Previous thread:

Normal tournaments are so boring after batstone

So I'm done with rank5 and am thinking about meming it up in wild. I could actually finish my way to golden rogue there.

What would a burgle rogue looks like on wild?
Or is there any cool rogue decks to do beside miracle?

why doesn't blizzard just balance the game on a weekly/monthly basis?

Kill all shamans

Too confusing etc.

because:
- That would be confusing for new players (blizz hate to change cards cause they say that "players returning to play will not understand why their cards changed" or some shit like that)
- Most likely: Not worth the effort

>four fucking mill druids in a row
Fucking hell, what deck counters these assholes in the brawl?

Lazy. Fucking. Hipsters.

Seriously, if you've ever seen how advertising creatives 'work', it's the exact same thing. They work for maybe 60 days a year at the max (being generous), and spend the rest of their time dicking around doing nothing.

Anyfin paladin.

Malchazar, excavated evil and/or holy nova and or any other card.

well that took fucking forever

who /goldengul'dan/ here

...

Excavated costs way too much to counter them, same with most aoes honestly.
Malchazar works decently enough, but naturalize still kills literally anything you play.

I don't know user, usually I'd be dead to fatigue by turn 6.

You made a very similar post in the last thread. However to be fair it seems like you pulled that entirely out of your ass. the team has to code and test each card in a ton of different situations. Maybe brode works 60 days a year but saying that of the entire team is pretty stupid.

Malch imp soul fire silverware golem. Just hit face and pray to get lucky

Rogue:
1. Preparation, Sinister Strike, Eviscerate
2. Young Dragonhawk, Conceal, Cold Blood

Hunter:
1. Mechwarper, Metaltooth Leaper, Annoy-o-Tron

Mech hunter
You fill the board on turn 2 with coin or turn 3, while emptying your hand. If they clear, you do the same next turn since they drew you a full hand by doing so

this kills the shaman

literally 100% winrate against aggro/midrange shaman

No, they really do work that much. I know their type at a very personal and professional level and they've got the shittiest work ethic while getting paid exorbitant amounts for it. Only difference is, the half-assing is obvious and well scrutinized on the HS devs' end.

upgrade, southsea, heroic strike

Thanks guys, all good suggestions

Reposting in hopes of getting some advice. What would you do?
I just traded creeper on spider, kings secretkeeper and played murloc.

>people getting 3+ legendaries from the bundle

okay, is everybody being full of shit

Swashburgler + prep + plus beneath the grounds hard counters mill Druid due to you filling your opponents deck with 4/4 nerubs that fill the board with 4/4 nerubs.

>mill Druids never know what hit em

POST
SPICY
BRAWL
DICKS

So you're saying you know because you've met people you think are similar? You're making a massive generalization you don't know anything about them.
Is every team member a hipster?

Oh, I always thought he was a Tauren clumsily riding on a ram, not a Dwarf. Huh.

Holy fuck, how cheap is the production budget for this event?

WE E-SPORTS NOW, RIGHT GUYS?

Doesn't that lose horribly to mill druid?

>giving your opponent easy cards to naturalize
>filling your hand with nonsense cards to gets your preps and beneath the grounds discarded easier

I've mowed down this deck multiple times, it's a joke

Not every one of them, but most are definitely of this caliber judging by the work they have been putting out. It's very clear now with how shitty the game has been handled since the start of the year.

Dunno why you're taking so much offense at this assessment, unless you fall into this category in your own career path of course.

i got 2 from packs + the class legendary

...

got a tony i already had as the class legendary, a tirion i already had in my first pack and a golden cenarius i didnt have. Wish my tirion copy was golden and cenarius was vanilla but eh.

I have no idea what this is.

Yes but the realization that people have when you pull off the combo is priceless

Druid
Innervate / Claw / Feral Rage

Use Claw to clear out the murlocs, and only target face as a last resort.
You have to be extremely unlucky to lose against Mill with these cards.

What?

>play Yogg because I'm dead on board
>Yogg casts vanish
>able to play Reno again next turn
>win because Yogg
Praise Yogg

Immune to Enemy and Friendly targeted effects I assume

It can't be affected by spells or effects that target friendly or enemy minions.

...

The only one I have it VanCleef and I got him.

>Annoy-o-Tron
Wouldn't Gorillabot work better?

W-what happens if you play both?

>would have been happy getting tirion, grommash, van cleef, antonidas, jaraxxus, or cenarius
>get prophet velen
>pity timer ends on my last pack
>duplicate rag

The way you lose is if you dont draw enough mechwarpers to dump your hand.

Gorillabot doesnt help with that, annoyotron does.

Also you need 4 mechwarpers to dump your hand with gorillabot, but only 3 with other mechs.

Dont fall for the gorillabot meme.
You dont need to generate cards.

The board implodes as both heroes are sucked into a black hole. You then unlock the secret board, Space, and winning 500 games on it unlocks the secret legendary.

I guess you're right.
Also Annoy-o-Tron gets exponentially more annoying with every Metaltooth that gets summoned.

That would require all the money that would be needed to reprint and ship out all the card changes

Oh wait they never take advantage of a digital format never updating and balancing the game

Annoyotron also survives circle heal or elemental destruction shenanigans, the previous weakness of mech decks.

Truly the masterrace.

Over how many games?

That's the beauty of swashburgler. 95% of Druids burn their naturalizes on this 1/1 that served its purpose. And you underestimate how effective cards like healing touch and Druid of the claw, moon glade portal are.

I'll trade you for that rag

Wait, does Moonglade Portal give you a golden minion if your hero is golden?

FREE GOLDS?

obviously you've never worked in a soft dev environment

guess what, the designers and developers aren't testing the interactions; that's what QA is for.

pretty sure it gives a golden minion if you have a golden moonglade portal. i haven't tested it myself though.

WTT my Milhouse Manastorm for Sylvanas

I'd assume it does, most things like that do.
Golden Mindgames gives a golden minion for example, even though it's not your minion but your opponent's.

I only got another tirion. These assholes are hogging all the luck.

I think a better example would be like a regular Implosion targeting a golden minion and giving you golden imps.

After my welcome pack.

Got Vancleef for my class legendary.

I guess I'll take it!

>playing control shaman
>2 healing waves
>4 board clears
>never draw them against aggro
Whats the point

>Does not count as belonging to either player
>Stays on the same side of the board at all times and obeys all of that player's commands

Great design.

>all tournament players ban shaman
>only good aggro deck gone
>nothing can stop the combo decks now
gg

Fun and interactive

We have loatheb! Oh wait people didn't like the one card in this game that could be used to disrupt and counter your opponents turn meaning they'll never make another because it's unfun

>Undercity Huckster vs Mage
>Babbling book
>2 pyros and a frostbolt

Dominance indeed. Easy 100g.

I honestly dont know whats worse anymore.

Matches beeing decided by who draws his combo pieces faster, or matches beeing decided by who went first and had a better curve.

Curvestone is so retarded but every deck delaying the game is just 80% cycle and 5-6 cards that end the game once they hit them.

Seems regular portal gives golden card if your hero is gold

Did you watch that Fire bat tournament? Probably the only way to make the game fun again.

Kek, I meant cabalist's tome, not babbling book.

>Buy welcome bundle on iPad.

I GAVE TEAM 5 MONEY FOR THIS FUCKING SHIT TO HAPPEN. CAN'T EVEN FARM TAVERN BRAWL FOR 100G. HOW INCOMPETENT CAN A DEV TEAM BE.

>5 money

Nice game Blizzard.
Closing the game and reopening it does nothing.
Stuck in this shit for well over 5 minutes.

Kek

open it in a different server (eu/na/asia)

happened to me once its how i fixed it

Try closing it and ending a process called "Agent."

It fixed itself after 10 minutes and I got a free win.
But now I have a different problem.
When I win a game I don't get the gold. It says I reached the daily gold limit, which isn't true. I'm 30 gold away from the gold limit.

>tfw brode cucks you out of your gold
Nice f2p game blizzard

whats the gold limit
i dont play this game enough to know.

With Mech hunter even faster.
Most people give up on turn 2 or 3. You win most games except for mirror, where the one with coin wins.

3 wins = 10 gold
max of 100 gold = 30 wins

with this brawl you can get 30 wins in a about 2 hours

>Lead designer's fault for tech team issue

There you go again, priestfag.

Ah, I don't feel like cancering up druid mill / mech for 3 hours.

Sorcerer's Apprentice, Ice Lance, Frostbolt.

>Until you face Innervate Barnes Rag or Innervate Loatheb Naturalize

>issue
>implying it isn't a feature

anyfin shaman shits all over mech hunter

I dont know who the fuck priestfag is, I just blame brode for everything that goes wrong.

>anyfin

i'm playing an arena run with snowchugger right now
feel pretty deviish desu

From my experience, the one with the coin wins if both player have a good hand.

>playing wild
>stuck in ranks 10-9 for the past 3 days, after about 50 games. Spot on 50% win rate
>decide to change up my deck slightly for more mid-range. "this won't be good against control but it'll help in the matchups I've been playing"
>first game after changes made, control priest - lose horribly, thanks blizz
>whatever, keep playing
>decide to play zoo for easy ranks
>first game as zoo is against freeze mage, the worst matchup. LITERALLY have not seen a single freeze mage in past 50+ games

How the fuck is matchmaking not rigged in this game. I play 50 games, not see the deck, then make one change and suddenly the hard counter pops up, in a meta that is completely unfavoured for it. What in the fuck is this

That's what you get, zoo shitter

>Control warlock
I know it's a joke, but that actually makes me very mad.

People who play this deck likely think this is true; that it is, in fact, "control", and not just face SMOrc.

>go to hearthcards dot net
>go to gallery queue
>bring something back

>reno hatson
>parody of reno jackson
>not wearing a hat
>hatson
>hats on
>discovers a hat
>so he can put a hat on

deep shit

>play control, getting fucked by aggro
>had enough of this shit, decide to make a freeze mage and queue with it
>3 control warriors in a row (same guy twice though)
>check the match history, not a single control warrior in last 30 games before that

Fuck off.

I have created the best deck in the game again
