I just had an insane match.


(Click to enlarge)

So I got out gruul on turn five. Then faceless manip'd it on turn six. And yet this match lasted like fifteen bloody turns. Why did my opponent not get immediately smooshed into mushy paste, you ask?

Because EVERY turn this guy pulled some sort of freeze card on me. He stalled me into oblivion. EVERY TURN. The turn pictured was the first time I actually got to attack for pretty much the whole game.

 

Every time I put a Gruul down, I feel the urge to scream at my opponent "Remember this card, motherfucker?!" while I picture them going "ohshitohshitohshitohshit" on the other side of the screen. Criminally underused card. It's just awesome to see it snowball when the opponent doesn't have an answer for it.

 

The few games I played were all done by turn 5. Most ended turn 1-2. Either I played Alex or my opponent did. Worst brawl yet, though it did help me to end my quests in record time.

 

The Grand Tournament out next month!!!

 

The amount of RNG this expansion is going to bring to the game is goddamn hilarious.

I expect much rage, and I expect the eSports aspect of it all will become even more of a clusterfuck where absolutely anyone can take high level wins.

Gonna be fun.

 

LOCK N LOAD BOYS.

*inb4 tempo/miracle hunter

 

Miracle hunter looks fun.

So does dragon control/ping mage.

 

Miracle hunters: Hunters that aren't face or midrange.

 

Ah, miracle hunters. Takes me back to the good old days of August last year.

 

Can someone post details for us lost souls without a pc?

Then there is also a new board and a thing about prepurchasing packages to get a card back. Also arena wins will have a random chance of being any of the new card packages instead of just GvG.

 

Blizzard should let us choose which pack that we get as a reward.

 

Really enjoyed this weeks brawl. I was mage and my opponent was warrior and went first and played majordormo. I played war golem and mirror entity. He played storm wind champion and attacked mine with MD. I fire balled it and he quit before I could get the kill from war golem and fire blast. Turn 2 kill FTW

 

Priest was way overpowered

 

Good.

Classes in brawls should be overpowered. It should be stupid shit that's unfair and hilarious.

 

Big minion turn 1.
Mind control your minion turn 2.

Concede

 

And we move on to the next game. Oh well.

It's supposed to be a quick, stupid, fun little match with broken rules. If you want tryhard only serious balanced mode, you have a whole ladder to climb.

 

With the announcement of the new xpac I wen't back and played this a bit. Mages are more op in arenas than ever. They should just give anyone who rolls a mage a 12 win reward so they can fuck off and not ruin the fun for the rest of us. That or just gives us class bans in arena.

Don't see this new inspire mechanic changing much. It's just too slow. With the speed the meta is right now your dead to patrons or some other agrro deck way before you can extract any value from your cards.

 

Well I do not really agree with this. I find shaman as OP as mage in arena.

Well, the meta. I have noticed that the patrons have pretty much stopped showing upp in ladder due to pretty much every deck having some counter to it. I do agree that the meta is to fast with all these aggro decks.

 

What a ironic Tavern Brawl free pack opening.

I opened up my second Harrison Jones. I guess that means GvG belongs in the museum!!

I also completed the achievement of Mrglglglgl! When I opened murloc warleader from the spectate a match quest last night.
