"Tess replacement?" "Golden Tess" is such a good interaction

[@remliqa]

What interaction?

[@Tottosmile]

@@remliqa the interaction between Kibler and chat

[@TentaCole]

Amet changing Ysera from a 4/12 to a 4/1 was probably the best thing I’ve seen in this expansion so far. 😂

[@lordofudead]

If I saw my opponent shuffle 18 Tess’s into their deck in 1 turn.....yeah, I’d concede to.

[@dadeee7776]

Nezara it’s happened to me and his next 8 draws were Tess I was going fine but I just thought fuck this not dealing with it

[@alexandermartinez1318]

That's like 18 yogga but better 🤣

[@iliya1933]

Like, I know that shuffling all those Tess’ into the deck is a great win condition, but against quest priest, I think quest Rogue really shines when it doesn’t go face like at all. By the end of Kibler’s turn seven, the board state and card advantage was in pretty much the exact same spot it would have been had he never gone face, except the priest had a completed quest that was enabled by the deathrattles he would have played anyway, and those effects were only enabled because kibler attacked face against a deck that runs on your opponent attacking face. If this was a tempo or aggro deck it would make more sense, but the quest weapon is a much better board control tool over time than anything the priest has without the quest (because otherwise priest can only play mediocre minions). Kibler could have just waited until the priest had only nine or so cards left in his deck and no completed quest and just decided to concede because there was no way he was going to get enough value out of the quest to win at that point. No Tess would have been required.

[@Zaluskowsky]

intresting way of thinking this through. cool

[@iliya1933]

@@arnaudthouvenot929 That definitely is true. But I think that's just on this specific priest player and is not really an argument for Kibler's strategy or against mine. Like I said, if Kibler just didn't attack face, the game would have been the exact same by turn seven, just without his opponent's hero power being upgraded from a 0/2 buff to a 3/3 or 3/6 buff If the priest had instead played Injured Blademasters and Tolvirs instead of the deathrattle healing taunts, then he only makes it part of the way to quest completion and Kibler still maintains board control in pretty much the same way, but in this case he doesn't have the threat of facing down large minions that will trade into multiple of his. And because Rogue usually needs to run multiple resources (backstabs, vendettas, rush or on board minions, and hero power swings) into one big minion, eventually, if the Priest plays it right, they'll likely run down Rogue without Tess' help because they'll have summoned a number of big minions. But to address specifically what you said, this Priest's playing in general was suspect, as the hero power often was part of an answer to Kibler's board. He had multiple chances to use his hero power to take value trades and remain in an advantageous board state going into Kibler's turn, but he instead decided to just use multiple answers from hand. You'd think that one would take any opportunity they could to use a strong, tempo hero power that they specifically built their deck around achieving, and this priest straight up chose not to do that on so many occasions (they also played Ysera into a 1-health Amet, which, sure, it's still early in the expansion's life and we need to forgive people for not always taking into account what the new cards do, but I still think it calls Kibler's opponent's playing into question). But DESPITE all that, despite the fact that the priest didn't really use the hero power that invested into unlocking by running other cards specifically designed to unlock it and utilize it to its maximum potential, a 3/3 or 3/6 buff hero power is always better than a 0/2 one, so why would you let your opponent get it for free if you had the choice? Against future quest priest opponents, I think any deck will just have a better time against Priest when it doesn't let it complete the quest for free like what happened here. And this version of quest rogue doesn't have much quick aggression and is better at dealing consistent damage over time through board control, so why try to slowly kill an opponent that specifically tries to heal up that kind of damage and gets rewarded for doing so? And if Kibler had drawn Togwaggle's Scheme near the end of his deck instead of finding it in his opening hand, his chances of Tess winning him the game would have been greatly lowered. That's my overall opinion, anyway.

[@Raxerm]

Smart move, I concede.

[@vizzybee7143]

It’s funny because at this point I can’t even listen to classical music without thinking of Kibler

Anyone else noticed the Priest Hero Power suddenly appearing over the daggers really quick there? 3:32

[@balintfurmann5560]

Any ideas how I could slip deadly poisons into the deck? Seems pretty good with mirage blades and blade flurry, but all these cards seem important in the deck...

[@alexandermartinez1318]

I play more of a mid rang quest rogue but thanks to this i think i know what i need to beat control warrior, togwaggle's scheme.

[@KalevalaWarrior]

Is anyone else missing the 60fps qualities in the latest few videos or is it just me? The slightly choppy movement detracts from the viewing experience.

[@TheForhekset]

I hope tess is acually good now, after many attempts to make her work in the past I gave up.

[@jeffbiz9568]

The quest weapon art is kinda really basic. Wish it looked cooler for being a special weapon.

Its not a special weapon though it’s a multitude of special weapons...that are all very boring looking

Horrific misplays by that Priest :(

[@kasra38s]

Has anyone played this deck?! I know it looks good in these videos, but have you guys tried it?! (Im asking cuz i might build it)

[@bsnoguera]

I'm trying it right now. It feels powerful, but I just played three games at rank 9. It's not much evidence, but I won the three games without ever getting to play Tess and without much luck in the burglaries.

[@lunaticeagle3007]

i play quest rogue not exactly this list but yes it is quite good with good rng u can win against everyone ( had tess cast 2 flamestrike each time i summed her )

[@wermagst]

You'll probably lose horribly to Murloc Paladin but might have a fair chance vs the slower decks.

[@bsnoguera]

@@wermagst actually murloc paladin is a little too predictable. The weapon + backstabs, vendetas and the rush cards deal with the early game, and you can clear after tip the scales with Flurry. Basically if you find and save Flurry you win. But token druid is a nightmare.

[@DencaVT]

Kasra Sb I run it with Heistbaron Tog and Edwin it's pretty fun and good. Gotta get that quest done early or you're a bit screwed though

[@TheForhekset]

I've been playing druid quest whuch is pretty op it stomps rogue. The weakness of druid though is control warrior which is really strong.

[@entropie-3622]

I think it depends on how you build the deck, the druid can have enough board flooding cards to outlast the aoe of most control warriors but it will lose pretty hard against more agressive decks at that point, in particular opponents who can snowball in the early- to midgame (murlocks, giantmage, mech hunter, token druid). Though no matter how you build it, it is true that rogue tends to be a good matchup due to limited early pressure and aoe removal options.

[@Crawdithe98]

What deck ISN'T weak to Control Warrior, though? Mirror Control Warrior?

[@videogamer678]

Quest Pally stomps Control Warrior pretty hard. All the sticky high threat Deathrattles outlast their removal options.

[@mohabahmed2587]

@@Crawdithe98 Any deck that has decent mid-late game survivability and lots of value generation beats control warrior. Cyclone mage, quest shaman, quest paladin, tess rogue, plot twist warlock (If they can avoid fatigue with elekk)

[@cakdhuro9945]

Rogue Decks got easiest quest than others

[@ALonelyEskimo]

Druid and Shaman are relatively easy as well and give much better rewards. Druid has the disadvantage that it is slow, but Rogue can also be slow if you low roll on what you get. Shaman just plays the game normally and gets rewarded. Not arguing, just my opinion.

[@weegete]

@@ALonelyEskimo exactly shaman quest directly synergizes with what the deck is already doing anyways it's insane. It'd be like making the druid quest "play 2 choose 1 cards, reward: passive: your choose 1 cards have their effects combined"

[@Xylarxcode]

Man, what the hell was Kibler's opponent doing this game? He made so many silly mistakes. Not just playing Ysera when there was a 1 health Amet in play, but just in general really weak plays from this priest. Felt like he didn't know what the hell he was doing.

[@williamjohnson5022]

Especially at the beginning of a new expansion there's a lot of people who're playing with cards they're unfamiliar with. A lot of the "skill" involved in any deck building game is putting in the reps to really understand all your card interactions on a deep level. Hence, the players who are not amazing but put the time in look kind of crap right at the beginning of a league. TL;DR Bless his heart he tried

[@Arrakiz666]

If you're gonna be playing a deck that draws through itself with Auctioneers that fast, why would you play Tess instead of Mogu Cultists and Tak? If your plan is to draw your entire deck you might as well draw into cards that win you the game...

[@ProfX501]

Because Mogu Cultists are garbage?

[@Arrakiz666]

@@ProfX501 Tess on many occassions is going to be garbage too.

[@ProfX501]

Arrakiz666 The deck doesn’t revolve around ‘drawing through itself with Auctioneers’. It revolves around value. Even if you’re forced into an early Tess, the stolen card archetype generates extra value, Mogu Cultist does the exact opposite. If you’re going to run a stolen card deck, then you have no reason not to play Tess, and even less reason to play Mogu. I don’t know what rank you are if you think Mogu comes anywhere near the consistency of Tess
