    It seems very disingenuous to me that Blizzard advertises that spending $20 on the solo adventure gets you 15 packs, when it's really only 12.

    There are 4 chapters + grand finale giving you 3 uldum packs each, which is 15. Then the 16th is a golden classic pack.

    Wow Discover is pretty trash now

    Some are. Discover a spell is unchanged. So is discover a lackey or a choose one card or 'a Nage minion'. Power of Creation is buffed.

    The first chapter and 3 of the packs are free. Spending $20 doesn't give you 15 more packs than not spending $20.

    Bomb/Control Warrior definitely get hit the hardest by the Discover change in the current meta. It's hard to gauge exactly how much this will hurt them, but it's definitely a nerf. Seems like Aggro Warrior will be the preeminent Warrior deck after this nerf.

  • DibbyDibby I'll do my best! Registered User regular
    Hi fam I've had a good think about it now and I think this Discover change is probably good for the health of the game in the long term!!! It's super not healthy for Control Warrior to be discovering 4 million Tomb Wardens/Omega Devastators and honestly that's a good way to nerf that without actually touching the cards themselves.

    Off the top of my head I'm trying to think of what this truly negatively impacts outside of Warrior... Hmm... Blazing Invocation? That never really saw play outside of getting one off a Lackey or Vulpera though. Affects Elysiana as well but that's, a Warrior card, let's be real.

    Outside of Standard though, like Arena I suppose? I guess it hurts things like Journey Below, Netherspite Historian, Museum Curator, Dark Peddler, Jeweled Scarab, A Light in the Darkness, Stonehill Defender, Primalfin Lookout, Golden Scarab, Tomb Spider, Gorillabot, Servant of Kalimos, Free From Amber....

    I have no idea if any of those see play in Wild, but it definitely affects Arena quite a bit. Hmm!

    It really says a lot about how much they juiced Warrior that they felt the best nerf was to take a shotgun to a core game mechanic

    "Oh we couldn't POSSIBLY nerf dr boom again"

    I doubt it affects Wild at all. Our meta is mostly Secret Mage and Snip-Snap Warlock now.

    Stonehill and Netherspite are the only ones that both see Wild play and are adversely affected. Dragon Priest isn't very popular (it is pretty good though) and Stonehill had already been trending out in both Odd Paladin and control Warlocks. Not being able to consistently grab Sunkeeper/Tirion/Rin/Voidlords probably kills it completely.

    Yup. What really annoys me though is they have the ability to do live asset downloads and this will probably have one after the update too, so what is this actually downloading now?

  • fortyforty Registered User regular
    Gotta download 2 GB for that Discover nerf.

  • ThawmusThawmus +Jackface Registered User regular
    Sometimes their patches are legitimate patches but I feel like a lot of times what I'm downloading is just the fucking game all over again.

    One of the Brawl packs hooked me up with a golden Epic (the Totem splitter axe so, woo, free dust) and a crisp, clean Druid Quest.

    Cenarius just looked up from the back corner of my card collection and gave me a big thumbs up.

    Nice. One of the 2 packs I got had 3 rares, 1 golden rare and Reno! (and the other had 1 rare and 1 golden rare)

  • JuliusJulius Captain of Serenity on my shipRegistered User regular
    The regular brawl pack was of course 40 dust.

  • fortyforty Registered User regular
    Is this week's Brawl better than last week's?

  • I needed anime to post.I needed anime to post. boom Registered User regular
    it's basically a standard "random decks" brawl except you get a 0 mana spell that does the Zephrys effect, and shuffles a copy of itself into your deck

    liEt3nH.png
  • fortyforty Registered User regular
    Ahhh, the Wishes brawl. That's not too far off from my prediction of how it would work!

  • envoy1envoy1 the old continentRegistered User regular
    My brawl was real easy. Played against a warlock who discarded the 0 mana zephrys spell and instaquit after.

  • MNC DoverMNC Dover Full-time Voice Actor Kirkland, WARegistered User regular
    This week's Brawl was 3 packs for me and, not surprisingly, 135 dust (1 extra Rare). Thankfully I completed it in one game, even though I only saw 1 Wish and my opponent got 2 Kalygos. Turns out 3 Loathebs, Scargill, and 2 Underbelly Anglers are pretty good.

    I made aggro warrior and it is hilarious beating opponents who guessed wrong and held their slow value cards thinking you're control only to get punched repeatedly in the face until they die on turn 6

    That’s one of the main strengths of aggro warrior, isn’t it? That people mulligan wrong against it?

  • fortyforty Registered User regular
    I would say no. It's a strong deck even if your opponent doesn't pass the first 3 turns.

  • BeastehBeasteh THAT WOULD NOT KILL DRACULARegistered User regular
    You can wasp inner rage rampage and bloodsworn mercenary and just outright kill your opponent fairly often if you aggressively mulligan for the pieces

  • MuffinatronMuffinatron Registered User regular
    Wow. I managed to beat a quest Paladin with Bomb Warrior!

    Miracles can happen.

    I just went full yolo to the face with everything I had.

    Fortunately he never drew Zilliax to pull off any serious life gain turns.

    VS #140 is up: https://www.vicioussyndicate.com/vs-data-reaper-report-140/

    Quest Shaman as a single deck is more popular than any other classes archetypes combined despite being a middle/low T2 deck. Combo Priest remains the best deck at all skill levels with Murloc Paladin, Reno Hunter, Aggro Warrior, and Control Warrior comprising the rest of T1 and top of T2.

    Correct. He also doesn't know the contents of your hand.
