you underestimate how critical that 2 mana can be turn by turn.

Would you mind sharing the decklist?

went on the run of my life last night. Played for about 12 hours more or less straight. 19-50. Went from 12:2 now at 17:1. Ran Facehunter until I got fed up with it and then ran about 5 different Druid decks because I couldn't get a winstreak with any of them.

I really need to uninstall this ****ing game and never look back on the $300 and 1000 hours wasted.

EDIT - Rank 18. Uninstalled. May God give me the strength to keep it that way this time.

But of the 10,000 hours it will take to get legend, you know you've put in the first 1,000, so it's like you've got something to show for your time.

NP I gotta post it ghetto style though cause im to noob to post a picture deck list. Constructive criticism is always welcome.

2 intervate
1 zombie chow
2 wild growth
2 wraith
1 ooze
1 BGH
2 swipe
2 Keepers
1 Kezan mystic
2 Senjin
2 DOC
1 Harrison
2 Sludge Belcher
1 Sylvanas
1 black knight
2 Ancient of lore
1 Ancient of war
1 Dr boom
1 Kel thuzad
1 Ragnores
1 Cenarious

I would be disinclined to play Black Knight unless you are seeing taunts better than Sludge Belcher, and I don't think those are present in the meta. You have a couple of one-ofs that are traditionally two-ofs (Chow and AoW), and I would recommend adding or or the other, depending on how you feel versus Mech Mage or Control and which you are seeing more of.

second chow is mandatory in that list, i can explain why some other time too tired now.

Removed Harrison and put in Troggzor in my druid to hard counter the rogue. I've been seeing more and more rogues in the past 24 hours and they must be dealt with. Harrison is good but troggzor outright wins a game if played on the right board. Will report back later.

troggzor doesnt really do anthing against oil rogue though because in the turn the rogue goes of and drops a ton of spells he will usually end with a bladeflurry and kill of al your spawned dudes.

I like black knight for the druid vs druid mirror. Gives me a nice edge. I added later in my session yesterday as I was seeing quite a few druids.

I started my games yesterday with 2 chows in but I felt like it was a dead card in my deck late game alot. Though its awesome early. Something I'll have to consider as I go on. Yeah I could see the reasoning on 2 AOW cards awesome vs mech mage/face hunter.

Thanks for the thoughts.

hit legend with a 68% winrate this season and made SjoW salty by stealing his dr.boom with my MCT so all is good. also surprisingly only lost 1 out of 7 games with priest vs rogue and I don't even run harrison. might tryhard and try to get #1 again on EU


the most popular classes were mage, rogue, shaman, and priest, in that order.

I've rotated between druid, warrior, rogue and priest myself

also shoutout to bobbo who has definitely improved a lot and seen quite a few plays I'd have missed.

Congrats man. Hope to follow in the near future. You play just in EU?

I play a bit on NA too

Fairly sure I played against you on EU early this season. I likely lost, lol

Everyone is playing piloted shredder's because of how sticky it is.... Well I've been putting in 2x sky golem's for the same reason, and so far the results are good. They act like a taunt because people freak out about the 6 attack and deal with it immediately. If they leave it alone then the 6 dmg to face is really powerful. The possibilities of the 4 drop is excellent (Senjin, Teacher, that 5/4 windfurry creature). It's starting to see play thanks to Lifecoach including it in his tournament decks and could be a new standard include card in the future.

Hello Rank 5 my old friend,

I've come to talk with you again.



feels good getting to Rank 5 on the 15th of the month. Makes me feel like I have a legit shot at it now. And to think, only 10 days ago I was Rank 18 with the game uninstalled

I just kinda got over the whole rushing to rank up thing and started trying to win one game at a time. Ironically that's the faster and better way to rank up. I was watching Hotform a bit earlier today and he was going on about how if you play Facehunter, it really comes down to luck and running hot with everyone playing equally, not better than one another. It's only once you get off those decks you can actually improve. Anyways, it's not like a combo Druid is the most intelligent deck going but I feel like I'm playing my best Hearthstone ever right now and most importantly I feel like I can win any match.

Deck is sick against Warriors, Druids and Mages. INSANE against any of the three Warlocks. Tossup against Hunter and midrange Pally (Doomsayer helps those.) I think it's bad against Rogue but I didn't face very many. Priest & Shaman seem good but too few games to really tell.

I think having a unique deck that can win is actually the most important thing in constructed. It just throws off all the netdeckers and gives such a huge edge. I had two adds tonight from people complimenting my play and deck.

It's just nice to be back playing where I feel I should be playing again.

I see you're running double combo. How's that working out for you? I feel it would be a bit slow in this meta right now.

it's working incredibly. It helps because you can blow combo piece on board clear in the early game without much regret. Like you're in a tight spot with Imp Master, 2 imps and a Keeper on board, just roar and it's OK. Using a Force to clear a Sylvannas is fine too (though Starfire is OP with that.)

double combo just doesn't feel slow at all, in fact it feels fast. Often times you already have the pieces for lethal by Turn 7 or 8 (where you have 9 mana thanks to Innervate and Tender.)

I can't decide if running a doomsayer instead of wild growth is the dumbest or smartest thing I've ever seen.

Sincerely,

A mostly druid player that can't seem to win with druid anymore.

grove tender is one of those cards I'm surprised doesn't see more play

its bad because if you play it on curve you almost never have a way to use that one mana while your opponent will on their next turn

i just pulled van cleef twice in the same game with unstable portal. what are the odds of that!?

Dare I say 50/50

yeah but a ton of cards which aren't supposed to be played on curve are still played in decks. A Turn 3 Grove Tender + Coin + Innervate + Shade for instance is really strong (and happens often since that's what you're mulliganing for.) Most people expect a Druid T9 to be like Lore + Hero Power, but now you Grove Tender first, then Lore, and the mana crystal doesn't matter because they're already at 10 next turn.

Grove Tender can be good as long as you use its versatility to your own advantage rather than your opponent's (obviously.) It's also good at cycling through your deck to find the combo while still maintaining a board presence, which is nice.

I've seen a fair bit of people running Nourish over Wild Growth now. You get two ACTIVE mana crystals so you can still hero power or 2 drop, and it only takes up 1 card in your deck. Might be worth considering.

The Grove Tenders are your Wild Growths. The idea is that against any aggro deck, you as a Druid can always use mana better than they can. You need 7 mana to play a Lore or 9 mana to combo.

So ask yourself, when it's T2 and they have out a naked Zapomatic or a Worgen and Knife Juggler, would you rather play Wild Growth, or play Doomsayer?

Also on later turns when you're behind, playing like Doomsayer + Shredder or Drake is really insane. If you just played the drop + hero power instead, they clear your drop easily. If you play Doomsayer too, they're forced to clear that to keep their board, often leaving your other minion on board, giving you more time to catch up, draw Swipe or combo to win, etc.

Playing at rank 5 tonight. Played against a handlock that coined out Sunfury first turn. Played a golden rogue that played Tinker's turn 4 with no weapon. I make my share of dumb plays, but I'm just not sure what to call these.
