Are you talking about standard? Standard is garbage for hunter. Try Reno hunter or Egg hunter in Wild. So fun to stick it to some star-aligner druid putz.
You won't be seeing me in the tavern for this insipid mess. Not even going to bother with the pack on my accounts, let alone the quests. Just wonder how long it will pollute - one slot reserved for 40 games of PvE and now one for this failure of a brawl. Perhaps they should add a daily quest slot if they intend to populate the existing ones with garbage.
That's one of the decks for sure. The will emote back occasionally if you spam enough, like 5 or 6 times a turn. They will also concede, but not simply because you have lethal. I usually face them with 'stock' hunter (spellstones, cats, and DK) and I confirm that they are a bot by just manhandling them for several turns despite having lethal (like I sometimes do on PvE Gauntlet in Eternal to see how negative I can get them or how positive I can get my own HP)
They are bots. My theory is that they are just farming enough dust to craft Whizbang and then they sell the account. I think accounts still get a free name change credit so then it just gets changed to your name. I have noticed a substantial reduction in performance of my F2P decks due to a significant increase in the number of players running Whizbang from 25-20.
It sure is easy to spitball bad ideas (see this week's brawl for an example). People, of course, realize that doubling the number of modes doubles the matchmaking time, right? The 'match me with the same options' would multiply this by a huge amount (better nuke a hot pocket while waiting for a 4x). If they are going to add a new mode that it time-based, it should be chess clock - you explode after X minutes of cumulative turn time. Of course, that would just be an aggro fiesta, fun times, right? Go back to the drawing board with your armchair developer suggestion.
Sure, it was a great concept. Some actual testing of that concept would have easily demonstrated what a mess it would be. Same as where I work - no ownership, no one accountable for the final project. As much as a knob that BB is, he would never have greenlighted this clown fiesta.
An easy 1/1/1. Sadly, there are actually worse brawls. Did they even consider reducing the cost of the cards by 1 to offset the hero power? Did they consider doing something to compensate Thrall and Valeera for not getting the 'battlecry' from their DK? Did anyone at Team 5 even playtest this thing besides the intern who coded it?
You clearly don't play 25-20. Everyone just dusts whatever they can to get Whizbang. That's why all the bots lately, especially in Asia. F2P decks just get stomped by Whizbang. It's the price of entry now. So kindly explain how this will be better if you have to slog through 25 more ranks?
The 50 rank thing will fail, it will actually make things worse. Anyone who is playing at 25-20 knows why. They really screwed the pooch this time, just boring as hell to play low ranks now.
Whatever, you will all buy it. You need dust to hit the ground running for the next expansion, so WW vs. TBP doesn't matter. It would be cool if they introduced 'wild' packs as part of the promo. I think a wild pack should have more commons (like 8 cards total) than the traditional packs though.

Keep that gold for the next round of gotta-haves.

Don't you have some vaporware to shill? Oh, you are. My bad.

This brawl does a great job of showcasing how the death knights are piss poor design and nothing but a shameless gotta-have money grab.

25 more levels of Whizbang vs. Whizbang. (or losing every match as F2P if that's your cup of tea) Obviously worth pushing off tournament mode to do.

Agree - with the people saying no.
