    If you have coin and you full mulligan, you have about a 32% chance of getting Keleseth for T1.

    Civics is not a consumer product that you can ignore because you don’t like the options presented.

    What % chance do you have of getting Keleseth, Librarian, Doctor, and two Ghouls?

    If you're me, about 1%. If you're my opponent, about 80%.

    Chance of drawing 3 specific cards and 1 each of 2 doubles in your first 10 draws is

    ((1-(20/30))^3)((1-(19*20/(29*30)))^2) = 2401/204363 ~= 1.17%

    I think 2 wins in a row should count as a streak.

    So since it was brought up yesterday I figured it was about time I went about clearing Monster Hunt.

    I picked up a Toki run where I was already at 6 wins and managed to win round 7 and 8 to get that done.

    Since cleared Darius Crowley and Tess Greymane.

    Just working on Houndmaster Shaw. I was on the verge of a really bullshit deck (I had 2x the deathrattles activate when you play a minion passive plus Sneeds and Highmanes) but then on Boss 7 my draw just deserted me.

    The strongest strategy against Shaw tends to be to get +2 attack for your hounds and either +2 health for your minions or restore 2 health at the end of each turn. The +2 attack bonus makes the last boss for Shaw substantially easily.

    Dunno why I kept putting that off. Got everything done in less than 24 hours.

    I opened a golden Cairne about two years ago and dusted him for another legendary, Dr. Boom or Sylvannas (can't remember which). I regretted it with the rise of N'Zoth decks, but finally re-opened a regular version of him from the latest Brawl. Also opened a Nightmare Amalgam today, so you can probably say today's been preeeeeeeeeety good.

    Their channel's entire point is literally making convoluted OTKs

    They're not about practicality, they're literally just for fun/to show off interesting/weird mechanics.

  • GvzbgulGvzbgul Registered User regular
    Hmmm. Dollmaster, gang up on Malygos with empty deck, Wrathion, damage spells.

    5+9+2+6+whatever

    If you play Malygos->prep->gang up

    Next turn Dollmaster->prep->Sprint->Sinister Strike=23 damage

    Eh, weak.

    Depends on the druid, but turn 2 Wild Growth into turn 3 Oaken Summons + Ironwood always buys a decent amount of time.

    Huh. Via Reddit:
    Pre-purchase has TWO options now (and you can buy both)

    Pre-purchase The Boomsday Project to receive a 50 card pack bundle, a random Golden Legendary card from The Boomsday Project, and the Mecha-Jaraxxus card back!

    PLUS, you can also pre-purchase the new MEGA BUNDLE, which features an 80 card pack bundle, a random Golden Legendary card from The Boomsday Project, the Mecha-Jaraxxus card back, and a new Warlock Hero: MECHA-JARAXXUS!

    I'll probably get the MEGA BUNDLE. I don't know whether or not I'll get both bundles.

    A golden legendary card from the pre-order? I see we're not even trying to avoid suggestions of Pay-to-Win.

    But no, that's good, depending on the price point I'll probably go Mega Bundle. MECHA-JARAXXUS as a hero just sounds too irresistible.

    Edit: Full YouTube description:
    Our intrepid intern Levi is teleported to the Netherstorm in search for the missing Hearthstone developers. Instead, he find out why Peter Whalen crossed the road, the imposing Boom Labs, and a card reveal from The Boomsday Project!

    LEARN MORE about The Boomsday Project at: http://www.theboomsdayproject.com

    The Boomsday Project card reveal livestream will begin at 10:00 am PST on July 23 at twitch.tv/playhearthstone.

    Pre-purchase The Boomsday Project to receive a 50 card pack bundle, a random Golden Legendary card from The Boomsday Project, and the Mecha-Jaraxxus card back!

    PLUS, you can also pre-purchase the new MEGA BUNDLE, which features an 80 card pack bundle, a random Golden Legendary card from The Boomsday Project, the Mecha-Jaraxxus card back, and a new Warlock Hero: MECHA-JARAXXUS!

    Get both the pre-purchase AND the MEGA BUNDLE for double the value!

    For a limited time, log-in after The Boomsday Project launches for three card packs and a random Class legendary minion card from The Boomsday Project!

    The Boomsday Project releases August 7 2018 PST!

    Nice that they gave us the release date straight up as August 7th. Also, as is now tradition, 3 free Boomsday packs and a free Boomsday class legendary minion when you log-in after the update.

    Live stream is July 23rd at 10am PST.

    @Donnicton they seem to have admitted defeat and re-uploaded the video at the original link if you want to add it back into your post.

    That was a fun short. Some neat mechanics proposed but I don’t see myself getting pulled back into the game.

    But maybe! I want to love hearthstone again but this expansion has been so boring.
