I don't play hs that frequently atm (I'm enjoying Heroes 3 HotA a lot more), but here are some pics I would like to share with you guys:
Against Murloc Shaman
I don't remember much from that game, since it took place a couple of days ago. But I remember, that I struggled a lot back then - the opponent had a really aggressive start and put me dangerously low on health, before I managed to exhaust them and to heal myself with a Greater Healing Potion.
The reason why I found that match to be funny was the fact, that I almost died by the opponent's stupid murlocs and at the end, after I stabilized, I gave them a taste of their own medicine. Unfortunately for me, the shaman player hit the concede button, before I could kill them with Bloodlust. If only I could!
Against Pocket Galaxy Value Mage
Picture this - the opponent managed to cast Luna's Pocket Galaxy on turn 5. And...
... I don't know what to say...
about that, except...
...bless the patch, which allowed copying cost reduced cards to be played with their new cost. You don't know how excited I was, when the mage opponent cast that spell on turn 5, while I had a Thoughtsteal in hand and drew Crystalline Oracles and Twilight's Call later on. I was like a child in a sweetshop. My first stolen minion was Medivh, the Guardian and in the first pic I top-decked Mind Control just when the mage played The Lich King.
It was very satisfying to turn the opponent's deck against them and, luckily for me, they were a fighter. They stood almost throughout the entire match and managed to deal with my BS, which made the game even more enjoyable for me. So thank you, kind stranger.
Sometimes the deck whiffs badly, but when you can get it right, and you plan/pilot correctly, it can beat nearly anything. Which is surprising for an off-meta Priest in Wild.

As for myself in this thread, today I met a Warlock playing an infinite SN1P-SN4P turn. Full board of big bodies on turn 7 or something. I guess he was already tasting the smell of overpowering victory against me.
I had a quest "Win 3 games as Priest", so obviously I chose to play my beloved Thief deck and goofed around on rank 5. I won some matches, lost others, but the games I had were exciting. For example I laughed when I met this mill rogue, who wasn't aware of my deck's main strategy:
I also met a Reno Priest, who decided to give up on their burn strategy and go for the memes:
I lost that game, because I couldn't draw my deathrattle minions fast enough and my quest got completed a turn too late, but it was still enjoyable seeing my opponent wanting to goof around as well. So thanks, Frau "Braut".
I would like to apologize, if I became annoying with my constant spams here, but I want to share some pics with you guys:
So there was I facing a rogue on the ladder. The cards in the mulligan stage were pretty bad, so I removed the quest in favour for something better. This decision was somewhat relevant, because I ended up getting 2x Mass Hysterias and Zola the Gorgon. Fast forward to turn 8 (I played Sylvanas Windrunner earlier and resurrected both her and a Dead Ringer with Twilight's Call) - I traded off both minions and got to steal the opponent's EVIL Miscreant. Since I didn't draw a taunt from my [Hearthstone Card (Death ringer) Not Found] and I was dangerously low on health, I decided to take my chances on the kobold, so I copied it with Zola the Gorgon (1st pic). And spoiler, this little fella helped me win the game.
F*cking hell, why do I always have such interesting matches! So imagine a duel between a Thief Priest and a Reno Mage. Normally my deck crushes other control ones and once I acquired a copy of Frost Lich Jaina from a Crystalline Oracle on turn 3 and played her first, I thought the game was over.
Well, not quite. You see, before I played the DK, my opponent wanted to meme around and cast Deck of Wonders. Fast forward to the moment, when I had only 2 cards in my deck - the opponent's turn began and their last Scroll of Wonder cast Devour Mind. Just in time to see what I had.
Do you know what those two cards were? Let me show you:
So as you can see, fatigue was out of the question. The following turns consisted of both players playing the 7-drop and stealing it or other minions with Entomb. The grind was a hard one, but eventually I thrived at the end. I waited, until the opponent cast their last Kazakus potion and killed them with an N'zoth board.
So yesterday I got 80 gold from someone trying to complete battle a friend, went on an arena run, draft a fun deck, got a good result, got 2 epics and legendaries in my pack. and I didn't have any of them.
Played Wild for the first time today! I built a Jade Druid deck (don't hate me, it's the only deck I could piece together with my limited wild collection) and I've been having fun with it. I haven't faced any Big Priests yet, so...
I did face this Reno Warlock though, who managed to get a Dead Man's Hand (forgot how), played it, and THEN played Reno Jackson like a doofus. I've forgotten how prone to misplays some players can be in Rank 25.
I planned to make a win-rate section for my deck and I downloaded the deck tracker. I am still in the "lower ranks" and I won't play competitive today anymore, but here is a replay I want to share with you:
I didn't think to screenshot it, but I had an amazing fast game earlier. I was playing beast hunter and queued against mech hunter, I was on coin.
Opponent played mecharoo and \I did have springpaw but that obviously wouldn't do anything really meaningful so I took my chances and coined hyena hoping it would stick. Which it did. Opponent just heropowered and hit face for his t2 and I took advantage trading my springpaw+lynx into his mecharooroo and hit face for 6. Turn 3 opp plays ursatron, I get huffer from ac and trade to hit face for 8 with hyena. Turn 4 opp can't do much more than play some card and hp, I dire frenzy my hyena, hit face for 11 and I hate myself a lot right now. My opp does too and concedes at 5 health.
Today's goal was to make a warrior that can bomb and tempo out all the typical bad matchups of the class (mage, rogue, etc)
While testing, I queued into a token druid, then proceeded to curve out and push him off the board. Now, I know warrior is supposed to have a good matchup vs token druid, but I won this game with minion combat, not brawls and warpaths. The opponent's hand wasn't so bad either; he only missed his turn 1 and used full mana for the next few turns. If I can push board-centric spam decks off the board with this list, I can probably beat up some mages easily with the same tempo. There's no better feeling than getting the validation that your little deck tweaks did work
The icing on the cake was when I topdecked my Azalina near the end. His hand was only a couple buff cards with no minions to use them on because I killed all of them. Typical token druid problems. The following turn, I killed him with his own savage roar
TL;DR: was testing tempo warrior to beat mages and rogues; tempoed out so hard that I out token druided a token druid

I hope mech Paladins never learn that you shouldn't magnetise all your mechs when playing against secret Hunter...
Shuffle 70 Scroll of Wonder to my deck in one turn and win the game (opponent rage quit)? EZ
https://hsreplay.net/replay/hekUyuHVgk5wZVx37dKSJZ
Funny facts learned while playing this deck:
deck has limit of 60 cards
If your opponent wants to Psychic Scream your board when your deck has 60 cards, your board just dies.
hsreplay is not able to show what spells are cast by Scroll of Wonder and by Yogg-Saron, Hope's End :(
I do what I must, when I must. Know this well.
Oh wow, you have a 17/23 mech, you say? It would be a shame if someone polymorphed it...
I've decided to try my hand at the Wild format, so I bought Toki's wild bundle and I got a clown fiesta of legendaries. I got free C'Thun (because I accidentally dusted all my pre-Un'goro cards), Zola the Gorgon, Wickerflame Burnbristle, Mukla, Tyrant of the Vale, The Boogeymonster, and Fjola Lightbane. The last three are useless, but I can't complain that much over this haul.
full board of Lucentbarks. Still 0% chance to win the game.

Sometimes the deck whiffs badly, but when you can get it right, and you plan/pilot correctly, it can beat nearly anything. Which is surprising for an off-meta Priest in Wild.

I had Mass Dispel in hand, plus Wild Pyromancer comboes ready...
I had a quest "Win 3 games as Priest", so obviously I chose to play my beloved Thief deck and goofed around on rank 5. I won some matches, lost others, but the games I had were exciting. For example I laughed when I met this mill rogue, who wasn't aware of my deck's main strategy:
I also met a Reno Priest, who decided to give up on their burn strategy and go for the memes:
(they played Seance on my Archbishop Benedictus and soon after the 7-drop before drawing Raza the Chained)
I lost that game, because I couldn't draw my deathrattle minions fast enough and my quest got completed a turn too late, but it was still enjoyable seeing my opponent wanting to goof around as well. So thanks, Frau "Braut".

On the second picture the rogue player cast Vanish (from their Ethereal Lackey) and gave me more shots on spamming lackeys myself. I milled all of my [Hearthstone Card (convicing infiltrator) Not Found]s and the Sludge Belcher came a bit too late, but the funny thing is that I didn't need them. The rogue minion gave me Goblin Lackeys, two Ethereal Lackeys for Holy Fire and Eternal Servitude, Faceless Lackey for Totem Golem and some other trash. At the end, I just found my Greater Healing Potion and sealed the deal.
Boy, I can imagine how annoyed my opponent was losing to such BS. And I want to believe, that I surprised them with the late quest cast.
F*cking hell, why do I always have such interesting matches! So imagine a duel between a Thief Priest and a Reno Mage. Normally my deck crushes other control ones and once I acquired a copy of Frost Lich Jaina from a Crystalline Oracle on turn 3 and played her first, I thought the game was over.

What a great way to reach rank 4. ;P
So yesterday I got 80 gold from someone trying to complete battle a friend, went on an arena run, draft a fun deck, got a good result, got 2 epics and legendaries in my pack. and I didn't have any of them.
Both 0/1's from Sindragosa gave me King Krush. What are the chances?
worst community ever
Murloc Shaman is disgusting....
And I love it.... 😊
Cocked, locked and ready to rock...
Every time I win with Pogo Rogue vs Hunter, Zoolock or Token Druid, THAT's a feeling!
The pleasure is mine.
My last standard decks: nothing special right now.
Played Wild for the first time today! I built a Jade Druid deck (don't hate me, it's the only deck I could piece together with my limited wild collection) and I've been having fun with it. I haven't faced any Big Priests yet, so...

And I even tried to play Kel'Thuzad at the end for extra BM, but the opponent conceded. :C
