The Naughty List Chalkboard
General Information
- Earn a card pack from the latest expansion for winning your first game this week.
- It’s a brand new Brawl!
- This is a PvP Brawl.
- The Brawl has a custom format (curated pool of cards).
- It’s a Constructed Brawl – you need to pick a Hero and build your own deck.
- The idea is that your opponent gets the deck you built, while you get the deck your opponent built. So instead of trying to make it as strong as possible, you want to make it as weak as possible in terms of mana curve, win conditions and so on.
- To compensate for the fact that builds are very weak and to prevent “just give your opponent a deck full of expensive cards” strategies (which would be very boring), both players start at 10 mana and draw 2 card per turn. So you have to get a bit more creative in your bad deck building.
apparently the curated card pool created a meta where most decks aim at making your opponent mill himself.
most decks have prize vendor and coldlight oracle, which work symmetrical.
to break the symmetry, there are cards like cornelius roame, octosari and hemet jungle hunter that bring your opponent closer to fatigue, while giant albatross and weasel tunneler add extra cards to your own deck to get you one step away from your own fatigue.
eerie statue is a complete blank, and given that so many extra cards are drawn also the ancient shade looks tempting.
mage has so many draw spells (plus the 3/1 elemental) and grand archivist which forces you to play them so that it has become the best class for milling
Best brawl they’ve had in a while. Made you think deck building wise, fun to play, quite even.
