tbh you dont need to run the big otk package anubrehkan and the armor package slot into the old ramp druid just fine and it dominates most dk variants

I'm not sure how it'll settle into the meta, but I'd unpacked a signature Anubrekhan and had been having a blast with this deck. I hit one guy with Brann>Anubrekhan>2x Astalor>Denathrius for almost 100 dmg. Feels like I'm dodging a lot of Pathwerks but it's been great fun.

I'd like to congratulate Blood DK for singlehandedly killing the traditional start-of-expansion aggro rush.

(Note: I don't actually know if aggro's dead, I just know it's a pain in the rear end to deal with if you're running an unoptimized aggro deck.)

I was playing VS's Rager Priest against a Blood DK. Guy actually managed to survive through at least 30 Ragers, with 4 Vampiric Blood and so much lifesteal. I think I did at 120 to his face before running out of resources.

It's pretty funny. Don't worry if you don't have Asvedon, he's honestly not very good.

I'm not sure if I just needed a break, but I found the last two metas to be incredibly boring and unfun while I'm having a blast with the first two days of the death knight meta. Running three decks: a modified version of the disruption warrior above by cutting renathal and a few other cards that I didn't have anyway, the aggro horde death knight, and a deathrattle rogue that is SUPER fun but unrefined.

I've only played enrage warrior yesterday and few matches today, and I've lost to 1 blood DK. I've also yet to play against frost or unholy DK's and a few other classes. Quite the expansion I must say.

Not gonna pretend this isn't anything other than durdly silliness but I like it a lot more than Shockspitter because it has board and durdle to survive against other spell decks and still quite a bit of blowup if not 42 dmg brann combos. Feels a lot better than Naga Hunter was last week but that could easily just be everyone playing bad poo poo so eh.

As a youth I prayed, "Give me chastity and continence, but not yet."
I thought I was in the usual early-set predicament of having not having the cards for any new good decks but then I saw I could build Shockspitter Hunter and I'm having a good time with it. At first I misread the card and thought they powered up with hero powers rather than attacks, I wonder if that might be a nerf option because it forces you to use more mana.

So are the opinions on the cashgrab DK miniset still 'meh just craft and use your gold on packs' or should i use the 2000 gold I've reserved on it? Seen at least one decklist with Forstmourne already and I imagine the tipping point for 'better value than 20 packs' is having to craft some of those legendaries and epics

The Republic of Luna Equestria is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, cynical population of 714m are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich.

If you want the cards the mini set is way better value to buy than to craft. You cannot get it in packs. 2000 gold is great value for the cards if you want them.

Obviously free is better but that's not on the table like it was with dh.

Fun new version of the surprise Doomsayer: I used the Shaman location to evolve a card, and turned it into Bonelord Frostwhisper, which my opponent was immediately able to kill.

I managed to get some big cards, like a free Denathrius, but they had counters to them. On my last turn they suddenly resigned! I wonder if it was something in real life calling them away, or if they gravely misinterpreted its effect.

Right but ‘will I want them?’ Is my question. People weren’t high on the more expensive to craft cards before, wondering if that’s changed or it’s still too soon to tell

Yes, please leave my Brann on board and focus your attention on the Mograine I played along Brann on turn 10.

Let me just follow up with a Hematurge to get two chances at discovering another Mograine.

Oh, there he is.
Enjoy 12 face damage at the end of my turns going forward then.
Granted, this was a tremendously dumb misplay from my opponent, but Brann + triple Blood Rune with Mograine (and single blood rune Patchwerk :lol:) is :discourse:

Brann was super icky before, will they keep him in standard for another 4 months?
Knowing them, I'd wager they'll probably nerf Mograine first by adding a non-trivial corpse requirement.
