    So how do I know what quests are taverns quests? I have one that unlocks a hero, is that one? Also, I got a free arena run I think with the tavern, does that exprire too?
    Taverns quests are daily quests that reward both X gold and X dust. They should have an arcane dust bottle on them in addition to the normal gold bag. Hero unlocks are not taverns quests.

    In past events, arena runs in progress have been retired (giving you the rewards for your current win count) but also given you a ticket refund. Assuming that holds, you'll want to start an arena run (if you haven't already) and then play until you have 2 losses.

    I believe the arena ticket refund only happens if you have a run in progress, so don't retire it manually.

    The more wins you get in arena the better your rewards.

    And at the very worst you will get two more losses and have lost nothing since they don't count against you.

    Ended 12-1 with last week's Brawl. Kinda sad I couldn't get more games in, I was having a blast with it. I think the chess game is one of Ford's Team 5's better ideas, and I was happy to see it in a brawl.

    Ran into a lot of Priests trying to do fancy bullshit, occasionally a Warrior. But in the end I just kept equipping Arcanite Reaper and throwing Grom or Leeroy out there and we'd just go face. I think a lot of my opponents were just trying to control the board, but with 20 health and 20+ armor in most games, I just didn't give a fuck.

    Final list:

    Yeah, it might end up there with Millhouse Manastorm!

    At 5 mana it probably becomes playable. But until Un'goro rotates, it's essentially competing with Vilespine (worse body for much stronger effect).

    it can go face tho

    and vilespine fills a different role (assassinate on a stick) whereas this one would be spot removal on a stick. dealing 3 damage and developing a 5/5 isn't bad at all.

    Yes, that hypothetical card isn't bad. I said it probably becomes playable, in fact!

    I mostly just fought a slew of Even Warlocks tonight with my Tier 3 at best Shaman deck, which didn't go well for me. Tier 1 or GTFO I guess, no matter your rank.

    Zoo is evolving. VS reports keep reporting that Zoo is good, and HS Replay has it better than Even Warlock, just short of T1. I got absolutely wrecked by a version of it earlier today, which led me to go build that version, which led to me wrecking a few Paladins and Rogues.

    Yeah I was perusing HSReplay and saw that deck yesterday. Saw it's winrate, how many played games it had (a LOT) and thought "well, this isn't some random freak accident, i suppose".

    That's kinda crazy! No Doomguards, no Bloodreaver. Madness. But it works???


    Edit: Man hold on, wouldn't Glinda be kinda insane in this deck? Glinda+Voodoo Doctor+Happy Ghoul = fill board with 0 mana 3/3s.

    No Gul'dan isn't a huge shock to me. That card hasn't won me a single Zoolock game yet. Either I've won before I got to play him, or been too far behind by the time I've been able to play him that I just lost in the next turn or two anyway. He's actually my current biggest regret-craft.

    I don't think so. By the time she would come down, the Happy Ghouls have long since been played. The pretty much typically get summoned the turn that they're drawn. The card that I'm considering adding is Azalina Soulthief. For all the gas that the deck can draw, it can still start stumbling around turn seven or eight against a well played/lucky control deck. Soulthief potentially provides that gas - and knowledge of what to play around.

    been playing some egg hunter with this list:

    ### egg
    # Class: Hunter
    # Format: Standard
    # Year of the Raven
    #
    # 2x (1) Candleshot
    # 2x (1) Hunter's Mark
    # 2x (1) Play Dead
    # 2x (1) Tracking
    # 2x (2) Grievous Bite
    # 2x (2) Loot Hoarder
    # 2x (2) Sunfury Protector
    # 2x (3) Devilsaur Egg
    # 2x (3) Stitched Tracker
    # 2x (3) Terrorscale Stalker
    # 1x (3) Void Ripper
    # 2x (4) Flanking Strike
    # 1x (4) Houndmaster Shaw
    # 2x (5) Carnivorous Cube
    # 1x (6) Deathstalker Rexxar
    # 2x (6) Savannah Highmane
    # 1x (8) Kathrena Winterwisp
    #
    AAECAR8EhtMCtuoC/eoCgPMCDY0B+wH7BpcI7QmrwgLYwgKGwwKczQLTzQLd0gKL4QLh4wIA

    things that feel good:
    all the interactions between deathrattles is really fun.
    any turn 2/3/4 that involves eggs, terrorscale stalkers, and play dead are really strong
    it's hunter, so you get to play DK rexxar the most fun broken card in the game

    things that feel bad:
    kathrena is maybe the least effective card in the list. there's just not enough beasts to pull
    the highmanes don't feel amazing either, but they're the only beasts to pull
    your removal options are incredibly slim

    It's been an "under the radar" Good Card for a while, that people are slowly starting to appreciate the power of. It's very strong in aggro decks against Even Warlock and Big Spell Mage and Taunt Druid.
