Announcer : It's gonna end very very soon... *game lasts 30 minutes more...

[@inspectorzenigata1]

That game was nuts.

[@HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHA]

This arena run was insane

[@timseldeslachts3643]

Everything that is wrong with and great about HS in one game

[@leofera1137]

crazy game, worthy of a final

[@dercannabist-infoaufklarun8938]

Absolutely; those were my thoughts, too. Worthy finale!

[@tidussuperquickhits7963]

HunterRace: Nani! Viper: I have board control for now HunterRace: Now i have board control! Viper: NANI!!!!

His name is Hunter Ace not Hunter Race

[@sSlemic]

This match was great for the viewers, but the amount of rng in this game is just over the roof; play a card and pray that you get 0.5% chance to survive.

[@Mazao210993]

Hearthstone is a fun game but I can't take it seriously because of the RNG

[@Jpeg-yz4xj]

Isnt RNG part of literally any card game ever? I mean you wont ever hear someone say "Well this game sucks cause its too random!" about Poker, will you?

[@Mazao210993]

@@Jpeg-yz4xj Yes, every card game has rng and that's part of the fun. I play magic the gathering and the only rng the game has is the moment you are drawing a card, the rest of the game is pure strategy. Same thing with poker, the only rng is the cards you are getting from the dealer and what the other players are holding, rest of the game is entirely how good you are in the game. In hearthstone, while I know that experienced players will always be better then newcomers, the game has much more rng then other tcg or poker. Rng in hearthstone is what makes the game fun and unpredictable but sometimes it's just too much. I play hearthstone from time too time but never to reach legend. I just can't take it as serious as other card games.

[@Jpeg-yz4xj]

@@Mazao210993 Well I agree with that, I just dont play Hearthstone at all and nothing I saw in this game looked like the RNG outweighed the fun, but I might just not get whats going on completely.

[@Aliens1337]

@@Jpeg-yz4xj RNG is fun when you're not on the receiving end. Otherwise, it feels unfair. You played better the whole match, you calculated the best moves, you played around your opponent's board clears and their best cards, you came close to winning in just 1 turn, but turns after turns, your opponent kept playing some bullshit card that had a 1/10 chance of keeping them in the game. You weren't able to win despite being the better player. Isn't that fun? Sure, every card game has that, but usually they are kept to a minimal, so that the game lean more on skills than luck. Hearthstone went the other direction and embraced luck over skills. It's fun for viewer to watch because you don't know how the match will go, but it's ridiculous to play because your skills as a player are going straight into the garbage bin.

Taking whole turn to drop a totem cause he had no playable cards. Gg

Amazingly epic! Fun stuff Blizzard, keep going with Hearthstone

Incredible one (Y) congratulations

[@noelcapillano3366]

This is the reason why we love hearthstone.

[@shoresy6927]

Greatest battle ever. Enjoyed

[@ACEKING26]

Wow this is a long and fun game love it

[@avocaldo3823]

Best Hearthstone game I’ve ever watched

[@dominik9826]

20:00 You can clearly see what he says: What the fu*k :D

[@user-my4wj3dy7f]

Probably more like -"Men vafaan" ^^

[@i3uster7]

That was the most insane game iv'e ever seen.

[@matthewdrown9122]

So a card completely changes all creatures in your deck and hand into random ones? Makes the rest of the game completely luck based? Yes very exciting

[@fractal_mind562]

Were you not entertained ?!

[@peterchui1964]

Yes, that card was designed mainly for the spectacle. But how is it functionally different from a Myra? The reasoning behind these cards is essentially to push one's luck when the aggression runs out of steam, and are 10% the reason why aggro decks are even viable. Without them, either all aggro matches would be decided before the late game, or the archetype straight up wouldn't exist. There are ways to lessen the randomization, but that would mean changing the game from the ground up. It's almost like developpers think things through beforehand.

[@lukesdewhurst]

"IMPRESSIVE, THEY DO NOT REQUIRE STRATEGY"

[@iamfilleg]

That was intense!

[@julienberenice1944]

Increíble, que locura de juego. 😮😱😵

[@chriswitters804]

The cards Rafaam produced were non-sense.

[@anthonycapo1998]

chris witters yeah. He didn’t really get much value from it.

[@elmerii619]

Viper would've won if he held more cards in hand for Rafaam rather than going all in on turn 5 and 6

[@rafaelmontagner9845]

This game was so tense the guy looked physically exausted at the end. Wow. I don't play HS anymore, didn't know more then half of those cards but still wow. That was cool.

[@vandoto1679]

This guy was so insane So Pro

[@HypnoAndOtter]

"Rafaam is going to decide the World Championship" = the problem with so much RNG in a nutshell. It discredits the skill of the players involved when everything is random.

[@nickheyer]

Rafaam has lost me so many games just do to the bad rng. Never rely on it, use it only as a backup.

[@vanburnburn]

Crazy game

[@xnick_uy]

Deathwing this, Deathwing that... but the commentators are forgetting about Archivist Elysiana.

[@TGSGrass]

I miss when forsen would meme his way through this game. PepeHands

[@jeroenvanvelzen]

My god the stress on hunterace's face -_-

[@2eggrollz]

I had the video muted but is it just me or did viper misplay turn 2 and 3? sacked abusive (2/1) instead of argent (1/1) on turn 2. then killed totem with juggler instead of argent on turn 3.

[@Jonius]

Are you watching from 2014? Abusive Sergeant is a 1/1 Also on Turn 3, Knife Juggler is given Rush by the Goblin Lackey.

[@thisisaker2114]

43:17 " see you next time. Banzaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiii"

i voted for Hunterace to win the final when the voting was available couple of weeks ago, but i havent gotten ant rewards yet

Whys it say repeatable this turn on the cards instead of echo?

[@monir1999]

Its a spell ^^

do you bring your own deck or is it given to you ?

[@A1GAZ1]

Ali Bomaye bring your own

[@wazwab5405]

Hearthstone needs a higher deck count.

When did rock paper scissor get a esports?

The hindsight of this commentators...

[@Kirbylini]

HS final: RNG vs RNG. RNG wins!

[@haya_to]

long long time ago...

[@89beans52]

Dude said the word 'like' 15 times answering three simple questions. Also why were the commentators asking what some of the cards do?

[@Turtlewax88]

Not everyone's speaking english at home buddy. That ''dude'' like you said is from Netherland so maybe chill out about how he's speaking.

[@PuKoh]

No idea what was going on. But it seems luck plays a large part in this game

[@Salted_Fysh]

You know something is wrong with your 'esport' when the final match of the world championship features a deck that is entirely reliant on rng.

[@alladeenmdfkr2255]

Still cant believe viper lost that game,i mean he had everything,especially after the azelina play

[@robinson990]

Azalina mvp dude

[@De4dpool]

Fitting that the world championship final should be decided by an rng clown fiesta.

[@inspectorzenigata1]

The rng clown fiesta lost...

[@Shootskas]

Yeah...the RNG is getting pretty bad recently. It's like watching a slot machine tournament.

[@gabrielsalazar4156]

Wena wena la final, Awante el hearthstone ctm!!!

[@ericrobbins3385]

This is why cards of that nature should not exist, in tournaments, or any other form except constructed. It’s just as bad when a random legendary appears in arena and one single card (that is gained by luck of the draw or spell) creates an immense disadvantage. I don’t know which is a more misguided company, supercell or blizzard.

[@frenlyyossi]

though it was 2 round.....

[@DavidRekhviashvili]

why the hell viper passed?

[@GothicSocietyClan]

awesome. i gonna try this both decks :D

[@Christoff070]

Go for it. You just need to spend about 300$ on each of them. Then if another 50 people do it that's a cool, $15,000 that blizzard have made, in one day, for doing nothing but create digital rng gobshite game, congrats on being another donkey!! Or if you don't want to pay, you could grind no-life for several of the best years of your life, take your pick!!

[@samnewman1570]

Who are these players? Oh i guess the RNG gods decides who wins ?

[@nTrylo]

is there a version of this video with the game sound/music but without the mind numbing commentary

[@tryfergoodra552]

RNG world championship was fun TO WATCH i must say . they could do tournaments from now on just by tossing a coin who gets right won

[@inthezoneeeechief]

what did he win ?

[@hblanche]

Casper won $250,000, Torben won $150,000.

[@inthezoneeeechief]

@@hblanche thats pretty good, especially cause its luck based

[@spongylord7131]

Hagatha early would have ruined this game. Like it does a lot of games.

[@Sliverappl]

In short, RNGstone

[@Tygredst]

he got lucky and still lost, so i guess hearthstone isn't that RNG-based after all

[@zahgle]

@@Tygredst but it is somewhat too much RNG-based for an Esport game. It's all rely on your luck.

[@sjf4405]

Well done blizzard!!!

[@torbergqvist8151]

No, there is not a Rafaam to resurrect, because it got Hexxed...

why viper did not healed to max with the 4 life repeat with dragon in field and healed all the minions

"First spell"

[@BrielleHater1224]

You must play face Hunter

[@chicknwing2742]

Gratz Hunterace!

[@B1G_Dave]

I'm sorry, but this game is getting out of hand (pun intended). They need to get rid of all the ridiculous potentially game ending cards and make the mana swings much much smaller.

[@Slblohme]

17:44

[@TheMasterMief]

5:28 didn't he miss face damage there?

[@DnZpcGaming]

nope. Knife Juggler gains rush, not charge.

[@Diuable]

wtf, hunterace waited the full turn just to drop a totem at 4:32...

[@suleymanbabak1973]

I would've done the same. By doing that he tricked the opponent into believing he had more options to play than just the lone one of dropping the totem. It was tactical mindgame.

[@ClassicalGuitarMan33]

How is this a great game when they go to the rope EVERY TURN?!?!??!

[@godthelux90]

I voted for Viper fck yeah

[@brodysdaddy]

Had to watch on mute, why does Blizzard want these kind of casters?

[@Viraltubs]

fallen!? cs:go do you play Hearthstone too??? (viper)

[@andrejbrabec4503]

Viper was the real winner here. Took it like a champ and didn’t look like a 12 years old emo kid just about to slit its wrists.

[@me_raxa]

that was not a game it was mentally torture.

[@LwNickV]

I don't understand why this game is so populer in terms of viewership and tournaments... Winning or losing literally LUCK lmao. Might aswel just flip coins...

[@djajax6603]

Play the game and u will see

[@kennethvillanueva4353]

Its frustrating and amazing at the same time. Its fun for the viewers cuz of the BS that happens sometimes and its entertaining.

[@Manysdugjohn]

both luck and skill. Like poker.

[@liquidrider]

@@Manysdugjohn In poker players all have equal opportunity to win with the process of elimination and all use the same deck

[@yuritasca7702]

Am I the only one that is upset about the fact that the game just lasted 30 minutes because his whole deck was full RNG?

[@jonasbugjerde3954]

Well, I prefer the games to last 30-50 mins, without as much RNG. Can't stand aggro or tempo who's sole aim is to play as little hearthstone as possible.

[@curtisgorner3072]

I don't play Hearthstone anymore KZbin algorithm wins, but wtf, Hunterace looks the opposite to enjoying himself, I can feel his anxiety oozing into me.

[@Pieter89]

The first time I saw him (2 years ago) during a tournament I wished he didn't win that tournament, because he didn't look like a real winner to me. However, after watching his games I thought by myself (because of the plays he made) that he might be (one of the) best player(s) in the world. I decided to choose him as my champion, and here it is... he is world champion 2019!

[@emoba_8381]

Viper didn't atk after using vargoth lightning storm? NANI

[@dookis2382]

vargoth casts lightning at the end of your turn so he couldn't attack after the lightning storm. He couldve traded over the 2/1 taunts to push 5 damage at the cost of his minions taking damage but it would've been pointless as the game was a war of attrition and hunterace still had healing left in his deck
