Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft V3 - The Argent Tournament is GETTING IN HERE *Uhuhuhuh* - Games

Aviana will finally end the terror of the infinite value Wisps that has haunted us for years. Jokes aside, Blizzard really stepped up and saved my hype. :hypeisreal: The hype train keeps rolling and Aviana is driving!

[QUOTE=Cronos Dage;48384544]Aviana combos with thaurissan to make your minions cost 0 until she dies[/QUOTE] Except Aviana sets the cost of any minion to one. They [B]always[/B] cost one mana as long as she's alive and unsilenced.

[QUOTE=Damjen;48384739]Except Aviana sets the cost of any minion to one. They [B]always[/B] cost one mana as long as she's alive and unsilenced.[/QUOTE] Nope. [url]https://twitter.com/CM_Whirthun/status/628984499435642880[/url] [quote].@DisguisedToast Yes. Emperor T will make Aviana reduced minions cost zero. If Aviana is removed, their costs revert to Emperor T costs.[/quote] [quote].@Anxiomorph @DisguisedToast If Avianna comes into play after Emperor T, she makes minions cost 1. If Emperor T procs again, they cost zero.[/quote]

[QUOTE=lilguy;48384758]Nope. [url]https://twitter.com/CM_Whirthun/status/628984499435642880[/url][/QUOTE] Huh. That still requires both Emperor and Aviana to survive the round though.

[QUOTE=Damjen;48384780]Huh. That still requires both Emperor and Aviana to survive the round though.[/QUOTE] Just Aviana since Emperor already does his thing when the turn ends. But if Aviana does manage to survive... Man, running an Ancient of Lore to draw even more minions is going to be pretty fucking disgusting.

She's a biggun' with a crazy effect, though normally you'll probably only get one other biggun out of her before she gets nuked to high hell by all the removal spells ever. Unless you saved all your boosts as Ramp Druid.

Tbh, if you have Avianna, you'd most likely want to run Emperor Thaurissan as well. Lets think about it. You get out an Avianna, you get out an Ancient of War. It's like 12-mana worth of stats but eh, the 5/5 will most likely get decimated before you can get more value. Now, you get an 8-mana Avianna out, you get out [b]TWO[/b] Ancient of Wars. 19-mana worth, pretty much two turns worth of tempo composed into one. Or even a Ysera and Nefarian, or some other two huge minions. You don't even need to say "But then what if you got double discount?" because having a tempo swing like that is pretty much insta-win unless an Equality + Consecrate or Twisting Nether (which by the way I'm kinda expecting to see more play with one copy) gets pulled off. Not to mention, Avianna would be the only card you'd need to Thaurissan. Don't matter what else you got, those other discounts not gonna matter too much (unless you're playing a spell) when the minions are going to cost 1 anyway. :v:

And if it's anything like Cenarius or Ancient of War the game is pretty much over. Then there are things like coin, innervates or Emperor to milk even more value.

trump is doing some card analysis right now and it's legit to listen to he just said that mukla's champion is garbage (i agree)

[QUOTE=ironman17;48385077]Yes on all that, except for Emperor Thaurissan since he only reduces things by (1), while biggun with the wings sets the cost of all minions to (1).[/QUOTE] Look up, he apparently reduces cost of minions to 0 if Aviana survives the round. Even without that you can get her out for 8 (or once in a blue moon, even less) mana.

Mukla's Champion looks pretty terrible, but goddamn if that art and effect (bananas!) isn't gonna force me to try to make it work.

I love the beginnings of seasons. Huntards literally every game.

God, this is the worst tavern brawl yet All the top tier creatures are even better.. You basically shoehorn 2 undertakers, 2 exorcist, some silences, 2 shredders, pretty much every sticky minion and just hope you get a good hand Most boring tavern brawl so far, not very fun to play.

Pretty neat how between Fizzlebang and Aviana they've created ways for Control to have big tempo swings with their giant minions. I'm curious to see what some of the other Legendaries look like, though I'm not entirely sold on Eadric The Pure.

So, I'm playing tavern brawl- I'm at 8 health and this druid is at 10. I've got just enough damage to kill him except he's about to kill me this turn, with a swipe and a 6/6 body on the board. He's saying sorry and all that, and spamming every single card he has before finishing me off, and I'm like, "alright I won't concede, might as well let him have his fun" He kills my 2 drop just for kicks He needs the 6/6 to kill me He just wasted all his mana on pointless spells Target dummy comes out of the 2 drop

Target Dummy is the hero Hearthstone deserves.

playing arena against a priest fairly bad board, i play shielded minibot anyway he says "thank you", cabals it and goes full ham with some low cost creatures I knock the divine shield off, equality concentrate, 2 turns later, he plays his hand out and heals, i have lethal on board. i give him two thank yous and he goes full buttmad and ropes me for his final turn.

Also, if you hold innervate(s) in your hand you pretty much win the game.

The coin pretty much turns into a free minion as well.

[B]If[/B] there is nothing else as gamechanging as Aviana in TGT meta [B]might[/B] shift to everyone playing either control Druid or control Paladin to counter said control Druid.

I really dont care what the top decks are as long as Mage, warrior and hunter are all at the bottom of the ladder. Sick of seeing them

really hope priest is viable after TGT

So I was playing the brawl with a pretty full board, and this priest clears pretty much all of it. From the first minions I get some mechs, and when he kills my Ancient of Lore, it spawned Mirmiron's Head. He promptly got beat down.

Enemy kills my Shredder, Two Micro Machines pop out. I wonder what the chances of that are.

[QUOTE=IrishBandit;48390700]Enemy kills my Shredder, Two Micro Machines pop out. I wonder what the chances of that are.[/QUOTE] (1/however many 2 drops there are)*2

Wouldn't it be (1/#)^2? Anyway, (1/67)^2 = ~0.02% chance of getting a duplicate 2-drop. [b]Edit:[/b] [t]https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/4WDGYEA0JT001438801205385.jpg[/t] [b]EVERYONE'S A PALADIN![/b]
