The TGT bonus is gone. This makes it much easier to get weapons. There's a reason Fiery War Axe is called a win axe.

There was a (25% ???) bonus to the offer rate of TGT cards. That is now gone.

Rewards: 250 gold, golden rare, golden epic, pack

This deck wasn't even strong but it's my first 12-0. I just curved well. Scientist into secrets were great. Spellbender is the obvious MVP in this deck cause all I did was go into topdeck wars with Paladins toward the end and when they found their blessings and seals I just won on the spot.

Arena surprises me sometimes. Just went 6-3 on a Shaman deck I expected to not even go 4 wins.

Drawing a better curve than your opponent trumps all other factors in arena. I could beat the best player with the best deck, with my worst arena deck, if I was able to simultaneously pick all of his draws and all of my draws.

My last 6 runs went 0-3, 0-3, 1-3, 7-3, 5-3, 3-3. Feel better?

Granted, I drafted those first 3 runs on my phone at approx 4am after I took sleep meds, and did the run at the same time, haha. But I haven't had a 'serious' run go over 10 in quite a while, either. I tend to just win about 4 (when I'm drafting seriously).

took this deck to 12-2 all on stream. makes it 4 out of 5 streamed arenas runs have gone 12, lol. lots of gold as a reward.

only thing missing from the picture is "Dark Peddler - 5"

Yes, I got 5, and yes, they were MVPs every game.

My first ever 12-0, feels good. Basically no weak cards at all, and they all did work at different times. Rewards were gold common, gold rare, and 260 gold.

Is there some paladin meta that says don't draft 2 drops? Every other paladin I face in arena hero powers on turn 2. Even at high win totals. Maybe I just notice it with paladins because every other opponent is a paladin (averaging 30% actually right now).

Happy feast of Winterveil, champions!

not shown: pit fighter, avenging wrath, 2 Drakonoid crushers, volcanic drake, fossilized devilsaur

rewards: 245 gold, golden common, 2 packs

This deck was quite unimpressive as far as paladins go with my only weapon being muster and me playing consecration maybe one (!!) time in 14 games. I drew murloc knight in probably 10 of the games though and that carried. I got 3/4 inspires off it more than I ever have in a run before. Also I played a druid and a warlock in the final two matches and paladins definitely smash warlocks.

Had a good Rogue draft, but lacked card draw.

Went 3-3 because I could never draw my 1's until late game, except for 1 game where I played my worgen infiltrator turn 1 into Paladin's coin mad bomber. And because everyone is either a Mage or a Paladin, and the deck downside was that I had 0 card draw.

Considering the # of people who play HS and post on 2+2 and the # of arena runs that are likely run--at most 1-2 12 runs a day seems pretty normal. I'm guessing it's probably 2-3% of runs are 12 win runs. Nobody is posting their crap runs for the most part. Right now I'm probably at 6 wins on average but I have a few 8-10 runs and a few 2-4 win runs. I wouldn't get overly concerned about your number of wins unless it's always 2-3.

Started 1-2, fought to 12-2. Blessing of kings and murloc knight carried. I seem to do much better in paladin when I don't get weapons to draft.

Toughest boss was vs a mage where i got divine favor off a spellslinger to replenish after her three aoe's.

Most fun win was I dropped a mana wraith vs a rogue on turn three and she was locked. I then played BOK and BOK the next two turns and it didn't die the whole game.
