But just so I make sure I understand, does the combo require killing off an Oblivitron (so you can trigger it via Nine Lives) and then playing it again so you can activate it with Play Dead? But then it looks like a TTK as you need Oblivitron to stick for a turn so you can drop Necromechanic (4) + Nine Lives (3) + Play Dead (1) + Hero Power the next turn. Am I reading things correctly?
If you can drop the Galvanizers on your Mechwarpers and at least 1 Clockwork Automaton, the warpers would be 0-cost and you could get the Automaton down to 1-cost (or zero if you get another Galvanizer/Warper via Stitched Tracker or Zola). Then if you're able to Jepetto the Faceless Manipulators or the remaining Automaton you could play the remaining one of those three at its normal cost and still have enough mana left over to hero power. Though in retrospect this may be more difficult than the Oblivitron strategy ;D
Sounds doable! That's a deck idea to experiment with.. Careful with mechwarpers though- board space could be an issue.
The current one was inspired by a friend opening Oblivitron and saying it's useless though so that's where I'm heading rn..
Good find on galvanizers- they'd make things way easier.
Stitched Strackers are good way to get more automatons.. unreliable but good for curve..
Jepetto hitting the Oblivitron would be the dream but we need an alternative path.
Ahh, I hear ya, I try to complete my Hunter collection each expansion and Oblivitron is by far the legendary I've gotten the least use out of in recent memory :(
In thinking about your original combo, I just wanted to throw out Carnivorous Cube as another way to get copies of Automaton or as a way to improve your chances of getting Oblivitron to stick for a turn. Corpse Widow is also another possibility for reducing the cost of Oblivitron and it synergizes nicely with the Cube too (both as a cube target and as a cost reduction for cubing Oblivitron - can drop all 3 on Turn 10 if you're able to discount Oblivitron with 2 Galvanizers earlier).
Good luck with the build and let us know if you settle on something fun!
15. 15 games lost in a row. It has become funny at this point. I got quickly into rank 3 this month. Now i keep losing at 0-Star rank 5.
This is statistically allmost impossible... Before you rage, i know this game is not rigged and i certainly stopped playing well down the road but still ... This is so fucking unlikely to happen!
Not even mad at this point, i feel like i witnessed something unique and special :‘
To my understanding, it‘s one for the future expansion. You will not recieve the card right away and they said something about a reveal on blizzcon if i remember correctly.
If this card would be a Marin the Fox 2.0, the promo is a hughe scam imo. There is a big difference between a regular golden leggy and a golden Marin. The first is unlocked content or in game value, the second purely cosmetic. On top of that, you don’t even know what cosmetic you are buying.
I mean, i don’t blame blizzard for giving away cosmetics with blizzcon tickets but promoting this as a full value golden legendary is wrong
Very good article. I sometimes kept score in a spreadsheet how the matchups were and what went good and bad, but most of the time I did not analyze it afterwards to make the necessary changes. I just tried another deck if I was getting tired of my current deck. But I see that really analyzing the performance and trying to fix the bad stuff can make a difference. It is easier to blame a result on bad play or bad luck then to really think about the deck itself.
Thief rogue is really bad in the current meta. Card generation is just too random. Early aggro decks can overwhelm you early, while slower decks will eventually run you out of resources.
With quest warrior, you're just better playing control. I'd love to say "After Boom rotates, it'll find a place in the meta", but a lot of the rush package along with Sul'thaze is rotating too. Blizzard will have to give warrior multi-attack per turn weapons in the next 2 expansions for quest warrior to be a thing.
--- not sure if this is allowed - if not one of the Admins can delete this post :) - this is the Blacklist from HP - maybe this could be added to the Starting 80G Trading Thread - at least this way we know some scammers :)
Hi there. I was just wondering 2 things, since you are guaranteed to get a golden legendary by purchasing the Blizzcon'19 Virtual ticket:
1. Is this Legendary guaranteed from SoU exp?
2. If yes to 1. - if I have all the legendaries from that exp, I can dust one of them and then I will get that one, but in golden, right?
Thanks a lot for your replies and have a great day and a weekend!
Most likely this will be a new legendary from the new set, like it was Marine the Fox from Kobolds and Katacombs - everybode will get a regular one, Blizzcon will get a golden one
Yes just tried with this battletag, and indeed he did the exact same thing despite I was polite, and simply asked for proof of quest before me going first.
Can post the screenshot if it's helpful and not against site rules (hopefully this post itself is not either).
I note this user is listed on HP's scammers page also. I would recommend checking this page even if using the OOC thread.
It's a shame there are people like this. Once I went second and internet went down before I completed my quest with other guy after we'd already done his. I immediately contacted him via PM using another device to explain and reassure him he'd be getting the quest as soon as Internet went back up which I did within the hour. He was fine about it, but I was mortified he'd think I was scamming him.
Everyone wants to have fun in the game, theres no point being here if it's not; but not everyone wants a competitive game, I only play on the ladder long enough to get my 5 wins and get to 20 or 15 depending which alt character i'm using. (I do have a lot of alts)
To be competitive you'd have to sink some money to get the legendaries you want as you said, but as a fun player making decks with what I have and earn is by far the most fun aspect.
Witch's cauldron was by far the MOST crafted epic by me on my alts :) I wasnt playing around halloween last year so unfortunately I did miss out on the gold ones.
Since I play on casual for most of the time, the hidden win/loss rate usually gives me a decent game; something I do have a chance at a win for whatever quest I might need to win for.
Actually, I think the first pick may offer both targetable and non-targetable spells, and only if you pick a targetable spell the second pool will offer only non-targetable spells.
Now you feel pain!
he gets his deathrattle from a battlecry, so he wouldn't be summoned by shadow essence.
edit: Im just a dumbass and got the card confused with another.
1/6th of the time it works every time.
Deck i had a lot of fun with, only legend that REALLY matters is shrirvallah, but don't craft shit for tavern brawls.
Meme OTK idea needs suggestions
Ahh, I hear ya, I try to complete my Hunter collection each expansion and Oblivitron is by far the legendary I've gotten the least use out of in recent memory :(
A build I tried for a bit was to combine it with Flark's Boom-Zooka and a bunch of deathrattle mechs like Mechanical Whelp, Sneed's Old Shredder, Piloted Shredder, and Spider Bomb. However, the Boom-Zooka was just better when I opened the deck to all types of deathrattles or went with the big beast + Revenge of the Wild package.
In thinking about your original combo, I just wanted to throw out Carnivorous Cube as another way to get copies of Automaton or as a way to improve your chances of getting Oblivitron to stick for a turn. Corpse Widow is also another possibility for reducing the cost of Oblivitron and it synergizes nicely with the Cube too (both as a cube target and as a cost reduction for cubing Oblivitron - can drop all 3 on Turn 10 if you're able to discount Oblivitron with 2 Galvanizers earlier).
