A Classic Card Pack
If you have a great deck for this brawl, create it in our deckbuilder, and share it with the world! Just make sure to label the Deck Type as a "Tavern Brawl" while saving and it might show up on the front page!
Pogo-Hopper
Jade Shuriken
Jade Swarmer
Roll the Bones
If they ban Pogo, you have two forms of Jade and a card draw engine. If they either of the two Jades, Pogos still grow quite large quite fast. If they ban the draw, everything scales pretty quick.
Battlefiend, Mana Burn, Chaos Strike & Satyr Overseer.
Haven't lost so far.
Jade dream of last year: Tunnel Trogg, Jade Claws, Totem Golem, Jade Lightning
Mana Burn
Crimson Sigil Runner
Spectral Sight
Chaos Strike
Locking your opponent and building board of 2/1, drawing cards or attacking, fun but not entirely broken.
RNG Spell Mage worked surprisingly well so far....
Font of Power
Unstable Portal
Primordial Glyph
Apexis Blast
add evocation
I'd considered it, but it's primarily a late-game card that likes a somewhat empty hand, and that doesn't synergize with the rest.
I'm sure there are builds for this brawl that like Evocation, but I don't think this is one of them.
My opponent had Edwin VanCleef, Praise Galakrond!, Seal Fate, and Galakrond, the Nightmare.
I banned Edwin, and used mage's hero power to deal damage to both of us before he could use seal fate. I locked him out of playing anything, and since he had a full hand once he played galakrond, he couldn't even ping with rogue's hero power. Goddamn I love this brawl.
Breath of the Infinite to kill enemy 1-drops
Dragonmaw Sentinel for a very high tempo card with heals, good for if the enemy bans breath
Twilight Guardian for being a dragon and a good tempo card with taunt
Drakonid Operative for being a dragon with great stats and much value.
played The Soularium Soulfire Silverware Golem and High Priestess Jeklik against Mage
Turn 1 The Soularium coin Soulfire, put 4 Silverware Golem on board, opponent left
easy pack
My deck was this :) 4-0 then I got borred
Scrap Golem Zilliax Frightened Flunky Into the Fray
Deck of Wonders
Unstable Portal
Augmented Elekk
Astromancer Solarian
Doesn't matter what they ban. RNG is a win condition

Finally, i can play DH again on brawl! <3
WOW! So many DH haters! Well then, hope you match up against only DH, ahahaha.
Had a good win rate with taunt warrior:
Into the Fray, Bolster, Frightened Flunky, Alley Armorsmith
Had a funny game vs a priest that had 3 rez cards an a minion (was secret). Obviously selected the secret card. It was the LK and priest auto-concedes.
Yeah, having only one minion is pretty dumb. I mean, probably there can be some well-thought strategies that work, but minion-related spells and only one minion definetrly aren't one of those.
