Brawliseum City Chalkboard

General Information

  • This Brawl has a custom rewards structure. Learn more about it in a section below!
  • Every player gets one entry for free, but further entries cost 300 Gold / 400 Runestones ($4) / 2 Tavern Tickets.
  • It’s a cyclic Brawl we see before every expansion (assuming Blizzard decides to keep it around).
  • It’s a PvP Brawl.
  • The Brawl has a custom format. Play until 6 wins or 3 loses – the more you win, the better your rewards become.
  • It’s a build-your-own deck Brawl. You can use cards from the following expansions: Core Set, Event Set, The Lost City of Un’Goro, Into the Emerald Dream (and Embers of the World Tree mini-set).
  • Additionally, the patch has a few card bans and a few cards were added to the pool outside of those sets (to support Quests).
  • Players will be able to open their Un’Goro packs as soon as the Brawl begins. This includes Pre-Purchase packs, but also free ones you get from other sources (such as Twitch drops).
  • You can’t buy any extra Un’Goro packs with Gold or craft individual cards from the expansion. You’re limited to the cards you open.
  • The Brawl has no MMR, matchmaking is based solely on your current score.

Rewards Structure

Unlike Heroic Tavern Brawl, Pre-Release Brawl has a much more friendly reward structure for an average player. Since the reward curve is way more flat, winning just a couple of games (or even going 0-3) is not going to hurt your wallet that much. On the other hand, there’s not THAT much to win – even going all the way to 6 wins nets you a single extra card pack (and a random Common + Rare card). Pro players can’t exactly “score big” like they can in Heroic Brawliseum, but we should still see plenty of them.

The average win rate of 3-3 will give you two Un’Goro packs, one Emerald Dream pack, and one random Un’Goro Common card. Depending on your collection and the need for Emerald Dream card packs, it’s either a slight loss or a break-even point. However, even if you have no need for Emerald Dream card packs, getting a 2-1 split is not the end of the world.

One more thing to note is that the Brawl has no MMR. You’re matched based only on your score (for example, if you’re at 2-2, the game will try to match you with another 2-2 player). This kind of system is, of course, positive for the high-ranked players and negative for the low-ranked ones. It also means that there’s some extra luck involved during matchmaking – if you queue your first match at 0-0 you might meet a Bronze player or a top Legend player.

All of that said, given that every player gets one free entry AND that the latest event has two Tavern Tickets among the rewards, I still recommend people give it a try. And if you end up finding the Brawl fun, playing it a couple more times shouldn’t drain your budget even if you don’t end up scoring very well.

6 Wins Pre-Release Brawl Deck Lists

This Brawl is a bit unique given that you can’t exactly copy every deck 1 to 1. Players will have limited access to The Lost City of Un’Goro cards, so everyone’s collection will look different, and you can’t craft cards to fill the gaps. You will often have to look for some card replacements.

Given that this Brawl only goes up to 6 wins, it might be a bit harder to judge the deck’s success when compared to Brawls that go up to 12 wins. But there’s not much we can do other than just sharing 6 wins builds – a clear pattern of strongest builds should emerge after a few days anyway.

Latest decks are on the top. I’ll keep adding new builds over the course of the Brawl.
