    Took 9 games to get 1 win tonight. Just a slog through 8 purely unwinnable shitshows of tier 1, perfect curves, perfect answers, nut draws. A perfect night of meaningless inputs fun!

    If you need a quick win just go to wild ranked. Assuming you don't play there regularly you'll be rank 25 and can win with half a deck.
    I'm around rank 18 in wild. Normally it doesn't take 9 fucking games in standard to get a winnable one.

    I lost track of how many Voidlords I had this game........

    (spoilers: IT WAS A LOT)

    EDIT: DID THE MATH

    2 from Deck (summoned from hand via Skull)
    1 from Faceless
    2 from Bloodreaver
    5 from N'Zoth
    -2 to Mind Control
    6 from Cube (Cubed one, Faceless on 2nd Cube storing 2)

    So that was 18 oops 16 total Voidlords, but I lost two to Mindcontrols. :rotate:

    “Hans, are we the baddies?”
    “No, my friend. That’s Dibby. Dibby once summoned 18 Void Lords in a game.”
    “But. . . That would make Dibby history’s greatest monster.”
    “Indeed.”


    In any case, my own climb to rank 5 is done. After playing Spell Hunter and Kathrena Hunter to rank seven, I stalled out. I’ve been playing Secret Mage on my alts, and I didn’t feel like playing the same darn deck all of the time. I decided to give Dude Paladin a go, and it’s been pretty darn good. Compared to Murloc Paladin, it feels like it has a weaker best case scenario and stronger worst case scenario. Which is a fancy way of saying that it’s more consistent.

    I basically just grabbed the highest win rate version of the deck off of HS replay. I’m a little leery of the one-ofs in the deck; just one Spellbreaker, one Equality, one Unidentifed Maul, one Drygulch Jailor, and one Vinecleaver. Some of that is for curve reasons (two Vinecleavers would probably be bad), but I feel like one of the one-ofs should be replaced by a second Drygulch Jailor. He’s been excellent, except when a Priest turns out to not be Combo rather than Spiteful, steals him with Potion of Madness, and then follows up a few turns later with Knife Juggler and three Silver Hand dudes to wreck my board (that sucked).

    ### Dude, where’s my Murloc
    # Class: Paladin
    # Format: Standard
    # Year of the Mammoth

    2x (1) Argent Squire
    2x (1) Lost in the Jungle
    2x (1) Righteous Protector
    2x (2) Dire Wolf Alpha
    1x (2) Drygulch Jailor
    1x (2) Equality
    2x (2) Knife Juggler
    2x (3) Divine Favor
    2x (3) Rallying Blade
    2x (3) Steward of Darkshire
    1x (3) Unidentified Maul
    2x (4) Call to Arms
    2x (4) Lightfused Stegodon
    1x (4) Spellbreaker
    2x (5) Stand Against Darkness
    2x (6) Crystal Lion
    1x (6) Sunkeeper Tarim
    1x (7) Vinecleaver

    AAECAYsWBvIF9AW5wQKDxwLW5QK35wIMpwX1BdkHsQjZrgK7rwL/rwK4xwLZxwLjywL40gKJ5gIA

    Now that I’m safely to my seasonal goal, I’m going to try to focus on Warlock. It’s one of the three classes that I don’t have at L60 (the others are Shaman and Warrior), so I figure that this is probably a good time to level it and pick up ranked wins.

    3 were played prior to Bloodreaver. Bloodreaver brought back 2. N'Zoth brought back 5.

    All three Cubes died and summoned their respective Voidlords.

    Also it was 16 not 18, I was accidentally adding 2 because I was just going down the list o' numbers I wrote up. Forgot there was a minus in front of that one >_>

    I'm running Chittering Tunneler cause a) I opened two from the Mammoth Bundle and wanted to try it and b) I think it's Actually Good. Seriously, the number of times I've discovered an extra Spellstone (which then also upgrades immediately as it goes into hand), or gotten an extra board clear, or just something useful. It's also an extra proc for Spellstones outside of KobLibs and Hellfire.

    N'Zoth is there for Extra Greedlording.

    I might cut a Coil for that second Tunneler.


    Edit: Tunneler(s) can just be Spellbreaker if you don't have em tho. But I like em.

    Drafted a warlock deck in arena to get to 2 losses to prepare for the wild arena switch. I got offered 8 rares and 6 epics, but the deck scored like 68 points because I was given so many bad choices. And of course no legendaries yet again. :(

    I did get a Voidlord and a Cube, though. I wonder if I'll get to live the dream before I hit 2 losses.

    Whoot finally got my arthas!

    Mage and paladin were the hardest by far.

    Used alarm o bot decks for everything but paladin(murloc) and shaman(token/bloodlust)

    But mage was tricky cause you needed to mulligan 5 cards. Lackey+secret, alarm o bot, gastropod and finally a big taunt to protect your face.

    Starting on February 19 and lasting through March 11, the Arena draft will offer cards that are exclusive to Wild. Have an existing Arena run going? Be sure to finish it up before Wildfest begins – existing Arena runs will be retired automatically at the start of Wildfest. We’ll remind you that Wildfest is coming, so you have ample time to finish your runs before the fun commences.
