How a Common Card Broke Hearthstone? 

Remember those adventure bosses that used to run awful cards but still rolled you because they started with 3 mana? This is them now

Roffle playing standard (blood DK) Rarran playng wild (twig druid) What a year!

turns out having 10 mana on turn 4 is actually quite good.

The Azalina play is unironically one of the most big brained plays I ever seen on current hs

looking forward to the nerf: instrument tech "your weapons have +1 attack"

It's really a tragedy that Ogre isnt a creature type. The amalgams could have discovered more ogres.

25th Baam is the main character from the tower of god webtoon 🥴

Druid mains be like "Dude it's not that broken"

You have to submit that Griftah clip to Trolden, that's absolute peak hs right there. The type of content I watch HS for.

That Griftah play was actually incredible. It's almost as incredible as the Disguised Toast Yogg Mechathun Wombo Combo you recently reviewed. It was very clear that you didn't actually realize Azalina was gonna mega-screw him until after you picked it and that's the only thing that makes it less incredible than the Toast called shot on Cataclysm.

It's actually pretty funny how the instrument tech is kind of useless in a way because I have never in my life seen any druid not Slam twig Turn 4 into turn 5 guff. Kind of the reason why wild is literally unplayable. "Hey pretty cool deck you got there, oh it doesn't kill your opponent by turn 6? Too bad, he now has 200 Armor and 20 mana while you have 7. GG, nice attempt."

15:32 Yeah man, you're missing a great anime called "The Tower Of God". Apart from that, what a HUGE brain play it was to go for the Azalina, holy moly.

"Just you wait until I have 20 mana!" ~Rarran Manastorm

Man, when DOESN'T druid break the game at this point? And if it's not druid, it's warlock.

The fact that a druid turns up in TIER S from year to year cannot be an accident

This is reminding me of "5x win condition druid". Good times.

15:31 the 25th baam is the name of the MC from the popular comic/anime "Tower of God"

He found the only way to have fun in wild. Griftah play was legendary.

He didn’t get the tower of god reference :(

So…total HS noob here but can someone explain exactly how the Griftah play worked? I kinda felt lost 💀

Blizzard Not testing anything The most iconic duo in hearthstone

balls

15:30 tower of god reference 😩

Well, they still haven't fixed that bug where hearing neptulon's sound effect causes my fingers to press alt f4. It's started to spread recently. Now it happens against turn 3 druid or rogue otk, too.

15:31 a fellow Tower Of God enjoyer.

instrument tech also triggers kingsbane even more, which is the last thing they needed i haven't even seen too many twigs in high diamond, just a lot of kingsbane and big priest, and with the amount of draw kingsbane has its impossible not to hit either the weapon or the weapon draw

The worst thing about this is now every other deck is completely unviable apart from hyper aggro.

Two Innervates, one Jade Blossom, one Wild Growth, one Nourish, the guy's got a full fucking hand, zero drawback, he is SIX mana ahead of me.

I was reading tower of god while this video played and I almost closed out of the video when he questioned the person with the name “The25thBaam”

15:05 I was more shocked to see that he was a real player to be honest

the majority of druids in wild that i see don’t even use the weapon and just draw their entire deck using gadgzetan auctioneer and some otk combination.

Rarran didnt tell everyone that he was actually playing a meta deck the entire time

if anyone here is interested in actually playing this deck, you should wait until you draw your first weapon before you play the instrument tech

Griftah actually winning a game.

When twig came out i went to a fireside gathering where every other player was bashing it on how Bad it was, and si was like WTF this card Will break wild in the future once it has a bigger card pool, well...

That Griftah game is literally your average WowHobbs game. That's why he's so fun to watch

I beat every single druid deck by playing Shudderwock deck & adding the Kobold that steals weapons.

"The 25th Baam" is the name of the protagonist in "Tower of God" a long running korean webtoon

Honestly, the biggest problem with wild druid isn’t even Guff, it’s always been the Twig. I don’t understand why that isn’t changed or banned yet. It was clear it was going to break wild at some point, especially after they added the sphere.

the 25th Baam is a real one. That is an insane reference

The 25th Baam is a tower of god reference (nerd emoji)

This guy doesn’t know who the 25th bam is???? Sorry to this exceptional gamer. Should have read Tower of God

actually a good old king's bane can absolutly obliterate that drood stuff

Honestly in wild I was destroying druids with my evolve shaman, even after they get to 20 mana on turn 5. I think that's because poison seeds doesn't really hurt me, I just evolve the treants into something good again :D

Me who's never played Hearthstone before watching game 1: I don't see how ramping from 7 to 10 mana let's you pop off. Mana pool: 10/17 ...Oh.

As someone who attempted to ride this wave, the deck is considerably less powerful when you don't draw Guff every game.

I don’t even play Hearthstone, however, this strat was so OP I felt inclined to watch

Rarran finally felt what is like to play Yugioh in Heartstone!

Rarran singlehandedly resparked my interest in hearthstone with his content, I finally started playing again after quitting a few years ago

bro playing yugioh when the opponent playing hearthstone

So sad learning Rarran hasn't read Tower of God

The griftah giving azalina was absolutely nuts mechathun tech

Damn.. I haven't played HS for years.. I used to run ramp druid because it wasn't super consistent or great, but when it worked it was funny.. Now it became a potential instant concede-type deck...

warrior: had weapon draw for years neutrals get weapon draw: game meta completely destroyed

Keep up the good work Rarran

The moment I saw the weapon card draw I knew something was going to break hearthstone.

16:16 ahh the mario kart lick

i won't be surprised if they actually gut the twig and do the same nerf they did to guff, which means it will only give empty mana crystals instead of full

Griftah OP

I mean. Who could have seen this coming.. except everybody who has thought about hearthstone weapons once.

I expected Rarran to do an auto-complete deck to test the tweet theory.

they need to make twig a 1/4 or have it still be a 1/5 and make it say "deathrattle: if this used all its durability gain 10 mana crystals" makes it weak to weapon destruction and lets u not replace it and gain the mana like u can do now and its fine and still strong just not broken

Dude the deck was so five head it ran Wizbang as tech for Patchwork

the only one chance how to beat this deck when you have loatheb on turn 5. when you lucky enough you might have 20% they will concede. ive beat these deck 4 out of 10 times when I got loatheb on turn 5

It's funny how the random cards you added was gadgetzan and jade idols lmao

If ya'l haven't seen it, MartianBuu also did this type of video, where every win made him change his win condition to something worse And it Gets *silly* Ty for your standard-biased view of this too, Rarran ❤

It's funny how close the instrument tech is to MTG's stoneforge mystic. 2 mana for a 1/2 that finds a weapon. At least instrument tech doesn't have an ability to play any weapon in your hand for 2 mana at any time.

When would you cover the new LOR cards w/ Snnuy or Grapplr? Riot change their Expansion to every 3 months instead of 2.

I got rolled by this deck so many times trying to climb out of gold last night.

No more 10 mana crystals… just refresh only

Didn't expect to see a tower of God reference in a rarran video

If the aim is only to hit both weapons, wouldn't you maybe be better by not playing the 1st 2-drop (wait to get 1 other out before) ? Then you have 3 outs you can draw instead of 2.

i have no idea what is happening but my mtg heart rejoices at seeing stupid mana combo letting you do any dumb shit you want to

I think it would be fixed if the neutral weapon could not be equipped to trigger the death rattle of the twig. Like it just said “can’t play if you are already equipped” twig always taking 4 rounds to trigger makes it far more balanced. Still a problem if they ever release new neutral weapons tho.

OK tbf druid wasn't good in wild before this. It wasn't in the top half of classes which also shows how broken the tech is

Regarding the 25th Baam. It is a reference to the main character of a certain (really good) korean webcomic called The Tower of God.

Is not really just the twig either. Even without twig , wild druid has just hit a critical mass of good cards where a good curve of ramp cards leads to game breakingly good draw power . Things like the twig combo simply lets them get the ramp off a few turns earlier CONSISTENTLY. This is really a case of a neutral weapon breaking wild. More than instrument tech. Even without both twig and sphere shenanigans. Druid still consistently ramps to either celestial alignment or gets to 10+ mana by like turn 6-8 . at which point you simply win by playing any of the 10000 win cons druid can play like : mill , mill + tog , mill + tog + jailer + bolf , linecracker , mechathun , jade auctioneer into a 50 spell yogg etc... Easiest nerf is probably ban guff tbh as bizarre as it sounds. That way you have to play either innervate + aviana kun , celestial alignment and just worse cards to be able to play pass 10 mana in 1 turn. (Well i guess floop is also pretty good)

Thank god Druid can't create such a crazy mana difference in Standard... haha... haha...

The 25th Baam is from a webtoon turned anime called Tower of God, i havent watched the anime but i can tell you the webtoon is extremely good and i recommend!

I sincerely and genuinely hope that they nerf Druid so hard that it makes pre-Gadgetzan Priest look like release Demon Hunter. I am so fucking tired of that piece of shit class. *PLEASE, CAN WE DESTROY DRUID ALREADY?!*

What do You think to fix twig a bit, add a rule like "when You have this weapon equiped, You can not play/equip other weapon"?

Druid is literally the reason no one can play anything but hyper aggro or druid in this game

Druid is so disgusting that i never wanna play it

The 25th Baam is a refference to the Tower of God manwha series and anime

No way Rarran went up against Jue Viole Grace and managed to win

Kinda similar to Martianbuu’s vid. Also, Wild isn’t exactly a “broken format”

Can someone please understand that Hearthstone is not pronounced Heart-stone. It is Hearth-stone as in the stone at the base of a fireplace, the Hearth.

The clear counter strategy is to play thief rogue, mixtape into twig, and hero power to break it. Because if you can't beat them, join them.

So this makes Druid the cheapest Broken deck in Hearthstone.

If a new Expansion Just one time doesn't Break the Game I would be sooo Happy

14:00 I dont understand this "greatest play", someone please explain

I recently returned to hearthstone to play some battlegrounds and ranked wild. Currently trying to climb asap with a mech mage deck. And everytime i encounter one of them motherfucking druids i lose. Its okay, its just a deck and so on. But it gets really annoying if i encounter like 3-4 in a row

When Rarran doesnt recognize the tower of god reference

The 25th bam is a character from tower of god, a popular webnovel and anime :)

u never run out of fuel in HS like lol almost every card in hs has too much value

rarran 25th baam is the name of a character in a webtoon called tower of god

how about we introduce "limited inclusion" like if you add this certain card you can't add this card or vice versa

make it 5 mana and increase the stats, just to make it so that Druid can't get 10 mana until their opponent has 6 or 7 instead of 4

Look how this ape doesn’t trade with his invincible alex

The dude with the name "The25thBaam" is a reference to a webtoon/anime called Tower of God
