The Lord of Hats posted:The first book of mercenaries, the Warrior one, was pretty okay. The priest one was a horrible slog because they didn't ever give you any actual wincons. The Mutanus fight is just loving terrible in every loving way. The NPC has a lethal permanent buff that renders your cheap mind control card worthless because the buff doesn't apply to both sides of the board, and if you don't get the mana wipe and have both Nourishes in hand when you play it, you're hosed. If you play the summon two with five or less and don't get a Lake Thresher to slap poison on, you're hosed. If you don't get the right cards on your first and second draw, you're hosed. If you can't play the "summon two" card before the universal +4/+4, you're hosed because that's now a dead card. This is just loving un-fun on all levels and whoever designed this needs to be karmically loving punished.

I found the previous fights harder than Mutanus, his stuff you can ramp up to bigger minions than his fairly fast, while the adventuring party boss has inf8nite value and a one sided sweeper, you need a fast start against them or you just die. The poison boss is also a real tough time with so many of your cards just trading 1 for 1 with a token

Easiest way to beat Mutanis is take Rokara as your hero power and full mulligan for Moonfang or something that pulls Moonfang. Moonfang with Taunt that you can buff up is a great stabilizer vs. the oversized murlocs. Use the mind controls to get rid of annoying snowbally murlocs like Flurgal or w/e the aoe aura one is. Guffs deck is pure trash though, Celestial Alignment will kill you a lot of the time, and honestly except for Mutanis, I found the mage hero power to be by far the best for letting you stall out forever and protect your dogshit minions lol.

Hey heads up it looks like Madame Lazul is in the store now so you can grab her if you want a priest hero that isn't Anduin or Tyrande (spoilers: it's me I do)

All of the Book of Heroes and Mercs continue to remind me how completely bizarrely wasted their efforts are. They paid voice actors for this! They paid artists for this! They even change cards to make more lore sense! But they seem to have dumped the deck and fight design on their lowest paid interns.

I have not completed any after the first. I don't even care about the class pack, that's how much of a slog they are. But then again they are more often than not 4 useless commons and a rare anyways. But they are absolutely not their own reward.

My favourite thing about them is that they still don't let you loving skip the god damned introductions ever, even if you have heard them once already because you quit and closed Hearthstone. Like holy hell Goat Lady, you have established you need this shiny rock to save your daughter like 3 times already we don't need to go over this again gently caress

AnacondaHL posted:If you're down to play Rush Warrior, it has a favorable matchup vs Hunter. Shield of Honor has fallen out of favor, here is the current base list: It's funny, because I was just thinking of how I didn't understand how to use shield of honor properly and was looking for replacements. Using this new list has turned a lot of my more recent losses from "There is no possible way I could have won this match" to "Oh, I see what mistake I made". ETC was a huge missing component, as he brings enough face damage to finish off many opponents with rush minions. Troublemaker is fun as hell, turns an empty board into MINE!

Speaking of Rush Warrior, it seems like a good pick for today's brawl. Specifically, the Playmaker / Parade Leader / Bumper Car / Rokara package. Opponent banned Rokara but it didn't matter.

ETC was a huge missing component, as he brings enough face damage to finish off many opponents with rush minions. Shield of Honor is a holdover from the old Risky Skipper days, and in this deck was meant almost exclusively to be cast on Warmaul Challenger. Also, hot news as of today (I may have contributed to convincing vS that) Archdruid Naralax is worth running in Rush Warrior, so the new Vanilla build is now: -1 Tent Trasher +1 Archdruid Naralax Fans of Overlord Saurfang may be happy to hear a variant with this card will be highlighted, intending to be better vs Priest. N'Zoth is a trap though.

Cpt_Obvious posted:*squints* why? Most of the outcomes are useable. 36% to just absolutely blow out a Druid/Hunter/Rogue board, Dream for 6/6 elemental taunts or Apotheosis'd minions, Nightmare for surprise burst from hand (also Blademaster Samuro), and the minions can be handbuffed for value or just tempo'd out if you need a bridge towards your Conditioning turn. Tent Trasher is the backup draw target for Ringmaster Whatley, I've been happy with at least 1 copy in every decklist I play. And exploiting the mana reduction highroll can be game winning (Turn 1 Ganarg, Turn 2 Bumper Car, Turn 3 5/5 dragon). But it's overall worse than Crabrider in faster matchups.

Tried a couple games with the change so far, and it improves the Hunter matchup so much it’s ridiculous. They just can’t answer a Ysera Awakens when it hits their rhino. Especially if you start putting out Conditioning’d minions afterwords.

There's something amusing about running a sleeping guy in a Rush deck, so yeah I'll be playing that one for a bit. Regarding the Guff storyline, I recently opened Smythe in a Duels reward pack and I'm seriously tempted to dust him after that battle. What a dipshit man, leave the turtles alone.

For this weeks brawl. Opponent will probably ban pogo hopper but with reasonable draw you can still have a full board of mechwarpers on t1. Regardless of what they ban you should be able to win. I played my whole deck against the priest I faced by turn 4. ### Brawl Deck # Class: Rogue # Format: Wild # # 1x (0) Counterfeit Coin # 1x (1) Pogo-Hopper # 1x (1) Secret Passage # 1x (2) Mechwarper # AAEBAZurBASUD/W7Atf6AqrLAwAA # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone

Ysera is so unbalanced as a legendary in Arena it might well be the most broken card ever printed. For sure the most broken neutral. Not even unnerfed DQA was worse than this because at least there was usually a chance to still win because the 0 cost dragons didn't necessarily immediately impact the board. Across all classes, including the most losing ones, the win % after playing the card is 78.5% lol. In most classes the second highest winrate card, including class cards, is like 10% lower than that. Sure have a 1 mana sap and a 3 mana Flamestrike, seems good. Not even Il'Gynoth in Constructed has a higher win % when played lmao.

If anyone needs some easy tavern brawl wins suit this up Living Roots Adorable Infestation Mark of the Lotus Gibberling Your opponent will panic ban gibberling aka your worst card, allowing you to flood and win. Punched out my win 5 quest in an instant.
