Clockwork Card Dealer - Standard

Tinkertown gnomes are testing their prototype card-bot: Optimotron! The card you draw on turn 1 will be a 1-cost card, if you have one. On turn 2, a 2-cost card...

Boy have I missed that one ...

...not!

Everyone complain about curvestone. Blizzard repeat this particular brawl.

Such a troll move.

OMG THIS TAVERN BRAWL IS SO MUCH FUN!1!1!!!!

At least there is no Dr. 7.

So jsut play a dragon deck I guess, or hunter also got a good curve, at least not just secret paladin vs secret paladin.

If you lack new cards, Secret Paladin is a good deck to draft. Otherwise, it looks like Jade decks would be quite snowball-y

Standard only makes this a bit interesting.

I hope this is the only brawl that will be Standard. Brawl is literally the only reason I have kept my Wild cards. Hopefully in the future once these expansions cycle out, I'll enjoy wild.

won my requisite game with deathrattle hunter.

Honestly, I liked this one a lot, but I was looking forward to last year's winterveil brawl so much... Are they not repeating it?

Did it with secret hunter. Always start with Secretkeeper.

Standard tavern brawl?! Lame

I tried this and actually worked xD

This is the one where you auto lose if you go second.

agreed, everyone builds controlish decks assuming they will go first.  I did face a kindof interesting board clear heavy warlock which seemed to be geared to going second or playing defense - but going first is such a huge advantage when you are picking which cards you will play each turn (hint: hunter).

then at the end of the deck I dogpiled a bunch of 9 and 10+ mana cards that I didn't really want or expect just so that from 1-8 there is virtually perfect certainty about what i will draw (also with no or little card draw/discovery)

Rafaam is pretty brutal of a 9 drop and taking the deal 10 random damage as a finisher.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but how is this brawl different from playing a regular game? I can't figure out what I'm missing. Thanks.
