Tirion and Jaraxxus Sundays at 9pm on Hearth TV. One's a demonic loose cannon, the other a no nonsense, by the Light kinda guy. Now they have come together to pwn scrubs in ranked. Will the come to understand each other or will their differences prove to much? Find out in the pilot episode starting December 20th on Hearth TV.
I've never had Sneed's old Shredder spawn Jaraxxus... but it spawned Cenarius once. I had the Recombobulator, so I used that and got Jaraxxus. Then I put it into my hand with a Youthful. I won before I had the chance to play it though, which was sad (I was a warrior).
StoutKen I had my Iron Juggernaut Aldor Peacekeepered and hit reducing it to 1 health once. A 1/1 is not very useful, so I recombobulated it... into Cairne. It was, as you said, beautiful.
Hellbane224 That reminds me when i was warlock in arena with 2 voidcallers jaraxxus doomguard dread infernals and watchers. My opponent thoughtsteaed my Jaraxxus and later in the game shadow madnessed my void caller to kill one of my minion and summoned jaraxxus from his hand from voidcaller. Then I summoned jaraxxus my self to heal 8 health but then my opponent used Crazed alchemist for exact lethal.
Not sure if taking out pyro was right, I think it's primarily based on what the deck wants to be. Post GvG, the deck has changed significantly. From my perspective as someone who plays magic primarily and hearthstone on the side, but has been playing paladin control for a while, the deck has shifted from a true control deck, e.g blue white control to a more midrange deck, e.g the rock/jund/junk. The strategy prior was to use minor disruption, coupled with the best board wipes in the game to get into a position of stability, after which playing a lay on hands would win the long game or deploying a legend would win the game on the spot, or the first then the second. Now the strategy seems to be to do powerful things at all points of the game, replacing stuff like kodo with better guys to become a more proactive strategy, allowing the disruption already present in the previous deck like truesilver and peackeeper to be capitalized upon and get further ahead, as opposed to just stalling. In the former deck pyro combo is required, in the second it's significantly less powerful due to larger presence on board throughout the early and midgame, equality becomes much worse, but is still almost certainly required to deal with the biggest threats, e.g rag, giants, ysera, ancient of war, basically anything with 7 or more health. Whether the deck should have pyro seems to be entirely dependent on which of the two decks is overall more powerful, and right now this version is looking better, but time will tell.
That random Jaraxxus on the last game…lol. There needs to be a card with this text: Battlecry: Choose a minion and retrigger it's battlecry. The possible combos would make for some hilarious situations.
I like to imagine the Paladin's last thoughts were "Tirion Fordring? Lord Jaraxxus? Oh no! I'm back in that damn Colliseum!", and he died rather than face another run of TotC25.
Try using Mekgineer Thermaplug, it works pretty well for me when i have to trade in my Silver Hand Recruits. I lose my silver hand army and gain a leper gnome army, really fun! At least try it
Would need to use coin/equality, or have mech warper, plus have a pre-existing army to do that, over all, actually doing that is a bit out there, plenty of aggro that will keep the pressure on and will most likely trade evenly or favorably in that situation, lot of control decks tend to have aoe, plus thermaug is just so slow and pricey, when you CAN do it, it's great, doesn't mean you will be able to 100% of the time, it's just not consistent enough IMO
Thermaplug is that kinda strange card... Is it supposed to be in a Rush deck? Mid-range? Control? The Gnomes sure are agressive early game cards, but to have them conditionally appear only when you have a card that costs that much in place AND other creatures that were placed before and are to die this turn only... It's kinda too much "IF"s to build a deck around. But you can try it out, maybe it becomes nice :D
Hearthstone has fucked up rarity where mana cost pretty much scales with rarity. Lategame decks need bunches of legendaries because they're the only good lategame cards.
SleepyFoX I read your HAHAHA in Jaraxxus's voice when his laugh loops in his parody song. Probably cause Jaraxxus decided to show up and help his good pal Tirion out at the end of this video.
I wonder if Trump has ever thought of putting Hand of Protection or Blessing of Kings into his Paladin deck. The trades you can make with those things are insane. I once ran a recruit who has BoK, Blessing of Might, and HoP into a Rag. Opponent conceded a turn later The thing I like the most about that card is that it's pure tempo. I mean, sure, you can lose that 5/4 killing that Yeti, or you just won't, and have a dead minion, and also a strong minion of your own on the board instead + other plays for that turn. It really spices up Control Vs. Control by giving you a tempo advantage over other control matchups, and also helps a TON against things like Zoo or Cancer Huntard by allowing you to get fantastic trades vs. their Scars or Undertakers.
So what's the current verdict on Annoy-O-Tron? I remember Trump not thinking very highly of it but alot of mech decks seem to be running it and it seems to work out well for them more often than not.
I don't know if anyone else realised this but Blizzard has such great AI. In Hearthstone sometimes AI bm before letal ( saw it in a Naxxramas boss game) and in Heroes of the Storm, in some situations,the bots make me wonder if they aren't real players.
7:00 Why did he concede? He had at least three outs from the Shredder - Doomsayer, Frostwolf Grunt or Annoy-o-tron would save him. And his opponent was out of cards.
Why did he give up game two? With Sludge Belcher and trading into 1/1 and 3/2 Wind fury he'd still have 2hp/1hp. Sure, depending on the secret he'd need a great amount of luck and I understand that he most likely would've lost anyway, but that's what makes an r ng game so exciting. Crazy stuff does happen!
i cant remember for sure.. but in his GVG card reviews didnt he say antique healbot would suck? lol... i know he said in arena... but didnt he say for constructed as well? maybe im wrong.. whatevs
I'm confused, I thought antique healbot was considered by most (if not all) people to be garbage. I guess it kind of won trump a game, but what was the motive behind putting it in in the first place
Doomsayer* And It's pretty bad. Doomsayer either dies for free or clears very few stuff on an early turn, not to mention you are losing a card while not putting anything on the board yourself.
Yotam Shitrit Wrong. It's really quite good at slowing down aggressive decks, since it either heals you for 7, consumes a silence (worst case) or prevents their next turn while clearing their board.
Ted Wallace but then what do you do against the control match-ups? chow, lil'exorcist, and minibot are still useful against control, whereas doomsayer does little to nothing against them most games. just because a card is good against one popular strategy doesn't mean it's worth adding to your deck because it may make you weaker to others.
MABSGaming can u tell me why bgh is played? vs zoo he is useless too, they can just trade it off with a loothoarder. i think when u got a card that is really strong vs a few decks its kinda worth. u can just search for it vs the right deck and if u get unlucky and get it vs the wrong deck its just as if u are 1 card behind not that big of a deal.
Hey guys I was just wondering what your views on master of disguise are. I am currently working on a rogue deck that contains two master of disguise's and am wondering if you think I am wasting my time. (hopefully you don't)
He can use the hero ability every turn, so it gives him more flexibility if he wants to use the Hero ability and play the card. While minor, you just gotta go for maximum efficiency
idea for warlock/paladin card: Rapture kill all cards except demons or kill all demons ( only reason it could be a paladin card is that it is god themed)
thats mostly because rush decks are often very cheap to make. every time i take a budget control deck onto ladder i just lose horribly to both aggro and control
Hah, that's true. I guess I meant in the event that Bolvar becomes a more common card (not a huge chance of that, I realize) or if someone happens to know what deck you run.
In a Tournament maybe since some of it is mind games, but I highly doubt you could say oh he is looking at that one card its obviously Bolvar. It would be a guess, and most of the time it doesn't matter anyways.
mill decks aren't viable yet, especially with all the aggro running around. They can dump their hands faster then you can fill 'em, so you'd just help them out.
mrishouldstudy Mill decks will never truly be viable. I'd have to dig but I remember Blizz saying they don't want that as a theme in this game. So if it did get viable expect changes, like whenever someone does something for OTK
I cant understand why he mulligan consacration. His deck is full of late game and value cards. In the 2nd game he throw away consacration and got a 6 mana he never played. This meta is full of rush decks.
But heals don't help with board presence you are only keeping yourself from death for a turn at most. I guess you can stabilize with it but because you already have the board you would be unlikely to lose anyway.
***** it's a card to help stabilize in control decks. it's usually a one-of run in things like control mage, handlock, and paladin. in ARENA its absolute garbage. in constructed it's REALLY good.
I think it's too slow. I know he wants to play a controladin but this deck doesn't have the board clear of the old (no pyroequality) and doesn't reliably get a good enough opening to stay in the game. Not to mention the zombie chow being more of a hindrance than a blessing as it isn't quite as good against these quality gvg 2/3 and 3/4 early game options.
Ah yes, I remember all the paladin decks I was running into on ladder just a month ago. Yessir, I certainly hadn't forgotten what Uther's greeting sounded like at -all-
The expansion was only released on the 8th, not even half a month has gone by, people are still trying to find out what works and what doesn't XD happened with naxx, SO many people tried echoing ooze and it just didn't stick
The vast majority of players need time to collect the GvG cards: it isn't like the Curse of Naxxramas where the cards were initially available for free. Wait for a few months, then things should be quite different.
2:35 -I'm facing 11 damage.- but instead of equality Muster for battle he goes for the Slowest creature on earthmother! Maybe you were tired I don't know, but I didn't like some of your decisions in this VoD specially vs aggro
Please help fellow hearthstone players, having a lot of trouble trying to figure out what class is best for a budget deck, no legendary, very little epics
Mech rogue is probably the cheapest GvG deck. You can also try zoo warlock and aggro hunter. But if you're really going f2p my advice is that you get good in arena first. Otherwise it'll take months before you get even a semi decent card collection.
MyViolador I honestly wouldn't recommend that mage deck to anyone, no one ever uses it and its pretty bad in general. If you want a cheap mage deck try aggro mage.
Trump is a great player but he's not very forward thinking, next time you play against hunter or warlock even if it might not be zoo KEEP consecration.
Sometimes it's just that nice to kill off a Zoo/Rush Hunter's tempo. They keep on stacking damage on you, and when you finally get to use the Consacration, they'll just get rid of your remaining health with weapons/spells instead. I for once don't blame him consacrating early on those 3 minions :)
Nils Ververs Lübke Trouble is, people would play Zoo-like aggro decks all the time in a "lightning round" mode. It would be nice, but... Eh, people would just try to minimise the downside. Also, Trump takes so long because he tries his best not to overlook potential plays so when he goes into tournaments and such, he will be able to see things from all possible angles. Sometimes he does leave it just too long, but most of the time, his considerations work out.
This is why I play so much casual mode. I just had an epic win with Malygos Miracle against Handlock. I had a 6 damage blade flurry which was literally just enough damage to wipe his board, then when he played Jaraxxus I had a Gadgetzan on the board with two sinister strikes, cold blood and a dagger hit for lethal. Against an aggro deck I would have been dead by turn 5, and there is so much aggro on the ladder right now. HS isn't so much pay-to-win since the zoo stuff is fairly cheap. But for me it is pay-to-have-fun because I love playing control decks with a lot of legendaries for those epic late-game showdowns.
Rygel XVI Playing games while also raking in the $$$ is pretty freakin' manly, not to mention convenient. Although, yeah, taking in-game circumstances seriously is pretty stupid.
