Its harder this time but doable. But you need a decent opponent. Done it 2x now. My tips: Mage player should try to get Spell Damage minions on the board and Druid Player should support with the tools they give you and build a board up also for FoN+ Savage Roar Combo. Don´t be selfish and Heal each other. Don´t trade small 1/1 minions and let them stay for targets.
ALSO IMPORTANT NOTE: If you play with a friend it doesn´t count as win and get NO reward. Did this too and had to play with a random player afterwards. Don´t know if its a bug tough.

Play Lorewalker Cho and Millhouse Manastorm in the same turn. Funny stuff.

i only played one game so this is obviously not representative but i actually got the impression that it was really easy this time around. my ally (who admittedly seemed to know what he was doing) and me were never in any danger of dying, and disposed of Mechazod fairly quickly. we did manage to mirror entity a moonkin, and a few turns later my ally played Millhouse to which i responded with Thalnos, Pyroblast, Fireball, Arcane Blast with both Moonkins still on the board so that sure helped.

Even more fun when your opponent has Mirror Image in play. Too bad there's a ten card hand limit.

And if you managed to have Troggzor the Earthinator already on board, that'd probably result in a OTK.

Every time I play Millhouse on curve my opponent concedes, what gives?

Did it first attempt, managed to get enough spellpower on board to make my opponent's Arcane Blast do 16 damage each. Healed him so he survived with 1 hp in the end, and for the killing blow played Lorewalker Cho, mage gave me a Pyroblast and it saved us one crucial turn to win.

It was okay, but somewhat less enjoyable than the first time this boss was on rotation.

god.. why do I always get retarded allies?

I'm druid and first we build up like 10 spell damage, then I even put down lorewalker cho while we both have about 7 cards.
and what does my opponent do? he casts 0 spells, and sends all his minions to death. at the end of his turn Mechazod destroys Cho..
one round later he uses spells to kill my minions! omfg

2nd game..I'm mage, opponent is druid. I already gave him 3 mana crystals but he plays no minions until he has 9 mana. .. next turn he dies from Mechazod, although I healed him as good as I could

people really seem to not read the damn description of the tavern brawl and don't even bother to read the minion descriptions

I even try to communicate with my ally by emoting "oops" and hovering key minions like lorewalker cho and Mechazod, but it doesn't help. Win 5 Tavern Brawls Quest ftl

Normally I hate the Brawls but this week I really enjoyed my one match : ) Rather thoughtlessly I put together a priest deck with micro machines, lightwardens, healingwell, shadowboxer, blessing of thingy, tournament medic etc etc. Afraid of strong inspire stuff I added a few silences instead of aoe which would've been better against the zoo I played but still took it.

Played hunter deck against a Mech Rogue. Opponent almost had lethal but Ogre Ninja missed and attacked one of my Wolfriders, giving me lethal with Eaglehorn Bow + Jungle Panther + hero power. Well SMOrced.

Can't say I'm a fan of this one. Not many decisions to be made in game and from what I've seen deck construction is pretty straightforward. I'm sure some interesting counter decks and the like can be made but honestly it's not engaging when the game for the most part consists of literally only SMOrc if you're not removing minions with spells.

My experience has been mostly against slight variations of tempo mage, with Arcane Armor and Counterspell and possibly Ice Barrier. Played against a few face rush decks and a Patron warrior. I have not seen any actual deck construction. For what it's worth, I tried a battlecry shaman and Inner Fire priest.

went 2-0 with a variation of tempo mage (as mentioned above it did include Animated Armor but I won both my games before I played either of them :/), then switched to priest with AoE and lots of healing and healing synergy cards and went 5-3.
in total 7-3

I enjoyed this brawl, faced very varied opponent including hunter, warlock, warrior, mage, rogue, shaman and a priest mirror
I don't think I played against any druids or paladins though.

Aggro/Murloc Shaman. It's very easy to get an insane start. Winning by turn 5 80% of my games I think.

Well, KT seems way stronger than Rafaam. By the time he gets his damn staff pieces up he is basically dead.

I'm mostly bugged by the lack of polish in this brawl. Only a few of the boss minions say their lines when they're played, they don't even say anything when you attack with them! It felt very strange, I was a bit disappointed. Also the power level of the boss cards is much lower than the Blackrock boss brawl.

I've played it 3 times, all 3 times I got Rafaam. I definitely feel that KT is much more straightforward to play, as all his stuff is basically just value minions. Spend your mana and you're doing it right.

However, while Rafaam is much harder to play, he is quite strong. KT has no board clears as far as I know, so as Rafaam you just need to chill and set up for the first several turns. You can take 40 or more damage, it's fine. Then you play the 0 mana "deal 5 to everything card" and play as much stuff as you can. Once you have the board, you never let go, and you win.

Anyway I went 2-1 with Rafaam. He's definitely harder to play, but overall I had a ton of fun actually.
