Hearthstone |OT6| C'THUN for President! Why pick the lesser evil?

Thinking about it, tempo mage with Yogg-saron might be a thing. You're already playing a shit load of spells anyway.
Problem is that Yogg might just lose you the game.
Eh plenty of cards can end up being dead, I think it's a decent card to have if your guaranteed to lose and play it anyway.

Stupid question, but when will the expansion be playable exactly?

"Wow..."
I played Reno Shadow Priest vs. a Mill Druid today...into fatigue...and lost by one...
I'll never get that time back.

the other question is if he retains his buffs after he dies and then revives. If he comes back as a 6/6 then makes the card even worse

I microwave steaks.
the worst part is i already converted all my decks to standard, so I'm handicapping myself. Just one more win ;_;
So what do we think will be the best combos for evolve?
These to me are the top ones. Thing from Below is more like a Master of evolution candidate but still
And I'd love to see these get some play but I fear they would be too slow or ineffective, I just want Ilidan in one deck

This is something I came up with just now. I'm not sure how you really deal with C'Thun with this deck. Is Hogger or another piece of removal better? I think it's safe to say that tomorrow will be 70% C'Thun decks and 20% Aggro.
Some guy on Hearthpwn put a list with Yogg-Saron together. Not sure I like it, but it's definitely something to consider.

c'thun / twin emperor
master of evolution / thing from below

C'Thun buffs are not tied to the card but the player. That's why Thoughtsteal, Entomb and similar card copy mechanics are useless. Your C'Thun(s) (wherever it is) will retain its buffs throughout the game.
I broke out the cancer to try and get to at least Rank 10 tonight and played Secret Paladin, which I normally avoid like the fucking plague. The only matchups I got all night were Control Warrior, Control Priest, and other Secret Paladins. Didn't win any of the heavy control matchups because they were all full-boat fatigue decks with nothing but answers and healing in their decks. Good riddance to this meta. GvG and Naxx can suck my dick.
Not if I'm playing C'thun Priest /kappa
Yes, sorry.
I could see running it in Warrior where it would be great for mirror matches.
Well, that was harrowing. Almost want to start a thread in off-topic.
There I was watching Kripp stream yet another Rogue arena run (with headphones on), when I start to smell burning rubber. I get up, hear the hallway alarms going off and look ouside to a giant wall of black smoke. Couldn't see three feet in front of me. I live on the 13th floor of a 14 story building. I grabbed my coat and my cat and ran down the stairs with about 100 other people who live here, sat in the freezing damp parking lot watching firefighters run hoses and fans into the building.
Worst part? This is the third time in two months this building has had a fire. There's probably an arsonist in the building.

Someone on Reddit posted calculations showing 8.14% chance (in standard). Sounds plausible.
It's why Onyxia will never feel like a good Evolve combo to me. Putting aside Doomsayer, 2 mana slot is the likeliest pool of minions in the game where you're going to be really unhappy with what you get (especially when you're rolling like 7 of them) versus literally just having a board full of 1/1s and an 8/8.

He probably will. But then like 6 of all the other legendaries.
Nah, dude crafts like half of them golden every time.
Got kinda salty about opening Hemet's on GvG launch day.
Did some theorycrafting on Hearthpwn:
WotOG Midrange Beast Hunter
WotOG Ramp C'thun Druid
WotOG Control C'thun Warrior
WotOG Tempo Mage (with Yogg-Saron)
WotOG Evolve Shaman
I tried tinkering with C'thun Rogue but it felt kinda awkward. This was the result though:
WotOG Midrange C'thun Rogue
WotOG Midrange Beast Hunter
WotOG Ramp C'thun Druid
WotOG Control C'thun Warrior
WotOG Tempo Mage (with Yogg-Saron)
WotOG Evolve Shaman

the hearthstone wiki says when auchenai is on board, spell damage affects stuff like flash heal. Deck is probably gonna suck but its gonna be so satisfying to win

Kripp streaming 16 hours later and pumping out 2 YouTube videos a day this week. That's some dedication and work.
Dude probably want to fund an marriage.
Patch goes live in like 10 hours I think? Based on poppedcollar69's post one page back.
Well then, I was spectating someone and he managed to throw a game against a Freeze Mage who played into lethal (dude was playing Tempo Mage).

- Dude had frostbolt and fireball in hand, Boom, 1 boom bot and like 2 other 1 attack minion on board.
- Freeze mage had an acolyte of pain on board, then decides to play Doomsayer + Mad Scientist.
- All he had to do was to get the mage to 1, then doomsayer would've killed the opponent dude to boom bot's deathrattle. Instead he kills the doomsayer with Boom and proceeds to concede.

One Darnassus doesn't matter at turn 10 though. 6 Darnassus would be a problem though.

oh yea I forgot about that
I'm thinking something along the lines of this:
WotOG OTK Dragon Priest
Emperor tick on Velens + Embrace the Shadow + (2 Mind Blast + 1 Flash Heal) or (2 Flash Heal + 1 Mind Blast) = 30 dmg
Emperor tick on Maly = 10 dmg per mindblast, 10 per flash heal if Auchenai remains on board from previous turns.

Really wanted to spend this weekend and grab Rank 5 before the OG meta but got rekt by the nerfs coming in early. I have a lot of cards and can build many decks, but Face Hunter was my comfort food. Couldn't feed on the secret paladins like I usually do so I had to scramble and play other stuff. Play some Priest, run into only Warriors. Secret Pally, 50/50 matchups vs other Secret Pallys. Play some Warlock, now Mages. Starting from 8 and stalled out at 8. Blah.
Oh well, rest in peace old friend. You brought me 65% winrate and many golden cards.
