Kripp played this game live on stream about 15 days ago (on 9/5/2024). It seems the game starts at around 03:23:00 in the Twitch VOD. Check the video description for the link!
I'm somewhat ok at chess. The first 10+ moves of a higher level game are typically memorized moves from both sides. This is called the opening. It's essentially a conversation deciding what kind of game of chess they will be playing once the real thinking starts.
It’s so systematic, what made this video so good is he completely flipped the script by changing every bit of the plan 1 turn after getting the lesser trinket. Most players just stick with undead and go the reborn route and just hope to be lethal with attack scaling, then get into tier 6 and boost health. He full on ran lightfang perfectly for this game and just put on a masterclass. With how you described it with chess is exactly how I would also explain it.
A small disagreement. If a trinket gives you a card, it HAS TO cost at least 3 gold. But other than that, 100% agree- trinkets should cost (at most) 2(5)
Considering the massive power of some trinkets and that they can't charge you realistically over 6-10 gold, no. Just no. I should not be paying 1/2 to 1/3 the cost of chess set to get "a card" The power to cost ratio on trinkets is high. Chess set is realistically often worth several turns worth of gold in raw value, for the instance above. Now if everything got reduced, that still expands the matter to "a card" should be worth like 0 gold if chess set is worth "at most" (5)
@kirinashia567 I'm glad you brought up "Chess Set" as it's a perfect illustration of what I mean. Chess Set should say: SOC: Summon a plain copy of your leftmost minion. And it should cost 5 gold, since you "get" a card and that card is pickable.
The lightfang trinket should at least give you a Drakkari or maybe even an all tribe drakkari but that could be too broken, but everything is better than this hot garbage
I got an idea. Maybe Blizzard keeps pushing Beasts to be strong because from a programmer perspective, it's really cool. Some high up programmer built it and forcing everyone to play it because the functions are very impressive, even if it's shit for the game 🤪🤪
personally im getting sick and tired of them making hotfix changes so often without even warning anyone.... how am i supposed to learn a strategy when the entire joke in front of me is constantly random
That and he’s been talking about that bazaar game as well. I love kripp but man he’s been playing this game for so long and it’s been in such a terrible state for a while
there must be a better game for you. Imagine playing a game when thinking 8/11ths of it is procedural...not to mention all the complaints I hear from you like bugs and lag in this game.
Atrocious plays from Kripp in the last three turns. Bro, you're against undead, no one cares about your Lightfang scaling, drop the drakkari, get as many tech cards/undead as you can. At least you got Sin'dorei but that also was a turn too late. You made it waaaay harder than it needed to be.
I dont get it. Does kripp play on 10K+ mmr and everyone is playing leapfrogger? Cuz on 7k mmr, on eu server, ive only seen anyone play the frog once maybe twice. And i play daily, multiple games per day, yet i still dont see any frogs. But kripp keeps complaining about them, on almost every video.
It comes in waves for me. I'll go like 10 games in a row no beasts or they get knocked out early then I'll hit like 3 or 4 in a row just everyone playing leapfrogger dominating. Feels bad but probably not the most toxic
3:20 But do you HAVE TO buy that 9 gold trinket, arent there always options that cost only couple of gold, or EVEN FREE ? Is it not a CHOICE to buy the high cost ones ? So how come trinkets are " skipping your turn " where you cannot made decisions WHEN ALL OF IT, IS YOUR DECISION ?!

The ol' "I can't my shit together so lightfang it and pray no one else can either" game.
Damn, close by the end there.
Cool, good pickup with the remove taunt etc (cant remember its name) card at the end there
I had a lightfang win the other day. Super fun
I have also won with Menagerie build, like 2 or 3 times... But I'm only ~5500 rating

What kind of Chess conversation comes down when you move Pawn to E4 followed by King to E2? Because I feel like it'd be an interesting one.
Either psychological warfare or announcing you really like Hikaru

One could argue that such a trinket should cost at least 1 gold which is the sale value of the minion.
Considering the massive power of some trinkets and that they can't charge you realistically over 6-10 gold, no.
Just no.

Chess Set should say:
SOC: Summon a plain copy of your leftmost minion.
And it should cost 5 gold, since you "get" a card and that card is pickable.
@@roehouse2000 chess set as you describe it is worth nothing. Plain copy is inting your first attack slot most of the time.
@kirinashia567 It's worth 5 gold.
An extra bird, frog, 3 lil quillboar, etc. during combat would be well worth it.
Enjoy the video, everyone!

Kripp is a 7k mmr player.
@@chesstechie it just shows that this trinket sucks at every lvl of game, thus should be buffed
Simple, make it lesser trinket instead of greater and it will be decent trinket
@@Anciantice it already was, they changed it for a reason
@@Ancianticeas a lesser trinket it was a auto win for a couple of rounds
Maaaan… I miss anomalies. That was the best mechanics.
I don't think I have ever gotten anything other than first place with lightfang. I have played it only once but still 🤷♂️
Default health to 40. Going out in round 10 / 11 when you've just got your build together to some mid range garbage is way too common.
Also, screw pirate tokens and Titus builds 😂
Challenge: find a Kripp's HS BG video where he doesn't say "mid range"
More like play HS above 2k mmr without midrange.
I got an idea.

"WoW Dev plays mage" but again
Back in the day when lightfang was good was the best meta

Praise the Sin'dorei! Anar'alah belore
Day 2 of asking why krip looks like he’s in pain while talking in the intros🎉😂
Has Kripp ever been over 1m YT subs?
No. He was at 950k+ during the peak of Hearthstone's popularity and has been losing subs daily since then. I think he lost 50k this year alone.
@@111Malefic It's too bad, Kripp is a great guy and an entertaining person
💪👍
Hearthstone has run its course long ago. We need something new to take up Kripps stream. Probably PoE2 when it releases. At least for a while.
That and he’s been talking about that bazaar game as well. I love kripp but man he’s been playing this game for so long and it’s been in such a terrible state for a while
I disagree, i really enjoy watching him play hearthstone.
I haven't played hearthstone for 6 years. But I still enjoy watching him.

Sucks at lightfang, says no one can win. Boring.

Nah, he's like 7-8k

@@jpanda79 Guess im lucky then cuz i really dont see the frogs at all.
