    I had a pair of Win 3 Warlock games and play 30 Warlock quests so I figured the game was telling me something. I threw together a Zoo deck and promptly went 3-0 to finish both quests. Now I’m sitting a 6-0, beating 2 Quest Druids, 2 Murloc Paladins, a Highlander Hunter, and an Aggro Warrior.

    Huh?

    I definitely feel that Aggro Rogue working for me has a lot to do with crazy luck and meshing of my style and the deck's style. Like, I want to hit them hard, but I also want to control the board smartly, and I want a killer play at the end.

    Also the mulligan is so goddamn easy. I mean, really. Make sure nothing in your hand costs more than 3, don't keep poison or anything like that in-hand, job done.

    If you have the Captured Flag passive (your minions get +1/+1), then Krush also gets the buff on your side of the board when it's Brann's turn and kicks his ass even harder.

    It did feel very satisfying to be able to get Krush down to 1 health so I could win the fight by Swiping Brann in his dumbass face.

    I enjoy them, also I find them to be easier ways to do quests on classes that I don’t have a strong deck for.

    Brann what the fuck, this is a team boss battle, don't fucking play Freezing Trap

    I probably know the answer, but krush did not trigger it, right?

    Would have been quite an out of the box play from brann!

    Is it just me or does it feel like you play classes in groupings. Like I'll do a few druids a few hunters, then a priest, then a few warriors some warlocks back to back. I wonder what the under the hood is doing for the matchmaking program. Maybe it's just observer bias.

    i don't think it's any under-the-hood coding, i think it's just bad luck!

    I thought I was going to get a hate friend with a highlander hunter,

    He had an explosive trap out, and some other trap (turned out to be a pressure plate). I had two evil totems, so I just collected and deployed a shit load of lackeys and never attacked. One of my first lackeys gave me a storm bringer, so on turn 5+coin I turned a full board into beefy legends.

    I still occasionally feel crazy for running Blood Troll Sapper in my version.

    And then I get back-to-back games where it's frantically highlighted to read the text as the 8-10 damage to face through basic trades matches up perfectly for Leeroy+Soulfire.

    I dunno about Constructed/Standard, but that dude is straight up MVP in aggro Arena decks.

    I've easily won games just from dropping him down and trading off weenies into a taunt or w/e

    Got my shaman quest done, went back to aggro warrior and got back the stars I lost and more, streaking up to rank 5.

    I'm now 7-0 with it. VS is right. That deck is the shit.

    Watching Grandmasters, and ETC just gave up attacks two turns in a row by roping, waiting too long to start his turn, evolving something that ended up with charge or rush, but running out of time to use it.

    It was probably very delicious Schadenfreude for anyone who is annoyed by constant roping

    So i fired up hearthstone this morning and there was a mystery card pack for me to open. The mystery was resolved swiftly when i remembered watching a bit of HS grandmasters. So i popped that puppy and lo and behold:

    And now another player missed 3 dmg because of roping. But strifeco missed lethal next turn so it didn't matter.
