the guts of some people, casting Leeroy and explosive trap when I have knife juggler on board, some hunter player just did it, his Leeroy suicided, then I cast defender of argus for the victory, explosive trap didnt save him lol
Forged a Secret Bow for Hunter, and another Keeper of the Grove for my slow to come Druid.
Also got two Hyenas now. Though it seems my week old Kolento Hunter build is now dated forā¦Miracle Hunter? I donāt even know what that looks like lol.
Dis meta movin 2fast4me.
Kolentoās deck:
Spoiler
Pretty similar to the old one, just utilizing the good 1/2 drops the class got with Naxx.
Oh, and Loatheb ofc. :v
Great card cycle ability with Buzzard+doggies or Buzzard with the low cost drops. Fun deck.
@reh I think i ran into you in arena a couple hours ago.
I was that paladin that played a turn 1 zombie chow and deathlord later in the match.
Iām actually pretty satisfied with deathlord so far, he defended my thicker minions and helped put my opponents on clock more often than not. Kinda a eh deck that somehow works.
Funny story. I managed to barely get someone into lethal range with Blessed Champion on my molten + a 8/8 frostwolf warlord and 2 2/2s on board with 1 hp left.
I donāt like Deathlord because all my minions have battlecries 
GGās Deathlord into Loatheb
Wasnāt me, sorry. You play on the US server, donāt you?
EU reporting in! :v
rehkt
Yeah iām US, seriously thought it was you. Was someone called rehz and it was close enough for me.
Also on the Gold Black Knight, keep it and I wonāt even DE it if i had the option to and wanted a better legendary. Even if all these decks with Sunwalkers go away, its a nice card to have in hand and using a Gold TBK on a turn 5 Earth Elemental would probably cause Shamans to instant concede. Though more often than not youāll ruin someones day by destroying their Senjins/Sunwalkers some poor Druidās Druid of the Claw/Ancient of war, whatever comes up with taunt.
If you are playing against a Paladin, you really shouldnāt show your Stallag early. I mean, now I know what Iām saving my FOLLOW THE RULES for
Man the amount of priests and hunters that are playing a badly constructed deck is too damn high. What irritates me though is that theyāre still winning with decision making that would rival a high school dropout that snorts cocaine off his erect dick on a daily basis.
Harrison Jones is looking reaaaaaaaaaaallllly appealing with all these trap hunters out there and control warriors here and there
Not getting to play Rogue until Trap hunter falls out of favor again
What if we did a mini naxx only tournament?
Only basic/Naxx cards allowedā¦ would that be interesting enough to bother?
I wish more classes had options to deal with traps. I donāt need straight removal, but at least give me a creature that reveals what they are or something.
*The only way to know a secret is, is to reveal it or through process of elimination figure out what it is not. There is only 1 card currently to negate secrets, Flare.
In order to use process of elimination you need to know what secrets are out there. Each class has a fixed cost for their secrets, so that will give you no information regarding what it is. The other thing to take into account is the game format and the regularity with which each secret could be expected.
If you are playing Constructed in āPlayā mode and your opponent uses 1-2 legendaries on you, it is safe to expect they have access to the rare and epic traps; but if they are playing primarily the basic cards it is more likely they may not have the rarer secrets.
If you are playing Arena, there are certain secrets you see more often than others. For example, most players rate Explosive Trap fairly highly as a Hunter and it is a common.
That said, there is also some basic logic you should use when testing a trap. If you are attacking a hunter, be intentional about which creature you attack with (knowing that the trap could be a freezing trap), this can sometimes be used to your benefit. If the trap does not trigger when you attack, then it is not Misdirection, Freezing, Explosive, or Snakeā¦ leaving only Snipe. So then be intentional about which creature you play next. Also, you would want to attack before you play a creature in almost every scenario because of the high probability of Explosive Trap or Misdirection.
3 classes have secrets; Hunter, Mage, & Paladin.
Hunter:
Snake Trap (epic) - trigger: attacking minion, effect: summon 3 1/1 snakes (beasts).
Explosive Trap (common) - trigger: attacking player, effect: deal 2 damage to all enemy Characters (includes you).
Freezing Trap (common) - trigger: any minion attacking, effect: return minion to hand & it costs +2 to play.
Snipe (common) - trigger: āPlayā a minion (not āSummonā, so for example it does not trigger from paladin/shaman abilities or imp master), effect: deal 4 damage to that minion.
Misdirection (rare) - trigger: When any character attacks a hero, instead he attacks another random character.*
I have been playign against people with the BEST NAMES EVER.

Justā¦just amazing.
The amount of trap hunter fotm players makes midrange hunter even more fun.
Way. More. Fun. Everyone jump on the hype train plz. Choo choo~ :v
I just had a thought. Since those within Legend rank are within a top percentile and a shit load of bots are inhabiting the Legend and upper ranks. If Blizzard were to do a massive banwave that takes out a good majority of those before the season ends, wouldnāt guys from rank 1-3~ or so get bumped up to legendary?
Would be hilarious to see peopleās reactions.
I hope Blizzard work out a way to handle the bots, itās really, really lame.
Made a warrior arena. 2 fiery war axes, 2 weapon masters, 2 deaths bite. At least one spiteful smith, but perhaps too many weapons? Couldnāt resist taking them though.
Iām logging all of my arena runs by class, number of wins and the rewards Iām getting, plus what Iāve opened in packs.
So far 7 arena runs has netted me -300 gold, so Iām not exactly infinite. Picked up a stampeding kodo which completes my mid range hunter deck, and a trash epic Iāll probably dust.
thatās probably fine considering the new Naxx cards, donāt beat yourself up about it.
Are any of you guys Hunteerx#xxxx?
