Using the brawls as part of the story for expansions is a fantastic idea. Also the general quality and amount of content in the brawls has increased dramatically. When I realised just how much effort had been put into that blackrock mountain brawl a few weeks back I was a little bit in shock that it was a free event. If this is half as good as that was I will be very happy.
I'm really liking these style of semi-frequent minor events. I'm glad Blizzard is going down this route.
Honestly, a brawl where your deck is 30 Zephrys (highlander restriction removed of course) would be AMAZING. It would be like chess. Every game would start roughly the same, but as the turns went on, it would diverge more and more. Both players would be on completely even footing and every choice---from when to play Zephrys vs playing a perfect card to setting up board states to tease certain cards from Zephrys---would be huge. It would be the highest skill version of Hearthstone ever because Zephrys is highly manipulable compared to typical discover.
But... I suspect blizzard is lame and lazy, so it will probably be starting with a few hand. Yawn.
Fingers crossed
Man Zephrys has such a troll face, looking forward to the brawl getting pyroblasted, healed back to 30 and silenced till I bust in laughter
Looking good!
Does the Tombs of Terror free or like sou .
If only there was a way to know ... Oh wait, it is written :
''No pricing has yet been revealed for Tombs of Terror though it should be noted that solo content is usually $20 USD.''
... But reading is hard ^^
Like Dalaran Heist, since there's a pre-order card back.
Literally the Perfect Brawl
Tombs of Terror! If it's as good as the RoS solo content, it should be fun!
Daymn, somehow I was hoping for an alternative hero portrait.
Wow, a Zephrys brawl where every Zephrys you plays makes a perfect play against your rival Zephrys play and go on. Sounds pretty fun xD
I can imagine it being each deck is just 30 Zephrys.
With the name "Three Wishes", they probably give you 3 copies of Zephrys in your hand. Maybe at the start of the game, or perhaps one at a time on turn 2, 5 and 8 or something like that.
That would take like forever...
And the best part is, none of the would actually activate
WIth 30 Zephrys in deck u don't meet the requirement :D
Yeah, that was kind of the joke
"At the start of your turn, discover the perfect card. "
