    I have it. Control pally is a really good idea actually, I'm going to go look that up.

    N'Zoth seems to pop up in a look of decks really, I think I'll craft him.

    Edit: What's the go to website for finding decklists etc? I've been going to hearthpwn.

    He already has Tirion.

    Not sure about Sylvanas and Cairne, to be fair.

    Playing mainly Priest, Paladin, Mage and Shaman, not really the other classes. Is LoE still worth getting? Or rather, which expansion is best for those classes.

    I have a pathological hatred for buying Adventures, but I bit the bullet and bought LoE. Paladin you get Keeper of Uldaman, which is an amazing card. Shaman you get tunnel trogg, which is just as good in other ways.

    I'd say get it.

    You get Entomb for priest with LoE.

    It's by far the best adventure, and will be around for a while.

    You also get Ethereal Conjurer and Forgotten Torch for Mage, and Jeweled Scarab / Elise / Reno. It's just a plain good adventure.

    So, I was never really into Hearthstone, but I wanted to play it on my tablet, which has a pathetic 512MB RAM(It was cheap) so the shop app doesn't run, or it runs with 0,5 fps. Is there a version that needs less resources?

    Hearthstone is kind of notorious for turning mobile devices into magma and being a horrible hog of resources.

    That is what I got from forums, articles and from my own experiences. But I had hope that the good people of DLP have something for me. It seems not, so I shall hope for it, like for Half Life 3 and KotOR 3.

    This brawl is fun as hell.

    So my original thought worked out decently, going for Upgrade + Shield Block.

    Turns out I can out-armor Deathwing+Innervate and Chromaggus + Innervate.

    Two stupidly strong strategies I ran into -

    Rogue: Mechwarper + Iron sensei.
    Warrior: Shieldbearer (First seeing it: Lolwut?) + Bolster (Oh fuck.)

    Really enjoyed this weeks tavern brawl, got a win with each class in under an hour. Some really nice combos out there.
    Mage: Fireball, ice block, or mana wyrm frost bolt.
    Druid: innervate coldlight oracle
    Paladin: Shielded minibot, coghammer
    Shaman: Bilefin Tidehunter, evolve.

    Hunter is the grossest thing in this brawl possibly.

    Mechwarper + Metaltooth Leaper.

    Especially if you go second, it's utterly revolting (and amazing).

    Druid with Coldlight Oracle + Naturaize is great vs. non-spell decks, too.

    Warrior with Armorsmith and Whirlwind is kinda nice against some classes. Brought a priest to fatigue before he gave up facing 30hp and 56 armor.

    Innervate + Yogg is hilarious.

    It's really boring to play against. I think the only reliable counter is to hope they play badly and fill up the board and empty their hand, whilst you have a 3dmg boardwipe on turn 4.

    Other fun decks I've seen being played are:

    Innervate + Cold Light Oracle. It's probably not as good overall as Cold Light and Naturalize, but this combo means that if you get lucky you can mill them out on turn one and they'll have no response.

    I'm not sure how fun this will be to play in a couple of days though - can see everyone converging onto the more annoying decks (Mechwarper plus almost anything).

    Some other decks I've seen played:

    Southsea Deckhand / Tinker's.
    Win Axe / Upgrade
    N'Zoth's First Mate / Heroic Strike
    Mechwarper / Arcane Nullifier
    Mad Scientist / ?? (guy gave up when I flooded the board with Gorillabots).
    Ice Block / Fireball
    Hobgoblin / Wisp
    Shieldbearer / Bolster

    Ice Block + Lava Giant is pretty OP.

    Anything with Mechwarper is disgusting. Hunter combo can win by turn 3, essentially turn 2 if coin. Rogue might need an extra turn. Rest of the classes need gorillabot and thus might require an extra turn or maybe two, but it's still disgusting and very easy to win with.

    Just saw a mage with Frostbolt/Ice Lance. I would have died on turn 5 if I was not playing priest.
