Although draws just count as a loss for both players so there's no point in doing it.

I'm pretty sure draws count as nither a win or a loss.

No, a draw counts as a draw. If you draw in arena no one gets a win or a loss point. It's as if the game didn't happen.

Yeah, you get the "Defeat" screen at the end but it effectively counts as a non-game for most purposes.

Cool, I didn't know that. I've only gotten it once (from Hellfire) and that was a casual game so I assumed the defeat screen meant that I lost.

Although, there is still no reason to do it in TB, only in Arena and Ranked.

Unless you consider not losing a game valuable on its own.

In Tavern it's pretty meaningless, but in Arena or Ranked if you think there's a good chance you'll lose if you don't take the draw it's very worth it.

Well, winning a game in Tavern Brawl is quite maningless as well.

So this is KT versus Rafaam  Brawl.

Is anyone else discovering that KT is ludicrously OP?

The best reason to lynch Haddock is the meltdown we get to witness on the wagon runup. I mean, we should totally wagon him every day just for the lulz.

Quite.  Rafaam has neither early game nor the steam to go to fatigue.  Getting a cheaper Legendary to hand is not nearly as powerful as Resurrecting every turn.

I got 3 or 4 times Raffam, KT 0 times. I won on my last try.

I hate brawls like these, they make no sense, you can't really have any coherent strategy - you don't really know about either decks, cards are randomly unbalanced, you can't really expect anything or play around anthing.(unless you dedicate time to it, and I am not going to do that on some random hodge poge).

Kel is so much freaking stronger. I played 3 games as Raffam and managed to win one only when my opponents opening hand was so bad he couldn't play until turn 4 and then on top of that had terrible minions resurrection luck. (A lot of Spectral Spiders were resurrected iirc). I have not lost a game as Kel.

ugh. I got the tavern brawl quest just in time for this. Maybe I'll save it for next Tavern brawl.

EDIT: I think I might've won my first game as Rafaam if my opponent hadn't counterspelled my flamestrike.
...and I lost my first game as Kel. I don't see that he's much (if any) stronger.

He is for sure. I lost my 1st game as Kel too, but it was close. Then the second game was no contest. Noth is insane, especially when I got him duplicated.

Well, I like seeing the bosses imagined as cards. It's a shame they have to be associated with such a lopsided Brawl.

It's not such a bad brawl for a few games at least. (probably more fun for me than most people because I got Kel in about 6/8 games.) In my last game, I had two Thaddeuses in play.

He's 6/8 what?  Whatever I did, it was unintentional (and therefore twice as awesome).

Ket'Thuzad is a Minion with 6 attack and 8 health, which is short-handed to 6/8 stats.

oh. I should've guessed that. The only time I've heard of him is from this Tavern Brawl though, so I've never seen his card (at least not that I remember).

That isn't too surprising. On rare occasion you might come across him during gameplay. He's sort of iconic as many of us here experienced the Curse of Naxxramas Adventure where Kel'Thuzad was the end boss (just like Rafaam is the end boss of the League of Explorers adventure).

He actually saw a lot of play when Naxx came out, and survived a while in GvG in slower Druid lists. He's very unique as a card and a lot of fun. It's a shame he's rotating out because he'd be so fun in a slow meta.
