wocobob posted:That's about what I thought. They're gonna have their work cut out for them balancing it between arena (62% winrate, literally the only class that can win consistently besides Paladin) and constructed (48% winrate, no good decks). buff the cards, lower their offer rate in arena drafts the tricky part is balancing both at once

That VS report mentioned Evolve Shaman and I thought it looked neat but I didn't have dust for all the legendaries, so I did this: ### Jank Evolve Shaman # Class: Shaman # Format: Standard # Year of the Hydra # # 2x (1) Convincing Disguise # 2x (1) Muck Pools # 2x (1) Schooling # 2x (1) Windchill # 2x (2) Carving Chisel # 2x (3) Far Sight # 2x (3) Primordial Wave # 2x (4) Prescience # 2x (4) Wildpaw Cavern # 2x (5) Bloodlust # 2x (5) Command of Neptulon # 2x (6) Tiny Toys # 1x (7) Lor'themar Theron # 1x (8) Blightblood Berserker # 2x (10) Goldshire Gnoll # 2x (10) Sea Giant # AAECAaoIAvigBe+iBQ7j9gPG+QPckgTblATgtQTGzgSF1ASi1ASq2QSv2QS12QS22QTy3QSGoQUA # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone Prescience will always give you at least a 2/3 with taunt, as long as you haven't already drawn all the minions in the deck. Replace Lor'Themar and Blightblood with any other minion at least 5 mana and you'll preserve that effect. The better list I saw had Glugg the Gulper and the Bru'kan hero card in place of those. I can't say it's awesome but it's fun screwing around with in casual. People don't seem to appreciate having their whole board full of minions transformed (DR Rogues especially will just bail)

It's the 4-ban Tavern Brawl again. Anyone remember that Rogue list from last time? I think it had Pogo Hoppers and something else nasty.

In a weird way, I like that Death Knight isn’t great… makes me feel cooler for playing it!

I did it with Pogo, Snip Snap, and two mech cost reducer mechs. My opponent got me down to 3 life with something that used direct face damage and Shadow of Demise if you got that.

Pogo, counterfeit coin, sinstone and secret passage worked well enough for me. They ban pogo, you do an almost infinite turn and slam down to bigass stealthed minions, they concede.

Yeah i did this. No bad ban for it and the best outcome is they ban pogo which feels at first glance the "correct" ban

I decided to try out that new mage list in the VS report. I wasn't planning on pushing for legend this month, but this deck hard carried me from D3. Felt good into just about everything (except miracle rogue). ### Ice burn # Class: Mage # Format: Standard # Year of the Hydra # # 2x (0) Flurry (Rank 1) # 2x (1) Arcane Wyrm # 2x (1) Irondeep Trogg # 2x (1) Shivering Sorceress # 2x (1) Suspicious Alchemist # 2x (2) Amplified Snowflurry # 1x (2) Astalor Bloodsworn # 1x (2) Bloodmage Thalnos # 2x (2) Crooked Cook # 2x (2) Frozen Touch # 2x (3) Arcsplitter # 2x (3) Frostweave Dungeoneer # 2x (4) Cold Case # 1x (4) Commander Sivara # 2x (4) School Teacher # 1x (5) Aegwynn, the Guardian # 2x (6) Deathborne # AAECAf0EBIvnA5egBKneBOKkBQ3U6gPS7AOfkgShkgThpASWtwTa0ATb3gT67ATd7QSCkwXFkwWrmAUA # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone

Enrage Warrior might be a better deck than anything the DK can build right now.

Eeepies posted:Enrage Warrior might be a better deck than anything the DK can build right now. Honestly enrage Warrior is perfectly fine, it’s a tiny bit weaker than the other aggro options but it’s still something you can climb ladder with. It’s just unpopular so nobody’s trying to refine it to give it that last percentage point or two to it’s winrate

Man the end of the Mighty-posesi elimination match was some crazy poo poo. Mighty was desperately trying to find his Purified Shard to before posesi found his Astalor in Ramp Druid in the final match of their elimination set, and both were just cycling through their decks like crazy, seemingly unable to find their wincon. Mighty finally finds his Shard, but is unable to play it since he had to draw into it... and Posesi topdecks Astalor on a 1-in-6 and slams down his entire combo to eliminate Mighty. Really that entire series was just a bunch of insane lucksacking for posesi.

Especially because Mighty could have won the game by just wirlpooling his own Astalor.

Right but a lot of terrible meta occurrences this rotation have been because of Brann. He never should have rotated back in and Team 5 willingly letting that happen kind of shows an inability to understand their own card game, which is concerning.

Of course being able to generate multiple copies of him is super broken, but that’s brann for you

https://twitter.com/SongbirdCora/status/1602354228856381440 I wouldn't be surprised if we add Astalor to the pile of cards that have been changed because of Brann, but it's going to be a long winter.

I could some kind of small nerf happening to Brann, maybe making him go to 4 mana and dropping him back to 3 when he rotates out.

Gonna be funny when Brann does rotate out and they gotta clean up the mess it makes with all these cards that got rebalanced around him
