Reckful's paladin secrets deck is hilarious.
So you can have more than 3 secrets?
I've gotten 2 of these out of the couple packs I opened. Hell, they're the only higher than rare cards I got. I haven't used them yet.
Bwahaha. We pretty much called that one, didn't we? Fencing Coach I mean.
I don't know man, after we reviewed that card I felt I was a bit harsh on it.
Evaluating it mathematically it's technically a 1 mana 2/2 that you play later. That's about what what you want from a 1 drop minion really stats wise (usually 1 drops are like 2/1 with some added effect, this would be like the Yeti of 1 drops). Then it can enable faster uses of powerful inspire effects like Paeltress. Certainly if you want to use Paeltress in a deck then you probably need to use Fencing Coach as well.
Though from what I have seen... the Inpsire cards that are good don't need another card to combo with them. Stuff like Silverhand Regent, Murloc Knight and Thunderbuff Valiant are good on their own. These cards also have decent stats on the bodies for the cost.

Pretty harsh to call it bad this early in the expansion imo. Even patron warrior was a joke 2 days after brm launched.
That's way too many secrets for my liking.Here's the deck
Yeah, I'd imagine some dream would be fencing coach, garrison commander into turn 9 paletress for a double legendary spawn but it seems hard to set up. I still think the card has potential but it'll need a way more optimized list.

The best pack I've ever gotten in Hearthstone =D
Only if you weren't going to have spare mana that turn anyway, which is often the case in the late game where you're really looking to utilize its effect anyways. A 1 mana 2/2 is very insubstantial in the late game, you need your cards to do more than that. So you're just introducing clunkiness into your deck.
Yeah I only run two avenge two comp, one off everything else cept eye

? Nobody thinks blizzard can't make good cards. Everybody just knows they would rather focus on making money instead.
Some cards are good, some cards are interesting but situational... and others are just obviously bad.
Like Demonfuse and Ancient Watchman.
I hope he plays against a hunter with flare, now that will be hilarious! Luck and Load into flare, can happen.
Nah, that's silly conspiracy theory bullshit. Obviously Blizzard wants to make money, any company would, but they also want to make a great game.
And they have made a great game.

Having fun with my Discard Zoo deck.
Here's the deck
I'm glad someone else realizes Mysterious Challenger is basically a 6 mana Dr. Boom. People bitch saying you have to put a bunch of other secrets in your deck, but thats a benefit not a drawback. Though I'm surprised he isn't running an Divine Favors.
I actually think it may be worth it to put in 2 Repentance too, it really does make a lot of value. You need 8 to 9 Secrets to make the deck work IMO. The funny thing is that Eye for an Eye is still trash, I have seen no one even try to run it.
Ok, I'm just blind.
I was messing with that some. I think it's an expansion or two away, but with more cards that make discarding less of a punishment, that could be a rad archetype.

Unless you get paid to stream, I have no idea. I did it once (for the cardback), never again
No Mad Scientists?This started as an attempt at control Hunter and slowly became a Lock and Load deck. I bet it could be made more consistent, but it seems to win way more than it ought to.
Anyone else make something similar? What have your results been?
Already a below average Hunter deck.
I had theorcrafted a mid-range LnL Hunter deck but I didn't pickup any LnLs from my packs to try and out.
I don't think Control Hunter will ever conceivably be a thing. I think a deck like this is closer to what a LnL Hunter will end up turning into, within a few cards.

Okay, a scenario that just occurred against a Warlock
I was a warrior with justicar trueheart that had stabilized board and was at 30+ armor with hero power + shield block
Enemy Warlock plays wrathguard
I had a shieldslam that was reduced to 0 cost by thaurissan
The Warlock was at 22 health, so it wasn't a 30-0, but it could have been. This means it's not just a 30-to-0 OTK, but a 30-to-0 OTK for zero mana.

Why would he do that? LOL!
Yeqh seriously what a idiot haha.
Because people are playing around with new cards, presumably.
Regardless, it was amusing that it was possible: a 0 mana OTK from 30 to 0.
Do you prefer aggressive style or control style?
Aggressive: tempo mage with flamewakers and, if you have him, Rhonin
Control: Dragon Mage or Freeze Mage. I suspect Freeze Mage will be very strong if token / mid rage board control decks continue to rise.

You called it bullshit and then agreed...
Blizzard could release a full set of amazing cards now and that would be that. Obviously they don't do so, so they release some crap as well.
That doesn't mean they don't know cards are crap, they just need to keep working along a long term plan.
So, let's talk about decks we're glad exist if only so they counter specific archetypes that should exist but must be kept in check.
What just made me think of this is how Freeze Mage is incredibly strong against midrange decks that focus on flooding the board with sticky minions. Zoo was an example of that, but now totem shaman and this new Murloc Paladin would qualify as well. Freeze Mage may be annoying to you, but its existence helps keep the power of these types of decks in check.
Patron Warrior is a strong counter to all types of token decks, be it Druid token or face paladin (not necessarily tokens, but crappy minions as well) or totem shaman.
Any other decks which provide an important hard counter to specific archetypes or styles?

That Priest deck that runs Deathlords and shit to shut down Aggro. Don't really see that very high in the rankings though
