    I was really off my game tonight. Was swept 3-0, not proud of how any of that went.

    The RNG gods more than made up for that first mind control tech whiffing!

    i'm a big ysera booster

    I have to step away from the computer for a bit, but I'll be back in 15 minutes or so to play against the winner of KetBra vs Snowglobe.

    with a zoolock, I might add

    not that there's anything wrong with that, of course

    i resorted to a miracle hunter in the hopes that it would be effective against ramp drood, which was summarily countered by naxx zoo

    this game makes monsters of us all

    web spinners and haunted creepers are cheap and good enough beast decks with lots of one and two drops are viable again

    it's cheesy but it's referred to as miracle hunter because all the one and two drops mean you can draw a looot of cards off buzzards if you need to, while setting down useful minions, even without UTH

    the deck works because it synergizes very well with houndmaster and makes animal companion really good again, because you're actually happy to see leokk should you get him

    i think kolento piloted the main deck that i ripped off of, but i've also seen reynad run something extremely similar to it

    Technically, my deck isn't a zoo deck.

    It's a wombo-combo deck.

    Technically.

    Again a fun tournament, ggs to everybody who played. See y'all next week!

    In the grim darkness of the 21st century, there is only zoo

    aaaand the final results are in

    I am surprised that I didn't see more of the newer naxx cards played, other than deathlord a couple of times, but their time will be coming i'm sure

    i, myself, can't wait to perfect the resurrection shaman, and then it will own all the time, against every deck on the face of the earth

    snowglobe's deathrattle warlock was my favourite deck of the tournament (that I saw, at least)

  • TarranonTarranon Registered User regular
    VH's lock deck is like half aggro half zoo half burst

    it's really mean, and a key strength is that you don't expect that kind of burst from what you assume is a zoo deck, so you dip into the red sooner than you realize

    knowing the meta can make you strong, but also weak, is the moral of this story

    I had a Haunted Creeper in my druid deck, and I saw it in the KetBra's zoo deck.

    If we had made it to my third deck, the shammy, you would've seen a few more naxx cards.

    My favorite play of the tournament is a tie between double-Ysera drawing for multiple turns (Snowglobe) and the triple-blademaster/cleric/circle of healing combo that The Escape Goat played in the same game.

    That was a fun game to watch.

    but unfortunately, ysera awakened

    is that two straight for vh? after I beat him in the first round a few weeks back with a standard pre-naxx shaman? (after going down 2-0 and just being a boss and coming back)

    this has to end

    thanks a lot to VH for taking over hosting duties this week

    it makes thing a little less awkward, and he is a good man, who runs good tourneys (i think)

    My tourney-running skills are as of yet unknown.

    So far I'm the only one signed up for this week's tourney, so hopefully a bunch of people show up in the next half hour or so!

    I'm going to extend signups until 7:30 Central time, and if we don't have 4 or more people by then, I'll probably just cancel it.
