Gorehowl to face is a great finisher!

The Bulge · Post Post #3726 (ISO) » Mon May 30, 2016 10:17 am

Can confirm - just died to face gorehowl right after a really sweet yogg

Would have been rank 6

Sudo_Nym · Post Post #3727 (ISO) » Mon May 30, 2016 12:22 pm

I've never facehowled anyone

Closest I've gotten was killing Vek'lor with Gorehowl and Gromming face.

Man....I highly reccommend speccing action dan. It is always a pleasure. Today was 5 slude belchers and a thressian against a pile of the rogue dupelicator and antique healbots.

Wut.

Never spectate me unless you want cancer. I play mainly face shaman, but I sometimes mix in Reno/Elise warrior for extra cancer

I mostly play slow control decks. So if you want to see Control Priest and N'zoth Paladin played really mediocre, feel free to spectate me!

I play really dumb decks that are silly things I think of, so if you want to see someone at about rank 18 playing silly things because I like a particular card, feel free to spectate me!

Anyone have good tips for making an Arena deck? Best I've ever done is 2 wins.

Also TIL most people don't get above rank 18. Makes me feel better about my rank (currently 18, best this season is 16).

Dupe echo control mage against some weird rogue deck that created 1/1 dupes and thistle tea and gang up to create many healbots.

____
I played agains a deck very similar to buttons deck on my giant fuck you winning streak from 16 to 9. I'm playing big daddy hunter. Dropping the beast. It's great. I only can win with midrange hunter decks, I can never get past 10 with anything else.

Try to draft higher value cards and pick kinda to a curve. There are definitely strategy articles for arena if you google. Also play mage or paladin

For the sake of learning, I'd recommend using HearthArena.com for a few drafts to get a feel for what types of cards are generally valuable

BROseidon · Post Post #3736 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 4:07 am

Paladin.

The Bulge · Post Post #3737 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 4:11 am

Paladin.

Sudo_Nym · Post Post #3738 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 4:16 am

Paladin, because Mustard is so good, then probably Mage, because Flamestrike is so good.

Also this. Heartharena got me to the point where I was comfortable drafting my own decks and brought my avg wins from ~2 to ~6.

Rogue is second best because tempo+countering paladin

BROseidon · Post Post #3741 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 4:25 am

Mage is third

xRECKONERx · Post Post #3742 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 4:27 am

Rogue is also significantly harder to draft well than Mage

The Bulge · Post Post #3743 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 4:29 am

Paladin just has so many top tier picks its ridiculous. And it's easy to get a good mage draft because a lot of the burn spells fulfill the same role. My problem with rogue is that I'm pretty bad at health management with daggers.

True. Rogue takes skill

Never knew about this site. Thanks for the link!

Wait, correct me if I'm wrong but this deck editing menu lets you choose ahy cards you want for your picks. How's that supposed to train you for building arena decks where you have very limited choices?

The Bulge · Post Post #3746 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 10:13 am

You use it simultaneously with an actual draft. Input the picks you got, and it will tell you the best one to pick.

GreyICE · Post Post #3747 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 10:19 am

Yeah it's alright in accuracy.

You could just use a tier list, given how HA has gone it's pretty much the same thing. Tier lists also let you scan them and see interesting things. Like Sap is a lot better than Shado-Pan Rider.

BROseidon · Post Post #3748 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 12:11 pm

Sap is insane in draft

BROseidon · Post Post #3749 (ISO) » Wed Jun 01, 2016 12:12 pm

Arena is all about dat tempo
