There is apparently a secret level in this brawl as well. That could be the challenge. Other than that, yeah, you are playing against a somewhat normal zoolock deck

Not sure what the challenge is. Really simple brawl.

Challenge is breaking all 3 of The Wanderer's secrets and getting to The Secret Cow Level. The secrets aren't always the same, so the games play out differently (I think I ran into at least 5 diff ones). I went into the brawl totally blind and it took me maybe 2 games to tweak my deck enough. Ended up using a Mech N'Zoth Priest with SW

, Holy Nova, Potion of Madness and things got really, really easy haha.

So there is an upper limit on how large Jade Golems can grow? Not that I think many games will ever get there but still

This was a cool Brawl. Took Reno Priest into game one and got slaughtered once all 3 secrets where deployed because O never saved any and played into twisting nether. After that though 4 and 0. Jade druid allows you to reach turn limit killing cows hahaha

Finally got to be the Cow King myself. I don't think I'm going to try and have bot players become the Cow King, although I've seen reddit posts that it is indeed possible

I think this week's brawl is quite a fun brawl, although I can easily imagine it becoming boring if a deck or two is dominant. In about 10-15 games I did not see anybody else play Reno Jackson, which surprised me because I did encounter some aggro decks. (I did see one Kazakus so somebody realised the no duplicates rule always held but they never played Reno, probably because they never needed to.)

At first I tried a couple of Old Gods decks with C'Thun and N'Zoth and then tried jade shaman. For the last two games I returned to the infinite Fireballs approach. It takes a long time to set up because you need four Sorcerer's Apprentices and Antonidas in hand before you play Thaurissan, and finally you need a spell to give you the first Fireball. However, with Ice Block and Reno Jackson you are almost immortal. It is probably infuriating to play against but killing a pirate warrior and then an N'Zoth priest was a lot of fun for me.

Honestly I felt a bit frustrated that the rules weren't clearer in this brawl. The Reno Jackson is a great example. The deck is 10 cards, all of which are Peruse, so logic would indicate that Reno abilities would not work. That's probably why nobody tries it.

I understood the brawl to be "whenever you draw a card, discover one of the 10 cards instead." So my initial thought was Innervate, Moonfire, Claw, Living Roots, Wrath, Feral Rage, etc. with Gadgetzan Auctioneer. With an almost 1/3 chance of getting Innervate, you should be able to practically go infinite with Living Roots and/or Claw damage. But no.

In the end, I had a Priest quest, so I did

Pint-Size Potion, Shadow Word: Horror, Lightbomb, Excavated Evil, Mass Dispel for board control
Greater Healing Potion to stay alive, and
Holy Smite, Shadowbomber, Mind Blast, and Holy Fire to kill the opponent.

It was kind of fun. I didn't try it, but I imagine the cancer deck involves Flamewaker, Sorcerer's Apprentice, a bunch of cheap spells, and drawing 0 mana Peruse with Arcane Intellect.

I agree that the rules were unclear. I believed that there were 10 cards in your deck and instead of drawing a card at the start of a turn you would discover one instead. I was scared for my first mulligan in case those cards couldn't be discovered later. Similarly I put no card draw in the deck thinking it would take cards out of that discover pool.

My first and third games were against that mage deck (the middle was an aggro hunter). Not seen one since.

My deck;

I've had success with Power Overwhelming OTK, Exodia Mage, Evolve Shaman so far. Great brawl. My brother did some shenanigans with Deathlord which apparently worked but took forever.

I've had fun with Astral Communion, also with Miracle Rogue with a Reno. Gadgetzan with Coins Preps Conceal and Peruse gives pretty much unlimited ressources very fast, which you can then spend on Eviscerating the board and Face and building several gigantic Edwins. Going for a big Edwin in the first few turn also helps quite a bit.
I saw tons of Jade Druid on the opposing side, but it dind't feel all that strong.

This is a great brawl!

Best deck I made was Malchezaar's Imp Soulfire Dark Bargain Doomguard Silverware Golem Barnes Ragnaros the Firelord and Fist of Jaraxxus. Any two other cards like Reno or Tiny Knight of Evil or Hellfire or Twisting Nether work. Lots of flex spots. Sneed's Old Shredder was fun off of Barnes a few games.

Stonetusk Boar + Power Word: Tentacles + Divine Spirit + Inner Fire was fun too. Used Lightbomb and Dragonfire potion for board control. Reno to heal. You don't need the OTK as comboing more than once is pretty easy. For an OTK just add Shield and another Divine Spirit.

Another fun one is hero power abuse with Priest. Raza and Finley and Justicar and Garrison Commander + inspires. You can get the improved versions of all the hero powers and they are free. Winning is hard but Paletress can make things crazy. And you can have many of them.

This brawl is probably my favorite brawl ever. It is very fun and not as one-sides as (for example) Ragnaros vs. Nefarian

That brawl looked really promising until I played several games. First of all, they could have made much more than just 1 boss per class. Secondly, it's terribly imbalanced: Lady Naz'jar (I hope I got the name right) >> The White King >> everyone else. Shaman OP as always.
