Got to 10/2 not sure if I should try for 12 I got Reno and siamat and quite a good tempo core :/
Definitely worth playing out, especially if you think you have a strong deck. You can always start a run and leave it at 0-0 / 0-2. Not even a question for someone who plays arena regularly, just play out your run, dont worry about it and just start the new one in time.
As someone who does not play arena, can anyone who understands the mode more than I confirm:
It says "To ensure that players have a chance to try out this devilish dual-class deck-building dress-up party, weeks 1 and 2 of this event will award Arena Tickets on login!"
So is the proper way to do this: 1) Start a run today, leave @ 2 losses - 2) Get 1st free ticket tomorrow, leave @ 2 losses - 3) Get 2nd free ticket next week, play it out - 4) Play out the "comped" ticket for today's run whenever.
Is that the correct way to do this to maximize runs one only buying 1 ticket - 4 entries?
You honestly dont even need to do that, if you dont need more SoU packs and want to get few more from the new expansion, since Arena Tickets dont expire, so:
Start a run before the event begins and leave it at x-2 = 1st Arena Ticket (for 1st retired run).
Log into the game during 1st week = 2nd Arena Ticket (free).
Redeem your rewards for retired run (see FAQ to not get confused about this part).
You now have 2 Arena Tickets saved up.
Start a run and leave it at x-2.
This will cost you 1 Arena Ticket.
You now have 1 Arena Ticket saved up.
Log into the game during 2nd week = 3rd Arena Ticket (free).
You now have 2 Arena Tickets saved up.
Log into the game after the event = 4th Arena Ticket (for 2nd retired run)
Redeem your rewards for retired run.
You now have 3 Arena Tickets saved up.
If you want SoU packs (from rewards), feel free to use your Arena Tickets whenever, before the new expansion launches.
If you want 3 extra packs from the new expansion, save your Arena Tickets for now and use them when the new expansion launches.
Hope that was clear enough lol :) Keep in mind, you might need to restart the game to trigger some steps, especially the first log in when the event starts, it might bug out and show you only one of the tickets etc. Always restart the game if you think ur missing some rewards and only then freak out :) But i never had any problems in all these years.
I have a golden mogu cultist, so I've been having a blast running it with innervate, wild growth, zephrys, swipe and elise.
Summoning Ra is fun!
I tried your deck, but made some changes: ramping up is a necessity, but Wild growth is plain worse than Jade Blossom, and Swipe does not pull it's weight, instead cluttering your hand against slower decks (the only decks you have a chance of defeating), which is why I replaced it with Worthy Expedition, a card that is cheaper, and often more versaitalle.
Sounds cool, I'll give it a shot.
Not sure about jade blossom, though. One of the prerequisites of summoning Ra is having an empty board, and having a bunch of little green men on the board might make that trickier. Also, full disclosure - it's not my deck. I nabbed it off a site, possibly this one.
One of the ways is to hold him on phase 1 until you have an OTK. He either only has one C'thun or doesn't have any during that phase (can't remember, either way it won't be too bad). You can do this with Elise with Navigator and Starseeker fairly easily, duplicating buffs to create infinite spells to create infinite Moonfires.
I have beaten all 5 chapters on normal with ease and beaten alle 4 Wings on heroic with Finley, Elise and Brann (no Bosses so far with Reno), so I thought I farmed enough treasures to beat the last boss on heroic. But how on earth do I have a chance against this dude, when he throws 2 C'Thuns with about 60/60 stats 2 turns in a row in my face, one-shoting two of my 4 heroes?
Beside these overbuffed C'Thuns the fight was "ok" so far. I nearly cleared phase 2 and had two heroes left - but as I said, these giant C`Thuns were unbeatable for me and I could see a way to prevent this nonsense. x_X
I definitely will use Flamewaker to stir things up! I have had it with all those quest decks and Aggro Priest. It is time Mage reclaims its rightful position: at tier 1! Be prepared to be finished off by fireballs and ragnarosses! Not to mention the potential of Sorcerer Apprentice icm with a Luna and this card to just gun them all down in one turn.
Or a Flamewalker being followed by a puzzle box? Do these spells count as well?
Flamewaker's condition is "after you cast a spell". That means the player playing a spell card from their hand, which puzzle box or Tortollan Pilgrim don't do.
However, as written, Unseen Saboteur ought to trigger Flamewaker if your opponent plays it against you with ole' walkey on the board.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, for your opponent) they don't count... only the Puzzle Box counts as 1 spell
But flamewalker will definitely be a good addition to mage, though I don't know if it will be enough to bring it back to a competitive level. But one thing is sure: those who love casino mage (like me) will have tons of fun.

Dust every card for Hunter and play a class that is more fun and not such a nuisance?
On the real, If you are using Zul'jin, using cards to support him are a big deal. So Hunter's Pack might be a good idea to double down on since it gives Hunter what it lacks.. cards in hand. Hunter also has one of the best Basic cards sets in the game. Utilize the hell out of those cards, like Kill Command
Got to 10/2 not sure if I should try for 12 I got Reno and siamat and quite a good tempo core :/
You absolutely should carry on. After 7 wins you're guaranteed enough gold for a new arena ticket anyway, but with each subsequent win the prize pool gets a lot more stacked.
At the very worst you go 10-3 and buy a new ticket and concede two games there.
Although, as you said in the article regarding randomness is healthy for the game, it is clearly not for certain parts of the game. Hence, why the discard mechanic is such a failure. It is a core identity of Warlock and yet it is seen little to no play. I truly believe that they should have allowed players to choose their discards.
We can't say for certain that doing so would make discard "op" when there is no way to test it out. You are still losing a card for a powerful value or effect. However, it is unlikely Blizzard will do so. I do hope that Blizzard release more specific discard effects as it is such a wasted and untapped potential of Warlock.
Got to 10/2 not sure if I should try for 12 I got Reno and siamat and quite a good tempo core :/
Definitely go for it! after you hit 7+ wins the reward is garuntee to be at least 150 gold. so complete this one then make a new one and end that run at 2 loses.
The only way you lose is if you don't draw Reno :)
I'd say go for it, that honestly sounds like a 12 win deck to me. Even if you lose, you can always just start another one and play that out while waiting for the event bcs FYI: 7+ wins will always give you back AT LEAST 150 gold!
Got to 10/2 not sure if I should try for 12 I got Reno and siamat and quite a good tempo core :/
I feel like I read somewhere that if you get over 7 wins you should play it out since the rewards are better than the cost of the new ticket? But again I don't play Arena so someone who knows better can confirm.
