This week’s Tavern Brawl is A Mammoth of a New Year! This is a co-op Tavern Brawl where you play with another player cooperatively. The first object is for you and your partner to hit the Hero Power button and create decorations for the party. The Hero Power is always the amount of mana you have, so if you spend some of it the cost goes down but will create less decorations. Your job is made more difficult by the Party Crashers that spawn on either side of the board each turn. You’ll want to balance playing minions on the board and pressing the button.
Once you’ve completed your decorating a Party Pinata boss card spawns, you need to bring down its health to 0 from 85 (similar to co-op brawls in the past). The Party Crashers are also buffed +2/+2 in this phase making your task harder. Your Hero Power changes to a two mana one called “Pelt” which deals two damage to the Party Pinata. Each time you hit the Pinata you have a chance to get a useful cards which can destroy one of the Party Crashers that spawns on the board, draw you cards, or heal you and your partner. Every other turn(?) Party Pinata will cast a spell that deals 2 damage to all minions but itself and the Party Crashers so be sure to use any low health minions before this happens!
Once you and your partner have dealt the 85 damage to the Party Pinata you will have succeeded!
Tips/Tricks
- Each player starts as either Druid or Rogue.
- Make sure to keep your partner alive, if one of you dies the game’s over!
- When you’ve hit the Pinata phase, make sure to keep at least one open spot on the board or you’ll lose all of your minions.
- Try to keep a balance of trading into Party Crashers and dealing damage to the big Pinata with your minions.
- Make sure to trade your minions if they get below two health so they don’t die to Pinata’s AOE spell.
- If you plan on hitting the Party Pinata with a minion make sure to do it before you play anything because you could get a card you need!
