Summer Championship Decks
We've got a dedicated post from last week which includes all the competitor deck lists. Go check them, along with a roundup of the class and archetype breakdowns, and the most popular cards, on the dedicated post .
Summer Championship Stream
All the action can be found on the official stream embedded below. Refer to the schedule above to know when to come back and tune in.
Does anyone have information on what we can do if we did not receive the packages we were suppose to receive?
So when do we get our boosters my fingers is itching to open packs.
Just in case people wonder what happened to Pavel.... the topdeck draw RNG did. One of that games where you just dont draw anything good.
That last series was quite enjoyable, hell, the final day had a lot of great Hearthstone. Hopefully the World Championship is similar though with a less cookie cutter tournament meta. With an expac launching in December though, it's 5-6 weeks to figure things out though which may lead to some serious ResidentSleeper choices.
Congrats Surrender.you never surrender
Roflmao.
See. I TOLD YOU Pavel would lose in the very first bracket. You know why? Because I voted for him!
The jinx is still alive, going three years strong now! Or was it two...? Fuck it I forget!
thanks for the packs orange. i voted him for no apparent reason. all hail rngesus!
I just saw the games against Pavel... the way he lost so stupid. Shaman against Shaman and Orange draws tempo, while Pavel draws 2 Bloodlust, DK, Evolve/Devolve and two falme totems.
How on earth do you win like that?
To be honest... Pavel has 2x Bloodlust in his deck, while orange replaced one with Giant... Orange had more tempo cards in his Shaman deck than other Shamans in tournament... Though I don't know... I voted for Purple, so that match didn't really matter as much for me...
If you put more temp in your deck you will only draw those cheep minions that dont do stuff. If you add big stuff you only draw the high cost cards and have no early game.
To be fair he had a chance to play 1 of the bloodlust , i would have definetly used the bloodlust on turn 5 especialy since i knew he is running 2 bloodlust and my enemy just had kazakus potion then on turn 6 he can have dragonfire so why not do that +18 dmg to face since he may clear your board from here on out
maybe read whole comment not just part of the sentence , since when does shaman have dragon fire potion??
PacksNoPavel!
It looks like I picked the correct colour for once..
Thanks for the packs dude!
Hell yeah, go Orange!! One more to go you got this!!
C'mon Purple, be the one to break the curse !
Win me those sweet, sweet packs.
I voted for Orange FeelsGoodMan
Never lucky with packs man .
Thijs voter here,
now disappointed by pavel :(
