Those aggro druids didn’t work at all… Funny that so many players brought it.
Good work Frozen (my pick!) and congrats Tom!
Fr0zeeeennnn!!!!… I chose him as champ, more free packs… he almost made round of 8…
Me too! So disappointed
Pfft thank god Frozen did not win pretentious sob lost.
Where are actual results please ? Its not actualized on this page ? Come on….
It’s been updated now.
Hearthstone only has 7 classes in 2018! haHAA
Every year there is usually 2 classes that falls short
Really only 4, as the other 3 classes only had 6 decks *total*.
Talk about some balance right there with overwhelmingly Druid, Priest and Warlock decks. Plus no Warrior and Shaman decks.
Shaman was the best deck for a almost an entire year and tier 1 or top tier 2 after. It has enough sins to pay for. And Warrior is even worse.
But before that Shaman was bad
Doomguards in 2018 haha
Control warlock is better against cube lock and he is teching his deck to be even better against the mirror matchup. With his setup he plans on banning priest because his deck is bad against raza priest with this setup.
why so many token aggro druids?
Lack of better options. It beats all the other bad stuff like paladin, hunter and jades.
That said I like the bring jades ban lock strategy better.
Because it beats RazaPriest and ControlWarlock, before they make their strong plays. (On curve: Kazakus, Raza, DragonFirePotion, and Possesed Lackey cheats out a 9 mana card)
Did Muzzy forget doomguards in his cube lock or this is new meta?
He’s banning priest so he just needs to beat agro.
Cubes don’t really help to beat aggro. And neither does 1 Gnomeferatu. And neither does cutting 1 Defile.
His list is so greedy (Umbra, Taldaram, Nzoth, double Faceless) but in a weird way, it’s kind of a head scratcher. I’m really rooting for him to draw both Voidlords, have the weapon in bottom 5 of his deck and get punished. But knowing how good at HS he is he’s gonna draw his gimmicks perfectly, and all the casters are gonna go gagga about how amazing and next level Muzzy is.
I mean, it’s obvious he’s targetting Jade druid with that line up – aggro druid and tempo rogue generally do well vs it, this “endless Voidlord value” control warlock has Geist (although that endless value seems a bit excessive and somewhat highrolly), he brought dragon version of Razakus and that deck has Geist too.
Unlucky for him only Kolento in his group plays Jades.
Putting geist in raza priest isn’t targeting jade though. It’s just giving yourself an outside chance to sweep it.
The only people that are going to leave your priest up are the ones running jades.
He replaced a defile with doomsayer for the flexibility because he cut the coils to set up defile when he added geist but yea he’s definitely hedging against jade.
Found the butthurt EU player
