+Hahahahaaahaahaa not true. even tho reno didnt have a big impact most of the time, it still showed the gameplay of a reno deck, which is quite unique with only one of each card.
Right, not satisfied with anything & eager to point out a misplay just to troll & avoid the kudos. Congratulations. (You DID notice he patiently played against an unfavourable-odds Reno deck AND won against a famous pro? EVEN after missing lethal? Or are you blind?)
That last druid waiting with his combo til the rope is almost burned down.. I always wonder if they do that for BM. But it wastes their own time, too, so what's the point?
+super llam Thing is you don't need to count, every hearthstone player that has ever played druid before ought to know it does 14 damage. (unless they are new) I guess they spend 60 seconds trying to figure out if 14 is greater than the health the opponent have.
What deck do you guys prefer to ladder with right now? Do you join the infinite waves of aggro to rush more games or play the ever solid control to ensure a higher winrate?
+Jean-Baptiste Margoto Toshley is a better stat line and the cost is better, but the missiles are better than the spare parts. I don't think it's meant solely for Antonidas fuel. Just my guess.
+Seth Harbert yeah i agree but 8 mana is a lot in this meta so i was just wondering. Also with boom and rafaam you have enough targets for bgh to not care i guess
just have a question to anyone that can enlighten is water elemental still the better pick as a 4 mana drop compared to the dalaran champion where you gain spell power per hero power used? a 3, 6 compared to 3, 5
+Danny Camacho Yes, because funnily enough mage is a class that, unless you're running a lot of cheap burn (frost lance combos), spell power doesn't actually do a lot for, given how mana-expensive its AoEs are. Water Elemental's freeze effect is generally just stronger and buys you tempo.
If your gonna craft a legend, get dr boom or sylvanas windrunner. If you have those and want to make a Mage legend, archmage is better. To the rhonin crafting thing, he could be worth it, but there are many more legendaries that are better, so I'd get those first. You can google a crafting list if you want to, it would help
FlapJack67 I have every legend for this list except Rhonin, but there is lots of legends that i dont have. But I think I have most of the good ones that are used often.
5:30 Who else went all "No, Strife, NOOO" when he attacked face with the Blood Knight with the secret up? Cuz I was all like, people do tech in one eye for an eye, and ice block doesn't stop damage that counts as self inflicted....Oh nooooooo
Don't know why he didn't ping flame cannon water elemental instead of Dr 7 that last fight, he would then have had the chance to freeze the druids face and not die to FoN combo.
That takes 8 mana, he only had 7 the turn he played dr boom. Even if he could do that, it's that would be playing to survive rather than playing to win. In this situation, it's probably better to create the strongest board possible and try to win ASAP in the off chance opponent doesn't already have combo.
+skadami334 but it's only 14 damage on an empty board, and that's not what makes druid boring. what makes druid boring is the lack of cards it has to make viable decks, since right now it's pretty much just aggro druid that's present, and the very occasional control.
vol 16 damage from 2 cards is not broken but its really good. When you've played since closed beta and nothing has changed in that class no other viable decks other than force savage Id say druid is a boring class. All the other classes evolve with the expansions but druid which always relies on those 2 cards.
+guidao 12 Not all that lucky, honestly. Strifecro took a hell of a long time to realize that it wasn't a Face Hunter, and got punished pretty hard for it.
Recently found your channel Strife, loving the daily videos! Every morning I sip on my coffee whilst watching :)
+Fruitloaf xo Totally like me, haha. It's great isn't it? :)
+Fruitloaf xo
Haha! I totally do the same thing.
me too haha
+Fruitloaf xo It's the best way to start the day!!
haha yeah boys!
ROFL that Blood Knight. Jeweled Scarab pretty nice card.
+Landy Perdigon Although really didn't show us the reno deck. ...
+Hahahahaaahaahaa um, yeah. do you expect every game to go to fatigue?
+Hahahahaaahaahaa not true. even tho reno didnt have a big impact most of the time, it still showed the gameplay of a reno deck, which is quite unique with only one of each card.
+Landy Perdigon then later on: 'i guess the only thing that saves me is ice block' -> Discovers ice block
Respect to the Hunter that focused on trading. That's such a rare sight. Well done...
+bloodySunday77 "using nox voice"
what? he's trading? wtf is going on here
+bloodySunday77 Yeah, I especially respected him when he missed lethal at around 20:00
Right, not satisfied with anything & eager to point out a misplay just to troll & avoid the kudos. Congratulations. (You DID notice he patiently played against an unfavourable-odds Reno deck AND won against a famous pro? EVEN after missing lethal? Or are you blind?)
+bloodySunday77 Midrange hunter, and midrange decks in general, is favored against reno decks.
+tweekin out Except it wasn't Midrange Hunter, but Hybrid Hunter.
That last druid waiting with his combo til the rope is almost burned down.. I always wonder if they do that for BM. But it wastes their own time, too, so what's the point?
+MagicLaura to tilt an opponent they are probably never gonna see again, thats just the scummiest thing to do.
+MagicLaura It makes no sense. Playing aggro to climb fast. Expending time making BM.
+super llam Thing is you don't need to count, every hearthstone player that has ever played druid before ought to know it does 14 damage. (unless they are new) I guess they spend 60 seconds trying to figure out if 14 is greater than the health the opponent have.
+ymhayuociotlc Or..... OR! superlIam was making a joke and responding to it means you dont have any humor? :]
Claes Petersson Sorry for responding to a comment, won't happen again.
Anyone noticed that in the decklist animated armor and ethereal conjurer have their icons in the wrong place?
What deck do you guys prefer to ladder with right now? Do you join the infinite waves of aggro to rush more games or play the ever solid control to ensure a higher winrate?
+Constantine Varelas I've never been able to bring myself to play aggro, I just like big minions too much.
+Constantine Varelas Climbing with combo druid to kill both.
I'm playing renolock and handlock this season.
+Constantine Varelas nothing beats aggro for climbing, but i cry after every win.
+Constantine Varelas fun decks on rank 15-17 before mid-season climb start
that first game was actually amazing!
I love checking out the thumbnails on the videos to see what Strifey is cosplaying as
Why would you not just ping the knife juggler? ;-;
Interesting deck. Reno is making waves.
What I can use instead of Rhonin
Are there any replacements for Rhonin?
Is there any replacement for Rhonin ?
weird that in his deck list animated armour and ethereal conjurer, have there pictures reversed
Why Animated Armor and Eternal Conjuer have swapped pics?
@Strifecro Why would you play rhonin instead of Toshley which is bgh-proof and come sooner?
+Jean-Baptiste Margoto Toshley is a better stat line and the cost is better, but the missiles are better than the spare parts. I don't think it's meant solely for Antonidas fuel. Just my guess.
+Seth Harbert yeah i agree but 8 mana is a lot in this meta so i was just wondering. Also with boom and rafaam you have enough targets for bgh to not care i guess
Try echo instead of animated armor or something! Echo reno the dream :D
+Danchovies We're gonna be rich... rich... rich... rich...
and duplicate and brewmasters. infinite healing!
+Danchovies i run echo and duplicate in reno mage since duplicating reno and echoing him is just the best :D
just have a question to anyone that can enlighten is water elemental still the better pick as a 4 mana drop compared to the dalaran champion where you gain spell power per hero power used? a 3, 6 compared to 3, 5
+Danny Camacho Yes, because funnily enough mage is a class that, unless you're running a lot of cheap burn (frost lance combos), spell power doesn't actually do a lot for, given how mana-expensive its AoEs are. Water Elemental's freeze effect is generally just stronger and buys you tempo.
SleeplessReuben yea that does make a lot of sense actually cool thank you for the response.
+Danny Camacho not to mention the 1 hp makes a big difference. not as much as 4 to 5, but still a lot.
any replacements for rhonin?
Is there any good replacment for Rhonin or would he be worth crafting? I only have dust for one legend right now.
If your gonna craft a legend, get dr boom or sylvanas windrunner. If you have those and want to make a Mage legend, archmage is better. To the rhonin crafting thing, he could be worth it, but there are many more legendaries that are better, so I'd get those first. You can google a crafting list if you want to, it would help
+Poifix I think, you can put in Ragnaros, but also you should replace Antonidas, beacuse you have no much cheap spell for him to produce a fireballs
FlapJack67
I have every legend for this list except Rhonin, but there is lots of legends that i dont have. But I think I have most of the good ones that are used often.
FlapJack67
And if Rhonin is used in many mage decks, he would be worth crafting?
+Poifix yeah RAG BABY
Can I add the torch?
Any possible replacement for Rhonin? Maybe Justicar or Sylvanas?
+Máté Molnár Maybe something faster? I feel this deck to be a bit too slow.
+Máté Molnár rag
+Máté Molnár Justicar isn't very good with Mage. Probably Rag would be a good replacement.

and remember: always play around that jeweled scarab into value knight!
i will for sure! love tour channel
Animated Armor and Ethereal Conjurer have the wrong picture in the Decklist Oo
5:30 Who else went all "No, Strife, NOOO" when he attacked face with the Blood Knight with the secret up? Cuz I was all like, people do tech in one eye for an eye, and ice block doesn't stop damage that counts as self inflicted....Oh nooooooo
Gotta love these guys who rope turns and then force/savage combo like it was the hardest decision of their lives xD..........
That is one BLOODY KNIGHT.
first game vs paladin u should check if the secret is "eye for an eye"
replace for rhonin?
Ragnarok ?
Deathwing? for ultra late game?
+Arthur Soultech think you mean the fire lord ragnaros as opposed to the norse apocalypse
Animated armor and ethereal conjures deck list icons are swapped... Just sayin
+Charlie Harris I was wondering about that. I thought I was crazy.
Hi! rly love ure videos
love these grinder mages
Don't know why he didn't ping flame cannon water elemental instead of Dr 7 that last fight, he would then have had the chance to freeze the druids face and not die to FoN combo.
That takes 8 mana, he only had 7 the turn he played dr boom. Even if he could do that, it's that would be playing to survive rather than playing to win. In this situation, it's probably better to create the strongest board possible and try to win ASAP in the off chance opponent doesn't already have combo.
Thumbnail looks epic 👍
how does he go from being Legend in one vid, then all of a sudden rank 15?!
New season
+ucdlin The ladder resets at the start of every month.
That Blood Knight tho...
Why isn't he playing a bloodmage thalnos? it seems to me like a decent card in this deck
Blizzard really needs to do something with force savage it makes druid such a boring class.
+skadami334 amen, brother
because its there burst and its not like its broken
+skadami334 but it's only 14 damage on an empty board, and that's not what makes druid boring. what makes druid boring is the lack of cards it has to make viable decks, since right now it's pretty much just aggro druid that's present, and the very occasional control.

16 damage from 2 cards is not broken but its really good. When you've played since closed beta and nothing has changed in that class no other viable decks other than force savage Id say druid is a boring class. All the other classes evolve with the expansions but druid which always relies on those 2 cards.
+skadami334 if it aint broke dont change it and if druid is boring for some people well thats why theres nine classes
that bloco Knight tho
blood*
+Rafael Melo corretor automático neh?
my favourite HS player
Rather confused as to why StrifeCro didn't ping the knife juggler instead... RNG cannot be trusted :(
Bloodknight value
That hunter was good and lucky
+guidao 12 Not all that lucky, honestly. Strifecro took a hell of a long time to realize that it wasn't a Face Hunter, and got punished pretty hard for it.
not so good, he miss lethal at 20:05 "5 from loatheb, 5 from KC, 3 from weapon and 3 from quick shot"
man u are best !!!
I hate Force of Nature/Savage Roar combo. You can go from winning the game to a game over. How the hell is that fun?
Ending on another loss lol...
rope into combo, so good kappa
Cronin
doubt he has combo... druid immediately combos
#skillz
You are cute as fuck❤️
This deck is rubbish
Compared to what?
