Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft

A twitch emote.

Hearthstone is very popular in Twitch and kappas are always present

This is a Kappa◊

It got its name because reading Twitch chat is about as bad as having your soul sucked out through your anus.

Fake. Garrosh had no Slam and Execute on hand. >.>

How do lizards fly?

Holy shit my luck is BAD tonight, trying to get 5 wins with a rogue and just gave up after I went from rank 13 to 16...

3 Totemic Might from Swashburglers in 3 shaman games were the highlights of the night... Yeah it was that bad.

The irony is that Miracle / Malygos Rogues would kill to have those Totemic Mights in hand.

I was playing my deathrattle rogue with 2 Swashburglers instead of 2 Journey Below, yeah not sure of the card right now with my luck.

It would still have been Anduin's turn so no chance to Execute the 48/48 Deathwing

Turn 1 Barnes is actually a terrible play. (Thanks, r/hearthstonecirclejerk!)

Also, this week's Brawl is Captain Blackheart's Treasure. Discover was one of the better "new" mechanics in Hearthstone (not hard when your competition is Inspire and Joust) - wish they used it more often.

Soooo, the Karazhan bosses won't attack/destroy a taunted exploding sheep. Including the crone and her twitsting nether.

Ok, THAT is getting patched, I'd bet 20 packs on it.

They never patched the Kel'Thusad Taunt bug that did the same thing. So i'd be willing to take them 20 packs from you.

I'm trying to imitate Disguised Toast, it's surprisingly hard. You need lots of luck with the draws and discover. :p

What bout that Abomination that does 2 damage to everything? It even comes pre-taunted. Or an exploding ghoul?

So the Brawl is pretty fun.

That is the face of a man who just ate a kitten. Raw.

It's not the worst but it's a little slow IMO and it can be frustrating to spend several turns not discovering Flamestrike or Pollymorph when you badly need one.

Had a Priest summon an Ancient of War with Forbidden Shaping that Just Would Not Die. Tentacles. Velen's. PWS. I throw Anomalus on the board. He drops Enhance-o-Mechanico and it gets Divine Shield to trade into Anomalus with. I manage after three turns of stalling with freeze and taunt to pull a Moat Lurker that knocks the buffs off it before the Moat Lurker dies and he pulls ANOTHER freaking Tentacles.

Needless to say, I lost that game.

I don't think those work

It seems that the AI is coded to not kill minions who have AOE deathrattles and prioritize another targets. When those minions gain taunt, it suddenly can't find another valid target, so it just doesn't attack.

Abominations and Ghouls seem to not have been included in that rules in they had taunt already. Blizzard just forgot to account for Tentacle of N'Zoth and the Sheep GAINING Taunt

It's unlikely to be fixed. As someone mentioned earlier, the Kel'Thusad + Taunt bug can be used to easily defeat all bosses since the first adventure. It's been acknowledged by Ben Brode on twitter and yet bosses from Karazan are still vulnerable to it.

Or maybe Bliz can rewrite the entire bloody AI code. It's not that hard.

This land is peaceful, its inhabitants kind.. ∩(·ω·)∩ WAIT, is this supposed to be the mistress herself?

I love when my Shaman deck gives me a winning streak ^^ Won three games and was even able to beat a Warlock with a C'thun gimmick.

FYI they do attack taunted explosive sheep etc if there are two or more minions with AOE deathrattles on the board. They will also attack if you have the noble sacrifice secret up but the AI will freeze up again when the secret is gone.

From my experiments, they will also attack the explosive sheep if they've used a temporary attack buff on their own minion. Abusive Sergeant can cause this to happen.

Mudkip's final evolution is in fact NOT Mudkipperino.

Wow it's weird no one commented that the menagerie was released today.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand it was really easy. I even beat heroic Nightbane with a half-assed C'Thun Druid

Ugh, that sucks >_< I was able to get a Priest down to 3 health but because he kept getting lucky draws he managed to beat me.

I wanted to see how far I can get with my C'Thunadin before I have to make a deck specifically to beat certain bosses.

Turns out I just had to draw the right cards at the right time and hope for the boss to not spam removal constantly. Managed to basically brute-force my way through.

Illhoof took the most attempts.

Welcome to Estalia, gentlemen.

So umm they really needed to up the difficulty of this adventure, I think I have only had to restart once ever and most ladder decks just steamroll them.

I don't know, I don't mind not wasting an hour of my life mulliganing for Inner Fire, Divine Spirit and Deathlords. (On the other hand, the AI is actually Artificial Stupidity, so I guess it needed all the help it could get...)
