Snazzy Frocks posted:missing veranus and zixor from that deck. are those key players? If you don’t have zixor then diving griffon and scavenger’s ingenuity need to be cut as well. Veranus isn’t key but it’s a really nice dragon and good for pushing through high health taunts like druids.

adamarama posted:I'm enjoying enrage warrior and getting the hang of it but I don't understand how to use warmaul Challenger. It's quite underwhelming as removal, is it for armour gain with Smith? I've been running pillager instead and liking it. To me the deck is about smashing face with weapons until you get your opponent in range of your charge minions. Your charge burst is usually 12-14 from hand. Am I missing something? You play it when they have any sort of token to get a 1/8 or whatever that you can later enrage/battlerage/armorsmith/etc

Xguard86 posted:Ahh makes sense. Do you still go face with weapons? I find the pirate draw and lackys really useful but feels like I'm taking too much dmg removing their minions. However, when their board sticks around, doesn't go well either. If you don’t remove their minions they hit you in the face anyway, all you want to do is survive because unlike most classes you actually have the armor gain to outlast the DH

adamarama posted:I don't agree with this. Tracking is like zephyrs, you use it to fish for a solution to the current board state. It might be searching for lethal around a taunt or explosive trap to deal with a wide board. If you play tracking on turn one, what are you looking for? There may be fringe cases where your hand is absolute garbage and you just want something to play but the vast majority of the time, tracking on turn one or just to use spare mana is terrible. Terrible is a strong word for 1 mana draw a card in the class with the least amount of card draw

VS has a similar deck but I think the Betrug combo is too important. It’s a good win condition against classes that can’t deal with a wide board of big things and gives you more combo finishing options (0 cost betrug/0 cost plot twist + betrug) Also, I cut zephyrs for twisted knowledge because he comes online way too late and you can use it for more combo pieces in a slow match. Always mulligan for mo’arg, nether breath, and crazed netherwing; keep plot twist in slow matchups and for Aggro keep rain of fire/mortal coil if you already have an artificer. Toss the quest against DH.

I’ve got a fun Highlander Hunter tech that I think isn’t on anyone’s radar despite being super good and fun. There’s very few cards run right now that this guy doesn’t kill and being able to pull key cards like armorsmith, skipper, togwaggle, zephyrs, brann, etc. has won more than a couple games on its own. Even pulling galakrond invokers can be a big deal. Plus 6 mana is a pretty helpful spot in the curve to fill in.

yikes! posted:It being a beast gives me pause which is a bit bizarre, but ingenuity hitting a cheap rusher/charger is a big deal. Killing kronx or zpehrys with it would rock though. I found that the rushed stats aren’t as backbreaking with the -1/-1 nerf to ingenuity, and I’m still drawing Xixor consistently enough that it doesn’t feel like it’s ruining the combo. Also at the very least it still benefits from the bonus stats, letting it eat DQ Alex’s and Murozonds without issue. I also tried Boompistol Bully and as fun as it was against galakrond warlocks and rogues I think it’s better suited to a deck like dragon hunter that’s putting on more consistent early pressure

People who say Maiev is a spellbreaker mistake her a bit. She's a very good card at pushing tempo against big/taunt minions, but even if you imprison a 3/3 she can be a strong play if you're curving out and pushing damage. She's very good in Hunters and aggro decks in general, but people overrate her as a silence replacement.

It's pretty great being able to just outright eat librams of wisdom or just go to town against a resurrection priest by shadowstepping them for even more silence. And it's not always a lovely body with a faceless corruptor or a witchy lackey to play. Also good if you witchy lackey into a detrimental minion. To be clear I am absolute trash from the dumpster but I just hit gold yaaaaay. why not just use sap instead of owls?

orangelex44 posted:Being at low health is something that you can pretty consistently have happen in most games without trying. Your opponent does that job for you. Changing your health on your turn is often more difficult. I think molten giants probably are cheaper, faster than this guy. I don't see a way to cheat this guy out much quicker than turn...5? For a Warlock going second that hero powers every turn (including coin -> HP turn 1). You can discount it super effectively if you’re using cards like darkglare and flame imp

I think the biggest difference between the hammer and the tiger is that the tiger locks you into playing your spell immediately or on the next turn, whereas you can hold onto the hammer and just play minions until you use a brawl or something

Firebert posted:The big problem is that spell damage has been overcosted by Blizzard for...forever now, so this card is for all intents and purposes just a legendary Despicable Dreadlord. The only spell damage minions worth a drat in standard right now is Thalnos and Solarian. Squallhunter is a decent card in Shaman but the overload makes it impossible to curve into Ras with it. Maybe they will have some actually broken minions to push spell damage but I am pretty doubtful. Blizzard seems to think spell damage is equivalent in power to drawing cards or charge/rush and it has never been the case. The 1 mana 2/1 spell damage merchant and Vashj are also both good spell damage minions

I think tempo/aggro priest might have a unique advantage in that apotheosis on a growing minion basically wins an aggro vs aggro matchup instantly. The problem with the class is that it has no good ways to regain tempo against rogue, which has a lot of ways to sap or remove big buffed minions early.
