Honestly this would be a great concept to get people to play outside of their comfort zones and explore other classes.
That being said, they would REALLY need to put a lot of work on it because they changed the ranking structure not that long ago. In order to do this, there would need to be an overhaul of the ranking/star system. Otherwise they are going to be getting a lot of people to the Legend rank. Not to say that is a bad thing, but coming from someone who hasn't got to that rank before as it... it's kind of prestigious to have that rank at least once.
Update.... I finally DID get to Legend yesterday in Wild with a Feral Druid build, so there's that
The same situation is already happening with people trying to complete achievements for battlepass xp. Way I see it, this idea just gives players another alternative to grinding with the meta decks and still be rewarded even if they have a subpar winrate compared to the best option.
Ultimately, this just gives another alternative to getting xp and because of that I'm 100% for it.
Noooo thank you. I HATE random, and knowing my luck... I'll get warrior, hell I think I'm still only lvl 34 with Warrior, because I don't play Warrior.
Wouldn't this also just be a dumb thing you can do if you want to? The way I see it, all this does is helps some people get through the rewards track faster and encourages some better diversity on the ladder. Even if folks are playing meta decks, someone that just wants to stick to what they enjoy will probably come out with a higher winrate during such an event because people will be piloting decks that they aren't very good at, granting them more XP for the extra wins.
I don't know. Getting to 100 is really the only part that matters and it isn't exactly a hard feat if you play constructed a few days a week.
i would be nice and all, but lets be honest, most of people will keep playing meta decks or the ones they feel more confortable with, and those who try to follow the random class offered will just be smacked by the metta decks if the class is a bad one
So it turns out I don't actually have enough cards to fill a 30 card deck .... I literally cannot play this Brawl, why are core cards not available Blizzard fucking please.
Alright, I just found a fun new feature. It turns out that if you don't have a full deck you can still queue up with less than 30 cards. Jade Idol just got a lot better
Alright, never mind, the game just autofills the rest of your deck with random cards. At least they accounted for that possibility.
I don't like it. It sounds like achievements, the single-player content, and the rewards track - yet another little thing which makes me feel like I'm not playing properly. Another l'il notification trying to push me into playing a certain way, giving me completionist anxiety.
I come to Hearthstone to relax, not to finish everything or be the best. If they're going to implement small events, I'd rather they be silly than competitive. Nozdormu Day, for instance - just a dumb thing that you can do if you want to.
FWIW - Pillager Rogue has been played for years in Wild. Last expansion, VS noted that it began posting positive win-rates (Cutterbutter allows for fairly consistent 30+ damage OTKs as early as turn six.) The new expansion gave the deck more card-draw (the tradeable SI-7 spell.) As far as Sprint goes - the card was buffed in March (it used to cost 7-mana.) Some folks run it, and some don't (Prep wasn't un-nerfed, so the best you can do is a 4-mana, draw 4, but this is often good enough to set up the turn-six kill.)
Currently, HSReplays is tracking the deck with a 52.0% win-rate in 2,800 games played since Stormwind launched. It's a fun Tier 2 deck. Give it a shot, if you like how it sounds . . .
Unfortunately, I do not have a very big collection as I stated in the guide and my previous Questline Warlock deck's. This is purely my theorycraft, but I hope people can play it and improve on the concept, especially since the deck's relatively cheap at 6.6k dust.
Ugh. Usually when people complain about Tavern Brawl, I say it’s meant it be a fun casual mode. It appeals mainly to players who don’t give their opinions on online forums, and that’s ok. Not everything has to be for me.
But then a mode like this comes along. How are those casual players supposed to play this week?
I love his voice more than LoL Veigar, although it's still a pain to understand him lmao. Plus his mech looks like it's wielding Morellonomicon and Rylai's Crystal Scepter! A cool detail.
This expansion appears to be quite fun: I think my break from the game is gonna be over soon.

New Bandle City Spell - Minimorph
This is proably THE funpolice card after Hush in the game.
From a powerlevel perspective this is an easy 5 star card from a fun perspective that's an easy 0/5

Veigar Bandle City Champion Reveal - 8 New Runeterra Cards Revealed
Yeah it's an interesting comparison with Hush. Twice the price for permanent silence.
Comparing to Vengeance is also valid. One mana cheaper, at Burst, for the cost of leaving them with a 3/3. That seems shockingly good.
Definitely not great against some aggro decks tho - probably not good against Lulu/Zed, but maybe feels ok to hit Jinx with it.

This would be great and shake up ladder imo.
