http://www.heartharena.com/arena-run/2w7b7e for my warlock run.

I ended up just blown completely out of fuel vs the warlock in the mirror. His deck had a bit heavier top-end and we'd managed somehow to be sitting with both of us about to run out of cards and all my answers gone.

Oh my gosh.  I moused over my join date anniversay icon on mafiascum earlier in this browser window, then closed that tab and came over here.  Saw chairs' post and is like, hey, let's check out his warlock deck

I mouse over his Knife Juggler (just because Knife Juggler is a good card and that makes me wanna mouse over it.) and a dropbox off the mouseover says "Happy Scumday!"

I'm like wtf this knife juggler knows everything about my life look at his evil mischievous eyes he is going to bring chairs' Azure Drake to my house and Implosion me for 10 damage

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah so creepy

Rough draft, I think you did pretty well all things considered. You were forced to take a lot of mediocre and outright bad cards with the draft and still turned it into a 4 win run.

Would you guys be interested if I started streaming this stuff on twitch or hitbox and maybe posting each game to youtube?

EDIT: Clearly not as like a "Look I'm amazing", but more of just an opportunity for me to both discuss my thought processes and also to get opportunities for critique.

I'd be interested in watching a stream if I happen to notice it when it's on. Not so interested in watching it from YouTube.

I will watch your games only if I'm allowed to tear into them.

I've been told I don't have any healthy ways of watching other people play.

Conviction is still a virtue.

I might watch a stream if I'm free it, but I wouldn't watch a saved YouTube video.

I would watch live if it was on when I was just watching a stream anyways. If you make a twitch account I'll follow you. Probably wouldn't watch after the fact, not really that exciting to watch an old stream usually.

I feel dirty.

Turn 6 Ball of spiders.
Turn 7 2x Hyena, Kill Command. I actually get King Crush from Spiders and even have a coin to cast him next turn.
Turn 8 plays Muster so I Unleash instead. I get 2 14/x hyenas or something like that.

Turns out Ball of Spiders is preeeetty good.

Arena has taught me how much I want to play a warlock with imp-losion and knife juggler and more imp-losion-esque enablers.

Haven't had the chance to play Ball of Spiders yet, but a Muster that draws 3 random Beast cards seems like lots of value. It is Hunter though, so you usually want more tempo instead.

As for which pick I did, I haven't done the pick yet, I was genuinely asking a question. It's between Gruul and Millhouse, and Gruul is the choice that's obvious, but I was really tempted to pick Millhouse. (This is also how I stockpile gold - when you only play 0.5-0.7 arena runs per day, you can stockpile lots of daily quest gold to become a quasi-infinite arena player.)

I think Millhouse is still pretty bad. For every game he wins you you'll lose one because of him. In Arena I am not happy with a 3 win run, but ymmv. Gruul will be a lot more reliable.

The number of Warriors encountered in the run was 2 higher than the average expected number for an 11 game run.

I'm gonna call him on this as well. I think they've removed Warrior as an option completely. I've been sitting on two quests to win with Warrior for almost a week. 10+ runs and I haven't even had the option to pick Warrior. So there's no way he's playing against one. My sample size is definitely large enough to make broad, sweeping statements about the game and every other users experience.

I actually lost against a Warrior on Arena a few days ago. I don't remember the details, but it was a pretty close game after his only minion survived the Brawl which also killed 4 of my minions.

My last three runs were Shaman oddly enough. All ended 5-3. Now I'm running a Mage with Dr. Boom & Foe Reaver.
