I highly recommmend Togwaggle with small minions (especially combos), control spells, and the ramp weapon. The small minions means you can almost always stay below 8 cards, negating Vaelastrasz's draw power without burn, and the ramp lets you overpower bosses and flood the board. I managed to beat Ragnaros turn 6 (with 10 mana), just before his hero power upgraded. 39 minutes, 26 seconds. If you have good control (Lackeys and combos help with this), Garr should be manageable (imo hardest boss). Nefarian isn't especially powerful, especially in that he starts with less mana than you do due to his hero power. Atramedes is a challenge with this playstyle - keep in mind that he will generally go face into minions, and make sure to destroy his weapon before it gets over 4 or so. A sound tactic is leaving one mana to destroy his weapon at the end of a board-flooding turn.
Good luck!
I got 19 minutes 7 seconds. by choosing the Rogue class. The first 2 treasures that I picked as rewards were BOTH the ones that give 2 'cursed' cards to my opponent. He was taking 8 damage a turn and that was just an insurmountable advantage for me. Very fun indeed
Lol, did this in 17 minutes doing the same thing as you. Thank you
whats the best choice for speed?
Bombs
I like the brawl but that one boss that does the 1 dmg a turn is a pain in the arse! that is all...
17 times Y'Shaarj with Togwaggle's dice.... that was fun
After the less than amazing display with the last brawl, I am presently surprised by the return of one of the more interesting types of brawls. The Blackrock Crash is quite a lot of fun, challenging some of the most iconic bosses of Hearthstone yesteryear. Even as a player for only a few months, I can appreciate the nostalgia value this brings. Additionally as stated above, for those who were not around in 2015, you can now get the wonderful red and gold Ragnaros card back. Always happy to see bosses return in tavern brawls. I often find AI more fun to play against because they WILL NEVER ROPE YOU.
and rafam where is he?
Yeah - thats' the only thing I don't like about this brawl. It should be game time.
same this was not made clear
It means that you have to do it all at once, and spend as little time as possible choosing treasures and cards. It makes sense, it's just a shame that it also counts time out of game. Maybe lazy coding?
96 hours xd, i forgot that i never finished my second run haha
The easiest way Is actually to play as shaman, get Duplatransmogrifier, And transorm you deck into Murgatha, The Muscle, Grimmer Patron or aby other great active minion treasure.
21 min with bomb warrior ^^
Love the "lore" created by HS, nice job
love that it also counts for all quests!
isn't bomb warrior a slow deck?
24 min for me as Dr. Boom, nice rewards and very nice Brawl. Thanks Blizzard, really!
I didn't get the card back :(
Edit: Ok, apparently I already had it because it was given in 2015 :P
