Wow, Blizzard found out a way to make even brawl absolute cancer.
These two weeks are going to be insufferable.

Naturalize + Coldlight can't deal with minion spamming sadly, it hard counters Innervate shenanigans though.
Edit: Oh god the mirror match is too dumb

why not innervate coldlight that straight up combos
I really think there is pretty much only few different "broken" combos with the Druid Mill being one, Fireball + Ice Block is another. The only counterplay to the broken ones involve Loatheb. Most of the combos result in really fast games either way so at least you are done quick and can try again.
Innvervate + Coldlight is straight up worse than Coldlight + Naturalize in all ways.
Naturalize is 1 mana so you always have a play, even on turn 1.
It will prevent big enemy minions from killing you, thus stopping Innervate + Boom or whatever.
Your opponent ALWAYS draws from Naturalize, even when you kill your own coldlights. So it will also beat Iceblock and the like.
I'm not sure how the Mirror match works, but I'd guess whoever plays a minion first loses?
this brawl, uh.
when I saw 'Mechwarper + Metaltooth / Gorillabot' I thought ''ok, that's probably the most broken combo you could get'', but I'd say 'Iceblock + Forgotten Torch / Fireball' is even worse. can't beat that shit unless you somehow get 30 damage before turn 3 or the mage is unlucky enough to don't draw enough Iceblocks.

You'd be drawing as much as your opponent, the goal is to get them to fatigue faster while not allowing them to create an offense by destroying all of their minions.
I also had some success with Upgrade + Heroic Strike but it can suck if you only draw Heroic in the beginning. I beat an Ice Block Mage with it by constantly popping their block every single turn until they ran out, if they run Forgotten Torch they essentially only do 1 damage a turn because of your armor up.
lol not mulliganing for 3/4 iceblocks
i played a naturalize/CO as iceblock/fireball and they didn't have enough damage to kill me with fatigue. I had like 25hp by the time I started drawing fatigue. I guess the tricky thing will be to not losing too many fireballs to overdraw

I don't think anything can beat Innervate/Loatheb in this brawl. Especially on the coin.
Mechwarper mech leaper would destroy it.

In theory I like this brawl but in practice I end up playing against the exact same decks every game and it gets boring really quick.

I just stumbled on this Brawl, and stumbled into picking Druid + Innervate + Wisps of the Old Gods...
People are quitting after I +2/+2 a full board of 1/1 on turn 3 and I find it hilarious.

I wonder if broken combos would be useful for farming moneyz. If my account weren't tied to other games I'd even consider botting the brawl as I am sure tons of people do right now.
If the average game + search lasts around a minute at a 66.6% winrate that would be 120gph.

Somehow, Freeze Mage managed to be broken even in a world where you can only include two cards in your deck.
Edit: Somebody with more patience than me should run a Kezan Mystic and Forbidden Healing deck until they queue into one of these assholes.

Innervate + YShaarj.
If you manage to summon it on Turn 2, you destroy Mechwarper + Mech Leaper.

Shaman player exposed. You don't think it's ridiculous that a class can put out that many stats by turn 2?

Hah, I was thinking about mechwarper earlier today. I just didn't care enough to try it out. I wasn't sure what the best second card would be though. Maybe some cheap cantrip like shiv or ancestral knowledge. The overload barely matters when you're playing 2/3s for free.
LOL, plus it's not like the rogue deck is favored to win anyway.

I like upgrade and shield block, its funny when you have them running mill and there is no minon to naturalize

They can naturalize their own minions if they really need to. I've never really felt like druid mill was any good though. At least it's just a worse version of mill rogue imo.

Gonna give Innervate + Blood of the Ancient One a shot.

True, but if you give me more upgrades, I will win a millgame because your 2-2s cant catch up with my weapon

Coldlight Oracle + Naturalize is a great Druid combo if you want to have a chance against most deck via fatigue.

Yay, rank 5 in Hearthstone and Duelyst. :-D
My final Hearthstone opponent was an emote spammer. Let's just say I was happy to go down to the rope on the lethal turn before I played Rockbiter on my Doomhammer. ;-)

Well, after facing hunter twice, I am convinced the mode is pure cancer too. Only playing it to get done my 2 mana or less minion spam and you lose on turn 2 against hunter.
