It looks like it, yeah. Haven’t noticed when uploading them. They’re both high Legend Chinese players so it’s probably a popular build on that server 🙂

The idea is that you cycle through your deck and build a big board presence with Everything Must Go (preferably two of them), Phoenixes and your small minions and then buff it with Entropic Continuity.

It plays similarly to non-Incindius versions of Cycle Rogue we had in the past, the goal is to overwhelm your opponent with a huge board that they can’t answer so early.

I faced a similar deck in the Brawl and it worked really well, I lost because they had a huge board I couldn’t deal with on Turn 4.

But I agree that it’s probably not the strongest decks of the bunch and you probably need to have a lot of Cycle Rogue experience to play it well.

Thanks for sharing, I added it to the post!

Thanks! I added it to the post in the original form you played since that’s what you got 6-0 with, but I appreciate the card replacement suggestions.

If you share a code I can feature it in the post! 🙂

Yeah, I can see why it might be useful. I’m actively looking for those decks so I know more or less which one is from when, but if someone just stumbled upon this post on Day 4 for example then it might be confusing which ones are Day 1 experimentations and which ones are most established builds.

Right now you can still go by the publish date on the website, but you need to go to the deck’s page since it doesn’t display when I embed it in another post…

I’ll probably go back to dating them next expansion then.

Thanks for the idea. The problem is that shortly after launch I’m updating the post so often that we would end up with like 10+ updates in the first day so it would get even more confusing 😀

I always had issues with that classification because it wasn’t very clear. What does “day 1” mean? Until midnight on the expansion launch day? Which time zone? Maybe the first 24 hours? If someone plays a deck since lanuch but posts it on day 2, where should I put it? And so on, and so on.

In the end it was pretty random anyway so I decided to get rid of it… But if people prefer to have it then I can do it again next expansion.

I noticed it too, I think it was already corrected in the game. I’m gonna retake the screenshot and update it later.

I added the explanation to “More Information” section!

Yes, Shatter is completely out of place. It definitely doesn’t mean the Mage spell that destroys frozen minions.

The current theory is that it’s a keyword from the future – and this is just a teaser/joke, given that this expansion is about time travel.

And thank you, fixed it. The second Time Machine should be Time Skipper 🙂

I like the idea, but if that was the case, it would say “Shatter” not “Split” on Divergence (and other similar cards).

It would make zero sense to use the keyword on Pyromancer but not on Divergence.

Animation speed is a big issue, true. But I’ve seen some speculations that the animation is there to “mask” the work going on in the client to get the game state back to where it was, so getting rid of it might be a bit difficult :/

I wouldn’t call it a worse Discover. Yes, some of the cards revealed so far could have been replaced by Discover, but the mechanic has other uses too.

For example, a minion that attacks a random enemy minion – Rewinding can yield a different result and you can’t replace it with a Discover.

Something that deals damage like Ragnaros (we actually got one new Dragon that does it) – it’s not like Discover.

Or a card casting multiple random spells like Yogg – rewind could yield a completely different outcome.

Not saying that it’s the best mechanic ever, but I would wait until all cards are revealed before judging it. There are some clever ways to use it, let’s see what Blizzard does though.

Thanks, I didn’t realize. I’ll take a look at them!

Probably yes, it seems like Arena season now last 2 patch cycles (so about 2 months).

We had one season in Patch 33.0, another in 33.4, so the next one will probably be in Patch 34.0 (about a week before expansion’s launch, so late October).

Thanks, fixed 🙂

Did you open “Hearthstone” from the main menu (you know, the button you normally click to play Standard/Wild)? For me they showed up after I went there.

That’s the thing. On HSReplay there are zero stats for a deck like that (the sample size has to be too low). If you lower sample size to minimum on HSGuru, you have a single build with 83 matches (and 43% win rate). And it doesn’t even run Eggbasher, a card made specifically to play in “Egg” decks, haha.

It seems that Warrior just can’t get out Khelos quickly enough for this kind of build to be viable right now. So they instead slot the card into slower Taunt shell and then revive Khelos with Hydration Station in the late game.

You’re correct, sorry about that.
