Ragnaros with Rivendare Hunter OTK + Nine Lives: https://imgur.com/a/ukMCBIB

Similar to other Rivendare Hunter OTKs, but you need to trigger the OTK a second time using Nine Lives.

Lorekeeper Polkelt will guarantee a Nine Lives draw after the Rivendare, but it might got delayed if you drew Master's Call first instead (I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have 2x Master's Call because of this). Also to be safe, need to make sure Rivendare didn't die before you have Nine Lives on hand, as Rivendare's deathrattle will reshuffle the deck and might prevent you from drawing Nine Lives on time.

Need to make sure that you can tank Ragnaros's 16-damage hero power before you use Nine Lives, but this is usually easy enough since it's easy to control his board.

Lord Nefarius with Rivendare + Zerek's Cloning Gallery OTK Priest: https://imgur.com/a/8WfMf4u

AAEBAa0GBNHBAo2CA/bWA8WlBQ3e0wKXhwP44wOZ6wOb6wOtigTBnwTwnwSKowT52wTqlAX+wQXt9wUAAA==

A deck with mostly spells. Creation Protocol made it consistent to tutor the Polkelt. And because Creation Protocol is a Discover effect, it allows me putting one more minion without ruining the tutor ability, so I use this minion slot to put Dragonslayer.

There's a small chance that the AI will get a random spell that ruins your combo (e.g. Silence effects). But this chance is very small overall and usually it's not worth anticipating it. If it's convenient, I'll play SW:D or The Light It Burns on my Rivendare immediately after I played him, but it's fine not doing this.

Tech card choices:

  • Devouring Plague: Useful spell to deal with his smaller minions (e.g. Twilight Whelp or Faerie Dragon), which might not get killed by other removals for bigger minions.
  • Not using Fight Over Me. A lot of the time, Fight Over Me doesn't let you kill two minions at once in this fight, it doesn't suit this boss's minions.

Omnotron with Demon Hunter: https://imgur.com/a/3Ihcgoc

AAEBAea5AwAP4LwD+dUDxd0D2d4DwvEDsPkDtp8EtKAEmLoEiZIFxfkFpIEGh5AGkZAGnJoGAAA=

Based on Gardenia's idea. Use Electron's effect to cast all the spells & draws to kill the enemy hero immediately. Lion's Frenzy is very good as it can easily get 10+ attack. Usually we'll mulligan for card draws or Lion's Frenzy.

Also preferable to kill Toxitron straight away with one of spells, so that the Toxitron doesn't kill Arcanatron which buffs our spells for later.

There's a small chance Omnotron will play his 2/5 Taunt minion, Fel'dorei Warband will spawn Rush minions which can be used to deal with the taunt.

Mindbender also have the same effect as Lion's Frenzy. But I never had issue drawing my weapon on time so I don't think I need this minion in my deck.

I've tried to do timing comparision of this versus the Gadgetzan Auctioneer Rogue deck, and this DH deck is faster overall.

Decided to actually post the new decks I have worked on for Heroic BRM to the forum!

Thaurissan - Holy Paladin AAEBAcOfAwLOhwOanwQOowLXBdwK3Qrt0gLWvgO/0QPJ6wPavQTknAWWjgbjjga8jwbTngYAAA==

  • Build a big minion with the holy spells guardians grace, blessing of authority, blessing of kings. Cards like dinosize or shroomscavate could also be used. Lifesteal buffs are also used to stay alive.
  • Cards that give divine shield can prevent Moira from dying to AOE effects, and the Coroner can be used to silence them all together later on.
  • Thekal for early giants.
  • Blessing of wisdom for draw from Moira, and justice of judgement secret to reduce Moira's damage output - could be replaced for humility.

Chromaggus - Giants Mage - AAEBAbTqAwTFBI/OA/PyBfibBg37BtwKgrQC3tMCzesC/awD8LADhLED1OwDjbIEndQEhJMFgJYFAAA=

  • Added molten giants, now there are 4 different giants in the deck. Focus can be put on playing the chromaggus spells so you can have a big swing turn later by playing several giants and Alex for a quick kill.
  • New cards in the form of Arcane Luminary and Tae'thelan Bloodwatcher for more ways to get rid of the chromaggus spells as fast as possible.

Atramedes - Odd Dude Paladin -AAEBAcOfAwKQB574Ag7sD+0Pl8EC08UCuMcC48sCx9MC3tMCteYCiLEDm80Dx6AEweIE/e4EAAA=

  • Atramedes actually trades into minions now so my old druid deck is not ideal anymore. Dude Paladin allows for a fast output of decent stated minions, which can also be given taunt through buffed Warhorse Trainer, Promotion and the now odd-costed Level Up!.

Nefarian - Linecracker Druid - AAEBAaa4AwKgzQLwiQMO6QGe0gLe0wK/8gKvogPwsAOEsQPVoASwpQSuwASd1ASu7wTxnQaaoAYAAA==

  • Was not a big fan of using a Warlock deck with the reliance of using self-damage cards to control board and draw cards. With there now being more AOE cards in the Neutral set than ever, this druid deck can be rather fast. Explosive Sheep, Depth Charge, Doomsayer, Street Sweeper and Dang-blasted Elemental are great counters to the hero power.
  • The nerf to Dew Process doesn't hinder the deck too much as Capture Coldtooth Mine and Pendant of Earth can be used to directly tutor the Linecracker. Branching paths and Ferocious Howl are used for general draw, the latter of which can be swapped out in favour of more aggressive draw if desired.

Decks I am swapping around due to the newer AI but are not different enough/not already covered by Srd_27 are:

  • OTK Rivendare Hunter w/ Ninelives - Ragnaros
  • Linecracker Druid - Rend Blackhand
  • Vaelastrasz - Token Druid (more like Irondeep Trogg Druid)
  • Victor Nefarius - OTK Rivendare Priest w/ Cloning Gallery
  • Omnotron - Burn Demon Hunter

Maloriak - Zilliax 3000 Deluxe OTK -AAEBAcLbBALK5wLHpAYOucMC6okD+YwEiaAEjrcEjtQEkNQEjuMEtPgFofsFhYIGuZEGh6AGnaIGAAED8rMGx6QG9LMGx6QG694Gx6QGAAA=

  • The New Zilliax Deluxe 3000 with the Power and Virus modules allows for Zilliax to double its attack every turn, starting from 6 attack due Maloriak's hero power. Over 3 turns its attack grows to 48, allowing you to one shot Maloriak. With the Virus Module, Zilliax becomes impossible for Maloriak to get rid off, with him having no AOE and polymorph and minions being blocked by stealth.
  • Timeline Accelerator can be used to tutor out Zilliax and play it early in some cases.
  • Warrior is best here for its many removal tools and armor gain, including many great AOE tools that only target enemies, making Zilliax safe to many - although some entire board AOEs are still needed.
  • Save Shieldbreaker for later into the game to counter Sludgebealcher and Voidwalkers on the lethal turn.

Hearthstone Loadless Timer

A loadless timer for Hearthstone has been made recently by Streetbackguy.

At the moment, we're still sorting the leaderboard by real time. But we're encouraging every runners to use the loadless timer. This allows an easier transition if one day we decided to shift into a loadless time leaderboa
