(Hearthstone) Double The Lyras, Double The Packs 

I can't tell you how much I miss the old control warrior Elise matchups for this exact reason. It's a game of chess: who can gain the most armor efficiently while keeping some pressure and managing resources

Nicholas Curcuru I think you mean who draws Justicar first and gets lucky with rng.

And yet, it's probably something that would never be said in a control matchup that they were clearly losing and/or had no chance to come back...

This is exactly why I, as a player, can't bring myself to play aggro decks. I understand why other people play them, or even favor them but they go against my personal nature. When I play, I want to see cool combos, like super high value Lyra turns, I want to play as many cards as possible. I don't want to claw for every inch on the board hoping to just survive.

Iherrebout Looks like someone miss the old control warrior match up post alex nerf like me before rngfiesta of Justi and Elise meaning the greedy built wouldn't have the upper hand anymore. I salute you sir.

Rlancs bigger than the average clown fiesta in hearthstone usually probably xD

Neither of whom I am all that inclined to "kneel" for...well- (contemplates Soggoth)

Them tentacles right?

MoonPriest 9 health, pretty thicc

+ Moonpriest I'd bend over for Soggoth.

Clément SIRE He probably could, he is B.M Kibler

Me too, although I think whoever controls our universe is also trolling everyone in it XD

Underrated comment

Hydrolosus?

Kazamakus?

"I can fly because turtles like water". An unreasonable reason. The statement is logical.

nice ref bro

quest rogue is pretty fun. not sure why people don't like it. It is not even good.

People don't like it because most decks can't interact with it. If the opposing rogue has a good opening, you just lose, and it's a common sight on the ladder. It's just annoying to play against.

+HiddenWen Thanks!

Meteorino Kripperino kkkkkkkk,kl

Make a better Hunter Deck ;)

Ábel Hodász you could make a hunter deck yourself, they're super cheap and if you don't run rat packs you could get away with running 0 epics or legendaries

you could use the 3/3 wolf that spawns spiders instead of a rat pack.

mulligan for your cheap minions/removal (cleric, potion, pain, etc.). Hunter is pretty easy to beat with this deck

Easy with control priest.

but that's just a pile of stats, unlike 8 with tirion/ alikir

The chance of getting a tirion is lower than the chance of say, getting deathwing, and the worst 8 drops are much worse that the worst 10 drops. Granted there still is the heropwer which offers flexiblity, but in the most technical sense 10 is the best (lul 9)

C'thun, N'zoth, Yogg and Kun are horrifically bad outcomes and that's nearly half of your possibilities. If you feel like gambling then go for 10s but you're going to have better outcomes on average by going for 8, consistency is more important than occasionally rolling extremely well.

I guess, but if you don't need to hero power on a turn, for instance, in arena, going for 10 has overall statwise best rewards

Yeah, but as Damien points out there is more to it than stats. 8 has gromm, al'akir, ironbark, charged devilsaur, tirion, ragnaros and giant sand worm which are all better than just getting a bigger body in most instances. Then most of the bland outcomes are about as good practically speaking as the 10-drops, the difference between a 7/8 and 10/10 is rarely game defining. And for the three bad outcomes (which again is 3 out of 16 rather than 10) you get another chance at taunt, which can be very helpful, anomalous, which is an 8/6 and can occasionally even be a good outcome and a 5/4 turtle which looks unreasonably bad until you compare it to C'thun. So it's not like you're "wrong" for going with a different number but most people go for 8 for very good reasons, you're statistically more likely to get a better outcome in most conventional situations. That said, sometimes you will just want the best possible chance at a 12/12 and knowing when to go for that is a legitimate skill-testing aspect of the card. At the end of the day it's most important to know why you're playing it for a certain mana cost rather than just memorizing "the best" play and always doing that.

+apocalyplant I don't know if I'd play the deck without Elise and Free From Amber. I've tried a version that cuts Medivh for Harrison, and Geode for Golakka Crawler

Tnks, I am no where near getting Medivh but I can disenchant for Elise

I don't know any of the lore but I'd always assumed it was more like an arcane construct the kabal produced than a naturally occurring thing.

"Replace your starting hero power with a better one". "Die, insect" isn't a starting hero power unfortunately =/

fiddlesticksop FailFish "YOUR MINIONS COST 2 MORE"

fiddlesticksop Also 2 mana 2/3 1 drop? Wut.

Nice to know you're playing quest rogue

+Nikita Yudin I tried it out. my favorite deck is elemental evolve shaman atm.

... he's also the youngest?

Silverhawk100 it's a reference to the charity run video he did

Fair enough. :-P
