I wonder if Yogg counts for the Mage quest.

Hearthstone |OT8| Elise's Extremely Irresponsible Field Trip To Un'Goro

It's probably just luck, but I had better results than usual from the tournament reward packs. Thanks to America, I got 4 packs! That resulted in 2 gold commons, 2 epics, and a few things I didn't yet have from Gadgetzan.
I'm now at 55 dino packs and 2000 coins. I'm pumped about the expansion.

It won't. The spells count as being cast by Yogg.
Volcanosaur is available for everyone to use right now, if anyone didn't know.
It got me a victory. After some misplays near the end of a game, I was 7 HP and about to lose against 2 high health taunts. I had a Tundra Rhino on the board, drew Volcanosaur at the last minute, and played for a double adapt with charge.
I got windfury + poison to kill both big taunts, allowing my remaining minions to deal lethal damage.

I just got a daily quest to use my hero power 30 times. How long has that been in the game? Never seen it before.
I got the Tiny Bubbles quest to play a bunch of divine shield minions. I'd never seen that one either.

As someone that really likes handlock and their reno variants I am hopeful that Trump's Handlock prediction comes true.

Can't wait for conceal to be gone.
It will linger on in minimal form with Adapt-to-stealth, I suppose.
I can't wait for Kazakus Reno to be gone.
I can't figure out a way to make Quest Priest work. The deathrattle minions are all understatted, and Corrupted Healbot heals the enemy, so I don't know how you actually kill the opponent. N'Zoth is necessary, but there's a chance it won't pull out the good minions like Cairne. Even then, most AOE will take care of the N'Zoth minions. You'd have to rely too much on the cards you pull from Shifting Shade or the new 1/1/1. Taunt warrior seems like a disastrous matchup, as does Jade druid.
Could something like Bittertide Hydra (5 Mana 8/8) be the key to winning?

I said it once and I'll say it again: Time for Velen + double Mind Blast, baby!
Neither does anyone else I belive.
In standard anyway, in wild you chances are much better since N'Zoth Priest is an actual thing there.

In wild you have an abundance of options that enable you to go nzoth kazakus quest priest
I wanted to do that deck, but I keep wondering what's my win condition on that deck?
7 deathrattles are too much.
That's 11 mana, and Emperor is gone :/
Get that new two drop and hope that it sticks a turn. Or tech in a burgle bully.
That sounds really awesome.
Sounds about right. I guess it depends on how good taunt warrior is.
Yeah, I have a hard time seeing a new control deck replacing reno.
Not that reno is all that good for the game either, since the best way to play against it is to not play around anything.

What's so surprising about that, Reno didn't make for particularly interesting gameplay the deck restriction was the only fun thing about him. He didn't somehow make mindless aggro palatable, nor less played.
People get bored of anything.
Taunt warrior is curve deck too
sounds right tbh
most quest will ended up in meme deck
Are there any cards you consider a must craft? Probably Umbra?
About a half hour after the servers melt down.
To be honest?
2 copy of Blazecaller is the safest craft investment that I currently see right now, I'm not even sure for Kalimos
A Macaw is a type of parrot. You actually picked the one Beast that can talk.

It's been at 10am Pacific/1pm Atlantic every time for the last few sets, for the US region at least.

Played a couple of games with the new card, better than I expected.
Easily. The 3 mana heal taunt is crippling against aggro.
That 2/4 taunt that also heals will surely help. It's a prett amazing card and curve right into 3/5 that can get taunt plus bubble ,which is almost a sluge belcher.
You can kind of think about an divine shield minion as "x/1 minion, deathrattle summon a x/y minion".
This of course ignores hard removal and synergies, so it's slighly worse, but it terms of stats it works.

Brann + Volcanosaur is a fun novelty.
Galvadon + Brann is much better.
Tried this earlier and got +3 health, +1+1, taunt and poisonous.
I have always had good win rate against PW with my decks (even burgle rogue). I will never miss that awful card. I've always called it a crutch and made this game even more reliant on top decking

Has anyone received packs for the Bahamas tournament on the NA Server?
I keep reading about people receiving those packs and a heroic tavern brawl chest, but I haven't gotten either on my end.
Thanks for clarifying.

Pretty sure I got mine yesterday.
Has anyone looked at the number and quality of taunts and other control tools being added and removed to make any smart analysis on how it's going to affect aggro/zoo?
In general I feel like there's just been way less discussion about what is getting rotated out compared to when nax and gvg left.

Time Warp idea in a Reno Mage deck:
1) Get Time Warp.
2) Play Arch-Thief Rafaam.
3) Choose Zombies.
4) Play Thaurissan and make sure it hits Inkmaster Solia + Time Warp.
5) Play Inkmaster Solia, then Zombies for free, then Time Warp.
6) 23 damage without any burn spells on your next turn.
Anyone else have any Time Warp OTK combos they've thought of?

I can't remember who I picked. (I definitely picked someone, since I received 1 pack for participating a few weeks ago). I'm guessing they didn't win any games, so I got no additional packs.
What about the heroic tavern brawl chest? Was that only given to those who didn't participate in it or something?
That's a worse combo than just arcane giants echo or arcane giants Alex. Neither of those two require ticks.
