Lol. People complaining about the premade decks need to read.

One week could feature premade, another week can feature constructed shenanigans. It just happens this week is premade. *shrugs*

wait a second, so I play with a pre-defined deck against some other random guy with a pre-defined deck. Get a pack for the first win and that is it??

No wait, there is a "win" counter. But again, that is it??

I have no idea why anyone would play more than let's say 3 games before getting bored. It feels exactly like the class challenges, but without getting any rewards for the (grinding) effort. Especially considering the opponent hardly passes the reverse-touring-test (it felt like playing a single-player game).

maybe there is more to it. For now, it's disappointing...

lost 3/3 as ragnaros, won 2/2 as nefarian. What were they thinking?

Yeah, unimpressed by this brawl so far. Nefarian starts too far ahead.

Rag wins lategames. Nefarian can't survive the lategame. I have won all my games with Rag. All you need is your imba earlygame cards 2 Mana 6/6 Taunts etc and it's an easy game. Mode is pretty boring but fun to play with friends. Against random people.. not so much. Still really dissappointed that there is no real rewards for playing this or being good at this.

Hope next week is better.

i really really dont understand this. its just a custom hero class challenge vs another guy. its just playing of random cards that dont "exist" usually.

also atleast this week seems really stupid cause there is a good chance nef just sprints ahead and has 30 dmg on the board by turn 4.

so they actually do all the work with custom cards and art and shit for a random "play op cards LOL!"? all the time they are lazy as fuck and dont care just to actually do something weekly now but for what..

life of lively to live to life of full life thx to shield battery

Psh, this Tavern Brawl pack is probably just gonna be another 40 dust...

... I love you so much right now, Tavern Brawl.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

How to Tavern Brawl: if you get Rag and they draw early Vael, just concede. Also if you don't draw the 6/6 taunt early, just concede.

But whatever, got my free pack and don't plan on touching this again until next week.

Nice! I picked up a Nat Pagle. Not quite as good as a golden Tirion..boring after the thrill wears off from the first few games unless you can trash talk with friends or something.

I had one game as Rag when they emptied their hand the turn after playing a Vaelastraz (sp?) and I killed them all with my minion that gives Corruption to all other minions. Sure, I was left on 3 health but I had a massive card advantage so nothing they played could survive a turn.

After a handful of games I am not sure I would agree that Nefarian is too strong. Two of my wins as Nefarian only happened because of cards from the hero power. In one game a Counterspell protected me from a brawl and in another my opponent was down to 2 health and had one of those 6/6 taunt minions on the board but still died to Eye for an Eye.

I doubt I will play much more of this brawl though. All my games so far came down to Nefarian winning early or losing late. Moreover, some cards are much powerful than others, which makes the luck of the draw incredibly important.

Well Nefarian isn't OP by far. It's roles that you have to understand. Nefarian is more suited to beeing hyper aggressive, while Rag is more suited to defend and stall until he gets his 8 dmg hero power.

Rag is brutal, but has anyone had Golemagg in their decks yet? 20/20.... 50 mana cost, costs 1 less for each dmg your hero has taken.

I think it's trickier than people are giving it credit for. Nefarian's hero power is extremely prone to variance. You can get some amazing draws (opponent got Nourish, f*** that 3 cards for free) but there's also a bunch of really mediocre or terrible cards. If you get a bad string of useless spells then you can fall way behind and then it's very easy to lose board control in the mid-game.

I do think if Nefarian draws well then he just stomps and its a very quick win. It seems to me that Ragnaros is best played by hero powering to make a 5/1 every turn rather than using your 2 or 3 drops on turn 2/3 to try to generate some card advantage while using up the weapon.

The AoE counters of the match are also extremely random. If nefarian has a good board-clearing Shadowflame than that's gg but Lucifron can easily 4-for-1 or more on the other hand. I had a game where I didn't draw into any Shadowflames and then I kind of just got crushed. Baron Geddon is a perfect counter to the 8-mana whelp flood. And Golemagg is kind of like a Rag win condition so I bet it makes sense to keep Rag at 21 health (sort of like how people manipulate handlock health for Molten Giant) so that he is unplayable until you're ready to burst down.

So it's probably not perfectly balanced but I think there is some subtler strategy that people are overlooking now. In my opinion it is quite fun and a great success for the first tavern brawl. It feels really good to be dropping these super overpowered cards and wreaking havoc.
