Hearthpwn

I think that there are many new decks being enabled. Blizz has given a free legendary away, and it seems like many people were fairly lucky in opening legendaries. Cubelock is still VERY strong, which has turned a lot of people off. Any new set, especially with rotation brings fresh looks at a meta. I would respectfully suggest that you keep your salt to yourself. 

Well... that seems kinda broken.

@TeslARi4 is right with another application. What about Warlock with Dark Pact? I have a feeling that this will see play in other decks besides mage. Although this with Frost Lich Jaina is just stifling.

Is it just me, or are you excited to at least see the art for when it switches back and forth? All of these seem like decent arena cards. Stormwind Knight and Dalaran Mage effective powercreeps. And before someone makes the comment about rush being different than charge, I would argue that Stormwind Knight's 2 face damage in very, very specific situations is basically negligible. It was built for trading, which Swift Messenger does far more effectively.

It has potential to see play in arena for sure. Hopefully they print some reasonable burgle cards this expansion.

No, this artwork is from the original WOW tcg. Although to your credit, he has done a lot of art for MTG and he has also done a lot of art for Pathfinder as well.

Is it just me, or is there a bug with the coin in this brawl?

Thanks for posting! The deck you posted looks like a deck that would be strong against this boss. I would encourage you to post your success on your profile. That being said, this is a completely different concept than what I was going for. the original deck is intentionally RNG dependent, where your concept is more midrange.

I decided to make this deck public because it helped me win. I have a reasonably complete collection; Budget considerations did not enter into this for me. If it was a newer boss and there was a lot of interest, I might think about updating with a guide. I would hope that the high amount of legendaries centered around Deathrattle would have given away the idea of going for value. Thanks for reporting a success Natedunn. 

How would adding that extra check add anything for new players? You just started playing hearthstone and you got a really sweet class legendary; now you want to test it out. You play against a rogue that burgles your brand new legendary and kills you with it. The end.

Take this scenario instead- facing a burgle rogue and they get complete garbage (Animated Berserker for instance). While you don't have that card, you do have acolyte of pain. You connect the dots that this can be a cool free trigger and learn about new cards you might want. 

Narrowing the pool of cards would frustrate the experienced players who play newer users. It also could result in altering the chances of getting a "bad" vs. great pull. Another consideration would be the check against a player's collection- how easy do you think writing in such a check would be? Would it have performance impacts? What if every time you played one, it took much longer to burgle the card, resulting in end of turn issues?

Cute suggestion, but honestly it seems like a babyrage nerf.

Thanks! I'm glad it worked well for you. I had never bothered to beat heroic Naxx, so I just decided to post what worked for me. over 50 on the board seems legit enough to finish him off. :P

I respectfully disagree- you are probably running into a lot of Aggro Paladin. Midrange Paladin does not run this card, since many successful lists include more healing than Aggro and can do a decent enough job managing the board with their early game minions. Since Aggro pally is becoming more popular than Midrange (according to hearthstone meta stats), I can see how you would think that every Paladin list runs Rallying Blade. Either way, Righteous Defender will be ridiculous with the all the possible synergies involved. I might have to start playing a more aggressive Paladin list.

All paladins are using Rallying Blade? I haven't seen one run competitively since before Un'Goro... But that might just be me. Although I will say that I don't play wild as much, so that might be what you are referring to.

If I were in your shoes, i would re-examine how you are playing the deck. I have faced a lot of similar decks with my rogue quest and lost most of them. Maybe you can try including some cheaper early game taunts, like Stonehill Defender. I would keep the quest, since it really helps get rid of those pesky 5/5s over time. Just a thought.

I'd think of it this way- You get one card drawn off him consistently (possibly 2) both of which are taunts to fuel the quest. In addition to this, he has 4 attack, (can't be removed by priest) and 6 Health (survives at least 1 rogue minion). So I'd say it's worth it.
