God damn this one was hard.  At least the first time around you got a pack just for playing.

Yeah it took me a few games to get the pack. I like that they included new cards, but my Mage partners keep using the Arcane Blasts at 4dmg. If you wait for even 1 jungle moonkin it's so much more amazing. Or Mirror Entity into Jungle Moonkin. The synergy is once again very cool in this brawl, but the coop thing is weird with random terrible players. Your best bet is to wait a few days. Usually by then only people who know what they are doing are playing the brawl.

Won first time as mage.  New cards, same strategy.  Build you board, never attack, wait until you can do a huge amount of damage per turn, keep each other healed.

Mirror Entity should be used on Lorewalker Cho, then give each other Healing Touches, Arcane Blasts, and maybe Wild Growth.  Once we had 8 dmg Arcane Blasts, it was pretty easy.  Druid is token, so use VT + Cenarius + Savage Roar for a big turn, Mage will eventually fill hand with Fireballs, Torches, and maybe a Pyroblast if needed.

It's fun once, but I can't see myself playing it again.

Won both time I played. Both time I was the Druid. The real problem with this brawl is the limitation of only 2 classes. More interesting would be various pairs of classes. More challenging would be the same pre-built decks but the players pick a class before entering. As it is, it seems stupidly easy unless your cooperator is an idiot.

Meh.  I do like it but I think you've been lucky, there's a lot of variance.

I played druid twice and drew no heal through either game while getting double zapped in the face constantly.  The bomb salvos seemed to like my face too.  I really don't think the druid deck has enough heals in it.

Well, I got a Malygos out of my pack!  I want to slide him into my Mage deck and see what shenanigans I can perpetrate...

Malygos has seen play in fringe decks and he's a lot of fun. I recommend keeping him, even if he isn't the greatest legend. It's too satisfying when you pull of a crazy turn with him :P

Wait, what?  Ugh that's stupid.  One thing I've never understood is why Wrath can't go face.

I assume that this was a decision made fairly early on when attempting to balance classes.  If it can go face as well as potentially draw it becomes strictly better than similarly priced removal for other classes (eg. Shiv).

I've recently crafted a Malygos (and cast it 1 times so far), if that helps at all. I do have lot of extra dust lying around tho (around 5000 atm), so that is a thing to consider too.

But Malygos is competative, gets a good deck every once in a while, and is super fun.

This seems to be backed up by the fact that Wrath could target face at one point during closed beta: http://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/Wrath#Patch_changes

I wish they'd tune down how often legendaries are offered in this brawl. Playing against multi-Tirion Paladins is not fun times.

My opponents keep getting Rafaams.  It's irksome.

I have no idea what the hell I'm doing with this one.  Though having my opponent play Tirion on T2 probably didn't help me determine if my deck was useful.

I just put together a Miracle Rogue (with Alexstrasza, North Sea Kraken and some damage spells as the win con since I don't have Malygos and the Leeroy thing obviously doesn't work here). Based on the first game I played, it seems absolutely broken, but dropping an Alexstrasza T1 was good times.
