Other than the decks mentioned above I do see some demon warlock (highlander or cube), discard zoo and even shaman. Some honorable mentions that I see less frequently: Janky OTKs, usually druid. Mill rogue/druid. Jade idol. Highlander mage/druid Odd paladin. Hadronox druid. Mech aggro paladin. galakrond rogue (for some reason?)

Having an absolute blast getting back to legend via elemental quest mage. It's so refreshing to play something almost not random but not without the fun of Solarian screwing the board entirely anyways.

Speaking of Wild stuff, maybe it gets a lot less fun at higher levels (haven't played a ton in the last week and it has long games so I'm just at Plat 7), but post-Raza nerf revert I've had a surprisingly good time with my DENIAL ESPORTS priest. ### Combo Breaker # Class: Priest # Format: Wild # # 1x (1) Northshire Cleric # 1x (1) Reliquary of Souls # 1x (2) Dirty Rat # 1x (2) Netherspite Historian # 1x (2) Seance # 1x (2) Shadow Visions # 1x (2) Shadow Word: Death # 1x (2) Shadow Word: Pain # 1x (2) Zephrys the Great # 1x (3) Brann Bronzebeard # 1x (3) Deathlord # 1x (4) Duskbreaker # 1x (4) Greater Healing Potion # 1x (4) Hecklebot # 1x (4) Kazakus # 1x (5) Azure Drake # 1x (5) Drakonid Operative # 1x (5) Excavated Evil # 1x (5) Raza the Chained # 1x (5) Recruiter # 1x (6) Entomb # 1x (6) Lightbomb # 1x (6) Reno Jackson # 1x (6) Skulking Geist # 1x (7) Archbishop Benedictus # 1x (7) Psychic Scream # 1x (8) Primordial Drake # 1x (8) Shadowreaper Anduin # 1x (9) Dragonqueen Alexstrasza # 1x (9) Plague of Death # AAEBAafDAx65BtMK1wryDP4Nkg/NE8MWhRe3F8cXgrUCg7sCt7sCursC2LsC0cEC38QCyccCic0CoM4C6NACkNMCy+YC5ogDlZQD/KMDn6kDkbEDzr4DAAA= # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone - Recruiter suits what I want to do better than Spawn of Shadows with Raza/Anduin up, a lot of the time you're stabilizing at lower health and it's still 14 burst damage on an empty board. I've considered throwing in a Squashling too for the potential 12 damage/10 heal swing, but I don't know what to cut for it - Lightbomb was Dragonfire Potion until recently, the ubiquity of Dragonqueen Alexstrasza in like every slow deck made me swap that out. Debating between that and Mass Hysteria in that slot right now - While I wish I could run Unseen Saboteur too for thematic purposes, it's been really bad in practice - I've been able to heal past Odd Demon Hunters and pretty much any aggro deck that doesn't totally ball out, the really bad matchups are Big Priest, Vault Hunter, and Infinite Valeera Rogue with the 3/2s (although I haven't seen one of those in a while)

Builds up the board in no time and offers a ton of variety to throw at your opponent. The quest isn't even the center piece, the elementals are, but I put it in anyways with a few other minor adjustments from the elemental mage deck that's currently floating around, because it offers great late game potential and you can do ever meaner combos with an endless stream on discounted mage spells. Also it's fun to solve three quests in one go. Moved up to diamond 2 in no time with it, let's see if it's good enough for the final push.

With that deck the mana giants are really useful and enable the Conjurer's Callings but the legendaries really aren't essential. Have a look at Kibler's last few YouTube videos, he just hit legend with it. Yeah Kibler is running that non-quest version and runs it with duplicate Arcane Amplifiers for 3 damage hero power instead, which is good for early game and against aggro. The other legendaries in that deck are also not necessarily essential, like Solarian is always a great to have but the deck wouldn't die without her, the two combo legendaries Antonidas and Chenvalaa are more important for that, but the former you often cannot play in time so it sometimes does end up being a rather low value card if the game is going fast (which is often does in this meta), Chenvalaa is probably the most important legendary there as it can build up your board very nicely, I routinely manage to get 5 spawns out of her in one turn, but it also would not necessarily be terrible without her. Khadgar is quite vital for Summoner's Calling though, which you obviously want to throw on the Mana Giants if possible, but I also had great successes using it on the dragon quest minion or even getting some lucky summons by mashing it onto Mana Cyclone's or even regular Solarian. The general style in my version revolves around generating spells and minions to do crazy stuff, Kibler's version is less dependent on spells and focuses on the general value the elementals give combined with spawning minions with Khadgar and a higher tempo. The reason I fiddled with the quest concept at all is because you play soooo many spells in such a short time frame that adding a quest seemed like a viable option and so far it does, as this way I can outrun other Mages and even priests or control heavy warriors by generating more stuff than usual. If I'd face nothing but DH and Face Hunters currently, I'd probably go back to Kibler's version instead and throw 3 damage fire bolts on everything that moves.

Thanks, khadgar and chenvalah are the two legendaries I do have, so I would just have to craft the arcane giants. Any recommendations for replacing invocation and solarion?

Ah right, forgot about Evocation. That one is very nice with the apprentice to throw out a ton of spells at once, but you can probably replace it with another spell. If you want to double down on the random part of Solarian, an unironic yogg box might be an option, a general alternative might be some control freeze spell like frost nova, just because I figured freezing stuff via spells I get from evocation often saved me well. You can fiddle around what to prefer on that though, maybe some more board control spell like rolling fireball, or cone of cold or maybe even a single secret just because. In exchange for Solarian, although I would recommend to craft that one as it's a great card in general for all mage decks, I'd suggest another elemental like animated avalanche. I considered adding it, but the cost and the lack of option to replace it with made me stick with this list. It's a quite good card and good for value on the board, it's just atypcially expensive for this deck. Might work well though! Feel free to report back what you chose and how it worked out for you.

Wondering if anyone has a link to a battlegrounds clip I remember. It's Brann/Khadgar antics, except in Bob's Tavern. Rafaam somehow plays the 1/1 token that instantly attacks, that hits a Yo-Ho-Hogre, that hits the 2/1 Pirate and makes a billion loving tokens or something? I think it was Chinese. Alternatively, any clips of things happening during the tavern phase with attacks are funny. e: ok found it a minute afte rposting. wasn't exactly as i remembered, was even better. proclick https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/he7jmd/next_generation_battleground_strategy_found_this/ Quotey fucked around with this message at 18:01 on Jul 6, 2020 |

I’ve been playing this list for ~15 games now, and it’s both unique AND good! I feel a little shy about sharing it since I don’t want to see it everywhere, but also I gotta gush about it... This is an extremely meta control warrior deck that’s entirely spells + lackey weapons + huge minions. Your optimal mulligan is, like: Sword and Board + Bladestorm + Ramming Speed + Corsair Cache Just sit back, hero power, and keep the board clean until you can start dropping fat taunts. Dimensional Rippers: in aggro matchups, these guys are either summoning taunts or rush/chargers (or Argus who will then cast it 2 more times). That’s usually a good enough play on its own, and if they don’t have answers it’s where you start winning. The occasional ripper after you’ve put Kargath Prime in your deck is supremely juicy. In control matchups, they’re insane value, and MOST control decks are optimized to deal with swarms of minions, not big fatties. Bulwark of Azzinoth: honestly a really good card — especially if you have a taunt wall up. Playing that guy while sitting on 6 health just feels good — they need to hit you four times and THEN do more damage?! Unlikely. Also it can get pulled by Corsair Cache for 5 hits. I’ve enjoyed playing it, and I hope someone else does too.

Help I can't stop playing Galakrond Priest. Between Thoughtsteal, Shadow Madness, Madam Lazul, Soul Mirror, Murozond, Veilweaver, card generation, ect. you can pull off so much hilarious bullshit. I just faced a Pure Paladin and stole both of his Libram of Wisdom, and even made them cost 0 with a Thoughtstolen Aldor Truthseeker. People really need to play around Shadow Madness more. Currently at 1520 wins with Priest. My only other class that's even golden is Mage with 733.

Dr Christmas posted:Battlegrounds have been around for a full expansion cycle. When do they stop being in the beta? What would be the difference? I'd assume they would do that as soon as the development itself is more or less complete and they focus on balance patches and maybe new stuff once per expansion. Now they still are introducing new minion types and fiddle around a lot, we get in total more patches for battlegrounds than regular hearthstone due to the density of patches and they still try out new heroes etc. I'd assume they will go out of beta as soon as they are happy with the number of minion types (elementals and totem are technically still missing, if they want to go for that), the total number of minions and the available hero, focus on balancing instead of introducing new stuff every few weeks and only swap out heroes or minion rotations once per expansion. Don't think it will be a true difference than it is now for the regular player, just everything being a bit slower and less new stuff in longer time frames. Plus I think they won't take it out of beta before the other new game mode drops.

Yeah, your version is pretty much Kibler's take, but you added Incanter's to it which he doesn't. I realize that that one is simply more reliable, the reason it worked for me so far to climb that well is probably due to the fact that I mostly fought non-aggro decks for some reason. My main enemy was rogue until legend, which I was able to outcombo in late game using my constant stream of spells. A same result I got from fighting priests which along with control warriors and druids were my main opponents on the climb up. Your version is more reliable and faster, which certainly should give more control and faster lethal against aggro and generally faster decks which I assumed to meet more, I guess I just got lucky in my way up. A 40 to 50% rate (currently looking at 66%) in total sounds more reasonable given the obvious weaknesses my version includes. So yeah, if you're focused on climbing better use that one for a better style and straightforward solutions in most situations. However, I'll add that the quest is more fun.
