Just lost two arena games in a row that make me want to murder things.
Priest: Coin Lightwell, Inner Fire + Argent, Ancient Watcher + Cleric, Sunfury + (rest doesn't matter)
Warlock: Flame Imp, Kobold, Darkbomb my 2 drop, Implode my 3 drop for 5, Loatheb, Darkbomb face.
Also lost against a Shaman where my Flamecannon hit a totem vs Totem Shredder pinged Sunwalker Earth Elemental and then MCT drew a totem vs Totem Shredder Earth Elemental and a 2 drop. The guy also BGH'd my Fel Reaver on turn 5.
Was playing mech mage earlier, got matched up vs grim patron warrior. He had a terrible start, pretty much. anyways, gets to turn 9. he's "forced" to naked grim patron and then whirlwinds twice to get a few of them out. I have a shredder and blast mage on board. my turn comes and I just flame strike his board. He spammed me with emotes the rest of the game. Good times
I'm getting torn up by the new Zoolock as Priest. He has a pretty full board. I put a Sylv after light bombing the turn before with him having a giant and he has a Void Caller and a Knife Juggler on board. He puts a Void Walker and another void caller and continues to go face. I steal a void caller with a shrinkmaster combo. He then void terrors an abusive sergeant and continues to him me in the face. I end up clearing his board and my sylv steals his void caller. So now I have 2 void callers, a shrink master and a Cabal Shadow Priest and he has around 14 life--I have 9 (I holy nova + heal the previous turn). He then stupidly plays a Malganis, I of course mind control it and boom he's dead. I guess he was dead anyways but sick swing.
He was playing Face Hunter and got me (Warlock) down to 1 HP on his final turn and he had 19 HP, he had of course ignored my board which was pretty powerful, including having Boom and both his bots out. After I all out attacked him and then dark bombed him, I hellfired, killing myself, wiping out his board, and putting him down to 3 HP, with both boom bots to hit him and thankfully the first bomb went off for 3 ending it. I would have been epically pissed if both bombs had done 1.
Wasn't me so not really on topic but it was pretty hilarious so I'll tell it anyway.
I was watching Kibler's stream the other day and he was playing dragon paladin against a handlock player. His opponent had Jaraxxus out and it was looking like Kibler would get ground down by that hero power.
He draws Nefarian and says, "got to go for it. Come on Sacrificial pact".
Nefarian gives him a sacrificial pact and he destroys Jaraxxus for the win.
I'm on such a huge losing streak in pack opening it's very disheartening. Haven't gotten a legendary in months, been getting 40 dust like it's clockwork.
I'm a F2P player, never bought a single pack, but been playing since beta, as such I'm in that weird spot where I almost never get new cards, I have every single common and magic in the game and many epics/legendaries, so unless the pack has at least an epic I'm just dusting.
Just had that double mind control finish. Villain mind control's my insanely buffed out Sunwalker, ends turn. I snap mind control him right back and hit his face to win.
The computer AI is busted. I was trying out a new deck, was losing a lot against real people, so decided to try Expert AI. I randomly chose rogue as opponent.
Turn 2: youthful brewmaster (remember, this card returns a minion from the board into the hand)
Turn 3: youthful brewmaster (returning other brewmaster). Coin. youthful brewmaster.(returning the new brewmaster)
Turn 4: youthful brewmaster (returning other brewmaster). Then brewmaster again.
Finally, I just killed the brewmaster to keep him from doing this over and over again. Also realized that I should never play against expert AI again.
I'm guessing the AI is valuing playing a card that has a battlecry, and if there's a situation where it can extend the value of a card by having it's battlecry go off multiple times then that probably trumps the other options it has. It's funny that it ends up caught in a loop it can't get out of though.
