^^ Currently, there's 148k people watching HS on Twitch with Amaz leading at 48k. Usually, at this time, there would probably be around 50-60k with one or two guys with about 10k viewers.
Amaz starts off 10-0 with Reno Warlock. Ends up 10-3. Loses to a babbling->sheep swing and a huge YOGG and then he has double Rag taunt + giant board with 8 life as Jaraxxus. Hunter has no hand and goes Quick Shot, Quick shot into lethal for the LOLs. He traded 1 life by using his weapon to kill 1 unit and it likely cost him. With that being said if he left the beast on board he could have lost to QS->KC.
I think Firebat starts 10-0 with only 2 shamans and then loses to 3 straight shamans.......this game.
Yeah tons of fish in this for sure. Randoms on my friends list I've never seen below rank 10 in like a year are queueing up some pretty lol worthy decks.
I'm itching to try it but know I'll flop. Been playing a bunch of weird tier 2/3 that will suck in this format and have almost no experience with any of the top decks.
Went 10-3 with beast druid, and got 700ish gold, some dust and 15 packs. I think I played 10 MR Shaman decks and 3 CWs, lost to 2 Warriors and the final Shaman (LDO).
Pretty happy with that given that I never ever play ladder and have very little idea what the top decks are and the cards that they run. Doubt I'll play again, as it just seems like a less fun Arena to me. Also I have 294 unopened packs in my collection, so definitely don't need any more of them!
did anyone catch Kripp's run last night? Was wondering how he did. He was 4-0 at one point but I couldn't stay awake any longer so I switched it off. He was running freeze mage and iirc 3 of his first 4 opponents were also freeze mage.
