Were past quests ever discoverable in constructed? I started a bit before the RR launch and I don't recall ever getting a quest from a discover a spell card.
Oh you're on next expansion. I've already studied all your techniques, you have no hope of beating me, i'm already five parallel universes ahead of you.
Paladins like buffs and sticky minions to play the buffs on. Essentially, this card is both. Might occasionally see some play in constructed, but I feel like this is primarily an Arena card. I'm not convinced Divine Shield Pally will be a thing either.
It seems to me, that this is one of the stronger Quests because it creates "a solid win condition" without big deck limitations because there are enough good pirates available.
I think, this quest has even the potential to see play in Wild. Back in the days where PW was new and half of the ladder was only PW it was a viable strategy to play nothing on turn 1 or even turn 2 so you can combo a ship with a 1 mana pirate at 3 mana to counter the early game board of you enemy when you were lucky with the ship shots. So maybe even in 2021 it could be possible to wait with your first pirate until turn 2 or 3.
With the quest complete the PW will never run out of gas. Time will tell if the quest or the non quest version of PW will be better - maybe depending of the meta.
With the final reward of the questline needing 4 spaces in your hand. I feel that just aiming to draw as quick as you can isn't the most effective way to play. I would use minions that draw and cast cards to get the most out of the final rewards just my 2 cents. Great write up also
Congrats! To everyone who submitted a deck, well done! This was an outstanding effort by the OOC community, so many of them have fantastic guides, it's a joy to read them!
What's to like about a guide is very personal indeed. These are all a bit too detailed for my taste which makes me lose interest in reading the entire guide. They're still well written guides, just not for me. So congrats to the winners, enjoy your mega bundle! And I definitely had fun participating, so thanks for the event!
While we are on this topic, What about the DAILY quests? Should I keep holding 1 or 2 quests for August 3? Are we getting any special quest or questline tomorrow? If so does that come with a normal quest as well? I want to get through the first part of the track faster. I can't remember how this was handled for the launch of Barrens.
Usually I don't submit decks until I've played a few games with them, but this giveaway was a good reason to push that habit aside. Let's hope the deck doesn't just work in theory.
Omg! Thanks for the shout out! I guess my time as a textbook editor (almost) paid off! Gotta study the winner for tips, and maybe 'll get my first mega bundle next time...
I guess i should give more attention to my guide's style to make it more readable. These guides looks more beautiful when you compare them with mine. Mine is like a text soup. :D
I really enjoyed the creative combo you setup and if Brightwing does end up generating Bolner on that small slice of the RNG pie, easiest rewards track XP! I hope someone ends up making a video of it in action for the sake of hilarity.
Card pack that gives you cards from the current standard rotation.. They're like the Year-specific packs except they apply to the entirety of the Standard pool.
This probably doesn't do anything specific enough to be played in constructed decks as Sparring Partner also hasn't seen play in years, but in Arena this might occasionally come in handy.
As for the 'no more benefit from the reward' part, I'm not quite sure what your getting at. A lot of the time there was still a decent chunk of the deck left to draw, mainly due to Glide, so you are getting some value out of it. On top of this, more often than not there is still a decent amount of card draw, so you can reasonably draw the rest of the deck and hit people fairly hard with Lion's Frenzy. The questline is certainly weird and definitely looks bad at first glance, but I definitely think there is potential, whether its just as a fun pet deck or even a tiered deck.

Were past quests ever discoverable in constructed? I started a bit before the RR launch and I don't recall ever getting a quest from a discover a spell card.
Odd Priest - Full Anti-Aggro
The gameplan vs control is gold
New Neutral Minion - Deeprun Engineer
Darkmoon Tonk, Claw Machine, Carousel Gryphon, Darkmoon Dirigible, and Efficient Octo-bot are all good to great Arena cards and Deeprun Engineer has a pretty good chance of discovering one of them. I think that will make this card a solid Arena card as well. Outside of Arena though, this has no chance of ever getting played.

I'm gonna be honest, knowing that I made it into the narrow selection gives me enough of an ego boost anyways.
New Neutral Minion - Stockades Guard
This probably doesn't do anything specific enough to be played in constructed decks as Sparring Partner also hasn't seen play in years, but in Arena this might occasionally come in handy.

what is a standard pack (new Reward Track) ?
