    Step 1: Mulligan into Duplicate and Heigan.
    Step 2: Don't play anything but hero power and Heigans.
    Step 3: Afk while Heigans nuke your opponent.

      +KarstenOkk except you cant play reno even at 10th turn and expect it to work, you can play alex at any turn when you acquire her.... 4 less mana - 4 mana alex. Most likely you wont be getting alex to play it on below 5 mana turn anyway so you can play it immediately after you acquire her and since KT has no heals he cant counter it where as rafaam can pull out healbots and the like.

    This tavern brawl was great, I loved it. More than in constructed or arena, I found myself confuddled by some of the possible plays I could make.
    But the most fun thing about this brawl was when you played as Rafaam. When you win as Rafaam you feel like a boss.
    Got the Malygos, Velen, 3dmg to all minions spell combo. 16 dmg to all enemies. This was a game where the Kel-Thuzad did not suck and did not play spiders.

    @skylar9046 8 лет назад +2

    Initially I hated playing as Rafaam. Although when I did get both Uncover Staff Pieces when taking the second turn, it was stupid how fast the Legendary Minions fall into place. Dr. Boom, Emperor Tharissan, Onyxia, and then even summoning the two heroes. Now that was kinda funny, seeing Rafaam and Kel'Thuzad in two places at the same time.

  • @TheSquareOnes
    @TheSquareOnes 8 лет назад +7

    The brawl was fairly balanced, especially if you play enough games for die rolls to even out. Rafaam is really dependent upon not getting complete garbage out of his hero power but Kel'Thuzad has literal dead cards in his deck that you never want to play unless you're completely desperate since they just make your hero power terrible. Some openings are obscene (heigen backed up by duplicate is just disgusting if they can't transform him) but those are exceptions.
    My win rate with both was about the same and I say that as someone that pulled about ten wisps out of the staff so it couldn't just have been luck.

    • @huk6249

      I'd take that over another 0-drop, at least it can usually soak up like 4-8 damage and be halfway decent tempo. That is pretty unlucky though.

  • @mrawesomexyz
    @mrawesomexyz 8 лет назад +5

    I don't get why people say Kel'Thuzad is so good. Probably because most people suck at the game. KT is easier to play, but it is very balanced if you play both classes well. If you're Rafaam, just don't waste your boards clears (you got 60 health so yes you can wait) and for God's sake don't play the staff piece into counterspell. I won about 10 out of 12 games, one loss each, probably 5 wins each as well

      zoroko123 True.

    • @MrMrtvozornik
      @MrMrtvozornik 8 лет назад +2

      +zoroko123 Bullshit. I played 10 as KT and 11 as Rafaam, won only 6 out of 11 as Rafaam and won ALL TEN OUT OF TEN as KT. Just don't play creeper, if you got coin counterspell you win on turn 3, if you get the unclean one just play him on turn 3 and never play anything else, keep reviving him and watch them kill your opponent for you. If you get a lot of board just play 7 mana guy and buff them out of proportions (my fav is when you have that lady bluxeslufheg and she has her horseman making her immune and then buffing her up to 5/12 while being immune) etc. KT has so many ways to win, only way for Rafaam to win is either by luck granted from RNG Gods about his legendaries or getting bunch of taunts (again, by luck, cause he has no in his deck) and retaining the board like Krip did in last game, that's the point when KT cant get back in the game. But let's be real here, even for you to get some taunts or proper legendaries, it's still RNG based and if KT just plays secret on turn 2 you have no choice but to upgrade your hero power.
      This was terribly unbalanced TB.

    • @SeeAndDreamify

    • @GamePlayMetal

      +Stefan Kojadinov
      Well, I won almost all my Rafaam games (9 out of 11 I think). Mulligan agressively for the spell that turns a minion into a viper, and the naga who transforms minions. Rafaam has more board control tools, and his upgraded hero power is insane (yes you need a bit of luck, but when using it each turn you're guaranteed to enventually get crazy legendaries for a ridicule cost). Also, a lot of people have no clue how to play KT (or Rafaam for that matter) making it easy to win. When they're coining mad scientist or creeper on turn 1, you know you'll have an easy win.

    • @MrMrtvozornik
      @MrMrtvozornik 8 лет назад

      Game Play - 8bit Heavy Metal Exactly like you have easy win when you get coin counterspell as KT. See, I am VERY good player and I started playing as soon as this TB came out, in first few hours, I SAW people who don't have idea how to play both, I saw my fair of share of Rafaams who have no idea what they are doing but KT's as well.
      But since I am very good player, KT is easier to win cause he is calm and steady, when both characters are equvaly good in HS, I think only way Rafaam can win is some cheesy legandary.
      Mad scientist and creeper really made me laugh every time I played as Rafaam, I gotta admit it.

  • @thomassynths
    @thomassynths 8 лет назад +3

    I'd argue that you should NEVER mulligan a staff piece. Kripp argues that doing so will open your odds for a non-staff piece because you always draw a piece if you dont have one. But in that case, it's a moot point because the card you get from a mull is random as well as your draw if you do mull. So far, it seems as if ditching the staff piece literally does nothing. That said, keeping the staff allows you to potentially draw the 2nd upgrade as your first draw. This little nudge is a win.

  • @peteele4030
    @peteele4030 8 лет назад +1

    How to win as Rafaam: Get super lucky by upgrading your hero power as soon as possible (while Kelthuzad has the typical heigan/impossible board to deal with), hero power into sneeds, next turn hero power into mal-ganis, while getting a kelthuzad from sneeds. Who has the Kelthuzad now? And it was still a ridiculously close game -.-
    This game takes so much skill.
    No seriously, all the Kelthuzad player needs to do is know what he's doing, which means never playing mad scientist or haunted creeper to destroy his hero power.

    Without Heigan and Gothic it may have been balanced.. But if you get either of those early you just dominate by permanent resurrecting them.
    This brawl should be dubbed: "NO I CAN NOT BE DEFEATED!"

  • @bwana666
    @bwana666 8 лет назад

    If you have a card that upgrades your hero power in your starting hand, it's possible to dra the second one at the first time. But the odds of it are low, since it seems to be like a regular draw.

    @DramakilzU 8 лет назад

    I don't blame the TB team for not putting in sounds for a number of cards (especially for Kel'Thuzad's minions). This matchup looked long to make and required a lot of balance testing that it justifies the small little problems.

  • @Arrakiz666
    @Arrakiz666 8 лет назад

    I love how the entire advanage Kel had in this brawl really boils down to two cards: haunted creeper and mad scientist. Yes ressurecting these minions might suck (arguably though, because getting repeated deathrattle of the scientist is agrevating all hell). Because essentially the tactic when you're Kel is to overwhelm the board. Raffam has clears but he can't keep clearing for ever and Kel'thuzad simply had better tmpo plays even despite the fact that a lot of Rafaam's clears are 0 mana. And this tempo adventage is entirely due to creeper and scientist and I think it's telling that those two are Nax minions. That is definitely the point when the game became such an incredible hurdle for control decks.

  • @TMOSP1
    @TMOSP1 8 лет назад

    My favourite part of this brawl was when you just played exclusively Gothik, and Rafaam has to choose between taking a bunch of 5 Attack swings every turn, or take a bunch of 5 and 4 attack swings every turn.
    The only way Rafaam can possibly win against this strategy is if he turns the first Gothik into a snake.

  • @samperry6262

    I played 9 games of tavern brawl. Here's how they went:
    Got Rafaam for the first 8 games and got completely destroyed every time. It wasn't even close. And even when it was close, it just wasn't even close.
    Then I finally get to play one game as Kel'Thuzad and just totally annihilate my opponent.
    Because balance.

    Yep, that's the strategy. I made my opponent concede after I revived two Thaddiuses :D and a bunch of stalaggs. But other time my openent killed me using same strategy with some card with deathrattle minion that deals damage to it's owner.

  • @Khoriel
    @Khoriel 8 лет назад

    Well the mulligan advice sounds a bit odd, there is no reason to mulligan the staff upgrade card. If you keep the staff upgrade in your hand, you have it when your turn starts and draw a random card. if you throw it out, you get a random card and draw it when your turn starts. So it's same thing.
    It might be even better to keep it because then you have a chance to draw the second upgrade on your first turn, so you can upgrade earlier.

  • @RaichuWizDom

    • @k4ffein
      @k4ffein 8 лет назад

      +RaichuWizDom how do you figure that hero power will be in the next adventure?

    • @RaichuWizDom
      @RaichuWizDom 8 лет назад

      They've been known to show previews of new mechanics through the Brawls, most notably Discover and the mini-generator Priests are getting. League of Explorers was Hearthstone's first original storyline, so to speak, and the Staff of Origination mechanic is easy enough to implement. We already have Golden Monkey, but that's a single use only. The Staff itself is another tool that can close out otherwise long games.
      The whole thing has the look and feel of something fair, but they fear might be overpowered in the actual game, so it's matched up against something grossly unfair. That, combined with the more obvious continuation of League's story and its interaction with TGT's mechanics, suggests to me that it'll get into the game for real at some point. But obviously, I've been wrong before. Dwarves still aren't their own tribe, and I've been calling that for a while. We'll know for sure around year's end.
      They might also just be testing the weighting of cards; like we'll get a card that shuffles something into your deck, but you're guaranteed to draw it in X amount of turns. That's how the staff pieces work now, there are other things you can add it to.

  • @LetalisLatrodectus
    @LetalisLatrodectus 8 лет назад

    Surely it doesn't matter to mulligan the hero power upgrade as Rafaam. You either keep it and get a random first draw or you mulligan it and get a random replacement and then draw the upgrade card anyway. It's exactly the same either way.

    The first time I played this brawl, I got Kel'Thuzad and coined out a Dark Cultist. I proceeded to lose because my hero power resurrected Dark Cultist 5 times in a row, then a 1/1 skeleton, then a Dark Cultist. I seriously thought the game had bugged out.

    I live in hope that one day Blizz will make a 'X vs. Y' Tavern Brawl where one of the combatants ISN'T clearly OP. Every single time it's been the case where one guy's on easy street, and the other guy has to pull off some insanely lucky strategy to win. I think the only one that was pretty evenly matched was the Bomb Bot vs. Annoy-o-tron Brawl.

  • @theBladden
    @theBladden 8 лет назад +1

    I don't see why you should mulligan the Staff Piece if you have it. You basically either draw a random card, or get a random card after mulligan before drawing. Either way, you'll draw 1 card and have a Staff Piece.

    • @italowizard
      @italowizard 8 лет назад

      +Patrik Axberg Pretty much. The only difference I can see is if the second staff piece is actually random and not guaranteed on a certain turn (as someone else claimed) then by mulliganning you can avoid ending up with two staff pieces on your first turn.

  • @snakesandapes1550
    @snakesandapes1550 8 лет назад

    About that "you're gonna draw it anyways' thing: it's not true
    I fought the unluckiest guy ever, he didn't have the upgrade up until turn 9
    No, he wasn't just keeping it in his hand, I know it because he played his entire hand on turn 8
    And then, once he finally got it... It got countered
    I feel for that poor guy, but it was funny as hell
