5 Consecrates , 2 Truesilver Champions , 3 Dark Iron Dwarfs , 2 Yetis . I think my deck was a bit too many 4 drops but oh well couldn't resist everytime one of those cards popped up. 1 Equality to make at least 1 100% board clear is in there too. . 3 Direwolf Alphas as support for the Recruit now that i look through the deck.

Nothing special no epic or legendary just tons of good all around cards just a bit 4 heavy.

But so far that hasn't been that much of a problem thanks to reeinforce i allways get something in the board and at 4 there's a very high chance of consecrating or truesilver championing to help clear up the board.

First Loss was to a Mage who had 4 fucking Venture.Co Mercs. and a buttload of fireballs.

0-3. Last game was absolutely brutal. Normal early game, trading minions back and forth, and then he plays tauren warrior vs. an empty board. I counter with fen creeper, and then he plays questing+redemption. Didn't draw tink or equality, instantly lost. Absolutely no chance of recovery vs. that with the deck I have. No way to do anything to the questing behind a taunt without equality hammer, no way to get through a taunt without killing it. Just a really poor draft IMO.

I think I shouldn't arena at any time past 2am. If you don't get a good draft you can just run into some sick stuff 3 games in a row and lose for free.

At least I still have about 250g stockpiled. Running into really good decks 3 games in a row with a somewhat below average draft happens I guess.

Yeah, don't play too late into the evening when only hardcore players are around.

I like playing around dinner time. I saw multiple concedes before lethal even.

I'm ashamed to say I only went 7-3. Basically, I ended up in quick succession against decks I couldn't manage. I definitely need more experience.

My first loss was against a druid who played 4 spawn minions by turn 4 (the murloc and that card that spawns a dragonling) and proceeded to use two savage roars and two power of the wild. I didn't draw any board clear and that was that. My second and third losses were to paladins. The first one had an ungodly number of blessings of kings which he used on a sunwalker of all things. Combined with an abysmal draw, I had to use a pyroblast on it and it only went downhill from there. For the last one, it turns out having 3 oozes isn't enough when your opponent has two swords of justice and two truesilver champions. He also spammed divine shield minions like there was no tomorrow.

Oh well. At least I got 150 gold out of the deal. If I had to critique my deck, I would say it needed badly some more card draw. In my three losses, I was quickly reduced to topdecking my solutions. My victories, at least, were no contest, apart from one game where I ended up killing my opponent with a pyro the turn before he would have killed me.

Manage to get 9 wins, though this deck felt like it should have gone 12. Two of the losses were to other Paladins who both completely wreaked me, two games were close (one win one loss) and the rest of the wins were rollovers. While repentance was a dead card most of the time it did manage to turn the tide vs an overconfident mage resulting in a close win.

Haven't played Priest much so figured I'd give it a go and it feels like it got a decent draft.

Decks like this can ruin my good mood when i have to play with my fireball/pyroblast - less deck .

@scFoX: Thx for your battlelog :D. I didnt consider card draw when i drooled over your draft, good to know for the future.

Last days I pretty much always lose my first game of the run by being rushed down. Most games I manage to stabilize around turn 5, but then I am already to low and die to 1-2 additional spells. Or even to 2-3 rounds of pure hunter hero ability, despite having full board control against my opponent topdecking.

I wanted to draft and go to sleep to play tomorow i think i'll make that decision tomorow any advice would be helpful ^^

You don't appear to have a high number of spells (2 wrath, swipe, starfall, starfire?) so.. Thalnos would be alright but not amazing. Your curve is reasonably light, so Cenarius is probably the strongest pick there anyway. But of course picking 2 Ysera is a rare opportunity indeed. I don't really think you can screw up that pick.

6 swipe druid draft. 3 Wraths also helped a lot. Was pretty much a freebie for going 12-0

4-3 woot. Shaman was ok. I dunno what was wrong with my play.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Lol 6 swipes. Freebie indeed. You could just use that all in the face and win anyway. Nice taunts, got card draw, easy wins

Went 12-2 with a mage (second 12-2 I've gotten, first was with a warrior); 0 Pyroblast, 0 Flamestrike, 2 Blizzard, 2 Fireball, 3 Frostbolt, 1 Polymorph.

Images of full draft and rewards in spoiler.

Some highlights:

vs Paladin: He summons an Alarm-o-Bot into my Mirror Entity. I already had a taunter on the field and nothing but 4-6 mana creatures in hand; got to play it again next turn (although it didn't survive the second time, maybe I was greedy).

vs Warlock: The warlock is at 4 life; he Life Taps for his LAST card, which he clearly knew was going to be Jaraxxus (I was maybe at about 10 life at the time). I somehow get him down to around 6-7 life and have a 4 attack minion; I top deck an Ironfur Grizzly, which prevents a lethal (Inferno and hero attack). He would have then died to fatigue. I don't think either of us believed I won that one.

vs Mage: First time I saw Nozdormu being played, which I sheeped so fast I didn't even have time to read its exact effect.

6-3 with most games being close. The biggest problem I had was that I relied too much on buffs and didn't have that strong of a late game. Anybody with a few big creatures made things really difficult. Had one comical game vs a mage where I got the Soulpriest out early and he had no hard removal so I kept Power Word: Shield'ing him while gaining board advantage.

Currently 3-0 with this, haven't played much shaman before, but I think I got strong picks:

Edit: Oh, wow... 3-3

1st loss:
vs Paladin, I have total board control all game. He just masses cards on hand. Inevitable concecration. I re-establish a good board position, eventually we get this situation:

I go full retard and decide to bloodlust and go for face, using rockbiter to kill his 3/3. I figured I should be able to finish him the next turn. He has 6 health left. Next couple of turns he plays a mountain giant and two guardian of kings. Easy GG for him :D Lesson learned, I'll never do that again! T_T

2nd loss:
Vs hunter, extremely close game. Again easy total board control all early game.. But he gets lethal the turn before I do and kills me.

3rd loss:
Mage with 3 flamestrikes, 2 blizzards, a couple of fireballs. Well on his way to 12-0.

I'm going to rage myself to death if I go sub 10 wins with this deck.


Went 10-3, some misplays on my part especially on the last game where I decided to go to face vs. a Paladin when he only had a bad minion on board, snowballed into 7 minion board paladin with 2x argent protectors. However, I would like to note after this run, there is such a thing as too many weapons.

I made a Video of my last arena fight, I have been playing for quite a bit, but I feel like I am not playing very good.
Especially the use of legendaries is uncommon to me, since I don't have many in my constructed.
Any feedback is welcome!
