Hearthpwn

Idiocy. To break even (even I tell you not even gain something), you have to get six wins in the most cheesed out version of the game before you lose three times?

How is anyone possibly foolish enough to delve into the sewer of Hearthstone that is Heroic Tavern Brawl.  Ugh. I'm sure some people will sit there and try to sway rubes in off the street by saying it's not that bad, but are that many Hearthstone players such intensely degenerate gamblers?

I guess it is an appropriate tavern brawl for the week they run the Kentucky Derby.

This was my best packout of 80 or so (sorry for the tooltip over Kun)...

Can we just ban Midrange Shaman straight-up? I mean full refund for cards, and delete the class. How is anyone supposed to be creative or even have fun when it's all but over on turn five unless you're playing a direct counter deck.

Also, how does a class get provided so many darned answers/drops that they can casually plop down both Flamewreathed Facelesses and Totem Golems after you've cleared their completely full board twice!? (Happened to me today with all four and another time with a Flamewreathed and a totem golem)

I fidgeted with this a smidge before finally going full miracle, but I did settle on two changes...

-1 Brann and -1 Nourish

for

+2 Starfall

It really helps with aggro decks. Brann does make a GREAT target for only one mob using him.  The problem is that the aggro decks feed off of the extra cards so it winds up as a problem. I'm over 50% with it this way, but aggro can still destroy me without a second thought it feels.

Definitely Sylvannas. Black Knight would be second. N'Zoth could be second, but you shouldn't play him without Sylvannas.

Good point on Brawl.  In any combo deck, I'm always concerned about getting the combo, but I do need a clear board before I try it.

Maybe Emperor Thaurissan so I can Brawl and use Ancient Shieldbearer in the same turn?  -2 Battle Rage, +2 Brawl, -1 Crazed Worshipper, +1 Emperor Thaurissan?

That's the tricky part. Kill Majordomo THEN do combo. I'd give it a 50/50, but if you can kill majordomo yourself then do it that's ideal.

Hello all!

So I was playing around with Ancient Shieldbearer on my alternate account, and I had a 20 point armor drop with Brann Bronzebeard and ASB. That got me thinking that the combo could create an opportunity for the horrid Ragnaros hero replacement from Majordomo Executus to actually be viable. 28 health (effectively) with an 8 damage a pop hero power?

I crafted a deck to try this out and would appreciate theories on success... Thanks in advance!

So many druids with so many taunts and a huge C'Thun to top it off!  I was getting wrecked... Had to revive my The Black Knight

Hello all... It's only been a couple hours of play so far, but I have had the majority of my games against C'Thun Taunt Druids. These guys are BUSTING ME UP! Putting some silence and a Black Knight in now.  Anyone else?

I sort by upvotes. Get your battlenet friends to upvote it and that will help.  If it can get on the main page as a "hot" deck then you'd be set.

That said, I'm looking at it, and there are some definite hurdles to it being widely praised.

1st: It uses a few lower ranked legendaries (Confessor, Eydis, Harrison, and Saraad) which aren't BAD, but are typically not crafted (meaning the chance that someone opened all of them and kept them is low.  I might craft one to mess with a deck, but crafting up to four legendaries to try a deck when there are decks which require only one or two legendaries to reach legend in a season is hard to push.

2nd: It's interesting, but off meta in terms of abusive face SMOrc.  It's a decent priest deck, but it suffers from a definitive anti-smorcness it would seem AND it takes on too many sacred cows (your aversion to CoH with Auchanai)

3rd: It's 1/3rd Wild. Right now the decks to watch are probably going to be Standard decks if they carry the "Legend" tag.  Does it survive the conversion without delving into more hard to find cards?

I'll look at it again before deciding to upvote, but I'd definitely have a swap list for the big legendaries and perhaps a standard conversion (with evidence of success with the GvG and Naxx gone.

I. Love. This. Brawl!

Turn 2 Astral Communion

Turn 3 Mekengineer

Profit.

"Card adjustments will be reactive"

This what makes "Wild" a secondary mode for me. Not only will it be the "wild" west (imagine some of the Alpha and Beta MtG players coming back and dropping lotus, double mox, channel, fireball, fork with a seven card "deck"), but if they do rebalance something it's going the way of the Warsong Commander. What do they care? Now, they're NOT going to care unless it is almost unbeatable (which means if Patron Warrior existed during the "Wild" format it quite possibly would've been left as is).

Another question is will they even give full refunds if they nerf wild cards? You may be like "surely", but why even risk it?

Quote from SinnFull >>

I just finished a game and won, witch is pretty nice. Right away the guy i just played is asking me for friendship and i was positive becouse it was a fair fight and it was nice to battle him. When i sayd "hi there" he started to curse right away. I was a mother........ and a son of a .......

How low can you go, and is there a possibility to report these guys ??

I don't know if I'm going to go so far as to dust ALL of my old expansion and adventure cards, but I don't have the card pool to compete in the current format really so I definitely don't want to go into the "WILD" west and get nuked by those guys who are already beating me up especially when a new expansion comes out and probably creates progressively more crazy combos and synergies. I did that with MtG years ago and could probably do it now with cards people haven't even heard of much less seen in fifteen years. Show up with a eight card 2 forest, 1 mountain, fastbond, channel, fireball, sol ring deck (since we're unrestricted and all).

That said, I wouldn't mind having Kel'Thuzad or Boom for some class challenges or tavern brawls if it comes to it.

Honestly I'm surprised so many people are planning to play wild as is.
