I have not played arena for some time before gvg free arena, because I did terrible in last few runs. (My last 5 runs before GvG free arena were 1,2,1,5,0 wins) In my free arena I got to 3-3 with a mage, so nothing special. Then I decided to play some arenas before expansion hits to get still classic packs from them. First I picked paladin, with pretty weird draft-minimum amount of rares+pilloted shredder, I even picked 2x wild pyromancer with few spells and no equality, because the alternative picks were bad. I even got few picks like repentance, stonetusk boar, young dragonhawk. Luckily lot of common cards was at least average, no consecration though. I ended 6-3 and got 75 gold+55 dust.
I was happy, that I got some good run decided to play another arena, where I picked druid over mage, because I like druid more. I got very good option, although 1 epic, no legendary and just 3 rares. But all my common cards were good and weakest links were silvermoon guardian+2nd claw, but that was fine, because 2x claw and 1x wrath balanced my early game, where I had not so much 1-2 mana minions. I ended 10-3 and got 350 gold total from rewards+pack with 4x common+ancient mage. This was my deck.
I also need a little advice. I have almost all common cards available, lot of rare cards, I have 2x key rare cards for most classes/key neutral rares (auchenai, argus, azure, keeper...) , 2x some other rares from packs and 0-1 other rares. I have only a few epics-8 cards (but I disenchanted some far sight/mindgames) and 5 non-naxx legends (Cairne, malygos, cenarius, tirion, the beast) When I open packs common cards get instantly dusted, but I still miss a lot of important legendaries/epics. What packs are better for me in my current situation? Classic or or GvG? Sorry for the long post.
Hey, I made this deck long time ago and after seeing this thread I found that with GWG It can now do 0 dmg if you don't count opponent attacking or silencing ancient watcher. It used to have 22 dmg maximum, but now it's 0 :D
With mirror entity mage will only have 3/15 jarraxus minion, right? I suppose it's the same as playing defender of argus that buffs your minions, but mage get only the 2/3 body without special effect from mirror entity.
I'm now using thoughsteal instead of haunted creeper and cairne instead of baron. But I still feel like something is missing. Maybe injured blademaster?
I'm trying to ladder with something different, than hunter and zoo (my main decks) and made this with minimum crafting. Surprisingly it works quite well even without more expensive priest cards like cabal. Only thing I crafted for this deck was 2x soulpriest. Rest of deck I crafted either for other decks or got in packs. I use cairne instead of baron rivendare, but I wanted to make this budget version, and it's budget for me as I got Cairne from pack.
I'm rank 14 after not too much games and currently on winstreak. Deck works quite good against hunter/zoo, it has lot of board control, but it's weaker vs control I guess (But that's why there are 2x SW:D) Do you think it's worth to get 1 MC somewhere so a situation like I have in description won't happen?
Edit: I'm not sure if this is weak against control, I'm almost always playing against aggro, so far but I beat some secret mage and control warrior (by luck in fatigue with 20+ armor from shadow madness+armorsmith+kelthuzad combo)
I have an idea for simple guessing game. I'll explain how it can work. Anybody can post a deck for others to guess in this topic. I decided to add 3 rules to avoid too much useless posts.
1. Post your arena deck in this topic, if you already finished your arena run and you are interested in this. Try to post it here so that people can see directly what cards were in your deck.
2. Anybody can try to guess how many wins that arena deck got. Please guess number of wins ONLY in comments for that decks. (This topic is for posting decks. I want to avoid having here guessing comments to have more space for comments with decks.)
3. After somebody guesses correct number of wins, or after some time with no good guesses deck creator replies to all comments about his actual score with his deck, or post his result here. (I'm not sure yet.)
I can't stop people from lying about their scores, but please don't do it... This is meant just for fun and anybody can join. I'm not sure if you'd like it or be interested in it, but I'll see.
I'll start with this deck: Can you guess how many wins I got with that? Post your guesses in deck's comments.
If the only way for you to win the game this turn is by using double soulfire or soulfire+doomguard to opponent's face, your first soulfire will always cause you to discard second soulfire or doomguard no matter how many other cards you have in hand. Your opponent's chance to kill you his next turn increases by 99%
If Webspinner was golden, then that cards that come from it are golden as well. Same as golden Thoughtsteal, etc. So if Webspinner was not a golden card, then he did not get King Krush from it.
I don't remember if the webspinner was golden or not, so it's possible that he was just lucky to got golden King Krush in pack and played it in his deck, but he could got it from webspinner too. It really doesn't matter, how it was, but it was sure bad luck to lose like this. (He got only 1 card in hand)
Thanks for explaining this thing with gold/normal webspinner. That's all I wanted to know.
I just played against hunter. I knew that I can kill him in 2 turns and we both had empty boards. I was at 15 life and then he played golden king krush and he killed me turn after with it (I had 15 life). He played webspinner few rounds earlier and I don't think he played beast card he got when his webspinner died. It's possible, that he got golden king krush from that webspinner, or I was just too unlucky and lost, because he played golden king krush in his regular deck?
It is arena worth for me? My last 6 runs were (no particular order) 1,2,3,4,5,5 wins. 1 win I got with shaman with pretty bad draft and terrible luck (except for game where I won against mage and I had 1 hp left, othervise superfast zoo rushdown with destroying my board and my bad draws. Pala who won after about turn 6 avenge and he traded well after that point and hunter who cleared board with uth+mark and had 4/9 tauntjaw, when I tossed hex from my start hand-dumb play I feel now.) 2 wins was with paladin where I got terrible pick oportunities, where draft didn't gave me any removal and it was hard to play with 0 removal in arena.
I have first 2 quarters only. And getting 1400 gold would cost me 2-3 weeks with no buying packs/arenas at best. Do you think it's worth buying it for money?

What about give a friendly minion +1/+1 hero power?

Ogre ninja! What's next? Tauren rogue? :D

I can imagine lucky hunter start with this. Turn 1 coin+call pet. Turn 2 Highmane... Have fun :D
But it's not likely to happen, because nobody plays beast themed hunter, thanks to buzzard nerf.

Rule of 2x soulfire or soulfire+doomguard
If the only way for you to win the game this turn is by using double soulfire or soulfire+doomguard to opponent's face, your first soulfire will always cause you to discard second soulfire or doomguard no matter how many other cards you have in hand.

Don't lie your cheapest deck must have been this. Everybody used full basic mage deck at least against first few bosses in tutorial :D
