Is Excavate Broken? 

This was recorded before the warlock excavate change, hope you still enjoy the video!

DK excavate is pretty good, just make sure Reska isn't the main thing you want to summon. Primus is your main res target

The death night excavate reward, isn’t the main wind condition, I believe that it instead pairs with plagues extremely nicely, and having that extra little push with the excavator stuff getting really good value and tempo swings, and as well as you can get a lot of healing if you revive reska or primus because ultimately plagues can play for tempo, but they can also play the long game as well

I think the reason people keep playing league is because the highs feel really good, getting a good team and everyone working together and steamrolling or facing another team that works together is awesome, it's just that there are also many lows where everyone just screams at each other

18:10 I agree that the Rat has seemed rather weak in my Excavate DK games so far- I've had a lot of success running UUF with the Plague package, but a big part of that is often using Rat to resummon The Primus, rather than other big minions. Using two Primus to get extra max life can get you out of range of Warlock/Mage/Paladin burst, not to mention the card generation. Plus, when it's reborn, the abilities reset- I've gotten two Blood Rune activations off one Rat before in a game.

Great video as always! Music was a bit loud for my taste but it didn’t seriously hamper my enjoyment

with maestra rogue, if you pretend to be warlock, with the right hand (aka just a bunch of hand-back cards) you can easily OTK with the snake

10:13 Lethal was there if he bounced the elemental that gives +4 attack instead of spending it on Infinitize. Attack w/ everything, double arcane shot, then +4 since Rarran-ranch has def cast 5+ spells this game.

Excavate s such a cool keyword and so fun that I've climbed to diamond exclusively with excavate burgle rogue. And i did not want to kms the entire time

absolutely love your content man, you are the best

On the 2nd Day of Cringemas, Rarran said to me 2 KEKWs And a Pogger in a pogging tree

It Is always a good day when Rarran uploads

Chat: You look tilted Rarran: Im not tilted Also Rarran "EAT SHIT" *making eating noises*

Tips on how to get dust easily?

12:40 hahaha can confirm word for word it is like that ALWAYS 😂😂

i love watching your videos. i came across you because you rated magic cards. you even got me back into hearthstone. ouch my wallet

dont forget you can play azerite ox with Brann, its one of reno warriors win conditions

How do you feel about the focus on Mobile Computing for your degree? I'm working on finding a focus for mine. Love the vids Rarran

"Take two and call me mourning" -prof putricide Would of been 10/10

The maestra getting you a non-rogue excavate! You have to clip that as a youtube short!!!!!!

When did the deck tracker joke first happen?

I feel like they are going to make the rest of the classes have a legendary in the mini set I wonder what they would be tho

As a good reference point, if it doesn’t dominates wild 1-2 days after release, it’s not broken. Aka, Switcheroo, Questlines or the warlock location. I can’t recall any excavate deck I’ve seen so far.

description has a typo, says "In Showdown in the badlans" should say In Showdown in the badlands

very good video I love your videos

Like this was 5 months ago, I am surprised by these games. How are they not done by turn 4?

3:04 Hold on, did my guy really say a hawk would beat an ox in a fight irl? Oxen are between 1,500 and 3,000 pounds, while an average hawk is between 1 and 4. Can I have some of what Mr Streamer is smoking?

About the Tattoo, my senior page in highschool was a hearthstone frame around my picture. I am now dug in. If I ever quit HS it's an eternal reminder I literally put myself in that box.

Hey @Rarran did you try sludge warlock? Can it be better now?

i just got that it was different rarities

Do deck trackers cost money now?

One thing that make me feels that the Azer Scorpion is weak because the spells it gives are random and straight up garbage. Not to mention your hand count problems, which if you are not playing miracle rogue with locations or wishing well rogue, you will always 'my hand is full'. One thing that can be done to buff it is by giving the random spells all cost 5 or above with 8x excavate turning them 0, or making it same but it proc after 6x excavate. What do you guys think?

Tour guide changed everything

Big Daddy Rarran videos never fail to make us edge, looking good today!

Omg Rarran Try bouncing back an Azurite Snake as Rogue that you got while being disguised ad Warlock

Blizzard needs to add one per game to certain cards. In terms of excavate twice should apply if they can’t code the game to recognize the first 4th versus second

i've heard you say deck trackers are " too expensive " and since it is literally a free software i assume you did not mean it in that regard. Could you explain please?

"I didn't know ranked legend could go this low... That's because you didn't get passed silver." That was such a good comeback and it came immediately.

Sitting and explaining your line of thought to the chat is basically bm towards the opponent

Weird thing to get stuck on but Hawks are tiny, they aren't taking out an Ox easily.

Bump for engagement because you deserve it

0:46 Watching and listening to friends and family play LoL, i know in my heart league is to blame

Ive never lost against the few times i faced excavate warrior lol

Leagues Unironically a fun game honestly, I play it to enjoy it

I'm 13 months sober from League of Legends

Absolutely yes

I am broken inside

pog!

I’m so early. God I love my humble king

banger

Blizzard gave me 40 standard packs 40 titan packs and 4 ketchup packs. Opened em all played one game and uninstalled. The game doesnt feel like it used to back when the first 3 expansions were out

@Rarran did you notice in the mage game against the paladin, when you objected the mirage minion, the paladin lost the mirage card entirely. You cucked him of his payoff 😂

Does is it even matter, if you are dead turn 7 vs Paladin?

I really wish Excavate Warrior was better, its such a fun controlling deck, but it just ends up being too slow in the current meta and can get run over quite easily

I would watch you play other games than Hearthstone, you are entertaining by default (your Darkest Dungeon run was really enjoyable for example).

Yes

Too expensive? There's a free deck tracker.

The music was kind loud compared to your voice

Hawk would beat an ox huh... thats an "unique" take

Where's the shaman excavate ??????

Also the talk about they not having the tech, or whatever, and having to wait for a patch to change a card is pure BS... it's all because they don't wanna push a patch before what they have programed, probably cost they more money, and if I'm not wrong this also when the team get the most time off since is the last expasion for the year... and is around thanksgiving...

Anyone else watching this instead of studying?

I’m rooting my own horn here but I feel like I knew excavate would be good. The value felt decent enough to make the pay offs worth it.

why does rarran says all the time that deck trackers is to expensive? aren't most of them free? or is that a meme that i do not understand?

what if we collectively start treating rarran like the jerma community jokes about jerma i.e pretend he is insane

Excavate is laughably weak for Rogues. Come on, excavating EIGHT TIMES, just for 4 random spells to be free ???

As a warlock main...how do you not literally talk shit about the HS design/balance team every stream and every video? They literally said fuck warlock and moved on.

MOBA's the toxic relationship of gaming, you know it's bad for you, but you can't stop coming back to them I broke the cycle, so can you

Well... Excavate with the normal rewards are "just as" fun/random as traditional hs xD, but legendary rewards are whatever😮‍💨. When they announced this mechanic I expected the rewards to have something to do with the archetype of the deck, but no. Besides rogue and dk the others are meh🫤, warlock snake was good but why created a new mechanic just to get these lame rewards? Why does a warrior need to summon 2 odins 😅 or a mage get a random titan? 😒 I see no point on making Excavate eclusive of these classes, could be on any one or just a new collectible card.

Very broken

Day 44 of waiting for Rarran to play Plants vs Zombies Heroes.

Fake rogue excavate is my new favourite deck, it wasn't strong but it is funny too keep bouncing stuff

Simple answer: no

Is Rarran really bad at the game? 😅

Day 17 of misspelling rurren's name

League is the problem 😡

"Please tell me why I still play LoL when all it gives me is pain." Easy Chat Viewer, Sunk Cost Fallacy. You probably sunk a lot of time/money and now you feel like it's a waste to quit so you stay with it. It's a form of stockholm syndrome if you hate it but stay with it.

In my experience excavate is trash, just too slow, every deck I tried it, it was just not good enough...

Stop coping and telling yourself that league is good

Please turn down the annoying background music in the future videos , thankssss Rarran! No one is watching these videos to hear that
