2nd October update: Freeze Mage Experiments: Curator vs no Curator / Where's my Alexstrasza? (Wild)(1080p)
My first attempt at playing Freeze Mage. Please excuse any misplays. We are on Wild mode here - and we are evaluating two different decks (one with Curator and one without).
Time for some more Wild mode ladder fun. I try out the Rattlegods Shaman deck. Cairnes everywhere! Kel'Thuzads everywhere! It's chaos and my opponents don't know what to do! Please note - I created this BEFORE the nerf went live today (3/10/16). The only cards impacted in this deck are Tuskar and Yogg. But they are not the focus of the deck. The focus is KT and your deathrattle cards.
Karazhan Arena. My new favourite class is Warrior. This video showcases some key highlights - weapons everywhere, ending games with Gorehowl to the face, Onyxia value and Obsidian Destroyer board presence. Fun times. This video was produced pre-nerf (hence Execute costing 1).
13th October: Hearthstone Secrets N'Zoth Hunter: using Flare to beat Freeze Mages (Wild)(1080p)
The nerf to Call of the Wild has happened. Is it sill viable? Let's take a look. It's time for some Wild Mode. It's time for some secrets. It's time for Explosive Shot? it's time for Flare? Oh yes... the Freeze Mage never saw it coming ;-)
In this video, I profile a friend - AKO. He is a casual player with very little time on his hands. Yet he manages to make good decks within seconds, and without having access to all the cards. This video is a celebration of his efforts at playing Hearthstone and how he can still be competitive despite having little time to play.
So the nerf to Call of the Wild has arrived. How about Ragnaros as a replacement for one Call of the Wild? We try out some more Wild mode midrange hunter...This is a follow-up to my previous video on Secrets N'zoth hunter.
Midrange Shaman is seen as a tier 1 deck. it is everywhere on the Standard mode ladder. This particular version maintains a very strong board presence. The real MVP though is Harrison!
Time to try something different. I made a zoolock deck for wild mode - with the usual favourites - Flame Imp, Jugglers, eggs, Leeroy, etc... But then I added Prince Malchezaar and Lord Jaraxxus - for a late game push. Zoolock can run out of steam sometimes. You tap tap tap. They clear your board. Then you find you are out of health and out of cards. Lets see if the Prince can solve that problem. Is this a deck I would recommend for the ladder? No. But it is fun for questing on casual mode. Your opponent also will not expect the Prince and his legions. You have the element of surprise.
For a change, I thought I would engage with the Asia server. New challenges? New play style? A bit of fun! This video documents the start of my journey on this new server. The next video will showcase me using a 'proper' deck to ladder with.
I also open 60 packs in this video - I was not happy with the legendaries :-(
26th October update: Pavel's minion heavy Tempo Mage vs the Warrior that won't die (Standard)(1080p)
I have played lots of Wild mode on my channel recently. Time to return to Standard (briefly). Pavel's Tempo Mage is interesting - since it is minion heavy. It worked really well for me. No Yogg needed. Game 1 = The Hunter that died quickly to Dreadscale! Game 2 = The Priest that stalled forever but died eventually. Game 3 = The Warrior that just wouldn't die at 2 health!
29th October update: ILikeCabbage Presents: Taunt Heaven. Goldshire Footman ready for action! (Wild)(1080p)
The Goldshire Footman has been biding his time...Well his time has come. He is ready for action!! This video showcases ILikeCabbage's taunt deck. It was used to complete the taunt quest. He actually won a game against a Secrets Paladin! Fun times!
Is the ladder getting you down? Do you feel you are making progress by winning a game, but then losing your next two games? We all have those moments where the ladder grind gets to us. Sometimes, the best solution is simply to play Secrets Paladin and destroy the ladder. Even after Karazhan and Old Gods, this is still the most broken deck in the Wild meta.
I needed a deck to play on the Asia server. Something to get me past 18, My free to play decks were not doing well. So after buying Karazhan, it was time to unleash the might of Totem Shaman - without Tunnel Trogg. Great fun! Bulld a board. Keep the board. Totem Might. Bloodlust and win.
Warlock Arena. Asia Server. Floating Watcher. Enough said. YESSS! Also - check out the last game with the Paladin who played double Moat Lurker. I had the perfect answer ;-)
29th September: Trying out Kolento's Dragon Curator Warrior: Deathwing and card draw value (Standard)(1080p)

Curator draws you cards. Deathwing clears the board. What more do you need? :-)
