    Can you confirm is this a two or three turn combo? Use the two brewmasters (one or two turns?), then drop the horsemen, hero power, pixie, and hero power again? Is three turns really viable, given that you're not doing much in terms of tempo?

    How do you use Fencing Coach?

    The tricky part is getting Brann to stick... :)

    Looks like I need to craft Raza the Chained so I can try this list! How does this fare in ranked play?

    I STILL don't have Mal'Ganis. I should really craft him one of these days...

    I started playing HS during Mean Streets of Gadgetzan. I made my first (non-serious) foray into Wild ranked play in the Kobolds & Catacombs era. The list I am sharing below was the wild deck that I played with the most at that time, and probably ever in Wild. I don't have (and certainly didn't have then) a complete collection, so this list is by no means the definitive Renolock list. It was just kind of a jumbled list of the most powerful cards (by my novice estimation) in Warlock. I had bought Naxxramus, BRM, and LOE, so I had access to those legendaries, and I crafted the The Lich King because it was ubiquitous in those days, at least in Standard. I also crafted Bloodreaver Gul'dan because he was an undeniably great card. 

    Obviously this wasn't an optimal list then, and certainly not now, given all the great Highlander support that came along in Saviors of Uldum like Dragonqueen Alexstrasza or Zephrys the Great. But it was a ton of fun, and won me a few games. I imagine it would get stomped on in today's even faster wild meta. This list was run before secret and quest mage were running rampant like they do now (no Cloud Prince or Ray of Frost etc., and Pirate warrior was not quite as oppressively fast as it is now.

    Thanks for confirming! I know where I can find what I am looking for, just wanted to make sure it wasn’t even closer at hand

    Yes. It was a name and art change. I think it happened at the same time that Succubus changed to Felstalker.

    Please forgive me if there's a thread on this already - but is there a page on THIS site with easy to grab avatar sized images of popular Hearthstone characters and heroes? I know that other sites have similar pages where you can grab a jpg and update your avatar. Just wondering if there's one here that I missed. Thanks!

    I do this too - delay the acceptance until the potential troll has cooled down.

    I also occasionally add an opponent to say GG or to give them praise for using a creative deck that I've never seen before on ladder. I am not a deck creator type, so all of my decks are net decks or community creations.

    Thanks! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't casting too wide a net.

    For 17:

    Part of the clue is a card's text (not flavor, but actually on the card).

    This was one of my favorite clues!

    Look up the history of card changes in Hearthstone. The card you're looking for had a relatively recent name change

    Thanks everyone for the hints! I have felt like a right idiot during most of this. I have two HS clues left: #1 and #16. One question for both: are both of the solutions "collectible" cards pages?

    Thank you so much for the feedback and details on those cards. I will have to mull it over. I have enough dust to craft 5 or 6 legendaries, but I tend to be really hesitant to pull the trigger. Thanks again!

    This was fun - took me forever to find Liadrin on mine. Those backwards diagonals...

    I remember when this was released, and I wondered how long it would take before I ran into someone with it in the game. I needn’t have worried- it happened in my third game on ladder that day! And then it was everywhere for a while. I’d love to see an article some day from blizzard on how fast it spread. Not a good time for that right now, obviously

    I completely agree! This has been one of my favorites since it came out

    Question: how important are Sunkeeper Tarim And Maiev Shadowsong?

    They’re the only ones I don’t have, and I would love to try this deck
