Encounter at the Crossroads Chalkboard
General Information
- Earn a Classic card pack for your first win in this Brawl.
- This is the eighth time we see this Brawl.
- This is a PvP Brawl.
- Brawl’s format is Wild.
- It’s a random decks Brawl. Just pick a class and press play.
- It’s a classic, random Brawl. Your decks look kind of like Arena decks – they’re filled with random cards with a decent curve. You always get 15 Class cards and 15 Neutral cards.
- Just like Arena, there are no card limits – you can have more than 2 of the same card (more than 1 in case of Legendaries). But it doesn’t matter that much.
- Try to mulligan for low cost minions and play on the curve. Tempo is important, since your opponents shouldn’t have consistent board clears, so getting ahead on board is a good way to win. If you fail – just try again, some random decks are much better than the others.
I loved this brawl. As a f2p player, the ladder experience is excruciatingly painful for me without access to top tier decks. This brawl gives me a much welcomed change of pace and a chance to collect some quest gold without having to play the pain game (gain). I think this brawl should be the casual mode and the casual mode should be renamed ‘unranked’.
Seems there’s no actual limit on the number of duplicates either – I’m sure I drew 4 Deadly Forks (playing as Rogue obviously) in a game against a Mage last night. Which was actually reasonably effective – well, I won anyway.
Beyond the first free pack, are there any other rewards for this brawl?
In the regular tavern brawls, the reward (a pack, card back, etc.) is usually obtained after your first win. Beyond that, you’re playing for fun, bragging rights, whatever.
This is correct.
I don’t think it’s limited to only on per side of board, i’m always facing multiples of them (unlucky), with anyone using efects to ressurect it.
You can spawn additional beyond the first one, and evident don’t forget about the new card releases out of un’goro today on hearthstone twitch channel
I’ll clarify that more, and I’ll be liveblogging the stream!
It’s random as all hell, I actually won with a Priest just because I got Mukla’s Champion; +1 +1 to each Party Crasher, each turn. Oh and a couple of Onyx Bishops which resurrected Party Crashers.
Yes, it certainly is. The only thing you can choose is the hero, so select a class that inherently has lots of ways to deal with a fresh 3/5 Taunt every turn (starting turn 3, I think) without summoning sickness that only swings straight to the face. Silence works surprisingly well, as does hex/polymorph.
I think a bit has changed with this brawl. A card called party crasher shows up and starts hitting face.
I mentioned that above.
Ah my bad for not having faith! I just saw the change and came to the post without reading it.
No worries!
