin - feels amazing
12:02 My opponent plays Ghaz'rilla in his Reno deck. Respect.
17:54 Goodybe Anduin.
18:37 Goodbye Psychic Scream
18:48 Goodbye Catrina
23:02 Goodbye Psychic Scream
26:12 The Priest thinks he can mill me?! Really...
28:50 The end game value is insane... so many big green men!
