I'm gonna say yes to Arcane Missiles because that's a borderline female undead caster. Dragon's Breath is a no after looking at the larger artwork. Boar and Muster are also no since the women aren't prominent enough. All the others mentioned are good.

I crafted a golden Naturalize for this Brawl to have a golden Mill Druid. It's fun and fast.
/edit:
Ok, I'm spectating some random person on Asia (because my only real friend there is offline @hippofant ) and after he failed with Lightwell/Divine Spirit/Inner Fire he's now trying Muster for Battle, Quartermaster and Redemption. That's gonna take a while to get my spectating pack.
He's up against Young Dragon Hawk, ColdBlood, Conceal.
After he lost he changed the secret to Noble Sac.
He actually won! Against a Mechwarper Hunter who got a bad start (no Mechwarpers)

Good Asian Friend @Grobian! Let us battle honourably for 80 gold!
A lot of room for some innovation in this Tavern Brawl, with three cards instead of two. Of course, the majority of opponents will still be playing the same decks that dominated when it was 2-cards by just adding a third to the already crazy decks.
You have the Mech Hunter: Mechwarper, Metaltooth Leaper & then the third card is either Annoy-o-Tron or Enhance-o Mechano.
You have the Mill Druid: Coldlight Oracle, Naturalize & Innervate.
You have the Ice Block Decks: Usually something like Ice Block, Frost Nova & Fireball.
There's a few other decks that pop-up now, like Warlock with Mechazhar's Imp, Silverware Golem & Soulfire. Or sometimes Succubus.
There's a Mage deck that tries to go infinite with Sorcerer's Apprentice, Arcane Intellect & Forgotten Torch.
There's still the Bolster Warrior that plays Shieldbearer & then some other card - which ultimately doesn't usually matter.
I honestly had the most fun with Rogue. Novice Engineer, Shadowstep & Edwin Van Cleef. My most satisfying win however was Preparation, Fan of Knives, Edwin Van Cleef where I fanned the entire Mech board & dropped a 14/14 Van Cleef for the insta-concede.
Again, the Brawl is fun, and it's good for knocking out daily quests quickly as the games go super fast, it just gets super boring & stale so fast because people stop trying to come up with new ideas & just join the crowd of everyone else playing the same degenerate decks.
Kripp played Voidcaller, Sacrificial Pact & Mal'Ganis which I thought was genius! ...but then it just lost to the same decks every other deck loses to. Which is why people play the Mech & Mill decks in the first place. Shame.
the problem with malchezzar is his animation does not play 10 times
Aye, even though on the left side bar it shows that it does!
Ran into a fun little mage combo. Arcane intellect, torch, sorc apprentice. After a few turns, once they managed to drop three mages down, it was gg from there.

Seems to be the common Mage theme, I ran into one that used Ice Lance instead of Torch.
So thinking about Barnes Ysharr "no minions" hunter deck, is there any other class that could pull this off?
Call of the Wild and the "summon huffer" spells are two legit great cards that make the hunter deck work.
Secrets are also legit great board clears / single minion clears.
Maybe Mage with all of its removal?

Even the Barnes + normal Hunter Deathrattle minions deck is crazy strong. Hunter just takes such good advantage of Barnes.

Probably something announced at Blizzcon in early november and released later that month.
Welcome to the Penny Arcade Forum Variable Tournament!
Our (un)official Penny Arcade Forum will focus on adding some variety to the normally stagnant HS tournament scene. But not only that, there will be prizes!*
Each round of the tournament will feature a different rule set in order to spice up the variety and fun! Each round's restrictions will be stated below except for the final which will be revealed before the game begins to truly test our finalist's deck-building skills!
GENERAL INFO
Tournament will take place on Saturday, the 24th at 11:00 am (PST)
This will be a 3-round tournament featuring 8 players
Decks must be built and submitted before the tournament to me
Each round is win with 3 different decks to proceed
There are a lot of games so players are encouraged not to play too slowly
Players must have Paypal accounts to claim 2nd/3rd place prizes
Screenshots are encouraged as well as spectating
You might be streamed if someone is up for it
Top 4 players will need to communicate so please be chat ready
Sign up by saying so with an "@" MNC Dover
First 8 people are in, all others are alternates
If you want to stream or commentate, let me know
ROUNDS 1st round: Ladies Night! Make 3 decks from different classes containing only cards that feature females. Win with all 3 decks to move on!
If you're unsure if a character featured is female, do a quick Google search (example: Alexstraza is female). Mechs, giants, and beasts are all considered neutral and therefore unplayable. The lone exception is Misha who is confirmed female, allowing both Animal Companion and Call of the Wild playable. This is Wild format and any debatable cards will be settled by me. Please note: Read the alt text for hints...especially Master of Disguise.
2nd round: Arena Constructed!Go to Hearthhead Arena and choose one of the 3 classes offered. Draft a deck as usual. After you finish, you'll make two extra decks out of the remaining cards you didn't select. Win with all 3 decks to move on!
This obviously can't be perfect given the restrictions of Constructed rules (2 cards max per type), so try and draft accordingly. Like, if you're offered a 3rd Fireball, don't select it for your first deck. In the rare case you're offered 7 Fireballs, well one will become a Forgotten Torch or something equivalent. Your first deck will be set in stone, but your follow-up decks can have lots of synergy! Draft smart and make sure not to select all the good cards!
If you're given card choices that you don't have, let me know and we'll find an equivalent card. Also, the site is a little buggy, so don't draft too fast. Sometimes cards don't have images, but are still selectable. If this occurs, get a screenshot and choose a card. The other cards will show up in the final tally and I'll allow for substitutions with proper documentation. I highly suggest doing a practice round to get used to the site before going all-in.
Finally, make sure and screenshot your final card choices in case you forget a card or whatever. Make sure you complete this well ahead of time so it won't slow the tournament down. This will be on an honor system, so no rerolling classes or reloading card choices please. All questions, card alternates, and so on will be settled by me.
FINALS Surprise round! Our two finalists won't know the rules until they begin play. Each will have 10-minutes to create a deck based on mystery restrictions. Should be silly fun! 3rd/4th place will also be playing in this hidden format.
PRIZES
First Place! A $20 Blizzard gift card generously provided by our own @Roz! Buy 15 card packs of your choice! Perhaps get those two alt art heroes! Buy an Adventure! It's your credit, do with it as you please!
Second Place! I'll buy you an alt art Hero! Choose between Magni, Alleria, or Medivh! Already have 'em all? Well, put that $10 towards cards or whatever.
Third Place! I'll buy your Welcome Bundle! That's right, 10 free packs + a guaranteed class legend! A $5 value on me!
Winners will be expected to take pictures of their rewards and post 'em on the forums!
*Prize notes: First prize will be a $20 gift card code that I will PM to you. In order to claim your 2nd or 3rd place prize, you MUST have a Paypal account and be willing to share your email address via PM with me. Please keep this in mind if you enter the tournament. If you win, you can always forfeit your prize to someone else with a Paypal account if you choose. While you are receiving money, I do fully expect you to spend it on your actual reward so please post screenshots of your winnings!

Arena Druid vs Mage. I'm in full control and been playing tempo all game. My board is a 3/2 and 5/2 on turn 8. He had no clear the prior turn and was down to near lethal range. So naturally it was Babbling Book, RNG Flamestrike. With a clear board, he gained control and went Medivh -> double fireball (one of which was Kor'Kron Elite for lethal).
Fuck Arena!

Good Asian Friend @Grobian! Let us battle honourably for 80 gold!
60 card deck.
Ice Block, Molten Giant, Loot Hoarder.
It loses to mill, but wins against most of the other stuff.
idk what beats that. Maybe mill but you have to pull really well.
Then he got two out and double, double, change heal to damage for 24 to the face.
I did this vs a hunter who ran firebat, camel and kill command.
He got me down to 1 hp. Thankfully the wife pointed out that if I drop deathwing it'd kill my majordomo and heal me back to 8!
Fun win.
