Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
@Hamste:
Congrats on the run, mate! Hopefully my draft ends up with a just as good result! :D
@neriractor:
Another vote for the feelsbadRifleman. Unless you want to risk commiting to synergy at your second pick, in which case the Shatter is better.
@Draft:
Sorry for the delay. After the update, I could only play today... #feelsbadman :(

Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
For the mage, faceless summoner. It's very efficient for its cost in the large majority of cases.
For warrior, that one is interesting. Silver Hand knight is the "best" card, micro machine is the most aggressive, and the initiate is a big question mark in my card evaluation right now.
Initially, I thought zealous initiate was awful, but the combination of ping and buff has consistently led to board advantage in my arena games with and again the card over the last couple couple days, and you don't have any 1-drops at the moment, which might make it good for you.
I think in a close pick here, I'd actually recommend the knight because it's still the best card.

Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
Micro Machine for maximum aggro.
Faceless Summoner for Mage.
I'll get my draft on some time tonight.

Kodo and contrarian Duplicate pick (mostly because I know my pick won't mean anything). Also, dammit, I forgot about this. Okay, this time for sure I will start my draft tonight.

Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
I think the warrior deck can get 7 wins. Though you're to some extent limited by how many folks you run into that have good healing.

Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
I'm calling 8 wins, and will update my draft once I get access to the computer (on the phone right now)

Crusader is better than silent knight in most cases.

PALADIN / ROGUE / DRUID
1. Journey Below / Stampeding Kodo / Ogre Ninja
-
Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
Can't choose. Tempted to say Journey Below, because it's new and shiny, and potentially pretty good. Also easy combo enabler. Either one of those minions are pretty good too, ninja for beefiness and kodo for stompiness.
Die has to do decide this for me... rolled spell. Journey below! Don't judge my methods!

Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
First pick of my new Arena run...
Blingtron 3000 / Emperor Thaurissan / Archmage Antonidas
I'm leaning towards Antonidas because I like it so much and (as long as I get enough cheap spells) it'll basically win me matches, but there's definitely a lot of value in Thaurissan if I were to pick him instead.
-
Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
Thaurissian isn't as cool when you don't have a deck designed to hold out for large hands. Mages will pick every spell they can get as it is. Go Antonidas.
And I'll second Mana Wyrm for neriractor. Class one-drops are just more classy than generic one-drops, even good ones. (Someone shoot me.)
In the meantime, Journey Below for me. Now's the time to experiment, and cheap Rogue spells are always a plus.
PALADIN / ROGUE / DRUID
1. Journey Below / Stampeding Kodo / Ogre Ninja
2. Tinker's Sharpsword Oil / Frost Elemental / Duskboar
Darn, no new cards in this pack.
-
Re: Hearthstone Arena 4: Practise Makes Perfect
Okay, let's see. Mana Wyrm for the mage mid-draft, and Antonidas for the first pick, so sexy, much mage.
For rogue, take Tinker's Sharpsword Oil. It's really strong, an excellent finisher, and the other cards present no competition for it.
Also, imo, stampeding kodo was the pick in that last one. There are lots of good deathrattle cards, but paying 1 extra mana for such a card makes it much worse than one of the best neutral rares in the game.
