This week’s Tavern Brawl is A Friendly Game of Chess! You pilot either the White King or the Black King (Black goes second) and position your pieces to take down your opponent’s board and then take down the king!
Official Description for Tavern Brawl A Friendly Game of Chess
Challenge an opponent to a game of chess! Most of your pieces will automatically attack the minion (or minions) in front of them!
Each deck contains the following cards:
Colors white and black suit different playerstyles, for some its worse/better
Think of the strategy in this game as similar to real chess. Control the center of the board and do not lose material and you should win. Also, I would try to avoid using the hero power in favor of developing more pieces whenever possible.
How many of each card is there? I just defeated my opponent by finishing my turn with him on one health. Then he had run out of cards, so he took one damage and lost. I was surprised he had run out so fast. So it seems there are fewer cards than normal
Your deck is 15cards if i recall correctly
Indeed. You have 8 pawns, 2 towers, 2 Knights, 2bishops, and finally, 1 queen. Like real Chess
Im actually excited to play this tavern brawl. I played the Karazhan Chess game yesterday because I liked it a lot and was even hoping they made a tavern brawl based off it.
really? i dont even play white because black as a huge advantage
Not so great advantage. Dont’ play this brawl like a Hearthstone game. Think about chess, and you can win.
White has the advantage, I would say.
No its def black, if you play correctly your opponent cant get the double trade often enough to win. Coin is the killer
I have played and won as white for four straight games in a row I just got one drops to get past turn one and two and then just stall for fatigue since your opponent would die first due to drawing an additional card at the beginning
