Rarren: "I spent a lot of time making sure these cards seemed really realistic." First card: Pirate guy with no pirate tribe.

[@badwulff]

true, but to be absolutely fair, a number of his (actual HS-playing) guests forgot to check the tribe in the Do You Know Hearthstone episodes

[@jaxdestroyer]

The way I understood the Serenity card "story" is that they find peace of mind and walk away from the battlefield because they have no more fight left in them.

[@SanguineSidereal]

I think the flavor with Serenity destroying the minions is the same as Sword to Plowshares exiling creatures. It's not that they are getting so chill they die. It's that they get so chill that they just go home and stop fighting.

[@TheStorne]

but swords specifically doesn't kill the creature, just exiles it which represents a wide variety of things in magic. Serenity actually destroys them.

[@michaelhuerta7469]

I would see serenity as the ones with 0 attack have found serenity and choose to leave the battlefield and do no more harm

[@AmeagLuz]

That a good one! I was thing they ascent to Nirvana or something like that.

[@mariaszegedy6044]

since deathrattles are usually themed as the minion dying, i think this interpretation is only thematically consistent if it has a remove from game effect instead of a destruction effect. which would be really cool i think, because we don't see that mechanic often and it'd be interesting to see priests try to set it up to work in their favor, but maybe it'd be a little overpowered for a 4-mana priest soft board clear, idk.

[@wolter6102]

37:38 omg the LA Noire "Wrong Doubt" sound, on point

[@jaeusa160]

@4:10 Worgens aren't Beasts because they're Humanoid like the other significant sentient races. Worgen are specifically just magically cursed Humans, after all. Beast is largely reserved for the less sentient kind of beasts which Hunters could tame. On another funny lore note, Worgen are also traditionally immune to the Curse of Undeath resulting in major conflict between the groups, so there also won't normally be an Undead Worgen either. But both Hearthstone and WoW play a bit loose with that lore I'm sure, like Worgen Death Knights being allowed as characters. So (nerd voice) ackshually BOTH tribal tags on Dire Worgen were wrong! The first Kobold was also missing a Pirate tag. ;p

[@HewieSux]

I just love how blue deducts his answers with the story behind a card . very enjoyable to watch

[@m0002856]

“Are Worgen only in World of Warcraft” I believe the answer to that is yes. There was a like… 4 or 5 year time gap between Warcraft 3 and WoW coming out. In that time, Chris Metzen (the main Writer for the story) added a lot of things to the lore that were never before seen. They released some RPG stuff and some additional lore books after WC3 but before WoW that kinda set up some of the major stories. The Titans? Invented after WC3 but before WoW. The dragons each having their own unique colors and flights? Invented between the games. Worgen? Between the games I’m pretty sure. They were invented as an excuse to keep Gilneas (a major kingdom from Warcraft II) out of the game. It was like, “Why can’t we go to Gilneas? It’s RIGHT here!” “Oh, they built up a wall because of some rumored curse or something.”

[@DenkiRay]

Castle Nathria is a zone in Shadowlands, basically Purgatory. Kael'thas died in Burning Crusade, the very first expansion, and here we see him paying for his sins. That's why he's called "sin"-strider. Technically, is just his soul, so I guess that's the excuse Blizzard would tell you to not add the undead tag.

[@trentsims]

Actually magic does in fact have a mechanic that triggers when you draw the card that has it, it is called Miracle. Basically if the first card you draw on a turn is a card with Miracle, you can reveal that card, and may immediately cast it for its Miracle cost rather than its actual mana cost. This ignores the cards usual timing, so you can cast creatures and sorceries at instant speed, even on opponent's turns if I remember correct.

[@Will-hp5mb]

Well hold on there, Worgens WERE classified as beasts since you COULD skin them. But in cataclysm with the release of the worgen race, the skin-ability was removed. They are classified as humanoid but if you wanted to be REALLY specific they are beasts if we are talking Sons of Arugal. Most worgens have a human form and some are just the beast.

[@jdrama47_69]

27:23 Photographer Fizzle: _in shambles_

[@xBrokenMirror2010x]

The Four-tune Fortuner card would probably see play in wild in some aggro decks. It draws 4 mana WORTH of cards, so if you have 0 mana cards, it can draw them out for free randomly, and if your opponent's deck is heavier, they'll draw 1-2 cards and you'll draw 2-4 cards.

[@CrescentSickle]

I could've sworn that Magic had "When you draw this card, reveal it, do an effect" cards

[@PearlSnce]

Great video! Keep on keeping on rarrento gaming

[@Fledermausmann]

A) I really like these videos since I can sort of put them on in the background and it's like a funny podcast type of video. B) I'm pretty surprised by how good some of these custom cards are, in terms of art, that is. It's worth noting that a LOT of custom Hearthstone cards have actually become real cards in the past few years, with minor changes. C) The Fires of Zin-Azshari is absolutely useless in Constructed mode, even for the memes but was one of the best cards in Arena mode. It was an absolute first pick that could carry the game for you. Even if you used it early on!

[@crkTyphoon]

all tokens that can be generated have a mana cost associated with them, just in case a player finds a way to interact with it or future content may allow for that to happen. so that in case any of these cases happen, you do not end up stuck with a dead hand slot. Also Four-tune Fortuner would work really well in Mill-Rogue/-Druid. Because those decks looks for very specific low mana cards to throw out there while trying to draw their higher cost cards really late into the game. And as someone that used to play Mill in all it's beautiful variations I can tell you, there is not much more painful than drawing your only two 6 costs and your only 9 cost card very early and having 3 dead cards that you pulled through Oracle. Also, adding to that, this means that your opponent might potentially draw 4 1-Mana cards, increasing your chances of milling them, or a tin of 0 Mana cost cards, burning them up pretty quickly. At the same time also means, when playing this later into the game there are good chances vs specific decks, that mean you get a 4-Mana 4-4 down onto the board and get to draw, while your opponent might not draw at all. Also really good card for Arena too.

Castle Nathria is located in the Ravendreth zone of the Shadowlands, which is the afterlife of the warcraft universe.

Dormant is pretty close to either MTG's "Phased Out" or "Suspend"

[@HairCutsEmo]

Castle Nathria is the home of the namesake legendary of the expansion, Prince Renethal, and his father, Lord Denathrius. Striking a deal with the other prime legendary of the expansion, The Jailer, Lord Denathrius agreed to send all of the anima, the essence of all life in Azeroth, to the Maw in exchange for great and terrible power. This is also a raid in retail WoW where you get to kill Denathrius, and in this raid you get to meet Kael'Thas Sunstrider, marking his 3rd appearance as a boss in WoW PvE history. More lore in response.

[@HairCutsEmo]

The reason KTS is in Castle Nathria is because the Venthyr, the native residents of the realm of Venthyr and dreadlords, are the repenters of the Shadowlands. If you are filled with the sin of Pride and believe you superior to your fellow man, this is where you go to repent through torture and humbling, as you are now put into being the underling of the Venthyr. KTS, the Prince of Quel'thalas, and an arch mage of the great city of Dalaran, is filled with pride for his people and his own abilities, and not for no reason as he and his people are a strong, beautiful, and powerful people and KTS was the most powerful among them. He needed special care and humbling, so was sent straight to be supervised by the big man himself, Lord Denathrius, to make sure KTS learns humility. But as KTS was a powerful and strong soul, he had a great deal of anima in him, making it so he became an... anima cow to the Lord, and his sentence was to be harvested until drained, essentially sentenced to a permanent death. In the raid, you fight his tormentors, just a ragtag of Venthyrs with above average strength, and at certain intervals the shadow of KTS. I hope this was comprehensive enough!

[@HairCutsEmo]

Also exactly correct, KTSinstrider would not be considered to be Undead ad he is NOT reanimated, he is simply dead, essence, a spirit.
